On the evening of September 28, the 2021 Huawei Mobile Cup China Go League 13th Round Post-Match Press Conference was held at the 2nd floor of the Tanggong Chapushi Hotel in Changxing County, Huzhou, Zhejiang Province.
The scene of the press conference
Representatives of liao yuanhe eight duan (chengdu rural commercial bank team member), Xie Ke jiu duan (su boer hangzhou team member), Fan Yin eight duan (minsheng credit card Beijing team member), Xia Chenkun seventh dan (longyuan Mingcheng Hangzhou team member), Wang Xinghao sixth section (Shanghai Jianqiao College team member), Chen Xian eight duan (Jiangsu team member), He Yuhan sixth dan (Chongqing team member), Mao Ruilong five dan (Tibet Fukang team member) 8 winning team representatives attended the post-match press conference. The press conference was presided over by Hua Xueming, vice chairman of the Chinese Weiqi Association and leader of the national Weiqi team.
Hua Xueming
Hua Xueming: Today is the thirteenth round of the 2021 Huawei Mobile Phone Cup China Go League regular season, and in my impression, the score of the Weijia is mostly 2-2, but today's eight games are actually divided into winners and losses, and there are four games 4-0. I think at this time there is a little bit of fierceness of the needle to Mai Mang, Guli's Chongqing team is not satisfied with 7 points in the third round, and wants to take another 6 points.
To sum up this round, first of all, the storm of the Shanghai Jianqiao Academy team, actually - maybe Wang Xinghao will feel that the word "actually" is not used well, and should use "originally" to achieve eight consecutive victories. Shanghai Jianqiao College team attended the press conference yesterday by Li Weiqing, today is Wang Xinghao, can be described as "Gemini constellation", due to the outstanding performance of the two of them, Shanghai Jianqiao College team eight consecutive wins reached the seventh place.
The second is three consecutive wins for Chongqing and three consecutive losses for Jiangxi Jindalai Environmental Protection Team. The winning streak has a certain relationship with the main player, Li Weiqing has won eight consecutive games, and the Shanghai team has also won eight consecutive games. Gu Zihao lost three consecutive games, and Jiangxi team also lost in these three rounds, from the first place to the fourth place. In addition, minsheng credit card Beijing team rose to third place, mainly due to Ke Jie's outstanding performance, he won nine wins in the main position, a total of 10 wins and 3 losses.
There is only one point difference between each team from sixth to eighth place, so from now on, the last two rounds are the most competitive time. I think you may be eager to hear these energetic young chess players on the stage commenting on today's performance and outlook for the last two rounds.
Liao Yuanhe
Reporter 1: Question leader Chengdu Rural Commercial Bank team Liao Yuanhe, the performance of Chengdu team this season is very good, and now it has surpassed the first place, or it is still very promising to win the regular season championship for two consecutive years. Your record this year is particularly good, 11 wins and 2 losses is the highest winning rate of all Go players, I want to ask what is the reason, what are your own experiences in training? Tell me about your playoffs last year, what are your goals for this year?
Liao Yuanhe: Our team's regular season goal this season is the top two, and now it feels more promising, and the playoff goal is of course the championship. My mentality this year is much better than last year, as long as the content of the chess is good, winning or losing is not so concerned. But what I want to say is that I may be able to do it under the armor, and other games need to be refueled.
Hua Xueming: This question is a very professional question. Liao Won-hyuk is the player with the highest winning percentage so far in this year's WeiJia, reaching 84.6%, followed by Xu Jiayang with 83%, Ke Jie, Park Tinghuan, Li Qincheng and Wang Xinghao with 77%.
What a word
Reporter 2: First ask He Yuhan, The Chongqing team has won three consecutive games at this stage, and the ranking has increased significantly, what are your plans for the last two rounds? Is there confidence in the top eight?
He Yuhan: After all, there have been three consecutive wins, there are only two rounds left, I hope to win, if I win, there is still a little hope to enter the top eight.
Mao Ruilong
Reporter 2: Ask Mao Ruilong of the Tibet Fukang team again, today your team won, the ranking has been a little forward, what do you think of the next two rounds?
