Nie Weiping, an important figure in the Chinese Go world, is known as the "Chess Saint", not only an outstanding professional Go player, but also an outstanding Go coach. He served as the vice president and director of the technical committee of the Chinese Weiqi Association, and had a profound influence on the development of Go in China.
His contribution is not only reflected in his chess skills, but also in his promotion of the popularity of Go in Chinese mainland. Therefore, his name has a very high status in the Chinese Go community and in the hearts of the majority of Go enthusiasts.
Nie Weiping, a child with congenital heart disease, has not been exposed to strenuous exercise since he was a child, and has become the target of bullying on campus. In order to "please" others, he began a life of "dedication".
However, this experience did not discourage him, but instead inspired him to win with his intelligence. He found his way in "mathematics" and thus began his path of intellectual challenge.
Although Nie Weiping's family were all avid fans of Go, they never forced their children to accept their hobby. Under the influence of the family atmosphere, Nie Weiping gradually became interested in Go, and out of curiosity, he secretly imitated the appearance of adults and began to learn Go.
Although he had no formal teaching, his understanding of Go was limited to the surface, but it was this simple contact that made him fascinated by the victory and defeat in the game.
Nie Weiping was obsessed with Go, and in order to win, he studied day and night and devoted himself to this field. He explored the world of Go for a long time, during which he also met his enlightenment teacher.
Nie Weiping is full of deep nostalgia for the days when he studied with his teachers, and those days of learning chess and being a man are extremely precious in his heart. In the 1965 National Ten Unit Go Invitational Tournament, he won the championship in the children's category, allowing people to see his talent.
Then, he participated in the training camp of the Beijing Chess Club to select players for the national competition, which was an important step for him to become a "Go master". His family environment sparked his interest in Go, but the variety of teachers he met along the way was the key factor in his success.
In 2013, Nie Weiping suddenly found that he had blood in his stool, and began to think it was hemorrhoids and anal fissures, and thought that it would be over after a few days. However, after returning to Beijing after participating in a Go match, Nie Weiping felt very weak and his face was sallow, which made everyone worried.
They tried their best to persuade Nie Weiping to go to the hospital for an examination, and Nie Weiping himself realized that there was a serious problem with his body and decided to go to the hospital for an examination. The results of the examination showed that Nie Weiping was suffering from advanced rectal cancer, and everyone in the chess academy was stunned, and after discussion, they decided to hide Nie Weiping's condition for the time being.
In search of a more effective **, Nie Weiping was transferred to a cancer hospital. Faced with the demeanor of the people in the chess academy who didn't say anything, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "What disease do I have?" ”
Everyone looked at each other for a moment, and then comforted him: "Don't worry, it's nothing." Nie Weiping knew that the big characters at the entrance of the hospital were enough to explain everything. Although everyone in the chess academy still concealed the specific illness, he was already mentally prepared.
Upon entering the hospital, the doctor and the director soon appeared in front of him and began to treat him.
Nie Weiping was worried in his heart, only surgery could bring life, and now the doctor recommended to be conservative, as if he was facing the call of death. The doctor earnestly told him, "If the surgery is successful, you may be in an unforeseen predicament." ”
Nie Weiping looked at the doctor with a serious gaze, and his heart was like a knife.
After careful consideration, Nie Weiping firmly expressed his willingness to undergo surgery to the doctor. He understood that if even life was gone, then all other problems would be trivial.
He didn't want to wait for death every day, he thought it was all about being alive. Despite the persuasion of doctors and colleagues at the chess academy, he still insisted on his decision.
At Nie Weiping's insistence, everyone did not persuade much, and the doctor began to prepare for the operation. When everyone left, Nie Weiping leaned on the bed alone, looking out the window, with a lot of thoughts in his heart.
The rectum was only 15 centimeters long, but his tumor had reached 10 centimeters. Nie Weiping shook his head and sighed, thinking about how a person like himself, who is rarely angry, could get cancer?
After consulting with the doctor, he began to seriously think about the cause of cancer, and the first thing that came to mind was "sedentary".
As a professional player of Go, it is not uncommon for long periods of sitting to lead to a lack of exercise. A game can even last all day, and it is almost impossible to get up and move around, and there is no opportunity to exercise on a regular basis.
This lack of exercise can lead to a slowdown in gastrointestinal motility and an increase in the accumulation of toxins in the body. Nie Weiping believes that his unhealthy lifestyle and eating habits are the main reasons for his illness.
In particular, his love for crabs is that he can eat 13 and a half pounds of crabs at a time, which undoubtedly increases his risk of disease.
Eating crab does not directly cause rectal cancer, but excessive intake of high protein, including crab, may increase the risk of rectal cancer. The key is that the intake of any food needs to be controlled in moderation.
