Speaking of the king who has been here for more than a decade at the turn of the century, there is no doubt that the answer is the stone Buddha Li Changhao. The overwhelming record against almost all chess players, the number of champions, all swore to Lee Chang-ho's dynastic hegemony. However, the emergence of Choi Chul-han in 2004 has caused a looming crisis in the solid Da Li Dynasty.
In the early 2004 national hand battle, facing the prosperous Lee Chang-ho, Choi Chul-han won the championship in three consecutive sets with the first loss of one set. Immediately after the Chess Holy War, Choi Chul-han defeated Lee Chang-ho again 3-2. In just one month, he defeated the invincible Lee Chang-ho in two consecutive five-game moves. The chess world was shocked. Cui Zhehan uses his unique strong wrist to set off a bloody chess style at any time, subverting people's general understanding of Go. Man gives the title, poisonous snake.
However, Cui Zhehan's magic did not stop there. In the following year's national hand war, Choi Chul-han once again ushered in the challenge of Lee Chang-ho. This time it was cleaner and neater, and 3-0 directly rewarded Da Li with a duck egg. Three consecutive five-game moves, three victories over Big Lee.
But if Choi Chul-han really takes over the authority of Lee Chang-ho and becomes a new generation of kings, I am afraid that the chess world will not have much shock. However, Cui Zhehan not only has an average record against other domestic chess players, but also loses more than wins and wins less than many excellent Chinese chess players. In this way, the impact is very bad - obviously a chess player who looks like pure nonsense, and has not played my chess player very much, how can he grasp the stone Buddha and make a messy hammer? It can be said that many chess players have ablated Lee Chang-ho's psychological shadow, and Choi Chul-han's credit should account for at least half.
But after all, Choi was still very hot in 2004. The four-yearly Ying's Cup, since the first edition is the back garden of Korean chess players, the four heavenly kings Cao Xu Liu Li took turns to win the championship. Since Cui Zhehan violently overthrew the Lee dynasty, the Ying clan cup must prove himself. After winning consecutive victories over Naoki Yugen and Ma Xiaochun and "educating" Lee Chang-ho again, Choi Chul-han easily reached the semi-finals. In the semi-finals, there was no excessive pressure, and there was no too much pressure, winning 2-1, there was no danger.
The opponent in this final is a Chinese chess player whose chess style is very similar to Lee Chang-ho- Chang Hao. But judging from the historical confrontation records of the two sides at that time, it is obvious that it is a trumpet Lee Chang-ho. Lee Chang-ho killer, facing a trumpet Lee Chang-ho, the first crown of the Life World Series, stable, right? Cui Zhehan, the most afraid of this kind of balance chess player.
Having said all this, friends who often watch anime can immediately realize that this is simply a huge string of Flags! Whether Choi Chul-han thought so or not, I set up a Flag for him thirteen years later.
On December 26, 2004, the decisive battle between the two sides began. In the first round, Cui Zhehan adhered to the discipline of a crown - there are breakpoints that must be broken, every time three must be broken, and a chaotic fist killed the teacher. Chang Hao, sure enough, was not good at fighting. However, the second inning suddenly changed. Chang Hao was unusual, from the robbery of the prologue to the attack and killing of the dragon in the middle set, and even to the response of the winners and losers in the second half of the set, no matter whether the result was good or bad, only the most fierce one was picked. It can even be said that if you cover the name of the opponent, more than 80% of people will think that Chang Haofang is Cui Zhehan's buddha. In the first stage of the game, the two sides shook hands and made peace in the midst of the war.
In March 2005, the last three sets of the Ying Cup final resumed. Cui Zhehan, with 3-0 Lee Chang-ho's Yu Wei, vowed to take the Battle of Tianwangshan with a single blow. This game of chess is the most thrilling game in the four final games, and it is also the most painstaking game for both sides. For Chang Hao, it was a lucky and valuable win, but for Cui Zhehan, it was a regrettable defeat that missed the earth-shattering abandonment of the good game. Chang Hao's 78 hand digging is a wonderful hand to eat through the chess tendons, and the 92 hand does not make up for the upper left 40 mesh big horn to attack the middle abdomen, and it is amazing courage.
Choi Chul-han (black) vs Chang Hao
But the astonishing momentum of Cui Zhehan's 113 hands, at this moment, the poisonous snake bit his prey. Resolutely abandon the dragon with more than 80 meshes on the upper right, and ask to slaughter the white chess piece on the lower left quarter of the board. You know, this is the Battle of Tianwang Mountain of the Ying Cup! Cui Zhehan, are you really sure?
In the course of actual combat, Chang Hao was extremely dangerous. The once optimistic research room also became nervous. Indeed, although the local first sense of white chess is very elastic, black chess seems to have defects, but it can be fully supported by black chess! At this time, the two sides had fought until nearly 7 o'clock in the evening, and had been fighting on the chessboard for nearly 9 hours.
Choi Chul-han (Black) vs Chang Hao 2
Cui Zhehan, who was fined 4 points, finally played a series of defeats. 133 stabbed all the way on the left side of 135, and Bai Qi's net death; 135 robbed all the way on 134, and Bai Qi's robbery was insufficient. Two moves, as long as the next step is right, the result of the Ying Cup is likely to be flipped. As 136 fell to the chessboard, Cui Zhehan's elaborate outcast slaughter was declared bankrupt. In the fourth set 2 days later, Cui Zhehan, who had lost his sharpness, struggled under Chang Hao's thick advance and lost at 3 o'clock.
After the defeat in the Ying Cup, Choi Chul-han began to slip, and his rank score deteriorated from 2005 onwards, once slipping to nearly 20. Venomous snakes, it seems, have lost their fangs.
But Cui Zhehan is an indomitable chess player, due to childhood illness, the right ear is deaf, and the left ear is only 70% hearing, but this does not stop Cui Zhehan from fighting on the field. Cui Zhehan is also an open-minded chess player, in the Sino-Korean Tianyuan Confrontation Tournament, facing Chen Yaoye, who has won 5 consecutive victories over himself, he can smile and say: "Chen Yaoye is my big teacher, he plays well!" After losing the game 0-2, Cui Zhehan could still smile and say: "Next year I will learn from Chen Yaoye again." The following year, Cui Zhehan did not renege on his word.
Cui Zhehan, who had been silent for nearly 4 years, regained his feet where he had fallen. In the final of the sixth Ying's Cup, Choi Chul-han did not let the opportunity slip away again, won the first world championship in his life, and returned to the first place in South Korea. The humorous thing is that this time Choi Chul-han's opponent is Lee Chang-ho, who was overthrown by his own hands.
Finally insert a small tidbit, gentlemanly demeanor.
Yu Zhiying (black) vs Cui Zhehan
If Cui Zhehan hadn't been married at that time, I really thought I was pursuing a little fish. The exchange of 202 and 205, with a simple loss of 20 meshes, ended in the Ying Pan 7. Due to Korean rules, Choi Chul-han, pawn.
