Chapter 165 Three people watch chess
  Qian Qianyi is also quite proficient in Go, and he happily praised Guo Bailing: "If you surpass my little friend's chess skills, it's enough to say that you are extraordinary. I've probably never lost a single thing since I came out of the mountain, right?"

Guo Bailing was an honest boy. He nodded and said, "I have only been away from my hometown for a few months. I have never lost to anyone in chess. But I don't know if there are masters in the world, but I have never met them."

Feng Yuanzhong shook his head and said: "It's too modest, it's too modest..." He stuttered a little, and it was easy for him to get embarrassed when speaking long sentences, so he turned these three words upside down and said them desperately.

Qian Qianyi also cheered and exclaimed: "No one in the world can do it!" He was quite envious in his words.

Qian Qianyi is a descendant of the Qian family of Wu Yue. His ancestor is the famous King Qian Liu of Wu. His family is extremely prominent, and celebrities have appeared in large numbers since the Song Dynasty.

Qian Qianyi's grandfather and uncle all passed the Jinshi examination, but his father Qian Shiyang failed to pass the imperial examination in his life, so his father placed all his hopes on him.

Now Qian Qianyi hopes day and night that he can become famous all over the world and bring glory to the family in the future. At least, he will not let future generations of Wuyue Qian family ignore his name when talking about family celebrities.

At this time, Qian Qianyi couldn't help but think about how wonderful it would be if he were over [-] years old.

Although being over [-] years old is not famous for his studies, at the age of thirteen he already has the strength of a national player to fight against all the unbeatable players in the world, and he is just around the corner to become famous all over the world.

When Guo Bailing heard this, he quickly became humble: "I have also met masters. When I was in Fuzhou, I met Mr. Jianyang. He fought with me until the middle of the game and I was almost defeated. There were fireworks everywhere on the chess board. Later, I relied on my desperate calculations to regain the victory."

"If Mr. Jianyang were a few years younger and calculated clearly, I would probably be defeated by his hands."

——Wang Wenlong felt that he was no match for Guo Bailing, but Guo Bailing himself did not think so. Later, he repeatedly reviewed the game with Wang Wenlong, and was surprised to find that Wang Wenlong completely suppressed him during the layout stage. Several times If Wang Wenlong could seize the opportunity, his big dragon would have been killed long ago.

So at this time, Guo Bailing only thought that Wang Wenlong's calculation ability was not strong enough, so he won by chance. If Wang Wenlong were a few years younger, he would definitely win.

Of course, this is just a wish to reach [-] years old. The actual situation is that no matter how young Wang Wenlong is, he cannot beat him.

Guo Bailing respected Wang Wenlong very much in his heart, thinking that he was the first powerful master he had encountered since leaving home.

Qian Qianyi and Feng Yuanzhong were both surprised when they heard this, "Could it be Mr. Jingguan Wang Jianyang who wrote "Tianyan Lun"?"

"That's the gentleman."

Both of them loved Go and had heard of Wang Wenlong's name. They quickly asked about the process of the chess game. Guo Bailing took out the chessboard he brought and demonstrated it. After watching it from beginning to end, they found that Wang Wenlong's layout ability was indeed far superior. Over [-] years old.

This kind of thinking did not exist in Go in this era. They didn't understand how Wang Wenlong managed to beat a hundred-year-old player step by step. They just felt that Wang Wenlong was awesome.

Feng Yuanzhong did not hesitate to praise and said: "Mr. Jianyang is indeed a great talent. I don't know how he managed to control the entire situation."

Qian Qianyi was smarter. He slightly understood the concept of overall awareness from the game between the two, and thought about it and said: "Mr. Jingguan, this seems to be another way of playing Go. If there is a pedigree of the game, it can be analyzed. "

In the past few days, Guo Bailing often thought about Wang Wenlong's chess game when he was traveling and writing scores. After hearing Qian Qianyi's words, he suddenly said: "When I left Fuzhou, Mr. Jianyang gave me a volume of overseas chess games as a gift. I haven’t had time to take it apart on the way, maybe there’s such a wonderful trick inside.”

Feng Yuanzhong and Qian Qianyi's eyes lit up when they heard this. Qian Qianyi said quickly: "I wonder if the chess record is still around?" So he unpacked his luggage and quickly found the letter written by Wang Wenlong.

Qian Qianyi and Feng Yuanzhong were both observant of etiquette, so they turned their backs slightly to read his personal letters.

After Bai Ling opened the letter and looked through it to make sure that it contained only chess records and no personal information, the three of them looked at the chess records together.

The first page is Wang Wenlong's introduction to later generations of Go rules and notation methods, followed by chess scores, and Wang Wenlong's explanation next to each move.

It won't work without explanation. The thinking of Go in this era is still too backward. Wang Wenlong knows many of AlphaGo's masterful moves that he would not be able to recognize even if he is over [-] years old without explanation.

At this time, the three of them looked at the chess record. The difference in rules was not a problem for the three of them who were familiar with Go. They could understand it after a little thought.

As for the notation method, Qian Qianyi directly took a chessboard, copied the English letters and Arabic numerals on a small piece of paper, dipped some water in it and pasted it on the edge of the chessboard, and everyone faced it.

"The first hand is in the column of circles and the row of ears..."

Guo Bailing placed the chess piece on Q3 according to the diagram and said with a smile: "It turns out to be the star position."

The chess piece that the three of them started to recover from in the first game was Alpha Dog's most famous star position three and three. The opening method was also in line with the way people started with four star positions at this time.

Next, Guo Bailing and Qian Qianyi coordinated the chess moves, while Feng Yuanzhong read out Wang Wenlong's explanation of each move.

He read slowly: "The star position is a barren land. The star position guards the corner. Only three moves of chess can guard a corner. It cannot be defended cleanly and the efficiency is extremely low... After the first four moves have occupied the four empty corners, it should be Building a big picture, or keeping a small eye and hanging a corner, is the most efficient way to play chess..."

"This is an interesting statement..."

When Wang Wenlong was writing, he wanted to give Bai Ling enough shock, so the first game of chess was a catastrophic battle, a big opening and a big change in the overall situation. This was a terrifying chess game that made Wang Wenlong sweat-soaked at the time, no matter what Whether it was the intensity of the battle or the degree of control of the situation, it completely surpassed the highest level of human chess players at the time.

The Go thinking these days is still very vague about the concept of overall control. What is the efficiency of playing chess, and even starting to calculate which move is the most efficient from the beginning when the board is so empty? This kind of thinking is very difficult for people at this time. All are considered fresh.

Sure enough, the three of them felt extremely novel when they played. Not only was the chess game on the surface interesting, but Wang Wenlong's overall thoughts in his comments made all three of them feel something.

Then as the chess game progressed, the three of them gradually stopped talking.

——The computing power of AI is not comparable to that of humans. It can truly realize all the grand strategies laid out during the layout.

At first, the three of them felt that Wang Wenlong's concept of the overall situation was a bit general, but as the game progressed, all the previous layouts were targeted. If a certain player said he had an advantage, he would indeed have an advantage, and if someone said he had an influence, he would indeed have an influence.
