In modern Go, the most accomplished master is Master Wu Qingyuan, but it is Mr. Hideyuki Fujisawa who has helped Chinese Go the most, or even promoted the great development of Chinese Go.
Hideyuki Fujisawa was born in 1925 and died in 2009. He won a total of 25 major championships in his career, not only was he the first celebrity in Japan, but also from 1976 to 1982, he became the first "honorary chess saint" in the Japanese Go world, and it can be said that Hideyuki Fujisawa was the first Japanese Go player and the first person in the world during that period. What is even more surprising is that in 1992, at the age of 67, Hideyuki Fujisawa defeated Kobayashi Koichi 3:2 to defend the throne champion, setting a record for the highest age to win the title of the tournament, Koichi Kobayashi was a Japanese chess saint and celebrity, the first person in Japanese Go, and one of the strongest Go players in the world at that time; in the ninth Fujitsu Cup in 1996, 71-year-old Hideyuki Fujisawa defeated China's Cao Dayuan to reach the final eight of the Fujitsu Cup, becoming the oldest quarter-finalist in the World Championship of Go. These two records are simply unimaginable now, and I am afraid that they are unprecedented.
From 1981 onwards, Hideyuki Fujisawa began to organize the "Hideyuki Legion" to go to China for Go exchanges, and the members of the Hideyuki Legion were almost all famous Japanese generals, including Masaki Takemiya and others. The "Xiuxing Legion" has visited China a total of 14 times for exchanges. The most touching thing is that Mr. Hideyuki Fujisawa organized a group to China at his own expense to help China improve Go, and he was also saddled with a huge amount at that time. Such a spirit and style is entirely internationalist.
The arrival of the "Xiuxing Legion" has helped Chinese Go to make a qualitative leap and played a great role in improving the level of Chinese Go. The famous Chinese chess players Nie Weiping, Ma Xiaochun, Chang Hao and others have all been far-reachingly affected by it. Without the exchange efforts with the "Xiuxing Legion", it is difficult to imagine that the Chinese national Go team can win the first three Sino-Japanese Go Tournaments. Without the victory of the first three Chinese Japanese Go Tournaments, there would be no boom in Chinese Go now. In 2004, Hideyuki Fujisawa won the "Merit Award for Sino-Japanese Go Exchange".
Throughout his life, Mr. Hideyuki Fujisawa has been caring for and promoting his descendants. From the six super-first-class players under the Kidani Gate, to the Korean Cao Kaoru who studied chess in Japan, from Kiki Ieda to Takao Shinji, from Nie Weiping to Chang Hao, the Chinese chess players who have been mentored by Mr. Fujisawa are: Nie Weiping, Cao Dayuan, Liu Xiaoguang, Ma Xiaochun, Qian Yuping, Chang Hao, Zhou Heyang, etc., which is almost the entire list of china's three generations of chess players. Because of his tireless teaching of Chinese chess players, some people in his country accused him of helping China surpass Japan.
In the third phase of the Sino-Japanese Go Match, Xiuxing said in response to a reporter's question:
This kind of closed and self-defensive stupidity will only make Japanese Go more and more weak, only if our opponents are strong, the strength of Japanese Go is meaningful, Go has no borders, as long as people in the chess path are a family.
It can be seen that Hideyuki Fujisawa can be called a teacher in the entire Chinese chess circle.
Figures who have made great contributions to Chinese Go will be commemorated by Chinese society, such as Huang Longshi, Fan Xiping, Shi Xiangxia's Huanglongshi Cup World Women's Go Team Championship, Danghu Ten Game Cup CCTV TV Go Fast Chess Tournament, Wu Qingyuan Cup World Women's Go Tournament commemorating Master Wu Qingyuan, and Mr. Ying Changqi's Champion Cup Chinese Go Professional Championship, and there will be commemorative activities every year. However, after the death of Hideyuki Fujisawa, the commemoration of him in The country was quite deserted and lamented. The reason for this is most likely related to Mr. Hideyuki Fujisawa's bad hobbies.
Guo Degang ridiculed Yu Qian for having three major hobbies: smoking, drinking, and perming his hair. In addition to Go, Hideyuki Fujisawa also has three major hobbies: gambling, alcoholism, and lust, and is known as the "last rogue faction".