Mao Ruilong: It has not been easy for our team to form a team in the past few years, because we have fought step by step from Wei B, and Wei Jia has also experienced many life and death battles in the past two years. This year the situation is still very critical, but there have been such experiences in previous years, and I hope that the young players of our team and I can play well in the end.
Wang Xinghao
Reporter 3: Ask Wang Xinghao of the Shanghai Jianqiao Academy team, I remember that Wang Xinghao was one of the youngest in the Weijia last year, and this year the Weijia has a chess player younger than you. You and the oldest master brother on your team also have the highest age difference of 22 years. I would like to ask, you have achieved very good results this year, in this process, what kind of inspiration have your brothers and elders given you? I think that "Youth Storm" should be more or less related to the words and deeds of the predecessors, please introduce the situation in this regard.
Wang Xinghao: Teacher Hu has been giving me a review since many years ago, and my progress over the years has a lot to do with the help that Teacher Hu has given me, and I am very grateful to him.
Reporter 3: Now that the back wave that is younger than you has appeared, will you have a sense of crisis, or a greater motivation?
Wang Xinghao: I just want to rush up now, I don't think about other aspects, my strength still has a lot to improve.
Hua Xueming: Just now I mentioned Hu Yaoyu, although he did not come to the press conference, I think that picture can appear in my mind, so a very pure picture with a smile on his face and a very pure go. Seeing his dedication to Go, the articles he wrote, all stemmed from his love for Go. Go is passed down from generation to generation, like The Shanghai team Hu Yaoyu and Chang Hao in front of him. As for the sense of crisis you said, everyone may have it, but young people may not be able to experience it, and the feeling of young people is only "how can I be better".
Sheiko
Reporter 4: Ask The Sheiko of the Suber Hangzhou team, please evaluate your performance this season, are you satisfied? Another question is the Ying's Cup final, which everyone cares about, and Shin Jin-chan is also your teammate, the momentum is very strong, what are the thoughts on this game.
Sheiko: In the past two years, my results in the first division have been very average, the winning percentage is just over halfway through, I am not satisfied with my performance, and I feel a bit dragging the team back. Regarding the Ying Cup, because I don't know when it will start, I am trying to prepare for the battle.
Hua Xueming: Taking this opportunity to add a little, when I heard the reporter's question, I knew that Sheiko would definitely answer "not satisfied", because my feeling has always been that Xie Ke is a very strict person who is very strict with himself. Because the Ying Cup is a four-year tournament, it is very much hoped that the final will play chess, so in fact, it is impossible to plan and there is no schedule. The players of our national team are using artificial intelligence to train "masterpieces", if Sheiko is in the Final of the Ying Cup, we will let him "enjoy" an account alone, but because the status quo is not planned, so the coaching team has temporarily cancelled his "benefit". This is about the case of the Ying cup.
Fan Yin
Reporter 4: Ask again About Fan Yin of the Minsheng Credit Card Beijing team, who won Shen Minqiu today, please also make an evaluation of this season's performance, as well as the prospects of the Minsheng team.
Fan Yin: First of all, personally, my state of the weijia and other competitions this year is not very good, but maybe there have been more competitions recently, including the nine-set Samsung Cup selection competition, which seems to have gradually found the state, and at this stage, the several sets of the weijia are still relatively satisfied. For our team, the previous goal was to strive for the top eight, but now after three consecutive wins, we may be able to turn the goal into the top four, or even consider going up.
Hua Xueming: I remember that in the first stage, your team said in an interview that the goal was to run for the championship.
Fan Yin: That should not be what I said (laughs), I don't have that much confidence, maybe Ke Jie said it.
Chen Xian
Reporter 5: Ask Chen Xian of the Jiangsu team, your team is now ranked eighth, this position is still quite dangerous, Xiao Qi's state does not seem to be particularly good, I see that today and tomorrow are Huang Yunsong as the main general, please briefly talk about your team's platoon and goals.
Chen Xian: Our team is generally the old man as the main general, but recently he is not in a good state, the rest of us who are the main general feel the same, because Yun Song has the best results, let him go first, and he is also doing very well today, so tomorrow it will be him. At the beginning, our team's goal was definitely to enter the top eight, and now at this stage, we have played three rounds and won two rounds, which is ok overall. Although the state of the old man is not very good, the three of us are OK, I hope he can adjust it, I feel that our confidence in the top eight is still relatively large.
