Lin Jianchao gave a comprehensive interpretation of the competition in an interview with Red Star News reporters.
He believes that this competition involves the top chess players of China, Japan and South Korea, both the older generation, which can be called the original generation of chess players, as well as middle-aged influential Mesozoic chess players, as well as the youngest new generation of chess players, as well as female chess players involved, so this is a very interesting form of competition, which should be the four generations of the world Go world.
In addition, this is the only Go tournament in China named after a living chess player. Because it is a game that transmits positive energy, but at the same time is very retrospective and interesting. Through the competition, we are to encourage everyone to learn to inherit and carry forward the spirit of Nie Weiping's Go. In the Sino-Japanese ring a few decades ago, Nie Weiping was playing against his opponents when Chinese Go was not dominant overall, which not only showed superb game technology and outstanding achievements, but more importantly, embodied a spirit of not being afraid of strong hands, calm and calm, daring to fight, and daring to win. This spirit is what our young and excellent chess players need the most, they need technology, but in the era of artificial intelligence, what is needed most is still the spirit. So we are holding this competition to let everyone learn and inherit this spirit, which is also the original intention of holding the competition. In addition, it is very beneficial for exerting the celebrity effect, further expanding the scope of popularization and promotion of Go, attracting more teenagers to join the learning array of Go, and jointly inheriting and carrying forward the excellent traditional Chinese culture.
Lin Jianchao said that the competition has been successfully held twice in Chengdu. Chengdu is a chess city with profound cultural heritage. In particular, this session is more meaningful in Du Fu Caotang. The event combines three kinds of resources, which are historical and cultural resources, rich tourism resources and Go event resources, which not only expand the influence of the event, but also contribute to the construction of Chengdu World Event City.
