I like to play chess, Go, Xiangqi, Chess, and Military Flag, and I often play Go and Chinese chess.
In my opinion, Go has to be called "elegant": even if there is a chair or two stools in the market, you can play against each other, and the player can be elegant. Chess, on the other hand, has to be called "many". Players are often seen on the streets, and some even sit on the floor. A chess deck is played, and the crowd is crowded. There are many gossiping "staff officers", and they are very lively.
I have a deep-rooted tendency to become a commoner in my bones, and I think that I am a person in the market and a person in the rivers and lakes, which is rare and elegant. That's why I love to play chess more, and I was a bit of a crazy person when I was younger. In his spare time, he records various stories in the rivers and lakes of chess to feast on fellow practitioners.
Chess "anecdotes: Daddy Mei and Uncle Wang.
There was an old man in the courtyard who was very good at chess. Everyone called him "Old Man Mei", and I called him Daddy Mei. He is not tall, looks short and fat, his head is a little bald, and his overall image looks like the birthday star in the New Year painting, but the head is not so exaggerated. His ears were a little back, and when I saw him, I raised my voice and shouted, "Daddy May." He was always smiling and waving his hand. When I was in elementary school, I saw him play chess with my dad. When I was in junior high school, I learned that he was in his seventies. At that time, I used to play chess with him a lot. The impression is four or six open. That is, four wins, six losses. When I got to high school, I played chess as soon as I had the holidays. As the chess strength grows, it becomes seven or three. Later, he was no match for me, so I rarely played chess with him.
One of the characteristics of his chess game is that he is very casual. The chess is played very quickly, almost casually, and he does not rush you. Although he is old and less energetic than before, Daddy May is still very powerful. There are few people in the courtyard who can get under him. Don't look at him like he is now, but when he was young, he was very beautiful. The entire Huangpu Road is below, that is to say, in a radius of more than ten miles, there is no chess master who does not know him, and no one is his opponent. I didn't see this in person, but it was confirmed by Uncle Wang.
Daddy May lived to be in his eighties, and died a few years ago. When he left, as soon as I entered the house, I respectfully kowtowed a few times, and wished him an opponent to play chess in another world.
When I was in high school, Uncle Wang moved next door to my house. Wang Bo often played chess with Daddy Mei, and Daddy Mei was no longer his opponent at this time. Uncle Wang let the three first, or let the single horse. Daddy Mei laughed when he lost, and he was not annoyed. Just say something like "I want to be back then". Uncle Wang laughed at him now. It's a pleasure to play chess.
Uncle Wang's chess is also very good. When Liu Dahua went to the Cultural Palace to play chess with one enemy and nine closed eyes, everyone else lost, but Uncle Wang made a peace. The so-called closed-eye chess is to play against each other by not looking at the chessboard, relying on the chess terminology of the two sides to report the chess pieces they have moved. To put it simply, two chess masters who can play chess with their eyes closed can play a game with two mouths. Grandmaster Liu Dahua is known as the "Oriental Computer", and the highest record of closed-eye chess (written by impression, pending further verification) is a pair of nineteen. A pair of nine is no different from watching a chessboard play for Master Liu. Being able to make peace with him shows Uncle Wang's profound skills.
At that time, not only did I like to play chess, but I also wanted to dig deeper whenever I had my mind. So I offered to let Uncle Wang teach me. Uncle Wang said that I was too young, and I would not mention this matter until the time came. After many years, I realized that Uncle Wang was afraid that teaching me to play chess would affect my studies and affect my future job search. He really has good intentions.
But at that time, I was very stubborn. Uncle Wang refused to teach, so I set up chess games at home by myself, and I asked Uncle Wang to play chess if I had some experience. But there are still more losses and fewer wins, and it is a three-seven open in memory.
Uncle Wang's son is also a master, and when he saw that I loved to play chess, he sometimes came to join in the fun. He's a very face-saving man. Seeing that I was young, he offered to let two horses or one horse. Let the two horses have special rules and have special chess games. Let the single horse be based on strength. He wanted to use the Double Horse Game to deceive me. I was young and vigorous, and I refused to admit defeat, and I didn't leave a piece of armor to kill him. Uncle Wang counted Xiao Wang next to him: You still let the son, you can't let it go. I don't know what's going on in the next draw.
