Chapter 308: group of death

   Chapter 308 Group of Death

  On August 18th, at the Capital International Airport, Li Xiangping and other members of the Chinese delegation were preparing to go to South Korea to participate in the 7th "Samsung Cup" competition.

   "Li Xiangping, what did you put down yesterday? Well, it stinks! It really stinks."

   Up to now, there are no people who can criticize Li Xiangping. However, it is only Lao Nie who can say it so ugly, so straightforward, and so ruthless in public.

Well, Lao Nie is the head of the Chinese delegation this time, and the game of chess he said was actually a round of armor that just ended the day before. Li Xiangping was once again defeated by Gu Dali, and was double-killed this season. .

   This is the third game that Li Xiangping has lost in this year's Weijia, and it is also the first official game he has lost in nearly 4 months since April.

   Although he hasn't played many games in the past few months, but after all, it is considered a wave of winning streaks to be terminated, right? Therefore, during the boring time of waiting for the plane, Lao Nie took it out to talk about something.

   After listening to Lao Nie's words, the other chess players snickered, and Li Xiangping laughed himself, and he also specially looked at Gu Dali 鈥��

   He and 6 other Chinese chess players passed this year's qualifiers, together with Ma Xiaofei and Li Xiangping, the champion and runner-up of the previous competition, forming the Chinese team's lineup for this competition.

   "Yeah, I'm also a little puzzled now. Why is it that I can't win Gu Ge? Teacher Nie, please give me a pulse. Where do you think I lost yesterday?"

"What's the pulse? Yesterday you were completely messed up, um, how do you say you? There's really nothing to say, is that what you played yesterday called chess, it's floating, I think you are really floating now. "

  Li Xiangping laughed, and didn't take Old Nie's words too seriously. To be honest, Li Xiangping still had some ideas about the game of chess yesterday.

Didn't he think that not long ago, he could completely suppress Li Shishi with strength within 170 hands, so he wanted to try it on Gu Dali. Since these two are known as "peerless double pride", Li Xiang After weighing that one, I want to weigh this one again.

However, when he weighed it, he found that it was not the case at all. It was not that Gu Dali's strength was greater than Xiao Li's, but the force of the two of them was completely different. Compared with Xiao Li's sword, Gu Dali's chess Relatively positive, Li Xiangping believes that Gu Dali's chess may also be more in line with chess logic.

   It is precisely because of this difference in style that there are two completely different results. Li Xiangping also fought against Gu Dali head-on yesterday, but he was carrying it, but he found that he could not take advantage of it. In a hurry, he began to win and lose frequently. Come", so that's it, after playing less than 200 moves, he was defeated in a hurry.

"Well, to deal with someone like Dali, it seems that you really can't fight him, at least you can't fight him when the battle is obviously unreasonable. If you want to deal with him like this, it seems that you have to take another way. What is the best way? Is it suitable? There are two ready-made ones, one is to learn Xiao Li's suave way, and the other is to learn from Chen Yaoyue. His "Gulley Flow" seems to have a good effect on Gu Dali. Well, it seems that for a while, it will also be You can practice and cultivate these evil demons in Go. Although these things are not the right way, there is no harm in practicing after all. Besides, isn’t it often said in martial arts novels that “from the devil to the Tao”, in case I am also from the devil to the Tao what?"

  Well, Li Xiangping was thinking about "going from the devil to the Tao", the flight took off, and the group arrived in Seoul, South Korea after 5 pm that day.

  The "Samsung Cup" is the World Go game that likes to play tricks the most. In this session, the organizers have played a new trick, which is to add a "group match".

   In other words, the 32 participating chess players are divided into 8 groups, each with 4 chess players. The group stage adopts the "double-elimination" rule, and the top 2 players in the group enter the top 16.

Compared with the ordinary single-elimination system, Li Xiangping thinks that there is nothing else. The biggest feature of this competition system is actually to increase the probability of encountering players from the same country. In the case of a group of 4 people, the probability of encountering a national chess player is greatly increased.

   "Haha Xiangping, how do I feel that this competition system is specifically for you."

   "Against me? Teacher Ma, what do you mean?"

   Ma Xiaofei said with a smile: "Don't everyone say that you are an amateur in civil war, so you understand the competition system like this."

Li Xiangping smiled when he heard it, and Lao Nie and other Chinese chess players also laughed. Everyone knows that this is of course just a joke. Although Koreans are extremely poor in the field of competition, but such a mentally handicapped thing, then Li Xiangping I believe they still can't do it, at least the Korean Go world can't do it.

   After arriving in Korea, everyone did not rest too much, and the group draw was held that night.

  Because this is the first time to adopt this kind of competition, the grouping situation is relatively simple and rude. The top 8 of the previous session were directly divided into 8 groups and served as the seed players of the 8 groups, while the other participating players were randomly drawn.

   Ma Xiaofei was the defending champion, so he was placed in the first group, while Li Xiangping was the last runner-up, but he was placed in the last group, the H group.

  Because he didn't have to go up to draw lots, after the group lottery started, Li Xiangping didn't care about the others, mainly to see who would be in a group with him.

   After a while, the first chess player to draw the word "H" appeared, Japan's Hane Naoki Kudan.

Well, Li Xiangping thinks this is a good draw. After all, although Hane Jiuduan has also been a "chess master" in Japan, he may be the weakest "chess master", and he is often in the international arena like another Yamashita Keigo. Chinese food delivery, to put it bluntly, Japanese Go has accumulated hundreds of years of character, but in fact it was defeated by a few of them.

   After a while, the second chess player who entered the "H" group appeared, and saw Li Xiangping frown slightly, because he is the Korean "God of Death" Park Yongxun 9 dan.

Of course, Li Xiangping is not afraid of him, mainly because in real history, this person broke into the final of this "Samsung Cup", although he lost to Zhao Zhixun in the end, and became Lao Zhao's second world champion. , Dapu has become a great background, but if he can make it to the finals, at least it means that he is in good shape recently, right?

   If you see Da Pu or frown slightly, then when he sees the last one, Li Xiangping will really become "brow frowned".

   Ancient strong.

   The last lot of this Nima "H" group was actually drawn by Gu Dali.

   Team of Death! Li Xiangping lamented in his heart.

  Well, if Li Xiangping was just pretending to be emotional when the lottery was drawn, then when the game officially started the next day, Li Xiangping really smelled the breath of "death".

   In the first round of the group stage on the second day, Li Xiangping played against Hane Naoki. Li Xiangping thought that this should be the weakest opponent in the group stage, and Hane 9 dan was a weak chicken.

   However, this weak chicken was in a brave state today, pressing Li Xiangping all the way to fight. On the other hand, Li Xiangping was completely sleepwalking during the game. Just after 4 o'clock in the afternoon, he lost in confusion.

   There is no doubt that the biggest upset in this tournament has already appeared. Feather, a weak chicken, has become the focus of the audience in one fell swoop. At the same time, this is also the first time that Li Xiangping has been defeated by a Japanese chess player, which made him embarrassed after the game.

   He should be ashamed if he is ashamed, but Ma Xiaofei, this guy, has to say sarcastic words after the game:

"Hey, I said Xiangping, I think the Koreans should regret it now. If you knew you would lose, wouldn't it be better to use the original single defeat? Now, come up with a group stage, which will give Your salted fish has a chance to turn over."

Li Xiangping has no time to deal with Ma Xiaofei's jokes, because this group match is played one set a day, and he will immediately consider dealing with Park Yongxun. He lost to Gu Dali in the first round, and fell into the same defeat as himself. Group.

   These two days have something to do during the day, so I can only do one update.
