big country sports

After Wu Jie briefly accepted interviews from several large TV stations, he was finally able to sit in the front row and watch the big screen.

"Gah, this sport really isn't suitable for watching matches!"

After Wu Jie sat down, he was in pain. He had already sat in the first row, but he still couldn't see the fighting on the chessboard. He could only look up at the big screen like everyone else.

Also, if you don't talk for two or three hours after one round of this shit, your neck will be sore!

Of course, he didn't come to the scene to watch chess, he didn't know how to play this kind of thing at all, at most he knew some technical terms.

He came here today mainly to help Ji Xiuwen stand on the platform. As long as the latter can play a shocking performance in this group arena, and then have him as a fan of the world king as the output hotspot, Ji Xiuwen can be made overnight. Fire out of circle.

At 10:15 in the morning, the third "China-Japan Go Challenge", which was delayed by 15 minutes from the scheduled time due to the arrival of the Ten Thousand Stars, was finally sent to the TV stations of China and Japan, as well as countries in the Han cultural circle. signal.

The list of players for the Chinese Go team was first displayed on the TV screen——

Ninth dan: Nie Weiping, Liu Xiaoguang, Ma Xiaochun, Cao Dayuan, Wang Qun, eighth dan: Qian Yuping, Jiang Zhujiu, sixth dan: Yang Hui, fourth dan: Ji Xiuwen.

The main members of the Chinese Go team are familiar even to Japanese Go fans, because most of them participated in the previous two games. This year's new faces are only Wang Qun, Yang Hui, and Ji Xiuwen.

At this time, audiences from the two countries quickly turned their attention to Ji Xiuwen, because from the photo, the chess player was obviously still a child, and the title of "fourth dan" was even more eye-catching. Can a player of this level also play in the ring?

"Am I not mistaken? This chess player is only 15 years old?"

"Duan [-]? Is there no one in China? Or is it defiant after winning twice?"

"Wait, 15-year-old Siduan, isn't it a joke?"

"Chinese, what do you mean by that?"

"..."

The Japanese audience was a little confused. Isn’t Chinese Go very good in the past two years? How could they send such a four-dan player?

Wouldn't this be humiliating them?

But the 15-year-old Siduan seems to be very powerful.

At this time, not only the Japanese audience had question marks on their faces, but also the nine players of the Japanese Go team were full of doubts.

Masao Kato, the main player of the Japanese team, is also an enemy and friend of Nie Weiping, so he couldn't help asking him at this time: "Nie Sang, I heard that you beat this kid half a year ago?"

Old Nie's face turned pale immediately when he heard this, and suddenly he had an idea in the middle of silence, and he nodded and said, "That's right, this is my disciple, don't underestimate him, it's not easy for me to defeat him now!"

When Masao Kato heard this, his face straightened, and he really didn't dare to underestimate Ji Xiuwen.

But how could he have imagined that this apprentice Nie Weiping had just accepted him a few seconds ago, and he hadn't even obtained the consent of the person involved.

Seeing the proud look on Nie Weiping's face at this time, Masao Kato did not want to believe how powerful a 15-year-old kid could be, but the Chinese team could not waste a precious spot, and they had to be cautious when they returned. Treat this 15-year-old opponent up.

At this time, the big screen and the TV signal at the scene began to play the list of players of the Japanese Go team——

Ninth dan: Kobayashi Kaku, Yamashiro Hiroshi, Ohira Shuzo, Kudo Norio, Takemiya Masaki, Kato Masao; Eighth dan: Miyazawa Goro; Seventh dan: Yoda Kiki; Sixth dan: Kusunoko.

If you just look at the ranks of the two sides, there is actually not much difference.

However, there is still a difference in strength between the ranks of China and Japan, and even the same rank in the same country may be very different in strength.

This is easy to understand, just like the gold content of the ladder 5000+ in each Dota competition area must be different, the strength of the same score in China and Europe will definitely be slightly stronger.

If the ladder score only goes up but not down, then even with the same score in the same competition area, the strength may be very different.

This is the current comparison of Go between China and Japan. China may produce one or two overlord players like Nie Weiping, but the thickness of the Japanese Go world is still much stronger. It will take time to accumulate if it really wants to fully surpass it. Relying on Nie Weiping's thriving is not surpassing.