Uncle Wang has always been very good at chess, until the summer vacation after the college entrance examination, I played music diligently at home and studied carefully, so that my chess strength could be equal to him.
Other masters in the yard.
Shell Horse (Wuhan accent of **): It is enough to compete with Uncle Wang!I once saw him playing chess with Daddy May, let the seven first. (Daddy May takes seven steps first and doesn't attack.) ）
Jiang: A legendary man.
Opponent Yellow Hair: Yellow Hair is a nickname. When I was in junior high school, I was playing chess with Dr. J (a good friend who also loves chess), and he interjected. I was not convinced, I played against it, and I lost. What he said has always been imprinted in my mind: my chess games have "roots" (term: i.e., there are sub-protections)!The term "depressed" was not in vogue at the time. That's the best way to describe my feelings. I thought indignantly: What is the root?!When the time comes, I will kill you in the same way. And it did. As my chess skills grew, Huang Mao was very jealous of me.
A master in the rivers and lakes.
Sometimes I go out for a walk when I have nothing to do, and when I see a chess game on the side of the road, I come over. Chess can be played late at night, and you can see late at night. With this idiocy, I have also seen many masters.
Kuroko: Middle-aged with a black face. Likes to play chess and drink beer at the same time. Strong chess strength.
White-faced scholar: Strong chess skills. Every time you play against sunspots, you have a slight advantage. He can't always break the layout of the sunspot.
Phnom Rim Glasses: Champion of a Cultural Palace. The old gentleman has far-reaching calculations and is extremely stable in chess.
Paralyzed: Somewhere you see a person with inconvenient legs and feet sitting in a wheelchair playing against someone. I made a move on the side, and ate his car with the layout of "trapping the car bureau", but I didn't see the specific situation and was counted to death.
Two chess nerds: It's not chess that's powerful, these two people have a bottle of liquor, no vegetables, a pair of chess, play until dawn, and drink a bottle of wine.
Fat Man: There is a fat man in the old riverside park. I played against it, I lost in a daze, and I don't know how to lose.
Essay. The summer vacation after the college entrance examination, I was obsessed with studying chess. One day, Dr. J and I went to the chess stall to play chess, and for a while I picked several people in a row, and the stall owner finally found the best person to play with me. 6 games, 3 battles and 3 losses. At that time, I was in a happy mood and full of confidence. At the same time, he found that he could play chess with his eyes closed, so he regarded himself as a master. Later, I went to the major chess stalls in Wuhan to find people to compete, and often met masters, who were killed in disgrace, and sometimes even lost inexplicably.
When I got to college, my chess skills grew. He is recognized as the number one master in the department. I didn't participate in the school chess tournament because of academic tension, but I saw a junior from the mechanical department playing chess very handsomely, but I didn't have the opportunity to play. In addition, from time to time, there are well-known chess players who come to challenge, and there are few defeats. It's just that the game of chess is gradually decreasing.
After participating in the work, I played less, and I rarely met the masters. Once, he won all the games in chess, and all of them were in straight sets without playing three sets. An elder brother advised me: You don't give anyone a chance at all. ！Raised in shock, only to reflect on the disadvantages of blindly seeking victory, and sometimes hurt the other party's face but didn't know it. The chessboard is brave and ruthless, but ignores the world outside the chessboard. I think it's boring. Since then, it has become less and less. It's just to flip through the chess games, comprehend the way of chess, and often have an understanding.
Later, he learned to play chess online and applied for a nickname in Lianzhong: Game Spirit. The best result is at the level of the ** master. Playing chess on the Internet is purely for the pleasure of playing chess. He also clarified what level his actual chess strength had reached. I gradually felt that I was in a bottleneck, a plateau period, and I had to re-study the chess game in detail to make a breakthrough. It's a pity that as I get older, I have more things to do, and the burden on my body is heavier. I gradually ran out of time to play chess.
From an orthodox point of view, playing chess is a plaything and a waste of time. Lenin was also a chess enthusiast, but later abandoned it due to his busy work. I don't want to follow suit. Although I don't have much time to play chess now, I still hope that when I have some free time, I can study the game carefully and take my chess skills to the next level.
The world is like a chess game, and life is like a game. The rivers and lakes in the chess road are a different kind of world. 2006.08.19
