Special correspondent Guca reported that on January 4, 2022, the third game of the final of the 7th TWT Tencent Go Championship was played on the Tencent Wild Fox Go Network, and the Chinese teenager Wang Xinghao, who was about to turn 18, won the 195-hand victory over South Korea's "first man" Shin Jin-tan 9-dan, and won the TWT championship and 600,000 yuan in prize money 2-1, and Shen Zhenchen won the runner-up and 150,000 yuan in prize money.
This year's TWT Tencent Go Championship is divided into three stages: audition, rematch and offline finals, and the top 32 of the Wild Fox popularity list enter the semi-finals. The rematch is a five-round stepped elimination round, after five rounds of elimination, Lian Xiaojiu, Wang Xinghao 6, Shen Zhenchen 9, and Bian Xiangyi 9 dan advanced to the offline finals. In the semi-finals, Wang Xinghao's six dan and Shen Zhenchen's nine dan eliminated Lian Xiao jiu dan and Bian Xiang yi jiu dan respectively, and met for the first time in the final.
In 2021, Shin Jin-hyun, the first person in Korean Go, won five championships in South Korea (Supreme Chess Battle, GS Plus Cup, Celebrity, Dragon Star Battle, KBS Cup), and also won the Chonran Cup World Go Tournament 2-0 in the final of the World Go Tournament, becoming the double champion. In contrast, Wang Xinghao is slightly immature, only winning the Best Newcomer Award in the 2019 Weijia League, and also won the runner-up in the two rookies Wang Zhan in 2020 and 2021, and the best record in the world competition is the 8th Global Bis Cup World Go U20 Championship in 2021.
In the first two sets of the final on January 2 and 3, Wang Xinghao won the first set with 1/4 of bai, and Shen Zhenchen won the second set with bai in the middle set, pulling the score to a 1-1 draw.
Today's final game match, the big changes derived from the shen zhenchen point three three in the upper right corner, the two sides have performed many times in the network battle. Bai Qi ate the black third son with a hand on the side of the nose, but the outer two sons could not escape the attack. After some handover, the two sides formed a robbery in the upper right corner, the first chess was not robbed, the black chess was destroyed after the robbery, the chess shape was huge, and although the white chess piece was able to survive on the spot, the external situation was lost, and it was bound to be greatly constrained in future operations.
Shen Zhenchen, who had won the first hand, opened another battlefield in the lower side of the game, and gave birth to a lone chess piece, but the black chess piece could not help for a while, and turned to the lower left corner to seek the clue to enter the game. Just when Wang Xinghao continued to hold his head in the middle abdomen and intimidate the white block in the lower right, Shen Zhenchen, who had shown his excellent overall view in the second game, lost his small instrument in this game, and even intended to take care of the lone chess piece on the right after taking care of the right through the attack of the black three sons in the lower left. Wang Xinghao judged clearly, how the weight of the black three sons in the lower left was compared with the large white piece of lone chess in the lower right, so he resolutely took off the first to the lower right, and after a fierce tiger operation, he ate and lived the white four-son chess tendon on the side, became iron thick, and filled the loophole in the lower left with the trend, and also maintained the offensive attack of the white block of lone chess, and the winning rate soared to more than 95%.
When the black chess piece further scavenged the white dragon that came out of the lower right, Shen Zhenchen couldn't bear to choose a big conversion, Wang Xinghao slaughtered the dragon first, and the victory rate was infinitely close to 100%. However, later, when dealing with the left-hand lone chess, his move was slightly sticky, and the winning rate was significantly closer, and Shen Zhenchen once overtook in a corner. But today's Shen Zhenchen seems to be more impulsive, he completely ruined the last chance of the white chess piece in the middle abdomen, the two sides once again formed a big switch, the black chess piece discarded the fragments of the upper side plate, although it is huge, but the middle abdomen white chess piece is eaten but the loss is even greater, even with the white dragon who was still expected to rob and survive.
By the 195 hand, Shen Zhenchen threw a loss, Wang Xinghao almost ended the TWT final with a complete victory, starting from the initiative to launch an offensive in the lower right corner, until the mid-abdomen big change, whether it is a local sharp attack, or a decision on the direction of the overall situation, Wang Xinghao has shown surprising progress. The time has come for China's post-00s to rise, and the time for Shen Zhenchen to seek defeat alone in the post-00s chess players has come to an end.
