After all of us are reborn, who plays Go?

"Nani? The information is false?"

President Sekimoto heard the news reported by his subordinates in his office and said with a confused look on his face.

Because when his subordinates reported the news to him, in the Sino-Japanese Tianyuan confrontation match, Fujii Hideaki 9th dan lost to Zhan Lang 9th dan without taking any points. In more common terms, he admitted defeat in the middle game.

Isn't this right?

Who is deceiving me?

President Sekimoto was sitting in his chair, feeling a little confused because the result of the game conflicted with his own understanding.

Didn't I watch this match on Wangfujing Street in the Chinese capital? I remember it clearly. After all, I watched it there for four or five hours and my legs were numb from standing there.

Until the very last moment, when a serious accident occurred on the Chinese team and he saw with his own eyes that the Chinese chess players were unable to recover, he shook his head, sighed, and left.

After leaving, I didn't pay attention to similar news.

It was not until today, when he was preparing to submit a motion to the board of directors, that Guan Ben heard about the result of the competition when his secretary came to report and collect information about Go.

How come China won in the end?
President Sekimoto suddenly had a sense of reality hallucination at this moment. Could it be that he had entered a parallel universe like in the American TV series he had watched before?

The flight I took back seemed to be a bit bumpy, and there was almost an accident.

But that’s impossible. The most important thing in life is to believe in science!

If not, after a major accident happened in China, Japan's Hideaki Fujii, the 9th dan, returned the favor by giving China a big spoon.

In this case, this China-Japan competition is really a great show, with accidents and spoons flying around...

If this is the case, we can only say that Fujii Hideaki is really old. If you think about it, it is indeed true. Fujii Hideaki is almost sixty years old. If he were in his own company, he would be forced to retire soon, let alone a complex mental sport like Go.

If you think about it, I have grown up watching the other side's games, so it is normal to have some problems during the game at this age.

I understand, I understand!
Seeing President Sekimoto looking a little dazed, the secretary quickly reported the whole situation, especially what happened after Sekimoto stopped watching.

"During this match, the Chinese team suffered a serious power outage, which caused China to waste nearly ten minutes of game time.

You left the scene at that time, but it is said that at the last moment, the Chinese chess player made moves very quickly, and each move was brilliant and sharp. In the limited minutes, he not only completed dozens of moves in the game but also forced Fujii Hideaki into a losing situation. "

"..."

When Guan Ben heard this, he really didn't know what to say. According to his guess, Fujii Hideaki was arrested because he was old and his eyesight was blurry and he made a stupid move.

Although it is ugly, it is understandable.

But after listening to the secretary's report, the summary is that Fujii Hideaki didn't lose all the time, but lost because he was a weak player.

The difference between the two is worlds apart.

President Sekimoto can already imagine the criticism of Fujii Hideaki from the entire Japanese Go community. This is no longer a problem that the doge can solve!

He had a brilliant life and successfully became a lifelong chess master. At such an old age, he was even able to obtain a Japanese title. However, he played with eagles all his life and finally had his eyes pecked by an eagle when he was old.

If this matter is not handled properly, it will be a lifelong stain on Fujii Hideaki, the 9th dan.

"What are the reactions from the outside world? Just some reactions from chess fans."

"It is said that after the game, Fujii Hideaki bowed and apologized in front of the TV in front of all the reporters, saying that he had failed the expectations of Japanese Go fans.

Even Zhao Mingxun, the 9th dan who was in charge of explaining the game, was attacked and later apologized. "

Don’t think that the result of the game has nothing to do with the commentary. It is very normal in many circles to attack the commentary after losing.

If you hadn't been so bad at speaking, would we have lost the game?
"What a humiliating defeat!"

Fujii Hideaki's humiliating defeat has become the biggest topic in the Japanese Go world in the past two days.

Upon hearing this, President Sekimoto pressed his temples with a headache. Japanese Go had never taken China seriously, but this time they were bitten by the opponent, which was a huge embarrassment.

