Chapter 121 Super High Odds
…
Hearing this, Zhao Qingshan smiled and shook his head, "Xiao Hui, although your chess skills are very good, if you compare a person's chess skills to a mountain, then Xiaohui, the top of your mountain, the old man, I can still I can barely see it, but I can't see clearly the top of Xiaoyu mountain. How can I describe it? The top of Xiaoyu mountain is shrouded in white mist. I describe it this way, Xiaohui, can you Understand."
Kong Yahui also wants to challenge Ichiro Fujisawa, but now Kong Yahui is only at 7th dan, less than 8th dan. Normally, he is not qualified to challenge Ichiro Fujisawa. He can only get a challenge unless he is recommended by the president of a certain provincial Go association. That opportunity for Ichiro Fujisawa.
For this reason, Kong Yahui hopes that Zhao Qingshan can recommend him to challenge Fujisawa Ichiro.
However, it seems now that although he has shown that he is not inferior to the eighth-dan player, in Zhao Qingshan's eyes, Kong Yahui's chess skills are still not as good as Chen Yu.
"Understood."
Kong Yahui nodded, and then looked at Chen Yu again, "Chen Yu, Mr. Zhao's evaluation of your chess skills is quite high. This makes me look forward to the game between you and Fujisawa Ichiro this afternoon. .”
"Mr. Zhao, your evaluation is too high. It puts me under a lot of pressure."
As soon as Chen Yu's wry smile ended, the Zhao family's nanny's voice came in from outside the door. It turned out that lunch was ready, and the nanny called the group to go out for lunch.
In this way, a group of people walked out of the tea room and came to the restaurant. The Zhao family's nanny cooked a large table of dishes, including meat, vegetables and soup, which were well matched.
After everyone sat down, Zhao Qingshan smiled and said to Chen Yu who was sitting opposite him: "Xiaoyu, this is your first time at my house for dinner and you haven't gotten a drink yet. Don't you have any objections in your heart?" Don’t even come to my house anymore.”
"Mr. Zhao, please stop making fun of me."
In two hours, he was going to the Shancheng Go Association to compete with that little boy on the chessboard. Of course, he couldn't drink at this time. As the saying goes, the most test of Go is a player's ability. Calculation ability, so it is very important to keep a clear mind at all times, so he cannot drink a drop of wine during lunch.
"Haha, Xiaoyu, wait until you are successful in the afternoon and come to my house in the evening. Then you will have enough wine."
"Old Zhao, I think you are really old and confused. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. Xiaoyu and Weiwei must have dinner at home in the evening to spend the festival with Xiaosu and the others."
"Oh, yes, it seems that I am really old and my brain is no longer working well."
Hearing this, Su Zhennan said at the right moment: "Mr. Zhao, Aunt Zhao, why don't you come to my house for dinner in the evening to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival? There are so many people."
"This... this is not good. Your family is celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival, and our couple is going. This is not appropriate."
"Grandpa Zhao, what's inappropriate? In front of outsiders, didn't you always introduce me to others as this is my granddaughter? Could it be that what you said at that time was just a joke, but I took it seriously. In my heart I really regard you as my grandfather and Grandma Zhao as my grandma."
Hearing Su Ruowei's words, Zhao Qingshan and Zhao Xiufen suddenly showed kind smiles on their faces, "Okay, okay, since my granddaughter Weiwei said so, what should our couple say tonight?" We also want to go over and spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with our granddaughter."
…
When the food was over, Kong Yahui put down his mobile phone and said to Chen Yu: "Chen Yu, the game between you and Ichiro Fujisawa this afternoon has been opened online. It has been open for less than half an hour. I will pay you what you win." The rate has already reached 20.”
Chen Yu was a little surprised when he heard this, "Can this Go game be played?"
He knew about gambling on football, but this was the first time he heard about gambling on chess.
"sure."
Kong Yahui said: "The bookmaker that opened the market this time is Fujisawa Gaming. Come to Chen Yu, you will know from the name of this gaming company that the bookmaker that opened the market this time is actually the Fujisawa family where Ichiro Fujisawa belongs. However, there is a difference between chess and football gambling. There are some differences in the rules. The international Go industry stipulates that the individual bet limit for gambling cannot exceed 100,000 US dollars. Chen Yu, this time the bet is purely about winning or losing. The total bet limit has reached two. Tens of millions of dollars, and it’s still growing rapidly. As for me, I just placed fifty thousand dollars, and I want you to win. Come on, Chen Yu, try to make a big upset and let me make a fortune."
"How to play this, please teach me."
"Okay, I'll teach you. It's very simple."
After Kong Yahui's on-site guidance, Chen Yu already knew how to play. However, Chen Yu did not place a bet on himself to win because just now, the odds of winning on him had reached 25, so Chen Yu decided to wait. When the odds of winning by betting on him are higher, he will then buy on himself and win.
It is actually easy to understand why the odds of buying him are so high. After all, Ichiro Fujisawa is a nine-dan chess player with a great reputation and impressive record. Not long ago, he even defeated Kong Jie. Now he is in good momentum. Sheng, the limelight is unparalleled.
On the other hand, Chen Yu doesn't even have a rank, and at his request, his identity is still kept secret. The outside world only knows his surname, Chen, age, and no rank. No other information is known.
A chess player like him who is unknown and does not even have a rank is naturally the best chess player among all chess players.
Those who buy him to win are probably not really optimistic that he can win, but simply want to make a big bet. If they win, they will get dozens of times higher returns. If they lose, well, then they lose...
"It's a pity that we civil servants can't participate in gambling, chess and the like. Otherwise, I would also put some money in and buy Xiaoyu to win to support my son-in-law."
Su Zhennan said with a smile.
Nowadays, government officials are allowed to trade stocks and futures, but gambling on sports is not allowed, because the latter is essentially gambling. If you do, it will be a violation of discipline.
…
When the time came to half past one, the group set off towards the Mountain City Go Association.
"Weiwei, Mr. Zhao and his children, haven't they come back during the Mid-Autumn Festival?"
Chen Yu, who was sitting in the passenger seat of the Hongqi H5, suddenly turned his head and asked Su Ruowei behind him.
"They have no children."
Su Ruowei said: "When Grandma Zhao was young, she had infertility and did not ovulate. She went to many famous doctors but couldn't see it, so they never had children. Regarding this, when Grandma Zhao was young, she wanted to divorce Mr. Zhao. Well, Let Mr. Zhao remarry and give him a son and a half, but Mr. Zhao loves Grandma Zhao very much and refuses to divorce Grandma Zhao no matter what. They really have a platonic love."
