  Chapter 72 Details that no one paid attention to

   At one o'clock in the afternoon, Mr. Kato's good move made Lao Shi fall into a long test. Mr. Kato played very fast. He played this move almost without thinking when he got up. What about the great chess master Shi? He didn't give Li Xiangping any instructions until 1:40 pm.

   In Li Xiangping's impression, this seems to be the first time that Lao Shi has thought for such a long time. It can be seen that this move really embarrassed him.

   So what's so good about Mr. Kato's move? Just when Shi Daqisheng took the long test, a group of young chess players headed by Gu Dali and Kong Erjie were also talking about this move in a training room on the second floor of the Chinese Chess Academy.

  Since only 4 Chinese chess players entered the top 16, and of course young chess players do not pay more attention to the final result than the management, so today, Li Xiangping's chess has finally been studied.

After about 20 minutes of collective research, Kong Erjie, one of the "National Youth Three Musketeers", spoke first. Kong Er also passed the "Samsung Cup" pre-selection, but he was defeated in the first round. Li Jiao's life:

   "Interesting, this move is very interesting, what should Black do now? It doesn't seem like there is any particularly good way to do it, right?"

   Hearing what Kong Erjie said, Hu Yaoyu, another member of the "National Youth Three Musketeers", gave him a sideways glance:

   "This chess can't be called interesting. It should be said that this chess is very difficult to deal with. It is a chess move that reflects the skill very much. After seeing such a chess move, I finally understand why Dali lost the day before yesterday."

When these words came out, everyone looked at Gu Dali. Gu Dali smiled embarrassedly. After being eliminated by Kato the day before yesterday, he was made fun of by his friends. This is actually the reason why everyone here is paying attention to this game of chess. one.

   In order to divert his attention or to resolve the embarrassment, Gu Dali also began to talk about chess:

   "Yeah, I've learned a move today. I didn't expect to be able to get rid of the big picture so easily. It's such a simple move that actually makes White in a dilemma, so what should I do at this time?"

   There is a key word in Gu Dali's words, that is, "shallow elimination of big appearance", indeed, this is the theme of the current situation.

In fact, thinking about it is also true, just look at Mr. Kato's opening moves, and it's "Worry-free Corner" and "Xusetsu's Tip". These are all very solid and ground-based moves. So the chess game has progressed to this point, forming a typical pattern. "Terrain confrontation" pattern is a very normal thing.

For example, in this game of chess today, black chess occupies the upper right and lower left corners, confirming that the real sky has taken the lead, while white chess is centered on the "star position" in the lower right corner, and a big appearance appears faintly towards the middle abdomen. Just looking at the scale of this pattern, it is enough to compete with all blacks on the ground, so now, it is time for black to consider dealing with this pattern.

   And this move by Mr. Kato recently is the first step against the big appearance of White.

Now it can be considered as a good move, because the point he chose is neither high nor low, neither deep nor shallow, it seems to be just right, and more importantly, the point he chose seems quite tricky, allowing White to play Difficulty, but to be honest, in Go, if you make a move that can make your opponent "difficult", then most of the time, such a move can be called "good".

   Such "good chess" can be divided into two degrees. If you make a move that can make your opponent unable to find an answer at all, then such a good chess can be called a "smart move".

On the other hand, although your move can make your opponent find a good match, no matter how your opponent responds, it seems that it is difficult to find a satisfactory change. Then your move can be called "a good move with charm." ".

And Mr. Kato's move just now is such a "good move with charm". Although this kind of move is not as destructive as a "smart move", it is also unbearable for high-level players. The higher the level, the more intolerable the opponent is. This kind of chess. It is precisely because of this reason that Shi Daqi is taking a long examination, Gu Dali, Kong Erjie and the others are mainly discussing this move and studying White's countermeasures.

   After these people studied for a long time, everyone's opinions were finally concentrated on the two options. It must be mentioned that everyone here is still not satisfied with these two proposals. Everyone agreed that no matter which plan White implements, the final result is still unsatisfactory. However, there is no way. These two plans are already the best responses that everyone can come up with. As for other ways, they are worse than these two plans.

   Interestingly, these two schemes were first proposed by Gu Dali and Kong Erjie respectively, and these two schemes also reflect their chess style and characteristics.

   A few years later, Gu Dali was affectionately called "the strongest amateur chess player in history" by chess fans. It must be admitted that only from the plan he chose today, he was still "worthy" of this title. Because he believed that facing such a move as Mr. Kato, it was absolutely impossible to give in, and he had to give the most severe attack. Therefore, his main plan was "Take the Head", and use the most straightforward method to start an attack on Black.