Xia Chenkun
Reporter 5: Let me ask Xia Chenkun of the Longyuan Mingcheng Hangzhou team again, your team is now 27 points, And the Suber Hangzhou team is 28 points, is there any idea of surpassing the Suber Hangzhou team?
Xia Chenkun: Our team has the impression that it has been seven consecutive wins, but although it is said that it is a seven consecutive wins, it seems that the ranking has not risen much, and the front team has been winning. The Suber Hangzhou team is too strong, they may not even care how many times they are in the regular season, as long as they are in the top eight. And our team can squeeze forward, because if we are in the fifth or eighth place, it is more dangerous, so try to fight as much as possible when there are still two rounds in the regular season, so that the playoffs can have one less round.
Guo Wenchao
Hua Xueming: I forgot to say when I just summarized, the Longyuan Mingcheng Hangzhou team actually quietly won seven consecutive games, the Longyuan Mingcheng Hangzhou team often gives people this feeling, the team members are very low-key, do we ask the low-key coach of their team to tell us two words?
Guo Wenchao: Because the teams in front of them are too strong and the scores are not high, it is still a bit far away from the top four after seven consecutive wins. It's still very difficult for us to get into the top four, at least two more points than the other teams. But as Xiao Xia said, chess is still a field, we hope to have, and the goal of the top eight has been completed, which is equivalent to light loading, there is not much pressure, and it can go down to what extent.
Liao Yuanhe and Xie Ke
Reporter 6: I want to ask Liao Yuanhe and Xie Ke, Ding Hao and Li Weiqing did not come today, we know that China's current post-00 generation of your four chess players are at a relatively top level. The overall strength of the chess players born in 2000 is very strong, South Korea has Shin Jin-chan, I would like to ask you to talk about your views on this group of opponents, I believe that there may also be a bit of a competitive relationship between you, such as who do you think is the most difficult to deal with.
Liao Yuanhe: I think it's actually very difficult to deal with, not only what you said, but also many people. If you want to say the most difficult thing to deal with, it should still be Xiao Shen at present. As far as I am concerned, these two years have not been very satisfactory, first of all, there has been no breakthrough in the international competition, and the grade score has been quite far away by the three people you just said. My goal now is to be down-to-earth, step by step, train well, improve the technology, and have more breakthroughs in the competition in the future.
Sheiko: In fact, our generation has a lot worse grades than its predecessors. I have the impression that the post-95 chess players are at least a world champion at our age, so we can't talk about "strong" now, our results are actually very ordinary, I hope we can cheer up more.
Hua Xueming: I have the impression that this question was asked by someone during the League Last December, and it was also Asked by Sheiko, and the answer was different and the same. The chess players of their generation seem to have reached this level, but there is actually a layer of window paper that needs to be broken. For example, Shen Zhenchen, I don't know if everyone has an impression, for a long time everyone felt that he had reached the peak of strength, but there was always a layer of paper there. I think our young players also have such a process, getting to the semi-finals, the finals is an experience. This experience is very important, of course the level is more important, so hopefully they will experience more things on the basis of having a level, breaking through that layer of paper. As Chairman Lin asked at the opening ceremony at this stage, with the use of the weijia platform, young players will work harder to prove themselves.
Chen Ying
Hua Xueming: Today is the first time that the Tibetan Fukang team has come to the press conference at this stage, does coach Chen Ying have anything to say?
Chen Ying: I want to tell all my players that the regular season is over, come on and on. This year, due to some reasons, our strength was slightly weaker than in the previous two years, but the cohesion of our players was all there, and everyone was united. Every year our goal is actually to relegate, but this year we have been wandering around in the last few places, and no one has given me the opportunity to come to the press conference. So much so that today I was in a good mood when I saw our team win 3-1, and went to the Jianqiao Cup to take a spin around. If it weren't for Sina's reporter reminding me, I would have forgotten about the press conference, and she said that you are not used to losing, as if you really lost a little. But there are still two rounds in the regular season, everyone is practicing well, we are focusing on the playoffs, and we hope to continue to fight with everyone in the field of armor next year.
Hua Xueming: If you don't have any questions, today's press conference has come to an end, and I hope that everyone will thank the overall title and local organizers of the Weijia League as much as possible.
