The 6th Fujitsu Cup, held in 1993, heralded the complete rise of the Korean Wave in the world chess world. Japan has lost the laurels of the fifth consecutive hegemony, plus the Ying's Cup and the Toyo Securities Cup are also in the hands of the Koreans, and the position of world Go hegemon has changed hands. The Chinese chess players had no gains, and the goal of catching up with Japan had not yet been fully achieved, but the Goryeo legions that suddenly killed were gone.
In 1994, the 7th Fujitsu Cup was contested. Still 24 people played in this tournament, China 5, coach Nie Weiping did not participate in the game for the first time, Ma Xiaochun, Liu Xiaoguang two strong men led the young chess players Yu Bin, Zhang Wendong, and female player Hua Xueming to play together, looking forward to breaking the sixth session only one person into the quarterfinals, no one into the final four embarrassment.
Host Japan is still crowded, with eight players competing, including Koichi Kobayashi, Cho Ji-hoon, Masao Kato, Hayashi Haifeng, and Otake Hero, five super-first-class chess players, and the first two Fujitsu Cup champions Masaki Takemiya also missed the tournament for the first time. The other three Japanese players are the powerful Yoshio Ishida, Hiroshi Yamashiro and the elderly and strong Mr. Hideyuki Fujisawa, who remain the most vocal team to win the championship.
South Korea, which won the championship and runner-up in the last edition, played with six players, surpassing China for the first time. The four heavenly kings, Cao Xuanxuan, Xu Bongsu, Lee Chang-ho and Liu Chang-hyuk, together with the strong liang jae-ho and Choi Kyu-bing, are eyeing the winning champion.
Two places in Chinese Taipei belong to Lin Shengxian and Chen Guoxing, with the European representative Zaist, the North American representative McReyman and the South American representative Achirul. Their competitiveness is relatively weak, but it is not without the possibility of upsetting.
Because only Shao Weigang reached the quarterfinals in the previous edition, there was only one first-round bye in this year, giving Zhang Wendong, who won the national individual championship the previous year. The other four played in the first round, with Yu Bin drawing south Korean general Choi Gyu-byeong in an encounter.
Yu Bin, then 27, was playing in the Fujitsu Cup for the third time, losing to Cho Ji-hoon in the first round of the first edition, defeating Noriki Ieda in the first round of the fifth edition, and losing to Cho Ji-hoon in the second round.
Born in 1963, Choi Kyu-bing was a backbone of the Korean chess world, and was in good shape during that time, being selected for the first China-Korea Match in the Korean team lineup in 1994, and making his first appearance in the Fujitsu Cup, expecting to make a difference.

Yu Bin guessed that the black chess piece went first.
In the upper right formula, the white 10 jump was a popular method at that time, intended to be a mid-belly force.
Black 11 entry is a common stereotyping technique, black 13 first hand jump, black 15 demolition, the field is very large, is Yu Bin's favorite style.
Black 17 removed the side, white 18 immediately punched in.
Black 19 is slightly excessive, but white 20 is slow, walking 21 town is a vivid hand.
The following two sides went their separate ways, when the white 28 stabbed, the black 29 counterattacked, the two sides did not give in to each other, to the white 46 roughly two points.
Black 47 turned to the upper left corner, and the situation was glued.

White 4 block from this side is the occasion of the law, black 9 pick is to compete for the lead.
When the white 12 turned, the black 13 and 15 first tried the hand on the left, Yu Bin felt that it was cheap, and then returned to the 17th pull, and the two sides surrounded each other.
When the black 21 sticks, the white 22 runs to the upper right corner to hold, although this hand is not small, but it is obviously not the largest at present, and the 25th turn should be grabbed.
After the black 25 pressed first, Yu Bin quickly fixed the shape, and the black 41 was in the upper side, and the black chess set the advantage.
White 44 tests black chess, black 45 below the response is concise.
Third Spectrum 1-50 (i.e. 101-150)
Black 7 tigers live, white chess has limited income.
White 8 is the winner and loser, but the order is wrong, or should go 10 places first.
Actual combat black 9 wins, white 10 below and then go, white 18 broken, black 19 can be connected to the outside.
Although the white 20 to 24 has a corner, the periphery has been damaged first and is not cheap.
White 28 blocked the left side of the black chess, Yu Bin did the work concisely, or the first hand.
Black 45 pressed to, although the advantage is not large, but the black chess has won the game.
Fourth Spectrum 1-66 (i.e. 151-216)
White 6 and black 7 form a transition, roughly equivalent.
Cui Guibing's officials were very tenacious, and there was no complicated place on the chessboard.
In the end, the white chess won the single robbery, the black chess had to make up a hand at the bottom left, the plate surface was 7 more eyes, and Yu Bin won 1 and a half eyes.
In this game of chess, the two sides competed in skill, Yu Bin was superior in skill, and the soldiers won the victory without bloodshed. This is his second victory in the Fujitsu Cup, and he has successfully advanced to the second round, can he make a new breakthrough?
Judging from Choi Kyu-bing's performance in this game, at that time, in addition to the four heavenly kings in South Korea, other chess players should have a slight gap compared with China's first-class strong and powerful. Eighteen years later, the two met again at the 17th Samsung Cup qualifiers in 2012, and Yu Bin won.