【 Keen on chess】
Some people say that Go is a game of winners and losers, and the winners are all gamblers. Fujisawa Hideyuki not only gambled chess himself, but also "educated" Cho Hyun Hyun to gamble chess, resulting in Cao Hyun being expelled from the division by Master Se yue Kensaku, but gambling chess did make Cho Hyun Hyun reborn, and the Korean chess world is also very popular, and it is recognized by professional chess players.
Xiuxing: "That's right, it's a game of chess, 1,000 rounds." Later, when Lin Jun got the title of 'celebrity' at the age of 23, I said to him, your boy has become a 'celebrity', come. 5,000 plates. I deliberately embarrassed Lin Jun. He had no choice but to fight. The result is always that I win, no matter how long Lin Jun takes the exam, and no matter how drunk I am, I will win anyway. Lin Jun began to suppress the price, saying whether he could 3,000 plates, I used the strength of wine, but I did not agree. However, now the reverse is reversed, Lin Jun always takes care of me, you see, Lin Jun has now become everyone, I also exposed his youth, I am really sorry (laughs). ”
Hideyuki: "In addition to Lin Jun, there were many people, Masaki Takemiya, Cho Ji-hoon, Masao Kato, Yoshio Ishida, Ando Kaoru, and so on." The young man won me, 500 yen reward. Lose, give me a 5 minute shoulder rub. Everyone outside said that I had started a business, but in fact, it was just a meeting place for chess players. ”
In addition to gambling chess, Hideyuki Fujisawa also participated in gambling and owed a huge debt. Because of gambling debts, Hideyuki Fujisawa had a family of disciples all over his life, and he couldn't even pay off the huge prize money he had won for the sixth term of chess. It should be known that the chess jihad prize of 32 million yen in that year was equivalent to the current 80 million yuan, but Fujisawa Hideyuki has dominated for six consecutive times and won a chess jihad prize of nearly 500 million yuan. On a plane to China, Hideyuki Fujisawa once said, "How I wish the plane had fallen into the sea now." Gambling debts almost drove Hideyuki Fujisawa crazy.
【Alcoholism】
In 1977, Hideyuki Fujisawa won the first Chess Championship. At the ceremony, the then members of the Diet, prefectural councilors, local celebrities, and a large number of fans filled the venue, but the entrance fee was as high as 2,000 yen. When the tv cameras began filming, a drunken Hideyuki Fujisawa stepped up into the microphone, and the first sentence turned out to be 'Mizuki' (Japanese slang for women's private parts), and the audience was dumbfounded and stunned.
There is a memoir that says:
Mi Chang: "I don't remember the first chess holy war, after you defeated the challenger to win the championship, Japanese television found you in the middle of the night, the female host interview, live broadcast, you came up with a sentence, 'Little sister, so beautiful, follow me XXX.'" ’”
Xiu Xing: "At that time, I was soaking in wine every day, causing trouble everywhere, even in the TV station, I often drank and did not choose to say anything... However, this paragraph should not have been broadcast, right? ”
Mi Chang: "Is it good to broadcast live, I was in front of the TV at the time." ”
Xiuxing: "Oh, live broadcast." Well, it seems that the hostess didn't care too much... Later, we saw her several times, and we didn't hear her talk about it. ”
Mi Chang: "Come on, you, the hostess was blushing at the time, and she turned around and slipped away." ”
【Private Life Chaos】
Hideyuki Fujisawa has many lovers outside, and his lover Fujisawa モト, although he knows that he has many lovers outside, still respects Hideyuki and takes care of Hideyuki. According to Mrs. Fujisawa,Fujisawa often ran into poverty with debt and had no choice but to take his illegitimate children home, and Mrs. Fujisawa not only tolerated his behavior, but also took in these children (Fujisawa Hideyuki had 6 children, 3 of whom were illegitimate). According to the record:
Uya nagamasa's wife met Hideyuki Fujisawa's wife, who said to Hideyuki Fujisawa, "My lover doesn't come back 5 days a week," while Hideyuki Fujisawa's wife said, "My lover hasn't been back for 3 years."
These three hobbies of Hideyuki Fujisawa, placed in China, will never be accepted by mainstream Chinese values. These three of his hobbies are precisely what mainstream Chinese morality denounces and does not allow. Probably for this reason, the official commemoration of Mr. Hideyuki Fujisawa is more difficult. Therefore, the commemoration of Mr. Fujisawa is more of a personal remembrance of the chess player.
But in any case, Mr. Hideyuki Fujisawa's great contribution to Chinese Go should not be forgotten.
