In history, what is the story of Jiang Zhujiu?

Mr. Jiang Zhujiu is a Chinese professional nine-dan Go player, a Go master, and a Go master.

At the end of 2011, Jiang Zhujiu and Rui Naiwei, the famous eighteen-dan couple of Go, ended their more than 20-year sojourn in a foreign land and returned to Shanghai to settle down. This national Go player, who inherited the era of Nie Weiping and Ma Xiaochun, was once famous for his five consecutive victories in the first Sino-Japanese Go Tournament in the 80s of the last century. In the more than 20 years since then, he has been busy with something, and we met him in a Go classroom in Shanghai, which is a new stop in his chess life. Fans back then, and now parents are all bringing their children to visit. In a small and brightly colored building in Minhang District, Jiang Zhujiu's Jiang Rui Go education class is located here, and since September 11, "Jiuduan Chess players teach you to get started, start here," has become a new thing with far-reaching significance in Shanghai's Go education. With the strong support of the Minhang District Education Bureau, 22 schools in the district have opened Go interest classes, and there are now more than 7,000 students and teachers under the guidance of Jiang Zhujiu, covering the beginner class with zero foundation to the advanced class with amateur rank. Unlike some professional Go dojos in Beijing, Jiang Zhujiu's aim is that children do not have to follow a professional path to learn chess, but mainly quality education. The reason why Go is a little different from others is that it has more frustration education, he will lose, there is always a winner and a loser in the two games, he has to accept this thing, and he can't avoid it, in other words, there are many children who may be the most direct to help him, and the rest of us also emphasize the etiquette culture of Go, to teach him to respect people, respect opponents, respect the game he plays, and slowly guide him and make him realize that he actually respects himself. Arrange your chess pieces, stand up, bow to each other, turn around and bow to the parents sitting in the back row, before the class can be dismissed, this is Jiang Zhujiu's reference to the Japanese and South Korean Go education philosophy, the rules set for each student and parents, here, every chess piece is alive, every child with a different personality looks so focused and happy in Jiang Zhujiu's lens. These are the process of our students playing chess, and just finished playing chess when the photos were taken, I think I am happier what, you see this is when they play chess, you can see, no matter what stage of the child, when they watch chess, that look is very good, we do not require him to sit very straight, you may be able to see some children sitting a little crooked or something, it doesn't matter, as long as his attention is on chess, his expression is very beautiful, Most of these are expressions when playing chess, of course, this one is a bit silly, this is himself. My feeling is that children are generally very cute, and their own philosophy is, every child is a genius, but he can embody different aspects, too quiet children, parents often tell themselves, at home he does not speak, this child is rarely talking, he said that after guiding him in chess, we have a child in chess rarely hear him speak, suddenly one day he said to himself, teacher I can eat him to death in this chess, I said to myself, you found no, he used chess to express his thoughts, Slowly he became cheerful, he used chess instead of a place, and his self-confidence was revealed. Some parents said to themselves, "My child is not improving, because the parents don't know chess, and they say that I really don't know, but my child has been studying for a long time, and they say that this is the biggest compliment to me." Today's children have a rich variety of choices and gorgeous dreams, but Jiang Zhujiu 40 years ago faced a completely different future, so what was the reason for him to enter this black and white world. I feel that I am very similar to Rui Naiwei, that is, when we were the youngest, we may not have figured out what we liked, in this case, we were hazy and confused, in fact, I chose one that I liked, that is, I chose one I liked, but I didn't choose it, and the situation forced it.

