After all of us are reborn, who plays Go?

Chapter 96 95. Demonic Diagram

"If you're going to hold a professional competition, let me know in advance so I can prepare in advance."

"I won't let you participate in any professional competitions I hold."

Looking at Fang Yuan who was eager to try, Zhan Lang replied without thinking.

If you participate, how can I win the championship?
If I can't win the championship, why should I organize a competition?
Zhan Lang was very clear about his own level. No matter how good Fang Yuan was, he had already been rated as a ninth-level professional by the system. When facing Fang Yuan, he might not even be able to win in a hundred games.

If you participate, wouldn't my competition be in vain?
Fang Yuan looked at the sharp-tongued Zhan Lang and seemed to remember something at this time: "Really, but I guess I will grant you a professional rank when I return.

You have won the championship of a world amateur competition this time. I guess you will be awarded a rank as a role model without even having to compete.

I just don't know what level of professionalism the national team will give you."

"Any professional rank will do. It's not like I can't level up. If I can get a professional 9th ​​rank, that's fine."

"You're dreaming."

When Fang Yuan heard this, he replied without thinking, even if Zhan Lang donated all his money to hold the competition, the Chinese national team would not give him a professional ninth-dan rank.

After all, this affects the balance too much.

In this case, it would simply become a matter of buying and selling Go ranks. What kind of impact would this have on the ecology of Chinese Go?
What should I do if other sponsors ask me in the future if I can sponsor a competition and get me a professional rank directly?
To give or not to give?
If you don’t give it, people will be unhappy and won’t do it.

If it were given, the Chinese Go professional ranking system would become a joke.

Previously, the Chinese national team had been discussing whether to directly award the 9th dan title to Chinese chess players, fearing that the title did not live up to their reality.

Now he has finally made up his mind to reach the ninth rank, but Fang Yuan estimates that there are only one or two people besides himself who can get the ninth rank, but no matter what, it is impossible for him to fight against Zhan Lang.

“If I were to organize a competition, I would hold a Newcomer King Competition, where professional chess players under the age of 18 could participate.

First, we hold a knockout tournament to select eight people, and then the eight people will hold a round-robin tournament. This way, compared to the knockout tournament, everyone will have more opportunities to play chess. "

After all, if it's always a knockout round, you might lose a game if you're not careful.

But if it is a round-robin tournament, the tolerance rate will be much higher.

It can also increase the number of matches for everyone.

After all, what Chinese chess players lack most now is the number of formal games.

Hearing Zhan Lang's sudden words, Fang Yuan deeply felt that someone was shameless: "You held this competition just to win the championship for yourself, right?"

"Steamed buns? You don't have a handle?"

"That's not the case. It's not impossible. After all, it will help the development of young professional players."

Although he cannot participate in this competition, Fang Yuan is grateful that China can have another professional competition.

After all, China only has two professional competitions so far, which can no longer be described as pitifully few.

“It is also difficult to train young chess players because resources are too scarce.

Even though we teach people step by step, we still have to import teaching materials such as life and death problems from Japan, not to mention that many of their materials have not been officially published and are only circulated among professionals. "

Fang Yuan couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this. He had bought a few books specially when he came here this time, but the ones he could publish were basically discarded resources.

The resource gap between Chinese and Japanese Go is too big.

People of the same talent enjoy a natural gap between China and Japan, and can both widen the strength of the two people.

It's so difficult to catch up.

"By the way, how much prize money do you want to get from the championship?"

"How about a thousand bucks?"

"Brother, can you adjust your age to under 30? I beg you." Zhan Lang ignored Fang Yuan, who was so embarrassed when he heard the bonus temptation. He closed his eyes and entered the system space directly.

Looking at the familiar scenes around him, Zhan Lang did not choose a game immediately, but tried to see if he could exploit the system bug.

"System, didn't you say before that I can use my unique skills when I enter the world competition?
Now that I have won the world championship, can I be given the right to use Fine Art?"

After hearing this, the system's voice did not respond immediately, but instead sounded after a while.

[System prompt: The World Championship is a professional Go competition. The World Amateur Championship does not meet the requirements.]

"I don't care! You mentioned the World Series before, but you didn't say whether it was a professional or amateur competition.

Just tell me, is this World Amateur Championship a world championship? Even the black uncles have it, isn’t that world-class enough?”

Zhan Lang listened to the voice of the system and started to act like a rogue. After all, he could get benefits from the system by being shameless.

Zhan Lang could only say that he was born without such a thing as a face.

“It was said that the World Series schedule would be unlocked for me, but in the end, I was given a 24-hour experience. Don’t you have an after-sales channel for this system?

I want to complain! "

[The World Series is the World Go Professional Series]

"I don't care that you didn't say you were a professional amateur before, you must be compensated!"

After hearing Zhan Lang's shameless words, the system spoke again after a period of silence.

[Due to the irregularities in the previous system regulations, we are deeply sorry for the losses caused to the host. 】

"Don't be sorry, get down to business."

If you don't give yourself the right to use artificial intelligence, you wouldn't mind giving yourself two or three million.

[To compensate the host for the loss, the 2024 101 Go life and death question bank is opened, and VIP is opened for the host]

"101 Go life and death problems."

Hearing this, Zhan Lang seemed to think of something. He had seen several professional chess players solving problems on this life and death puzzle website during live broadcasts before.

For example, the world champion Yang Laoshi’s 101D 4 was stuck several times, and Lao Ke’s 5D was also stuck, and was directly rated as industry level 5 by the website.

Then for example, Shen Zi, who had nothing to do every day, played chess on his mobile phone. Later, he became a concept god. No matter what time it was, Xiao Shen was playing chess.

The life and death problem is also the most important part of Go. It is a problem that will never be finished at any time, from amateur to professional.

From the layout to the endgame and the life and death in the midgame, no one can clearly say what is the most important thing in Go.

But no matter what, life and death are one of the most important things in Go.

A hundred years ago, a book called "Fayang Lun" containing life and death problems was treated as a secret book by Inoue family, one of the four great Japanese Go masters, and a strict confidentiality system was implemented.

Not only was the original work kept secret as a heirloom, but even the contents of the book were not accessible to ordinary disciples of the family. Only a very small number of young, promising, loyal and reliable "successors in reserve" were able to follow the family's personal teachings and follow the steps.

The 101 question bank in Zhanlangshou can be said to include almost all life and death questions from ancient times to the era of artificial intelligence.

This is no longer a martial arts secret book of the "Sunflower Manual" level. This is the highest martial arts secret book that a person has to have wiped out all the martial arts secrets, gathered all the martial arts secrets together, and then forced all the martial arts masters to compile them into one book.

It can be said that this is a dimensionality reduction attack on all the life and death question textbooks in the world.

It is a real...
