In 1984, Hu Ronghua became the president of the Shanghai Chess Academy, and in 1986, the Shanghai Municipal Sports Commission issued a letter of appointment to invite Hu Ronghua to serve as the head coach of Shanghai. After Xu Tianli retired due to old age and physical decline, Ouyang Qilin and several other chess players transferred to Hu Ronghua's door, because Hu Ronghua himself was still fighting on the front line and did not have much energy to cultivate so many new people, so Hu Ronghua could only be selectively cultivated, and the ones who made Hu Ronghua pay the most effort were of course Xie Jing and Sun Yongzheng.
Sun Yongzheng was born in Shanghai in November 1981, and Sun Yongzheng was born at a time when Hu Ronghua was at a low ebb, perhaps this is the fate between them. When Sun Yongzheng was young, he went to school at Wuzhen Road Primary School, and chess education is a traditional feature of Wuzhen Road Primary School, where Sun Yongzheng was instructed by chess master Ge Weipu.
In 1996, 15-year-old Sun Yongzheng was lucky enough to become Hu Ronghua's student, that year, due to the replacement of the Shanghai team, Sun Yongzheng had the opportunity to be recruited to the team to participate in the national team competition, when going out to play, Hu Ronghua intended to sleep in a room with Sun Yongzheng, Hu Ronghua felt that this could better guide Sun Yongzheng. Sun Yongzheng is more introverted and rarely communicates with people in peacetime, but Sun Yongzheng cherishes the opportunity to get along with Hu Ronghua, and often takes the initiative to ask Hu Ronghua about some chess problems. Hu Ronghua saw that Sun Yongzheng was smart and studious, and indeed a rare chess talent, so at the end of 1999, he officially recruited Sun Yong to join the team.
Sun Yongzheng was very grateful to Hu Ronghua for his "wisdom and wisdom to recognize heroes", so he worked very hard to learn chess to repay Hu Ronghua's kindness, and Sun Yongzheng often "smelled the chicken dancing" during the years of learning chess, and went to bed in the next quarter of the month. Hard work pays off! In 2001, sun Yongzheng, who had just turned 20, won the third place in the national chess individual competition, which was almost the same as the grandmasters Lin Hongmin and Wan Chunlin in the Shanghai team.
Around 2001, there were several young people in the Chinese chess world who improved their performances very quickly, and Sun Yongzheng, who was just beginning to show his strength in the national competition, together with Wang Bin, Nie Tiewen and Guangdong's rhubarb, was called the "Four Little Dragons" of the chess world, and all four of them were considered to be the new generation of chess players who were most likely to win the national championship in the near future. The Shanghai chess community is very happy to see the strong rise of Sun Yongzheng, and they look forward to Sun Yongzheng winning the national chess individual championship as soon as possible! But no one thought that this championship was always as unattainable as the water moon in the mirror for Sun Yongzheng.
Hu Ronghua believes that Sun Yongzheng is calm and domineering, and although his achievements have always been relatively stable, the lethality of chess is not enough. Hu Ronghua believes: If you don't dare to kill, if you don't dare to win, the inspiration will not come out; if you want to kill, the inspiration will follow. To truly ascend to the throne of the champion, you need to have the courage to sacrifice yourself when you are at the door, and Although Sun Yongzheng is a full book of ten thousand treasures, he lacks this domineering spirit. Sun Yongzheng also knows where his problems lie, but the country is easy to change, the nature is difficult to move, and Sun Yongzheng can't change it if he wants to. Hu Ronghua was anxious in his heart, and for this reason, Hu Ronghua repeatedly talked to Sun Yongzheng.
In the 2011 Xiangjia League, Sun Yongzheng, who had been performing relatively steadily before, always played abnormally at key moments, and after the end of the league, Hu Ronghua criticized Sun Yongzheng fiercely in front of his face, and Zhang Guoqiang, director of the Shanghai Chess and Card Management Center, worried after hearing the news: Is the criticism too heavy?
Sun Yongzheng woke up like a dream after painful thinking, and won the championship in the first national hand competition held in Wenling next! The first National Hand Competition gathered the top 8 super-first-class chess players in China, and the competition can be described as extremely fierce! What is even more surprising is that in the next national individual competition, Sun Yongzheng, who knows shame and courage, has passed the hurdles and won the championship! This championship is a great comfort for Sun Yongzheng, who has just entered the year of establishment.
For the national chess individual competition, Sun Yongzheng heeded the advice of Hu Ronghua and the leaders of the Shanghai Chess Academy, and with the support of the families of both sides, postponed the marriage. Sun Yongzheng, who broke the ship, went forward and finally won the championship! At this time, Hu Ronghua, who was coldly watching the colorful world from the sidelines, thought: For Sun Yongzheng, who has entered an advanced age, there is still a long way to go to become a real "king" from the championship...