In 1962, Jiang Zhujiu was born in Taiyuan, Shanxi Province in a Go family, and his grandfather Jiang Runjia made a living by practicing medicine and loved Go. At the age of five, Jiang Zhujiu was sent to study in a Go class. In 1973, he entered the children's group of the Shanxi provincial team. We will go to Xinhualing Stadium for training, and we will subsidize you with a meal in the evening, this meal is a white steamed bun of two taels, add a little vegetables, and then Wotou can eat as much as you want. Before this, I remember very deeply, because we have four children in our family, in 1973 and 1974, each person's ration in Taiyuan was only 35% of fine grain, so the fine grain was not enough to eat, so I went to Xinhualing to go to the sports school, and subsidized that meal, which can ensure that even if you eat less at noon a day, you also know that there is a full meal waiting for you at night. Jiang Zhujiu devoted himself to studying Go, casting teachers everywhere, and learning art at his own expense. In 1978, he came to the national Go training team, but he always felt that his chess was different from others, and some people commented that he was a wild man. The reason why I say that my way is more wild is that we have no masters in Shanxi, and soon my brother and Yang Jinhua are the best, and then I have become a master in Shanxi, this is a terrible thing, you are in a small place, and then you are relying on yourself to explore, then we have a period of time to go to Jiangnan to learn, in the winter of Shanghai have frostbite on your hands and feet, in the process of learning chess, you first came into contact with the wild road, you did not come into contact with formal training methods. Saying that you are desperate Saburo also refers to the style of chess, in this case you can only use stupid methods, you are not very good at the martial arts routines that come up, what bright moves, you just find a way to use brute force, find a way to lead the game to the battle, because when fighting, it is the time when those theories are used the least, it is completely dependent on the accumulation and hard work in peacetime, and rely on the concentration and thinking power when you play the game, in this case, I think maybe everyone says that. In the 80s of the last century, the early days of the resumption of diplomatic relations between China and Japan, the Sino-Japanese Go exchanges with a deep origin gradually became frequent, in order to publicize and popularize the art of Go, in 1984, the first Sino-Japanese Go Tournament hosted by the Chinese Chess Academy and the Japanese Chess Academy kicked off. We are learning Japanese chess, the layout theory must be the master is powerful, the copycat version is difficult for you to get the genuine version, you know that your weakness is the layout, you try to use the layout as little as possible, try to shorten the layout time, as close as possible to fight, in fact, in 1980, 1982 I had a good performance against the Japanese, the pre-game expectation is that we will lose, but how bad the defeat is, our Chinese team predicts that it can win five sets is the victory, it seems to be so decided at the time. In the early days of the country, the Chinese needed to prove themselves with victory, but they were won by the Japanese side in the first game, but their victory was quickly disrupted by a dark horse, and Jiang Zhujiu won the second game cleanly. This photo is during the first Sino-Japanese Ring Match, he just won the first set, when he caught up with Mr. Fujisawa Hideyuki to visit China, and when he was not playing the second game, he accompanied him to Guilin before going to Japan, which may be seen by everyone, we are so young, you see that even Mr. Hua Yigang is so young, that Fujisawa Hideyuki, especially after he arrived in Japan, the opponent of the game about Kobayashi Jue's chess characteristics, layout style, etc., taught himself hand-in-hand, It was an indispensable contribution to the growth of the level of Chinese chess players at that time, and I felt that this photo made me feel very warm. When I go to Japan to play in Japan, I will send people away, the former president of the "New Sports" magazine Hao Keqiang said, Zhujiu, next time you want to come back, I will pick you up, this means that if you want to win two games in a row and come back alive, then I will pick you up, ask yourself what you think, that will "sink Yoshino" is a line in the movie "Sino-Japanese War", there are few films that will be watched, and I am very impressed by it, I like Deng Shichang's sentence more, because you can't help it, you can't beat others, you have any way, just hit, he asked himself what you think, I said that I was ready to "sink Yoshino". He said that you are going to win a few games, and he told Mr. Hao Keqiang that I am going to Hong Kong, and if I win two sets in a row, the game at that stage will be in Hong Kong, so Mr. Hao Keqiang may prefer his own personality. Under the breakthrough of Jiang Zhujiu, Noriki Ida, Satoru Kobayashi, Shuzo Awaji, Satoshi Kataoka, Akira Ishida, the five Japanese generals fell off their horses one after another, causing a national sensation, and the Japanese chess community was also shocked, calling him a terrible bone. Especially in 1985, when Jiang Zhujiu and Satoshi Kataoka were playing in Shanghai, the Yangtze River Theater not far away was overcrowded. Because the project was not broadcast on TV at that time, there was a very famous chess teacher named Cao Zhilin in Shanghai, he was very young at that time and played well, maybe we felt that he was more wonderful than Zhou Libo now. Maybe that game of chess in the afternoon, when his situation is favorable, but it is a big kill and slash chess, a little good-looking, he first kills the other party, and then he doesn't kill it, but the interests of his own surroundings are relatively large, and then he goes deep into his big empty army alone, he comes to kill himself, and he lives a big life by himself, Cao Zhilin is probably talking about this paragraph, he is a drama actor. When it was almost over, then we finished playing first, he didn't say, we went in, after entering, the audience didn't pay attention at first, and finally he announced that I won, the drama was very strong, and as a result, I couldn't get out of the signature, the Yangtze River Theater was densely packed, and we still had to walk from the passage, and after entering, it was an ordinary theater, and after entering, we had to pass through the entire audience to reach the stage, and when we finished talking about chess and wanted to go out, as long as a dozen people embraced, everyone didn't go, and finally it became all crowded there.

At the end of 1985, after seven hours of fierce battle, the first Sino-Japanese Go Tournament, which lasted more than a year, finally came to an end, and the Chinese team finally won the game. At that time, it was really good to win chess, that is, you had more opportunities to play, because there would be selection, but unlike now all competitions are based on selection, when you win this game, you are actually a little bit of an advantage, it doesn't matter if you lose this game, you have the next time, unlike before the ring match, it is indeed a little nervous, you lose this, you may not have a chance in a year or two. Jiang Zhujiu's teaching career started in the United States, and in 1990, he went to San Francisco alone, and most of his luggage was loaded with books, chessboards and chess pieces. I think it's a big change from life, it may be a little difficult for a while, because the athletes in that group feel like they are rich in China, and I think we may have it at that time, because things are cheap, and we often go abroad, every time we come back with a big item, I feel very rich, invite guests to eat or something, although I started to earn dollars after going to the United States, but I have to get everything by myself, that is a little difficult, the most important thing is to teach chess, earn some living expenses, and let myself go to school. The main thing is that if you go on like this, you don't have to think about the game anymore. Because the chess player has left the competition environment, you really can't compare, anyway, I remember that I may have been more than half a year to a year, and I have become very ugly, growing more than 30 pounds, nothing is to eat, exercise very little, English is improving, teaching chess is also teaching, but maybe Go is going to leave you, or you will not be able to play chess again in this life, and you will no longer be able to play chess.

In order to survive and popularize Go, Jiang Zhujiu gradually learned to sell himself, learned to negotiate prices with people, and learned to change the way he used to speak, not directly pointing out mistakes, but focusing on encouragement and interaction. The professional nine-dan teaching introduction to Go quickly attracted many chess fans, including the president of the American Mathematical Association, doctors, ordinary white-collar workers, and children. I think that the biggest help for me in the United States is that American children are more cheerful in learning, their whole education is open, encourage him to learn what he likes, some children like to enclose the ground, and tell him that you enclose the ground so widely, the child thinks that I am right, the teacher said that I am right to enclose the ground, but I can still improve; Some children like to kill, and they like to catch others and kill indiscriminately, and they will tell him, you first learn to protect yourself in the process of killing, then you protect yourself first, and you can kill each other, which refers to the teacher's intentions, in fact, after I taught it like this, one is that I am happier and more relaxed.
