In the round of 16 of the first Ennew Cup World Go Open held at the Xinxuan Seven Xiu Hotel in Langfang today, the 54-year-old male god Fang Tianfeng Lost to South Korea's post-00s Shin Jinchen Liudan, ending his legendary journey in this year's Xin'ao Cup. In the first two rounds of the competition, Fang Tianfeng won consecutive world champions Guli Jiudan and post-95 Xinruishu smiled four times, winning two consecutive victories and reaching the round of 16.
Today's game of chess, Fang Tianfeng in the left side of the game seriously miscalculated, resulting in a large piece of chess killed, only 53 hands that is, the middle hand conceded defeat. Some people joke that Gu li did not cry after seeing this result!
Figure 1, the white chess piece on the left side of the game intends to use the "big head ghost" to kill the peripheral black chess, but it is obviously a miscalculation, the large white chess piece is killed, and the chess game ends.
Fang Tianfeng has popularized Go in Tsinghua and Peking University for many years, but he has no fame, but after writing a new biography of a veteran in the New Olympic Cup, he has become a "male god" who is even hotter than Ke Jie in the arena.
In fact, compared to his winning two games of chess, the significance of popularizing Go in colleges and universities for more than ten years is not known to be much greater. If there were no Fang Tianfeng, I am afraid that the land of Tsinghua and Peking University would have been a desert for a long time.
There are currently three universities in Beijing offering go electives: Tsinghua University, Peking University and University of Science and Technology Beijing. Beijing University of Science and Technology has two classes of Go electives per semester, each with 150 students; Tsinghua university and Peking University have only one class, about 170 people. Go is popular in colleges and universities, with every class full.
However, everyone knows that the position of go in colleges and universities is the commanding height of the popularization of Go, but in recent years, only a very small number of professional chess players such as Fang Tianfeng and Xu Ying have pioneered in colleges and universities. On the one hand, this is because college Go classes are different from Go training, in addition to teaching college students to play chess, but also have a certain cultural and artistic connotation, otherwise, the school and college students will not agree; on the other hand, it is also the most important reason, that is, in colleges and universities part-time chess, according to the external teacher's class treatment is simply cold, Peking University a Go class fee of 75 yuan, Tsinghua a little more, the price increase to more than 100 yuan in these two years.
Because Fang Tianfeng does not belong to the formal teachers of Tsinghua and Peking University, it is only an external nature, there is no salary and bonus, only class time allowance, and the treatment is unimaginably low, but this is the unified class fee standard of colleges and universities. Fang Tianfeng joked: "Now only old comrades like me who have no hobbies and don't care much about money will come to do these things." ”
Where is the best point of popularity of Go? school. Primary school is suitable for learning chess, after entering middle school, because of the heavy academic task, learning chess is not realistic, but there is another position with the effect of "ascending to the heights", that is, colleges and universities, especially famous schools such as Tsinghua and Peking University. Fang Tianfeng, who has been popularizing Go in colleges and universities for many years, said: "Now the education of middle schools follows the university, and there are no Go classes in universities, so how can middle schools open Go classes?" Peking University and Tsinghua Have Go Elective Courses, and Peking University Affiliated High School and Tsinghua Affiliated High School have Go Elective Courses and Go Teams, which are actually complementary to each other. Renmin University Affiliated High School now also opens a Go class, and students learn Go without affecting their studies at all, and their grades are better. ”
Fang Tianfeng said that it cannot be said that Tsinghua and Peking University do not attach importance to Go classes, and the two famous schools have insisted on opening Go elective courses over the years, which has been attached great importance to, and the school cannot increase the time fee of Go classes alone. Not only Tsinghua and Peking University, but also many other universities also want to open Go elective courses, but they are hindered by funding and teachers. Fang Tianfeng suggested that the Chinese Chess Association should set up a fund for the popularization of Go in colleges and universities, absorb social funds to enter, train college Go teachers, and form a team. "The Chinese Chess Association always said that it should attach importance to the popularization of Go and the promotion of Go in colleges and universities, but it only stayed in words and rarely put into action. How important is it to popularize Go at Tsinghua and Peking University? In the future, these students will go to society, they are elites in various industries, if they return to Go, the Go market will not be able to catch fire? ”
