On the eve of the spring of 2016, the high-profile CCTV China-Japan-South Korea Go Lunar New Year Cup competition set off a warm atmosphere around the world. However, when people were waiting for it, a familiar and friendly figure appeared on the commentary table - Tang Li, who had won the title of "The First Beauty of Go", returned to our sight again!
Although she has not appeared on the field for many years, Tang Li's love for this ancient art has not diminished in the slightest. She sat in the commentary seat, staring intently at the chessboard, and her professional and in-depth analysis was nothing short of impressive. Her wealth of chess knowledge, combined with vivid expressions, made this exciting duel even more appealing.
When the audience saw this beautiful chess player in the past, their hearts were full of emotion: time flies, although her appearance has changed slightly, her dedication and enthusiasm for Go have always been the same.
Tang Li has been deeply obsessed with this profound art since she was a child, and has firmly embarked on the road of professional chess player step by step, and finally became a veritable "No. 1 beauty of Go". Even after fading out of the professional arena, her love for the field is still burning bright.
This time as a commentator, there is no doubt that the majority of Go lovers cheered. Under Tang Li's wonderful interpretation, this China, Japan and South Korea Go battle has become more exciting.
Compared with the energetic girl back then, Tang Li now seems more calm and atmospheric. She scrutinized the game with full attention, sometimes engaging in in-depth discussions with the commentators, showing a completely different style from the past.
However, the audience is still captivated by her unique charm, as if time cannot erase her style.
Although she has not appeared on the field for many years, Tang Li's love for Go has not diminished in the slightest. She has always adhered to her persistent belief in this ancient art, and used her professionalism to present a wonderful commentary feast for the audience.
In this China, Japan and South Korea Go battle, Tang Li's return undoubtedly brought an unexpected surprise to the audience, and also fully demonstrated her unremitting pursuit of the Go career.
Tang Li, a Chongqing girl born in 1982, has shown extraordinary talent for chess since she was a child. When she was six years old, she was sent to a chess school by her father, who loved Go, and began a professional and systematic training process.
In a National Junior Go Championship, Tang Li won the runner-up with her outstanding performance and was successfully promoted to a professional chess player.
At this moment, Tang Li has attracted widespread attention in the Go world. She is not only superb in chess, but also has an outstanding face, so she is known as "the first beauty of Go".
This glorious professional chess player swept through the chess world like a stormy wave, and even the Korean chess superstar Lee Sedol fell in love with him. However, unexpectedly, at the age of sixteen, this talented girl resolutely decided to temporarily retire from the professional arena and devote herself to the popularization and promotion of Go. With her outstanding appearance and excellent professionalism, she has successfully transformed into a professional Go program host, and has won wide acclaim and attention in the industry.
Tang Li's choice undoubtedly puzzled many people. After all, she possesses enough talent to make her shine in the professional arena and become a top contender for a title. However, Tang Li chose a completely different path, devoting more time and energy to the in-depth study of chess and the dissemination and promotion of culture.
In the face of everyone's doubts, Tang Li gave her own answer. She candidly admits that a career path full of fierce competition and competition does seem too harsh for a talented woman. Although the journey of pursuing the art of Go was full of hardships, she still became the irreplaceable "No. 1 Beauty of Go" in people's hearts with her exquisite skills and elegant temperament.
At this moment, a shocking news detonated public opinion like a bombshell. This "No. 1 Beauty of Go" was honored to become the first female disciple of Nie Weiping, vice chairman of the Chinese Go Association. This legendary chess player, known as the "chess saint", accepted Tang Li as his descendant disciple for the first time, and this incident has attracted widespread attention from all walks of life.
There has been speculation about whether there is some kind of special relationship between these two outstanding figures. However, after clarification and positive responses from both sides, the truth finally came to light - it turned out that it was just a well-planned apprenticeship ceremony, and Tang Li finally won the high recognition of Nie Lao and his disciples with her chess skills and noble character.
From a genius girl to the "first beauty of Go", Tang Li's life journey can be described as ups and downs and wonderful. She has not only shown extraordinary strength in the professional arena, but also has become an eye-catching new star in the Go world with her charming style and professionalism. Even if she finally chose to say goodbye to the competitive stage, Tang Li always adhered to her love and dedication to this quintessence of the country.
