Let's start by making up a scene, or imagining a picture.
Chess player Qiu Jun leaned over the chessboard, with a sad look. His opponent Zhou Heyang's face was slightly calm, and at this time, the staff who did not understand chess next to him must have thought that Qiu Jun's situation was unfavorable, and perhaps he should concede defeat immediately.
In the middle of the game, Qiu Jun finally shot, he played a hand tendon, Zhou Heyang Jiudan was suddenly full of shock, obviously Zhou Heyang had miscalculated here.
After simply coping with two moves, Zhou Heyang conceded defeat in the middle of the game.
After the game, the reporter of the layman asked Zhou Heyang a very white-necked question: Why did you concede defeat? Can the situation hold out a little longer, or maybe wait for an opportunity?
Zhou Heyang said that when the chess was played to that point, it should be over.
What I want to say is: this reporter really should improve the level of business, otherwise it is still a change of business.
The enlightenment brought by Zhou Heyang's conceding defeat is that sometimes, when the chess is played to that point, it should be over. Maybe sometimes you will encounter Awaji Shuzo's self-tightening and being mentioned by Ma Xiaochun about chess tendons, but it is always a bit of a victory, like snatching rice from someone else's bowl to eat.
He said in his speech that although Go is a sports competition, of course, it needs to be fought with all its might, and it is not given up until the end, but Go is also a culture and art, and the beauty of the universal is a metaphor in the chess game, and such connotations are far from being summarized by the word victory and defeat.
Professional chess players must have wrong moves, and there must be unremitting efforts to recover their disadvantages, but if the situation has been destroyed, it is time to end.
In fact, the professional chess player's chess score is to be publicized, it is both an examination answer sheet and a work of art, and it can be passed on to future generations, so professional chess players have the responsibility to win, as well as the obligation to maintain art.

Zhou Heyang
Based on the 12th NEC Cup Go Tournament Quarterfinals, Qiu Jun's eight dan white, Zhou Heyang's nine dan black, 150 hands, white in the middle of the game, played in Changchun on August 19, 2006.
Basic picture situation: Qiu Jun's eight-dan white 2-6 shot, Zhou Heyang's nine-dan suddenly changed color, because things were not good.
Refer to Figure 1: After the white chess rolls and packs, the black chess loses a lot. As a result, I lost the courage to go on.
Lee Sedol Nine Duan
To give another example, Zhou Heyang once had a brilliant record when he was young, sniping three times like lee chang-ho, a stone Buddha in the sky, almost becoming a bitter hand of the other side, 4:0 zero sheet Chang Hao won the title of chess saint, Fujitsu Cup semi-final eliminated Lee Sedol, in this game, he and Lee Sedol met again in a narrow way. Based on the semi-finals of the 5th LG Cup World Go Championship, Lee Sedol was played in Busan, South Korea, with 156 hands and a white mid-game win.
Basic picture situation: Zhou Heyang, who is now holding the black, has the advantage, Li Shishi is looking at a black chess piece below, and Zhou Heyang is an advantageous situation as long as he works. Black 4 lost, thinking too simply.
Actual combat figure 1: Li Shishi 5, 7 shot, the lower side actually died, Zhou Heyang can only concede defeat,
Refer to Figure 2: Zhou Heyang should be in place, white 2, black 3, black can be a live chess, so, is a fine chess situation, black wins a larger side.
Zhou Heyang's encounter was very tragic, and there was only one order exchange from victory. But Zhou Heyang's enlightenment to us is that once you understand that you have made irreparable mistakes, then you can bear it alone. Conceding defeat is a wise choice.