The secretary looked at the president who was sitting in his chair with a headache, and asked uncertainly: "Do we still need to propose a proposal to the board of directors this time? To hold a China-Japan Go competition?"

After this incident, will the proposal be shelved? Will the marathon continue to be held?
"Of course we have to continue discussing this! This has even made me more determined to hold this competition!"

"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us!" Upon hearing this, President Guan Ben immediately sat up straight: "To some extent, the Chinese chess player's victory this time is a good thing for us.

If Japan wins this time, it will be difficult to arouse the enthusiasm of the crowd at the beginning of the next match between China and Japan!
But this time it’s different if we lose!

If there is another China-Japan match, the popularity will definitely be higher! Chinese chess fans will have more confidence in their country, and Japanese chess fans will definitely be waiting for a new match to wash away this shame.

This competition will not only help us expand the market in China, but also further promote our advertising in Japan.”

To some extent, it's like Germany and China held a football match, and China ended up losing 0-1. It would be strange if Germany wasn't anxious.

But only by being anxious can we better mobilize everyone's emotions. This time we can advertise not only in China, but also in Japan.

Kill two birds with one stone!
"But if it's still one-on-one, the time span seems very short, right? And it's very unstable. If I lose again..."

The secretary couldn't help but express his concern that if Japan didn't live up to its expectations, it would lose again.

Will the company that supports and sponsors this competition also be condemned by the public?
After all, we only plan to hold this event for advertising. If we lose, it will become a shameful competition for Japanese Go.

Upon hearing this, President Guan Ben fiddled with the ornaments on his desk and said, "You don't really understand the strength of Go between China and Japan. China just took advantage of the situation this time.

But a single game does have risks, and if it ends in one day, the advertising effect will not be good.

So we changed the competition format this time. China only has one player who is slightly stronger, and the strength of the others is probably hard to compare with the Japanese players. However, what Japan lacks the least is strong players.

In this competition, we will bring out the full potential of Japanese Go and select a strong Japanese team to compete against China in the team competition."

"Team competition? Several players versus several players?"

"No, that's too much of an insult to the Chinese. We might even shave their heads bald. Let's have a boxing match!"

If it was a team competition, Japan would definitely send a top-notch player to catch Zhan Lang, ensuring victory 100% and washing away the shame of the defeat in the China-Japan Tianyuan Tournament at one go.

There is an 80% chance that the opponent cannot win at all, so other Chinese chess players may pose no threat at all, and China will face the risk of being shaved bald.

But after all, this competition is held for the purpose of advertising for the company in China and expanding the Chinese market. It is indeed a bit bad to shave China's head.

After all, if they really shave their heads, it might arouse some rebellious psychology, and this advertisement might even have a counterproductive effect and be boycotted by others.

So no matter what, Japanese Go players have to give the opponent two points, but it can’t be a simple concede, they also have to take the opponent’s self-esteem into consideration.

Advertising is not easy.

But since we are the sponsor, the Japanese Go team has to consider our opinions.

"The arena match?"

"That's right. Whoever loses will go down, and the winner will be the champion. He will continue to accept challenges from the other team until there is no one left on the other team. The game is over."

Guan Ben nodded as he spoke. In this way, Japan's powerful strength can be fully exerted, and China will also not be unable to lose a single game.

China can still defeat a few people after all, and then the top-notch ones will wipe out China in one fell swoop.

The Chinese can accept it, after all, they have won.

Japanese chess fans are also very angry. They are top-notch and invincible.

I advertised in both China and Japan at the same time.

Triple win!

There is no better situation than this.

“Notify the Japan Shogi Association that we need to organize this competition well.

By the way, Mr. Fujii Hideaki must be on the list!"

Teacher Fujii Hideaki has fought for Japanese Go all his life, he can't leave with a stain on his reputation.

This is all I can do.