In 2008, in a Go League that attracted global attention and ignited countless enthusiasm, Tang Li did not hesitate and unswervingly expressed her apprenticeship to Nie Weiping, who was known as the "Chess Saint". As the vice chairman of the Chinese Weiqi Association, Nie Weiping has a lofty status and a prominent reputation, and is a long-standing role model in Tang Li's heart.
Although Elder Nie had never accepted a female disciple before, under the influence of Tang Li's sincere and eager attitude and positive desire for knowledge, he finally decided to make an exception to accept this beautiful and moving woman into Nie Sect. For Tang Li, this is undoubtedly the fulfillment of her dream for many years. She has always admired this chess legend and longed to step inside his walls and delve deeper into the mysteries of the game.
When Tang Li's request was granted, her heart was undoubtedly excited. It is as if you are in a warm and harmonious family, and you can no longer feel the taste of loneliness. For Nie Lao, accepting Tang Li as the first female disciple is also an unprecedented challenge and attempt.
Under the strong recommendation of many of Nie Lao's protégés, Tang Li finally won the affirmation and praise of her master. The outside world was shocked, and they thought that this "chess man" must be conservative and unwilling to accept female disciples. However, the facts have proved that as long as the disciple has sufficient strength and noble character, Nie Lao has no intention of being sexist.
Under the careful guidance of Nie Lao, Tang Li's chess skills are changing with each passing day and constantly improving. She has achieved great results in various competitions at home and abroad, and has gradually grown into an outstanding Go player. This not only highlights Nie Lao's unique vision, but also confirms Tang Li's own outstanding talent and talent.
Although the master and apprentice have suffered many doubts and criticisms, they did not choose to escape from reality, but bravely faced the pressure of public opinion, and finally made the truth of the incident come to light. In the interview, Nie Lao said frankly that the reason why Tang Li was able to become his first female disciple was not only because of her outstanding appearance, but more importantly, because of her great contribution to the promotion of chess skills.
Since then, the relationship between the pair has grown closer. Nie Lao admired Tang Li's talent, and Tang Li deeply admired this chess giant. Under the careful teaching of Nie Lao, she not only made remarkable progress in chess skills, but also deeply appreciated the unique charm of Go culture. This precious master-apprentice relationship has undoubtedly become an unforgettable chapter in Tang Li's life.
Tang Li, who is dazzling in the Go world, in addition to her excellent chess skills and charming appearance, has won the warm pursuit of the audience with her unique personality charm, and has also attracted the attention of many chess players. Especially the Korean chess player Lee Sedol, who was once obsessed with her, when he learned that she had entered the marriage hall, a trace of regret inevitably emerged in his heart.
However, Tang Li's final choice of life partner was not from any hero in the chess world. In 2010, she quietly tied the knot with a CEO from a real estate company in Chongqing. Although this wealthy businessman is not as rich as the rumored net worth of hundreds of millions, he is also a wealthy local family.
Tang Li once said frankly that she expects her other half to have a deep understanding of Go, have a mature and stable personality, and know how to create a warm and romantic family atmosphere. And the real estate tycoon just met all her expectations. Although he is not a chess giant, he also knows how to appreciate Tang Li's chess skills and talent.
As soon as the marriage news was announced, it immediately aroused widespread attention from all walks of life. People have speculated about what kind of person Tang Li married. Some speculate that she married into a wealthy family, while others speculate that her husband may be a senior executive at a certain bank. Some people even broke the news that Tang Li's husband is just an ordinary office worker.
In the face of these rumors, Tang Li decisively stood up and clarified the truth. She firmly denied the so-called "mate selection criteria" previously reported by the media, and made it clear that there had never been a specific numerical requirement for height and income. It turned out that Tang Li was low-key married to a native Chongqing real estate tycoon.
Although the husband's wealth has not reached the billions level, he also belongs to the rich side. Judging from the life photos shared by Tang Li on social platforms, we can find that their family is now living in a luxury villa built by the real estate tycoon, living a leisurely life.
It is a pity that even Tang Li's mentor Nie Weiping was unable to witness the happy moment of this beloved apprentice. It turned out that this wedding was so low-key that even a chess champion like Nie Lao was not invited. However, this just highlights Tang Li's humble and low-key qualities.
