After all of us are reborn, who plays Go?

"Won."

Hao Qiang glanced at Fang Yuan who was sitting next to him and asked uncertainly.

Is it that easy to win?
In the past, every competition lasted for a long time, and sometimes it would not end until dinner time at night.

But the players this time were Japan’s top players, and yet the game was over before the lunch break?
Fang Yuan just nodded: "Complete victory."

It was indeed a complete victory. Zhan Lang in this state even made people feel a little scared.

Fang Yuan even felt that Zhan Lang's computing power was a bit unfamiliar. This computing power was too terrifying.

In such an extremely complicated situation, everyone made the right choices in such a short time and found a way to kill the opponent with one blow.

So terrifying.

After all, there is no way to prepare for such a complicated situation in advance, and even similar situations are hard to come by, so everything depends on on-the-spot performance.

In other words, Zhan Lang's on-the-spot performance this time was perfect. He directly defeated Sanye Kenichi and achieved a perfect victory.

Zhan Lang's victory in this round was like a weak fire in winter that seemed to burn a little more fiercely, so that the Chinese team did not lose the last bit of hope, and even felt a long-lost warmth.

But it is only a slight change. The real environment is still chilly, no matter which reality it is.

On the contrary, except for Shohei Takemiya, the other players on the Japanese team are definitely not in very good shape.

After all, so many people came here just to attend the closing ceremony, but the first game ended up being a defeat. Such a start is indeed a bit unhappy.

When we flew here to discuss this, we all felt that we had won the first game, so we would have a few days left for our visas and could travel more in China.

Now it seems that everyone’s beautiful imagination on the plane will be ruined.

But at least at this stage there is still the 9th dan Toya Masao. As long as they can win the next game, they will not return empty-handed.

Otherwise, it would all be a wasted trip.

"Based on the state of Zhanlang today, can Toya Masao win?"

Wu Gong Zhengping did not say anything, but just thought about it silently in his heart, then shook his head.

Today it's just that Zhanlang is in better shape. There are also some easy games between top-notch players. Sometimes the shape of each other is also very important.

It is common that some problems will occur if one is in a slightly worse condition, or one will be beaten up by the opponent when the opponent is in full condition.

But sometimes in Go, if you are in good shape in the previous game, you may pull well in the next game, even a big one.

Takemiya Masahei believes that Zhan Lang will not be in such a good state in the next game.

In other words, if Zhan Lang can always maintain such a terrifying calculation route and state, Wu Gong Zhengping feels that everyone can go to bed and all of them can withdraw from the top-notch sequence, and only Zhan Lang can keep this title.

It is even possible that Zhan Lang was just luckier in this round and happened to choose the best option.

"But based on today's situation, let's split it 70% to 30%."

When Wu Gong Zhengping heard this, he muttered softly. Even if Zhan Lang couldn't perform as well as he did today, as long as nothing major happened within a day, Zhan Lang's condition would not take a sharp turn for the worse.

To some extent, Zhan Lang is expected to win the next round.

But if that's the case, then I'd have made a wasted trip.

But it wasn’t a wasted trip, I was still quite satisfied watching this game.

Fujii Hideaki shook his head when he heard this: "Toya Masao is very fierce. Sometimes you never know how his moves will turn out."

"I hope so, otherwise our trip would have been in vain." Takemiya Masahei just nodded when he heard this. It was because the Japanese side said they wanted to participate in the closing ceremony that they forced to bring along Takemiya Masahei and Takenouchi Katsuya, two players who would compete in the next stage.

By the way, last year's head coach Fujii Hideaki wanted to use this competition to wash away the shame of the previous session.

Takemiya Masahei didn't feel anything about this. After all, to a certain extent, it was just Zhan Lang's personal show on China's side. Even if he won, it would feel like they were a country bullying one person.

However, the eldest brother Katsuya Takenouchi seems to be very concerned about this matter, or to some extent, the eldest brother, who has always been committed to maintaining the status of Japanese Go, also vaguely feels the threat of Chinese Go.

Now that Chinese Go is in its infancy, their momentum will be further suppressed and they will not be given a real chance to grow.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to spend money on a taxi and fly here overnight.

Another player, Katsuya Takenouchi, also asked how the 9th dan Masao Toya was preparing.

After thinking for a while, Toya Masao 9th Dan just replied: "I will come up with a plan."

After watching today's game between Zhan Lang and Mitsuba Kenichi, 9th Dan Toya Masao really didn't dare to issue any military order to win tomorrow.

When Katsuya Takenouchi heard this, he just nodded and felt a little anxious.

The little Chinese guy Zhan Lang is indeed closing in on him, but ahead of him are still the 9th dan Toya Masao and Takemiya Masahei, who is in hot form this year.

With this double insurance, the possibility of Zhan Lang getting in front of him is not great.

Although he thought so, Takenouchi Katsuya was already preparing for the match against Shi Zhanlang.

The prerequisite is that Zhan Lang can still win the next game against Toya Masao, 9th dan.

You know, Katsuya Takenouchi had no intention of competing at all, so he didn't make any preparations at all.

Although the atmosphere on the Japanese side was not high, the Chinese team did not look relaxed either. Zhan Lang was walking alone on the tightrope and was in danger of falling into the abyss at any time.

After all, there will still be a one-on-three battle behind the waves, and there is really no reason for China to be optimistic.

After Zhan Lang and Sanye Jianyi finished their review, everyone set up a banquet at the hotel where the reception was held as usual.

The other members of the Chinese team, including Masahei Takemiya from the Japanese team who did not have to compete, naturally also drank happily.

There are many wine lovers among Go players. There are even jokes that how much one can drink is related to one's Go skills. But it is indeed related to the fact that the early representatives of China, Japan and South Korea all had a good alcohol tolerance. Some even used large cups to hold fine wine and drank it all in one gulp.

Zhan Lang and Toya Masao 9th Dan had a game the day after tomorrow so no one forced them to drink, and no one even tried to urge them to drink.

However, the ninth dan player, Masao Toya, drank three cups of Maotai, his face turned slightly red, and he suddenly stood up and said something.

"The day after tomorrow I will slay the dragon."

Zhan Lang, who was sitting opposite to Toya Masao, was stunned for a moment when he heard this. Then Zhan Lang smiled and raised the Coke in his cup while sitting on his seat: "I had this feeling too, but I won."

The two people's words did not affect the atmosphere at the table, and everyone else was drinking happily.

But after the drinking party, both parties returned to their homes with heavy hearts.

The outcome of the next game is particularly important.

If Zhan Lang loses, the Chinese team will be completely wiped out.

If Toya Masao loses, all the Japanese team members who came to participate in the closing ceremony excitedly will return empty-handed.

Neither China nor Japan reported much about this game because the next game was about to start.
