It was already past eight o'clock in the evening, but Hengku City was not too far from Kuye County. After driving along the highway for two hours, the taxi took Meng Hao and Ding Huang to Hengku City and arrived at the hotel where the Han chess players lived.
This is because Go is the national quintessence of the Han Dynasty and is only popular in countries surrounding the Han Dynasty that are deeply influenced by the Han culture.
Among them, Fuso and Dongyi were the other two Go powers besides the Han Kingdom.
In addition, several small countries in Southeast Asia, such as Country T and Country Y, also have national teams participating in the competition.
But apart from this, in countries on other continents, there are very few people who understand and learn Go. Even if there are a few players, they all participate in the competition as private individuals.
In other words, the scale of the Go championship is not large, at least much smaller tha
It turns out that for every Go championship, the three Go powers, Han, Fuso, and Dongyi, would hold a social gathering the day before the game.There is a regular program in the social gathering, which is to let contestants from the three countries hold a friendly competition.And what they were competing in was not chess skills, but martial arts.This habit is a bit strange, as Go and martial arts don’t seem to be related at all!In fact, there is a reason for this.At a tournament twenty years ago, three Go powerhouses held a get-together before the game.At that time, the chess skills of the top seeded players from the three countries were similar, and they won and lost in the competitions with each other. No one dared to say that they could win the game without losing.What’s even more coincidental is that the top seeded players from Han and Fuso have all practiced martial arts, and their martial arts skills are quite strong.
Zhang Xu's status in the chess world is actually higher than that of Team Leader Dong.However, in order to cope with the martial arts competition at the social gathering, the relevant leaders specially promoted Dong Wenqiang to be the team leader.So just talking about the composition of this championship, except for the event planning and arrangement which was mainly led by Zhang Xu, all other matters had to be arranged by Dong Wenqiang.Moreover, Dong Wenqiang had never been very convinced of Zhang Xu in his heart. Now that he finally had the opportunity to put pressure on Zhang Xu, Dong Wenqiang naturally would no longer show any respect to Zhang Xu.On the contrary, when Dong Wenqiang heard the reproach in Zhang Xu's tone, his anger suddenly surged."Coach Zhang, you're here just in time. Why don't you tell me what's wrong with this kid? The competition is officially going to start tomorrow, but he just arrived today. Not only is he disorgan
Before the leader finished speaking, Dong Wenqiang was so shocked that he gasped and blurted out , "Impossible? With him... at such a young age, how can he make 100 million every year?""I don't know about that. Anyway, that's what Miss Ding told me! I originally thought that since this guy has such an amazing chess skill, even though he's a little older, I still want him to join the national team. At least he can help our country win a few international championships!""But after hearing what Miss Ding said, I immediately gave up on this idea! Just think about it, 100 million per year!""It's no wonder they don't want to participate in special training. With a net income of 100 million per year, you can imagine how busy they are. They can spare a few days to participate in the championship, and they are also striving to win glory for the country! As for the hundreds of thousands of prize money for the competition, they will never look at it!""So, Mr.
Because Meng Hao had not participated in special training and had never even stepped into the national team, the contestants of the Han team were not familiar with Meng Hao.When they saw Meng Hao and Ding Huang, most of them just watched coldly, and few took the initiative to come forward and say hello.People like Chang Jie and Xu Yingchun made no secret of their hostility towards Meng Hao.Only Liang Xinyu, upon seeing Meng Hao and Ding Huang, hurried over, with a bit of the naivety of a little girl, begging Meng Hao for advice.Meng Hao naturally did not hold back, and discussed Liang Xinyu's strengths and weaknesses in a very targeted manner with her.This girl is indeed very talented in Go. In just two months of special training, her Go skills have improved by leaps and bounds. Meng Hao estimates that with her current level, she may not lose to Xu Yingchun.In the afternoon, Dong Wenqiang led a team to select several Han players to at
Meng Hao is by no means an aggressive person. On the contrary, most of the time, he would give in if he could.Anyway, his abilities have reached this point, and haggling with these common people would only lead to his losing his status.But he was really disgusted with the two countries of Fusang and Dongyi.There is no need to mention the Fuso Kingdom, but the Dongyi are often even more disgusting than the Fuso Kingdom.First of all, this country is devoted to clinging to the Western powers. If Fuso is the lackey of the Western powers, then Dongyi is the godson of the Western powers.Secondly, this country was clearly a small barbarian country in ancient times, and most of the time, it was a vassal state of the Han Dynasty. But now it often makes wild remarks, saying that the national essence and celebrities of the Han Dynasty all came from this small Dongyi country.How ridiculous!No one in the world would take it seriously, but t
Ge Lianyi is only in her twenties, but this born scheming bitch is even more cunning than that stupid old man Dong Wenqiang.But how could she control Meng Hao at will?"My martial arts are not as good as Senior Sister Ge 's. After all, my mission is to win the championship of this tournament! Senior Sister Ge didn't even participate in the trials, right? You must have practiced martial arts for a few days, so you came here specifically to cope with the martial arts competition at the social gathering, right? Come on, this senior brother from Fuso is looking for someone to spar with, Senior Sister Ge , hurry up and show your strengths!"This is even more hurtful!It is obvious that Ge Lianyi's chess skills are not very good, and his "strength" is just that he has practiced martial arts for a few days.Ge Lianyi's pretty face turned red in an instant.But soon, Ge Lianyi giggled and pointed at Ding Huang."Isn't this Senior Sister Ding
To be honest, most of the people present today came for the purpose of watching the fun.As a result, the Han people started arguing among themselves, and the verbal battle was obviously very exciting, but the problem was that the foreigners could not quite understand what they were saying.On the contrary, the more I listened, the more boring it became, and the more depressed I became.After much difficulty, the leaders of the three countries announced the start of the contest, but they did not expect that the strong man from Fusang would challenge the young man from Han first. The young man, on the other hand, said directly, "How scary!"Anyone who knows a little Chinese can understand the sentence "It's so scary".——Then this Han boy wanted a woman to take his place.Even though this woman is not good looking, she is still a woman after all. Do you, Han boy, still have some dignity ?Even if you are skinny and frail , you don’t hav
It turned out that when everyone in the hall, including Dong Wenqiang, was dumbfounded, the strong man from Fuso was the first to come to his senses .The man looked rough and rough, but unexpectedly he was also a treacherous person.While Meng Hao was not paying any attention to him, the sturdy man suddenly had a vicious idea.As he let out an “Ah!”, everyone looked up instantly, just in time to see his sturdy figure slamming fiercely into Meng Hao.Meng Hao waved his hand—He didn't wave his hand very fast, so even those who didn't know martial arts in the audience could clearly see that he slapped the burly Fuso man.Then...That’s all.swung his huge body up from the stage , spinning horizontally in the air, flying several meters in the air, and then, with a "plop" sound, he crashed into someone.It’s Dong Wenqiang.He is a master at the Grandmaster level!What could Meng's collision do to him?Dong W