This kind of thickness is also the tactic of this year's Japanese Go team. Although Nie Weiping has the strength to kill several of them in a row, as long as he uses his own thickness advantage to form a wheel battle with enough people, no matter how strong Nie Weiping is, it is impossible to 1V5 every time!

Masao Kato and Nie Weiping were both having their own plans. At this time, the first vanguard players from both sides also stepped onto the chess table, bowed and sat down, ready to start the opening match.

The Chinese Go team sent the only female player this year, Yang Hui, who just rose to the sixth dan last year.

The Japanese Go team's eyelids jumped when they saw Chinese female pioneers. In the first group arena three years ago, they did not expect that the Chinese team would send female players to play, let alone that the Chinese team would let female players be the pioneers, but The last thing I expected was to be blooded by Kong Xiangming.

This is a great shame to the Japanese Go world, so starting from the second session, the Japanese Go team also chose to join a female player.

This also became a tacit understanding between the two sides when they met later. The first match was always played by a female chess player as the vanguard, and this time they also sent Nan Guangzi who had just reached the sixth rank.

Wu Jie was in a bit of pain at this time, because Ji Xiuwen was in the position of lieutenant general, which meant that he was the penultimate player of the Chinese team to play. It will soon be on the fourth day.

This assumption is of course impossible to realize. If there is anything in the current Chinese Go world that is stronger than Japan, then one is that Chinese Go leaders are temporarily stronger than Japan, and the other is that Chinese female generals are stronger than Japanese female generals.

Kong Xiangming, Rui Naiwei, and Yang Hui, the three giants of the Chinese female Go world, the first two played in the first and second competitions respectively, and finally won the Chinese team. Among them, Kong Xiangming won or Japanese nine-dan male chess player.

This time, Yang Hui and Nan Guangzi are the third match between the Chinese women's generals and the second battle between the two women's generals.

The Japanese Go world, as well as Japanese Go fans, attach great importance to this same two-game losing streak.

After the two female generals finished guessing, Nan Guangzi will hold the black and Yang Hui will hold the white.

Yang Hui's condition is obviously good today. Nie Weiping also said in an interview just now that he lost a set to Yang Hui in training.

The Japanese Go team felt that this was a sinister scheming, but Nan Guangzi was obviously affected, and he still played conservatively when he played black at the beginning.

Yang Hui, on the other hand, has been handy since the beginning of the game. She has a better sense of chess than Nan Guangzi. She doesn't stick to the little bit of interest in front of her. She takes advantage of the situation all the way to occupy a high position.

Nan Guangzi launched an attack after 50 moves, but was immediately counterattacked mercilessly by Yang Hui.

Although both are female generals, their chess styles are completely different.

Nan Guangzi's chess moves are gentle and drizzle, but lack of aggression in elegance and harmony, like flowers in a greenhouse.

Yang Hui's chess style is obviously not a painting style. After the situation is dominant, he has no intention of avoiding the battle. The battle feels like a Valkyrie's painting style.

After the two female generals fought to 100 hands, the battle has spread from one part to the other.

At this time, Nan Guangzi still backed down everywhere, not daring to fight, and the chess situation naturally became more and more difficult.

Relying on the early layout and the advantages he continuously gained from the battle after entering the middle game, Yang Hui already has the chance to win at this time.

If there is AI analysis at this time, then Yang Hui's winning rate has exceeded 80% at this time.

In the end, after about 3 hours of stubborn resistance, Nan Guangzi finally lost the situation in the constant evasion, and finally had no choice but to surrender. Yang Hui, the female pioneer, once again won a good start for the Chinese team.

At this time, the Japanese of course couldn’t hold back their faces. You must know that 30 years ago, a five-stage Japanese old lady, Ito Tomoe, swayed a folding fan by herself, and beat many Chinese masters to the ground, setting a new record. The feat of the top chess players in China.

The thing that vomited blood the most was that during the game, the old lady would often stand up and walk around the tables while the Chinese chess players were nervously thinking, leaving behind Chinese chess players who were so nervous that their hands trembled.

At that time, Japanese Go could be said to have reached its peak. Domestic professional players had to hand over 2 stones or give first to Chinese players, because it was impossible to win in normal play.

But Feng Shui took turns, and now they have won the first victory by a Chinese female forward for three consecutive years. This is even more difficult to accept in Japanese society where men are superior to women!

As soon as the three-game losing streak in this vanguard battle came out, many Japanese audiences already had an ominous premonition.