From a genius girl in the past, to an athlete known as the "No. 1 Beauty in Go", to a full-time housewife who has returned to her family with glory, Tang Li's life path can be described as wonderful! Even though she has entered the palace of marriage, her enthusiasm for Go has never diminished by half.
On this fiercely competitive and controversial chess stage, Tang Li's marriage choice has undoubtedly attracted strong attention from all walks of life. Whether it's speculation that she married into a wealthy family, or that her partner is just an ordinary office worker, these rumors all show the great interest in this beautiful chess player.
However, as it turned out, Tang Li chose an outstanding entrepreneur from Chongqing's real estate industry as her lifelong partner. Although his wealth has not yet reached the level of hundreds of millions, he is undoubtedly among the local wealthy class.
Judging from the life details shared by Tang Li, their family of three is enjoying a happy life, which fully demonstrates Tang Li's low-key and humility.
After experiencing a brilliant life from a genius girl to the "first beauty of Go", Tang Li finally decided to fade out of the public eye and devote herself to the role of a full-time housewife. However, her love for Go remains the same, as if this quintessence has always been closely connected to her.
Looking to the future, perhaps Tang Li will return to the chess world in other ways and continue to contribute to this great cause.
It is worth mentioning that in 2009, Tang Li, who was originally in the limelight, suddenly disappeared from the public eye. At that time, many people speculated whether she had entered the palace of marriage and gave birth to a new life.
However, it was not until November 2010 that the "No. 1 Beauty of Go" met with netizens again through Weibo.
On Weibo, Tang Li posted a warm picture of herself holding a cute baby in her arms, and her happiness was beyond words. It turned out that this former genius girl had quietly married an outstanding entrepreneur from Chongqing's real estate industry and became a full-time housewife.
Regarding the true identity of this mysterious husband, Tang Li has been subjected to many speculations from the outside world. Some people think that he is a top executive in the banking industry, while others speculate that he is a billionaire.
However, it turns out that the real estate entrepreneur is not as wealthy as the outside world rumores, but a local real estate developer from Chongqing.
Although his family's wealth has not yet exceeded the billions mark, it is still strong enough to dominate the local wealthy class. From the family photos and short videos that Tang Li frequently shares on major social media platforms, we can get a glimpse of the family now living a leisurely and comfortable life in the Chongqing hot spring villa created by the entrepreneur.
In the face of all kinds of speculation and doubts from the outside world about her "mate selection criteria", Tang Li also publicly clarified. She vehemently denied the specific numerical requirements mentioned in previous media reports, making it clear that she had never set such a strict threshold for height and income.
Obviously, Tang Li's husband is not as wealthy as the outside world rumored, but he has successfully touched the heart of this person who enjoys the reputation of "the first beauty of Go".
After the glorious journey of transforming from a talented girl to the "No. 1 Beauty of Go", Tang Li chose to return to the ordinary and devote herself to the role of a full-time wife. Through the daily life bits and pieces she shares on social media platforms, it is not difficult for us to feel that she is now immersed in a happy family life.
As a stay-at-home mother, Tang Li always accompanies her baby son carefully and enjoys the joy of family affection. Her smile is full of happiness, showing a female image full of contentment.
Although she has faded from the public eye, Tang Li's love for Go has never diminished.
In 2016, Tang Li once again appeared on the stage of CCTV's China-Japan-South Korea Go Lunar New Year Cup, fully demonstrating her dedication to this quintessence of the country. Although the years have left some traces on her face, her professional and funny commentary style is still loved by the audience.
Perhaps in Tang Li's heart, Go has always occupied an irreplaceable position. Even though she has entered the palace of marriage and become a full-time wife, she still adheres to her love and pursuit of this gambling art.
After many years away from the public eye, Tang Li can still stand up at critical moments and provide wonderful explanations to the audience.
From a talented girl to the "No. 1 Beauty in Go", and then to a happy full-time wife, Tang Li's life trajectory is undoubtedly remarkable. Her low-key introvertedness and humility have made her still maintain her former style in her married life.
Looking to the future, the former prodigy may return to chess in a new way and contribute to this quintessential cause.
