   Chapter 384 The correct way to prepare for Xiao Li

After the "LG Cup" semi-final with Da Li, the time has come to the second half of November 2003, and the whole season has also entered the most critical stage. The transcript is mainly for the next two months.

   For Li Xiangping personally, the next direction and goals seem to have suddenly become very clear. ​​​

  The "Samsung Cup" semi-final against Xiao Li in late November.

  Before the Spring Festival next year, the "LG Cup" finals will be against Xiao Li in early February.

There is no doubt that during this period, Li Xiangping still needs to participate in the final of the "Chunlan Cup" against Chang Hao, as well as this year's "Nongxin Cup", etc., but the most important thing must be these two games. . So after returning to China, he quickly started targeted preparations.

   "Hehe Ding'an brother, I suddenly remembered now, it seems that you have never lost to this person before, right? Now I don't know if I can continue your record."

"Hehe, I haven't lost against him, but it's just because I don't have many fights with this person. Ding'an thinks this doesn't mean anything. Xiaoyou Xiangping, you need to know that this person is still very strong. Before the competition, you, It's better to think less about these useless things."

"Ha ha."

  Li Xiangping accepted the kindness of his plug-in, but did not explain too much.

To say that Li Xiangping is a playboy, but he is not the kind of **** who doesn't know what to call it. He is actually quite self-aware. Although he has a strong desire to win for the next two games, he also has a strong desire to win. I won't be arrogant and think about "continuing the record" until now.

   Therefore, what he just said was purely out of a momentary feeling:

   Because he suddenly remembered that since he crossed over, the opponent who has played the most times in the official competition so far is Da Li. The number of matches against Da Li far exceeds the number of matches against Gu Dali, a native chess player.

   And after playing these two chess games with Xiao Li, there is no doubt that the number of games played with Xiao Li will soon jump to the second place.

The record of playing against foreign chess players even exceeds that of domestic chess players, which is of course very rare in the Go world. To be honest, this is because of Li Xiangping's special situation. He rarely participates in domestic competitions. He has the plug-in bonus of Lao Shi, which made him stand on a high starting point from the beginning, and this is the special situation.

   As for why these two? It's certainly not surprising if you think back to what happened in real history.

   In real history, although Da Li's last championship took place in 2005, he still had a "Julianya" after that. He participated in the finals of the World Series for the last time, and it was even 10 years later in 2013.

   And at that time, Da Li was actually 38 years old!

   As for Xiao Li, let alone, why did he participate in the "Man-Machine War" in the first season? That is of course because he was still very active at the time, and was considered by the mainstream media to be the best performing human chess player in the last 10 years, so he was qualified to represent the human race.

   Li Xiangping just thought of this. He thought that if these two continued to be in good condition, then his struggle with them would last at least 10 years, so he felt emotional with his own plug-in.

   And Shi Daqisheng obviously doesn't know Li Xiangping's current feelings. As a responsible plug-in, he is still concerned about the "host"'s preparations:

   "Little friend Xiangping, I'm a little strange now. Regarding the previous Goryeo chess player, you also analyzed and studied a lot of his chess records, but with this one, why don't you do the same?"

   Hearing this question, Li Xiangping smiled, and he happily said to Lao Shi:

   "Hehe Ding'an brother, this time you have to listen to me. Let me tell you, according to my experience, for this person's preparations, it may not be useful to study his chess records."

   "Oh, why is that?"

"It's very simple, because of the characteristics of this person's chess style, Ding'an brother, you and I all know that the most powerful thing about this person is those unpredictable actual combat methods. To be honest, his actual combat methods are actually many. They can't stand up to scrutiny, so it's useless to study his chess records, does Brother Ding'an agree?"

   Lao Shi was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then he smiled and said, "Hehe, that's true."

  Yes, of course Li Xiangping thinks what he just said makes sense. Regarding Xiao Li's chess style, or his "zombie flow", Li Xiangping's personal understanding is this:

In fact, many of his moves are not good moves in themselves, and the use of these moves is to induce opponents to play worse moves. This is the uniqueness of "zombie flow", and it is also a small Li is based on the biggest magic weapon in the world chess world.

   Then, for such a style of chess, it is of course useless to study his chess repertoire. Because the usual playing score research is definitely different from the actual combat atmosphere.

If Li Xiangping and Lao Shi are now quietly studying Xiao Li's chess behind closed doors, then the most likely scenario is that they will discover his chess. Neither is that right either.

  Well, if Li Xiangping is not a traveler, he may be led into the ditch by Xiao Li, and most of them will feel that his chess is not good enough, and it should not be a problem to win such a person by himself.

   "Since it's useless to play notation, how do you think Xiaoyou Xiangping should prepare for the battle?"

Li Xiangping smiled and said: "Actually, I always thought that Brother Ding'an's meticulous and rigorous chess game is the most suitable to deal with this person. Since I can't be as exhaustive as you are, then of course I will. You can only try to maintain your own state, especially to ensure your familiarity and sensitivity to chess, this is the correct way to prepare for this battle."

   "Hehe, that's what I said, how can Xiaoyou Xiangping maintain his familiarity and sensitivity with chess?"

Li Xiangping smiled and said: "Hehe, I said Ding'an brother, but what happened to you today? Why is there a posture of breaking the casserole and asking to the end, I am a layman, of course there is no particularly good way, but I know it." The fist does not leave the hand, and the song does not leave the mouth.” When I said that, I think for me and other chess players, this should be the only way to maintain the state.”

   "Hahaha" Lao Shi laughed.

The semi-finals of the "Samsung Cup" are actually held in late November, and it is not a few days away. Therefore, in the next few days of preparations, Li Xiangping did not make other technical preparations, and the focus was on "maintaining state". and expand.

  Fortunately, given Li Xiangping's current surrounding environment, if he wants to achieve "the fist does not leave the hand, and the song does not leave the mouth", then of course there is no problem.

   Day 2, Chinese Chess Academy.

   "Haha, the master of the art, why are you here today? You are a rare visitor now, how about you, or you will show me a plate today."

   On the night of the third day, the old TOM gaming website, at about 7:30 pm, the entire gaming platform suddenly burst into commotion:

"Ha, rubbed my eyes, I read it right? Isn't this Li Xiangping's vest? He hasn't been here for a while, and he has started. He actually started training with others as soon as he came. The vast majority of people who eat melons Ladies and gentlemen, please keep in line now and prepare to line up to watch.”

   A few days passed quickly, and in late November, Li Xiangping was about to go to South Korea again to participate in the first chess game with Li Shishi.

   Two days before the official game, it was Lao Nie who found Li Xiangping:

   "Ha, Xiangping, are you ready? This time, I took the initiative to invite Ying to stand up for you."

  Li Xiangping smiled and said, "Haha, that's great, thank you Teacher Nie."

   On the second day, Li Xiangping set off again and continued to work hard for a world champion that belongs to him completely.