Naturally, the Japanese Go team also has Alexander, and now the vanguard game has been lost, but it is not a great shame for a female player to lose a female player.

But if the female player completes the winning streak in the second round, it would be a great shame to the Japanese chess world!

Masao Kato didn't even bother to catch up with Nie Weiping, and took the team back to the meeting right after the first battle.

Today's second match is scheduled for 7:[-] pm, naturally Wu Jie won't wait any longer, he almost fell asleep watching the first match, of course he just yo-yoed and rolled back to the hotel.

In addition to the recent Sino-Japanese Go match, there are still many feasts for Chinese sports fans.

Qin Jian, whom he has not paid attention to for a long time, will usher in a world-renowned "unified boxing champion" this Christmas!

Not only Chinese sports fans are paying attention to this battle, but boxing fans all over the world are also looking forward to this super battle.

This match will determine the ownership of the "light heavyweight" boxing champions of IBF and WBC. The winner will directly deprive the opponent of the title of boxing champion and become a double boxing champion across the two organizations.

Qin Jian's opponent is the 31-year-old old boxing champion Carlos DeTion, who has a record of 38 wins and 3 losses. It is worth mentioning that he has never won by KO in his career.

This is also the biggest attraction that boxing fans all over the world are looking forward to-Carlos Detian has never been KO'd, but no one has ever been able to stand up and finish the game under Qin Jian's fist on the opposite side.

Now everyone wants to know, after this "unified boxing champion" is over, which of the two records will be broken?

American boxing fans naturally hope that De Dieng can defeat Qin Jian, at least he must finish the game standing up like Rocky.

However, judging from the odds offered by gaming companies around the world, including those in the United States, Qin Jian is still favored by these experts.

The reason why they are optimistic about Qin Jian is very simple. De Dieng's career seems to have been very brilliant, but Qin Jian's career of less than two years seems to be a miracle!

After Qin Jian took 12 fights last year to win the IBF light heavyweight champion belt, he fought two more IBF title defenses this year, and also won 5 consecutive victories in the WBC. His current record has reached 19 fights Total victory.

The scariest thing about Qin Jian is of course not his 19-match victory. There are quite a few players who have won all of their first 19 bouts in the professional boxing world. What is really frightening about him is that in these [-] victories, each of them ended with a KO. Opponents won, and no fight lasted past four rounds.

In the past two years, every opponent who stood in front of him ended up lying down and being carried down within four rounds, and most of them couldn't even survive the first round.

At this time, the American media had given Qin Jian nicknames such as "tyrant", "Satan", and "devil". fear and repulsion!

But no matter how displeased these people are, it’s useless. In the professional boxing world, unless someone can persist for 12 rounds, then the referee can play an effective role. Otherwise, it’s useless even if the Japanese referee comes.

However, Qin Jian's absolute dominance did not reduce the attention of boxing fans from all over the world to him, because this kind of hope in despair and fear made boxing fans all over the world pay more attention, even American boxing fans I also look forward to the day when a great hero can stand up and end the evil Qin Jian.

The two big gimmicks in the pre-match publicity of this "United Fight of Boxing Champions" are: whether De Dieng can end Qin Jian's KO record!And: In what way will the "tyrant" Qin Shihuang knock down his opponent tonight?

As for the third highlight, of course it is the sky-high appearance fee!

This kind of united battle of boxing champions of different boxing organizations has to go through long and arduous negotiations to take shape every time.

The "negotiation" here refers to the appearance fee of course. Since everyone is a boxing champion, it is not only the winner who has to discuss, but also how much the loser can get. Otherwise, both sides will not start the war lightly.

After the match was decided, Qin Jian thanked his agent especially in the interview.

The boxing fan agent who came to him at the beginning of this year has helped him arrange several million-dollar appearance fees in the past year, and most of the venues are in his own hotel.

Of course, he made a lot of money from it, but there is no reason to refuse this kind of win-win cooperation. Besides, he is indeed a boxing fan of Qin Jian and Tyson, and has even cooperated with MSM and officially became their manager.

MSM said that there is no way to refuse to cooperate with him, because in the latter's own words, that is, "No one knows boxing better than me! Gesture gesture gesture gesture!"

This time, after a lot of running and running, this "unified boxing champion" finally broke the record for the highest appearance fee in sports history, reaching 3000 million US dollars in one fell swoop.