  Why do you say that Gu Dali's method is a bit "amateur"? This is mainly because Mr. Kato's superficial move is not deep, and it is not far from his base camp. Therefore, if White wants to attack Black, he must first forcibly cut off the piece and the base camp. connection.

Since it is "forcibly cut off", in this process, White will inevitably need to play some vulgar moves, and "vulgar moves" are usually the patent of amateur chess players, so from this point of view, Gu Dali This program does have the suspicion of "amateur".

  Since this is the case, then Gu Dali's plan will of course attract the opposition of Kong Erjie, who is known as the "most professional professional chess player" in later generations.

  Kong Erjie's main plan is to "jump the square" in one step.

Well, this move is indeed "professional", because this move is the so-called "point of shape", and it is also the biggest flaw in White's big shape. Kong Erjie thinks that White must first put his own Make up the chess form, and then slowly deal with black again.

  It must be admitted that these two schemes have their own advantages and disadvantages. Gu Dali’s intention is to lead the situation into urgent and chaotic warfare, looking forward to finding opportunities in the following melee.

   And what are the disadvantages of this solution? In fact, Gu Dali himself knew that this kind of battle is actually relatively reluctant. If there is a slight mistake, the situation of white chess will collapse immediately, just because today is not Gu Dali sitting on it and playing chess, and he does not need to be responsible, then On the premise that he couldn't find a better way to do it, he only "forced" it in the research room.

   And Kong Erjie's plan is actually to choose patience, choose himself to stabilize his position first, so that he can find a way to stretch the front while ensuring that he does not collapse, and then look forward to finding opportunities in the long-distance front.

As for the shortcomings of this plan, Kong Erjie is also well aware of it. The most obvious point is that if White chooses to play this way, Black will get a first move in his next move. Flatten the white chess

   After researching for a while, because everyone could not find a better way to play, they stopped the research. At about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Dali said with a smile:

   "Okay, now let's see what the masters of "Exquisite Art" will do"

   Just at this moment, the latest chess manual came, and after seeing the actual choice of white chess, Kong Erjie was proud:

   "Haha everyone, look, the masters of "Exquisite Art" and I thought of going together"

   Hearing what Kong Erjie said, everyone laughed, including Gu Dali. It's just that no one noticed at this time:

   Although the actual play is similar to Kong Erjie's plan as a whole, there is a slight difference, that is, Shi Daqisheng made an exchange in another part before making the "jump" move.

   A very inconspicuous looking detail, a seemingly irrelevant exchange!

   This is the only difference between the two plans.

  Since the step "jumping" was taken, it can be foreseen that although the current situation of White is slightly worse, this should be a long game, and the decision of the outcome should be a long time later.

   So at this time, everyone temporarily put down this chess game and began to pay attention to other chess games.

   In the 4 games that Chinese players participated in today, there were two games between China and Japan, and two games between China and Korea. In addition to Li Xiangping's game, the other game is Chang Hao VS Yamada Kisansei, and the other two games are South Korea, one of which is Yu Bin vs. Xu Fengzhu, and the other is Wang Lei vs. Liu Changhe.

   Objectively speaking, or in the minds of everyone in this era, except for Chang Hao's game, the other 3 games are considered to be wind chess.

Li Xiangping VS Kato Masao has nothing to say, not to mention that Mr. Kato is a veteran and super first-class, in fact, Li Xiangping will definitely be considered a wind chess against any opponent, even if he just won Lao Cao, even if Gu Dali Kong Erjie they called him "The Great Master".

  Wang Lei VS Liu Changhe, although it is China's third against South Korea's third, but there is no doubt that everyone thinks that Wang Lei is playing chess.

  Yu Bin VS Xu Fengzhu, this is actually the most evenly matched game, but considering Xu Fengzhu's record against Chinese players is surprisingly good, abnormally good, Yu Bin is considered to be at a disadvantage.

   Among the 4 chess games, only Chang Hao's chess game is considered the upper hand in everyone's mind, so everyone starts from that chess game.

   It was just after 3 p.m., and the faces of the Chinese chess players who had watched Chang Hao's chess game were not looking good.

   "What's going on, Brother Chang, why is he in such a bad state today?"

  No one noticed who said this, but after hearing this, everyone nodded silently in their hearts.

   At 4 pm, all the Chinese chess players looked even more ugly, because apart from Chang Hao's game, the other two games in the Korean War were also not optimistic, very not optimistic!

   "Will Chinese chess players be wiped out today?"

  When someone came up with this idea, at this moment, these young chess players finally remembered the game of Li Xiangping.

   "Come on, come on, let's see what the master of "Extraordinary Arts" has done with this chess!"

   Hearing Gu Dali's "Huh!", Kong Erjie asked him:

   "What's the matter with Vigor?"

   "Duel? Isn't this a game of kung fu? How did this happen? Where did it come from?"
