Preface
Nie Weiping is a famous chess saint, but his eldest son did not follow his surname, but was called Kong Lingwen.
In addition, Kong Lingwen also changed to Japanese nationality, married a Japanese wife, and even said that he would never let his child's surname Nie, what happened between them to make him say such a decisive word?
His parents divorced and he went to Japan with his mother
Kong Lingwen's relationship with his father broke up and he had to start from his parents' generation, Kong Lingwen's mother's name is Kong Xiangming, she and Nie Weiping are both chess players, when the two met, one was 10 years old and the other was 13 years old.
In 1973, the country set up a Go training team, and both of them entered the team by virtue of their strength.
In terms of feelings, Kong Xiangming is very family-oriented, obviously she was once a famous Go player, but she chose to sacrifice her career for the sake of her family, and took care of her husband in all aspects, what to wear, what to eat, etc. will be prepared in advance.
Soon their son was also born, and Kong Lingwen was still called Nie Yuncong at that time, but this life only lasted until 1991. The most direct reason for the breakdown of their marriage was Nie Weiping's emotional infidelity.
In a fit of anger, Kong Xiangming divorced, took his son to Japan, and changed his son's name and surname Kong Lingwen, and also changed his nationality. At that time, Kong Lingwen was 10 years old, and his parents were famous chess players, and the media would also be reported by the media.
He must have been able to perceive it at home, and since then, the seeds of "resentment" towards his father have been planted in his heart.
Learn Go and aspire to surpass my father
Influenced by the family atmosphere, Kong Lingwen began to learn Go at the age of 5, but at that time he was still in school normally and had no intention of becoming a professional chess player.
made this decision that when Kong Lingwen first arrived in Japan, he was still quite aggrieved in his heart, and he also knew that his mother's difficulties were not easy, and his dissatisfaction with his father prompted Kong Lingwen to become a professional chess player and wanted to defeat him in the field that his father was good at.
Kong Xiangming originally refused, she knew the hardships and difficulties of playing chess, and she didn't want her son to live like this again. But Kong Lingwen was very persistent.
The mother and son agreed that if Kong Lingwen did not enter the section before he became an adult, he would not be able to take a career path, and would return to school to continue his studies and take the university entrance examination.
This kid is really competitive, studied hard for 8 months, and entered the section at the age of 16, which was a big upset in that competition. At the age of 26, he was promoted to the sixth dan. He is indeed talented in learning chess, but judging from the formal age of learning chess, it is still too late.
In 2003, when Kong Lingwen participated in a Go competition, reporters would still ask him about his father. Kong Lingwen lost that game, and he thought it was a good workout for himself.
Living in Japan for a long time has also made his Chinese level regress a little, and he often pauses when talking during interviews, as if he is comprehensively combing to see how to say it.
Looking at his face, the reporter said to him: You really look like your father. Kong Lingwen did not speak, and the reporter asked him if he would still have contact with his father, and he said that he had no contact with his father Nie Weiping.
It can be seen that when Kong Lingwen was a child, the affairs of the elders in the family still had a great impact on him, and he did not let go of his feelings as he grew older. Fortunately, by his side, he still has his own family to rely on.
Settle down in Japan and get married
According to media reports, Kong Lingwen was able to marry his wife, thanks to his father-in-law Kobayashi Jue, the two had contact during the competition, and the contact became more and more after that.
After many chats, Kobayashi Jue and Kong Lingwen both felt very close to each other, and Kong Lingwen often told his mother about Kobayashi Jue when he returned home. Kobayashi Satoru has two daughters in his family.
Because Kong Lingwen often visited Kobayashi Jue's house, Kong Lingwen gradually got acquainted with his two daughters. In 2000, the outside world didn't know about Kong Lingwen and Xiaolin's family and daughter, so they said bad things about Kong Lingwen in front of Xiaolin Jue.
In front of all the people he knows, Kobayashi Jue has a feeling of being as warm as jade, and he treats people very appropriately, who knew that Kobayashi Jue would do it that day!
Because of the rumors, some chess players began to talk about Kong Lingwen, and Kobayashi Jue was persuaded at first, saying that this rumor was not necessarily true, I don't know if it was because of the wine, and the other party became unpleasant when he said it.
Kobayashi Jue was angry, so he smashed the wine glass on the other party's face, bleeding on the spot, and was sent to the hospital with three stitches, because of this incident, Kobayashi Jue was also suspended by the Japanese Chess Academy for a year.
The matter of these two children has not yet been completed, and it seems that the family relationship has been handled very well. In 2003, Kobayashi Jue's eldest daughter Kobayashi Kiyoya was just 18 years old, and the two got engaged. and set the wedding date until the end of that year.
When the wedding date was set, Kong Lingwen called his father Nie Weiping in advance to inform him of the incident, but at that time, his father's new wife's pregnant mobile phone was basically turned off, and the two did not get in touch.
Later, Kong Lingwen was about to get married, and Nie Weiping only found out about it, but even if he went to apply for a visa at that time, it was too late. Unable to attend in person, Nie Weiping asked an old friend to help give his son a gift.
Kong Lingwen was very resolute when he found out, saying that he would not accept a penny. Regarding the fact that his daughter-in-law is Japanese, Nie Weiping also has something to say. He thinks that his daughter-in-law is good, and she feels very virtuous, and his only regret is that he is Japanese.
After Kong Lingwen got married, he soon had his own son, Kong Dezhi, and the reporter asked like "provoking trouble": If he had another child, would he have his surname Nie? Kong Lingwen said very bluntly: "Definitely not!"
And the relationship between the father and son eased because Nie Weiping was diagnosed with rectal cancer. In July 2013, Nie Weiping obviously felt unwell, but at that time, in order to promote Go culture, he still gave priority to participating in the event.
After being diagnosed, he has been actively treated, and Kong Lingwen also hurried over to take turns with Nie Weiping's other family members in the hospital after knowing it.
He was very concerned about his father's condition, and would take the pathology report to the Japanese doctor for questioning. The relationship between father and son has also eased.
After so many years, Kong Lingwen can be regarded as inheriting his father's "mantle", constantly working hard for the Go culture, and also serving as a Sino-Japanese friendship special chess player, making great contributions to the Go culture.
epilogue
Kong Lingwen's incident is also caused by many factors, no matter what has been experienced, but things have happened. Judging from his behavior in the world, he is more or less relieved.
I hope that in the future, he can have a happy family and make more outstanding contributions to the promotion of Go culture.