The $3000 million will be split between the two, with the winner getting $2000 million and the loser getting a $1000 million appearance fee.

However, it is rumored that an American gaming company and family have approached De Dieng privately, promising that if he can persist for 5 rounds, he will be rewarded with a considerable amount of extra income.

Of course, Qin Jian also has an additional share of tickets and box office - as long as the live tickets for this game exceed 1000 million US dollars, and the PPV box office exceeds 5000 million US dollars, then he can get at least more than 500 million US dollars in share.

This money is exclusive to Qin Jian regardless of whether he wins or loses, who made this game all the highlights come from him.

Of course Wu Jie was very distressed after learning this information. Wouldn't he not be afraid to commit some crimes in the beautiful country in the future, anyway, he can be pardoned!

In addition, he was secretly astounded by Qin Jian's ability to absorb money. This match had a direct income of almost 2500 million US dollars, and the invisible income after winning two gold belts, such as the surge in endorsement fees, should not be underestimated. !

Wu Jie did a rough calculation. This year, counting Qin Jian's previous 2 games worth 500 million US dollars and 5 games with multi-million dollar appearance fees, his annual income will be close to 5000 million US dollars, not counting endorsements. In terms of endorsement, he is actually taller than him.

Also, this was 1987 million US dollars in 5000, and there are at least 2500 million US dollars after tax.

Qin Jian doesn't like money, and he doesn't care about it.

But someone cares more than him, because half of the money will be handed over to the sports foundation, 10% of which will be sent directly to the sports department, and the other 90% will be fully sent to the sports department as supplementary funds after being converted into RMB.

So it is conceivable that now the Boxing Association dares to scoff at the Basketball Association, dare to stand up in front of the Football Association, and dare to move the position of the first brother of its own association behind the Football Association during a meeting. It is not difficult to understand the reason.

Now the various associations under the Ministry of Sports are not based on their performance, but on who can bring more funds.

In this regard, the Boxing Association, which was discriminated against a few years ago, is now second only to the Football Association in its contribution, and its status has naturally increased.

As for Go, any department in this meeting can despise it. Every meeting is arranged at the end, and even the stools are temporarily taken from other rooms.

But Wu Jie knows that although Go is not valued, and is even excluded in the sports department, this game has special significance for the three countries in East Asia, because-"The prosperity of the country, the prosperity of chess; the decline of the national fortune, the decline of chess .”

Chapter 462 The Disappearing Alien!

This year's Sino-Japanese Go War, the Japanese side made a big change in the lineup. The "Six Super League" that was folded in the hands of Nie Weiping in the previous two games, this time directly retreated half of it, and replaced it with Yitian, who is the most popular of the younger generation. Kiki and Hiroshi Yamashiro.

This kind of change is not difficult to understand. There is a tradition in the field of Go, that is, a super-class player is undefeated in a big game. Odds are languishing and never getting back to peak form.

The "Six Supers" in the Japanese Go game refers to Otake Hero, Lin Haifeng, Kato Masao, Takemiya Masaki, Kobayashi Koichi, and Zhao Zhixun, these six super-class players who ruled the Japanese chess world in the 80s and [-]s.

Among these six people, Lin Haifeng is of Chinese Japanese nationality, and Zhao Zhixun is of Korean descent of Japanese nationality. The two of them are not qualified to represent Japan in the Sino-Japanese War.

The four Japanese players in the "Six Super Leagues" participated in the Sino-Japanese Go Tournament in the previous two sessions, but all of them were defeated by Nie Weiping, and they were all defeated!

This is the reason why Nie Weiping is qualified to create an exclusive era, and it also means that the myth of the Six Supers has been officially ended. At this time, the Go world has actually entered the "Nie Weiping Era".

At this time, it is difficult for the "Six Supers" to face Nie Weiping normally in terms of spirit, and it will give other Chinese chess players an advantage psychologically.

So this year, only Masao Kato and Masaki Takemiya had to play. After all, it would be even worse to say that all four fronts were timid.

But there are advantages to playing with a younger generation, who can surprise with a change in style.

This group of Chinese chess players has no secrets in Japan, but their newcomers are completely unfamiliar to Chinese chess players.

This has the opportunity to catch them off guard and catch the Chinese team by surprise.

But the thought was good, but the second game on the first day made the Japanese team feel even worse.

In the evening, the Japanese sent eight-dan Goro Miyazawa to face Yang Hui.
