In this year's Chunlan Cup final, 28-year-old Tang Weixing fought hard in two sets, missing many wins and losing 0-2 to South Korea's first man, 00 days later, Shin Jin-chan. After the game, Tang Weixing lamented that his age and calculation power were not as good as before. But in the just-concluded Samsung Cup final, park Tinghuan, also 28 years old, won his fifth world championship after losing the first set in two consecutive sets to reverse the sun-in-the-day Shin Jin-chan 2-1.
When Park Tinghuan debuted, it was the glue period of the Sino-Korean Go competition, and several waves of chess players such as Gu Li, Chen Yaoye, Tang Weixing, ke Jie and so on were perfectly handed over, and Chinese Go gradually surpassed South Korea by virtue of its thickness. With the retirement of Lee Sedol, Park Tinghuan, as the new leader of Korean Go, is even more targeted. Compared with the distinct individual and chess styles such as Cao Xuanxuan, Lee Chang-ho, and Lee Sedol, Park Tinghuan has been criticized as having a soft chess style and easy to drop the chain at critical moments. For example, in many world competitions, in the first sino-Korean competition with Ke Jie, Ke Jie is often the last person to laugh. Park Tinghuan's worst defeat on the world stage was in the Final of the Ying's Cup, known as the Olympic Games of the Go World, Park Tinghuan reached the final twice, but was blocked by Fan Tingyu and Tang Weixing. Both finals, Park Ting-hwan had a clear chance of winning, but multiple tricks made him smart and relegated to the second place.
Despite this, Park won one world championship each in the Fujitsu Cup, Dream Lily Cup, LG Cup and Chunlan Cup, proving that although he was not as bright as the leaders of previous generations, he was strong enough to make any opponent jealous. In this year's Samsung Cup, Park Tinghuan defeated four Chinese chess players, Li Weiqing, Mi Yuting, Lian Xiao and Zhao Chenyu, and met Shin Jinchen in the final. Let the Chinese chess players' six consecutive championships in the Three Star Cup end early, and Park Tinghuan is still a barrier that is difficult for Chinese chess players to cross. As for Shen Zhenchen, as of this Samsung Cup, the 2021 World Series has maintained a complete victory over Chinese chess players.
In the past two years of competition between south Korean two males, starting from last year's lg cup final Shin Jin-chan's clean sheet Park Tinghuan, Shin Jin-chan crushed Park Tinghuan. In this Samsung Cup, Shen Zhenchen defeated Xie Erhao, Fan Tingyu, Han Shengzhou and Yang Dingxin in the first four rounds to come to the final of his seventh World Series, whether it is chess fans or the media, they are one-sidedly optimistic about Shen Zhenchen. As the new leader of South Korea, if he can defeat Park Young-hwan again to win the championship, Shin Jin-hyun won two world championships in a year, becoming the best chess player in the chess world today. However, Park Ting-hwan's successful blockade once again proved that the handover of the scepter was never so easy to complete, and the former South Korean leader could still win the championship.
Like Park Tinghuan, the previous generation of chess players Chang Hao had a similar experience. In the era of Lee Chang-ho, Chang Hao was repeatedly rubbed. However, the runner-up of the world series did not knock down Chang Hao, and Chang Hao won his first world championship at the age of 29 and a third world championship at the age of 33. Listening to the thunder in the silent place, Chang Hao's patience and hard work were praised by the champion. Similarly, when Go entered the AI era, 28 years old is already an advanced age, Park Young-hwan still uses unremitting efforts to bring himself a fifth world championship. Shin Jin-chan's undefeated words in the foreign war of the World Series are still in his ears, and Park Tinghuan used a world series final civil war to teach Shin Jin-chan a lesson: You have done it, and in the civil war, Park Tinghuan can still insert a knife at any time. The 28-year-old Park Tinghuan, just like Cho Hyun, Liu Chang Hyuk, and Park Yongxun in the Lee Chang-ho period, not only remained vigilant during the civil war, but also entered the hall to pick up the crown when Lee Chang-ho fell during the foreign war. Park Tinghuan of Shin's time was still the most effective helper when competing with Chinese chess players.
Since Cao Xuanxuan broke through the Sino-Japanese barrier to obtain the Ying Cup, Korean Go has led the way in the three-country struggle between China, Japan and South Korea for more than ten years, and the winners and losers from generation to generation have been passed on. In contrast, Chinese Go did not gradually catch up and form a counter-superiority until the new century. However, the so-called no advance is retreat, in the past year, the overall performance of Chinese Go is worrying. Under the good situation of the Nongshim Cup, He was cleared by Shen Zhenchen, Ke Jie won the lg cup final and won a set by Shen Minzhen, and Tang Weixing faced Shen Zhenchen in the final of the Chunlan Cup. In this year's Samsung Cup, Ke Jie lost to the post-80s veteran Kim Ji-seok in the first round. In the second round of seven matches between China and South Korea, China won 2 and lost 5, and Mi Yuting, Fan Tingyu and so on all fell. In the semifinals, Zhao Chenyu and Yang Dingxin lost to Park Tinghuan and Shin Jin-chan respectively. The thickness is not thick, the sharpness is not sharp, and there is a risk of falling behind again in the pk with South Korea. This time Park Tinghuan won the championship, it is a wake-up call to the national players: compared with the growth of age, always maintaining an enterprising spirit is the only way to win or lose.
Kung Fu is in addition to chess, 28-year-old Park Tinghuan gave a lesson to the young Shin Jin-chan, why not give a lesson to Chinese chess players? Look at South Korea's post-80s Won Sung-joon, Kim Ji-seok and 28-year-old Park Tinghuan, who is still at the top, and then look at the premature decline of Chinese chess players, there is no harm without comparison. It has to be said that from Cho Hwan-hyun, Seo Bong-so, Lee Chang-ho, Lee Sedol to Park Young-hwan, the efforts of South Korean leaders in chess are indeed worthy of study and reflection by national players. #三星杯最新战况 #
