After all of us are reborn, who plays Go?

Chapter 117 116. Good Saint Grandson

"..."

Chen Long looked at the situation on the field, and for a moment he fell into silence. He originally wanted to kill the big dragon Zhan Lang, and he wanted to kill three of them.

As a result, not only did he fail to kill any dragon, but the big dragon in the lower left corner was killed by Zhan Lang.

Thinking of this, Chen Long couldn't help but sigh.

If the previous advantageous situation had happened in the past, I would never have given it up no matter what I did.

I am getting old after all, and when it comes to precise calculations, I already have trouble figuring things out.

Although Zhan Lang's strength is still a little lacking, he can always keenly grasp the opponent's flaws and deliver a fatal blow.

Just like a top assassin, he lurks in the darkness, waiting to give you a fatal blow.

After all the back and forth, I made the final mistake in this game, which led to the current almost irreparable situation.

In that case, let’s go for it.

Even in this situation, Chen Long did not give up on himself. Instead, he rushed down from above, preparing to attack the big dragon in the upper right corner of Zhan Lang.

Not giving up in the face of adversity is my way of chess as a chess player!
Now the big dragon in the lower left corner has been killed by Zhan Lang. If Chen Long cannot kill Zhan Lang’s big dragon, there is no point in talking about winning or losing.

The value of any dragon in Go is too great. Unless it can be exchanged for equal value, the life or death of a dragon will directly affect the outcome of the game.

This is also what many people who only look at the winning rate of AI in the era of AI cannot understand, and they use AI to blame humans for not being as ahead as AI.

The big dragon is dead, what's the point of escaping?

However, Zhan Lang, who had gained the advantage, was unusually calm at this time.

Calmly bring the big dragon on the upper right to life first.

"Eating just one piece won't be enough. We must eat all the dragons on this side."

After Zhan Lang made the upper right corner active, Chen Long could only turn his target to the upper left corner.

But in the second half of the game, time was running out and Chen Long clearly felt that his calculation ability was not enough. He was not sure he could win one of the pieces.

In this case, we have no choice but to fight to the death and eat up the big dragon in the upper left corner.

But in fact, in Zhan Lang's judgment, Chen Long was quick to cut himself in two and eat one of the pieces. Although he still had the advantage, the situation was very subtle.

Even if the winning rate of artificial intelligence reaches 100%, for humans, in this situation, if they take a wrong step or give away an eye or two, they will be completely doomed.

After entering the endgame stage, it becomes a very delicate situation, and it will depend on who has better endgame skills.

However, Chen Long took into account that he had no way to confirm whether the subsequent number of points was sufficient, and he had no confidence that he could win the battle in such a subtle situation.

It’s better to be in the situation you are best at.

kill.

Fight your way out!

This is what I was like when I was at my peak!
Kill your opponent so hard that he is terrified, and you will be the winner!

However, the younger Zhan Lang was the first to judge the situation on the field.

At this point, it is no longer possible.

Seeing the big white dragon in the upper left corner with two eyes already alive, Chen Long sighed helplessly.

Since the loss in the lower left corner was too severe, if I couldn't kill the opponent, I would lose the game.

The whole situation is so different that there is no point in continuing to talk about it.

Chen Long found a shooting field below, and after fighting for a while, he admitted defeat.

"Time is merciless." Chen Long couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the situation on the field. He didn't expect that he couldn't even make it through the first round.

The strength that I used to be proud of is now always just one step away from success.

"There's not enough time later, otherwise you should be able to figure it out."

The time rules adopted in this Langke Cup are two hours and thirty minutes for each side, with three thirty-second countdowns.

If it were a few decades later, it would definitely be a slow game, but if it were now, it could be considered a fast game.

After all, Japanese Go, which is a benchmark, now takes an outrageously long time.

When it came to the step per thirty seconds at the end, Chen Long really couldn't calculate anymore. Many times he could only rely on his first instinct, but at this age, first instincts are prone to problems.

If it was his peak period decades ago, Chen Long felt that he might be able to do it, but it’s really not possible now.

Two years ago, Chen Long vomited blood on the field due to health reasons, and was later diagnosed with cancer.

Even though I have stepped down from the front line and received treatment, my health is still not as good as before.

"However, this competition also exposed some problems. Many professional chess players had some problems when participating in this competition. Some even exceeded the time limit. It was really because they had not played for a long time."

Chen Long seemed to adjust his mood quickly and didn't care about the outcome of this match. Instead, he analyzed the match with Zhan Lang.

“But with more games to come, the situation should be much better.

But we still feel that the rules of the game are a bit bad, for example, there is no closing time, so most people can't hold on for five or six hours straight."

Although you can eat during the game, the game lasts at least five or six hours, so no matter when it starts, one of lunch and dinner will definitely be delayed.

Youngsters like Zhan Lang can still hold on, but I really can't.

This was also one of the reasons why Chen Long’s calculation ability was insufficient in the latter part of the game. Although food was provided on the field, none of it was solid.

Zhan Lang nodded when he heard this. The game model that he had forced into later did have some problems.

In the future, you will basically not find people over 30 years old in the front-line jobs. Now, most people in the front-line jobs are over 30 years old, and everyone’s physical fitness is not at the same level.

And the main reason why the market will not be closed in the future is because the emergence of artificial intelligence has made cheating too easy to happen, but there is no such worry now.

“It is indeed possible to consider closing the market at noon, but it still needs to be strictly supervised, and it is forbidden to discuss the game content during meals and rest time.”

"Xiao Zhan, you should believe in the ethics of professional chess players."

Hearing this, Chen Long said helplessly.

Zhan Lang is a good kid in every way, but he seems to be suspicious. He always assumes the worst of people and is on guard against them like he is a thief.

Zhan Lang just shook his head when he heard this: "No, Mr. Chen, this is not a question of not believing in morality, but everything is governed by rules. It is better to have rules to follow than to have no rules at all."

Establishing order cannot rely solely on morality. The best way is to let everyone form natural habits under the rules.

Chen Long didn't say much after hearing this. After all, Zhan Lang had accepted his opinion, so there was no need to dwell on the remaining unimportant details.

The two chatted for a while about what needed to be improved in the subsequent games. After reviewing the game for a while, Zhan Lang stood up, said goodbye and left.

After leaving, Chen Long, who was full of energy just now, suddenly sighed, lay down on the chair and touched the chessboard that had been put away and was empty.

"I'm really old..."

Thinking back to the game just now, Chen Long's eyes couldn't help but dim. The hero is old, and the one who suffers the most is the hero himself.

But at least there are still people doing their unfinished work.

Fangyuan can hold up the current Chinese Go, and Zhanlang will inherit the banner for the future.

What a great grandson! Chinese Go can bring prosperity to three generations.