Nie Weiping's irregular life and work pressure are important reasons for the occurrence of cancer. He used to study chess games in the car and even seize all his free time to catch up on sleep.
Faced with the threat of cancer, he was deeply confused, but he faced it positively, cooperated with the doctor's examination, and finally successfully underwent surgery. The results of this surgery were pleasantly surprised, the cancer did not spread.
The torture of chemotherapy and radiotherapy is more frightening than surgery, Nie Weiping has undergone 9 times of chemotherapy in **, and even has many boils and his feet have become dark. Not only does he have to fight cancer, but he also needs *** disease.
However, what is admirable is that Nie Weiping's hair did not fall out, and he survived this difficult period with tenacity. When he reappeared in the public eye, he was unsightly thin and his hair had turned gray, but he was still in good spirits and admirable.
After the operation, Nie Weiping began to pay attention to health management, and would have a physical examination every three months. The doctor told him that although the diagnosis of rectal cancer has progressed, poor lifestyle, eating habits may still lead to.
At the same time, rectal cancer has a certain genetic risk, and people with a family history of the disease should have regular check-ups. The doctor warned Nie Weiping to control the intake of crabs and quit smoking and drinking, but he didn't seem to care much about the doctor's advice when he was just discharged from the hospital.
Nie Weiping has always been a straightforward person, and his life has never dragged his feet. His drinking style is as uninhibited as his Go style, but this time, his body is a wake-up call.
His family watched him ignore his physical condition, and even ate shabu and ice cream to satisfy his appetite during the ** period, and persuaded him to no avail. Until the doctor told him: "This disease is cured, you can live for many more years if you quit drinking, so that you can spend more time with your daughter Feifei, and you should also quit drinking for your daughter." ”
At this moment, Nie Weiping finally understood that his decision was not only about his own health, but also about his family, especially his beloved daughter. Since then, he has made up his mind to quit smoking and drinking, even his beloved hairy crab, just to be able to accompany his daughter to grow up healthy and happy.
Nie Weiping successfully quit drinking and stayed away from tobacco, the only "chess saint" who was allowed to smoke in the game, is now a "4-pound brother" with a strong sense of health. The doctor told him that the recovery from the disease required three points ** and seven points of maintenance, so he paid more attention to self-care.
He advocates eating more whole grains, vegetables and fruits, exercising moderately, and maintaining a positive and optimistic attitude. Nie Weiping said with a smile: "I will always stick to these healthy lifestyles. ”
In 2016, Nie Weiping successfully removed polyps from his body after undergoing minor surgery. According to doctors, polyps are the main cause of rectal cancer. After the second operation, when Nie Weiping underwent a physical examination again, he was pleased to find that the cancer cells on his body had disappeared, which undoubtedly brought great joy to Nie Weiping and his family.
This is not only a medical success, but also a miracle created by you and your daughter with family affection. At this moment, Nie Weiping's heart is full of excitement and happiness that he has never felt before, and he is truly full of hope for a new life.
Nie Weiping followed the doctor's advice, maintained a normal rhythm of life, paid attention to diet and work and rest rules, and began to pay attention to health preservation. After that, Nie Weiping often used his own experience as an example to teach the people around him: "Learn from me and refuse rectal cancer." ”
Nie Weiping is an alcoholic, and although doctors told him not to drink, his decades-old drinking habits are difficult to change easily. After the operation, he often obsessed with alcohol.
His son, Kong Lingwen, was well aware of his father's obsession with alcohol, but considering his father's physical condition, he rarely agreed to allow him to drink. However, by chance, Kong Lingwen discovered a drink in Japan that tasted alcohol but did not contain alcohol.
He was so happy that he immediately ordered a large case and shipped it directly back to Beijing to satisfy his father's craving for wine.
Between Kong Lingwen and Nie Weiping's son, in addition to alcohol, their favorite topic is Go. Whenever they have the opportunity, they study the game in their room. In recent years, Kong Lingwen has become the Go cultural exchange ambassador of the Japan Chess Academy, and is committed to the exchange of Go culture between China and Japan.
As a result, he had more time to come to China, and the father and son spent more and more time together, and their relationship became deeper and deeper. At the 2020 Huawei Mobile China Go League, Nie Weiping showed up in the game room on time every day, and his serious tour made the players feel as if they had entered a serious exam.
After 2013, Nie Weiping successfully changed many bad habits, and since then he has maintained a regular schedule and no longer stays up late. He once said, "I didn't sleep much, but now I feel a lot more than before." ”
Nie Weiping is now energetic, even though he is nearly seventy years old, his chess skills are still not inferior to any young people, and his love for Go has not diminished in the slightest.
Nie Weiping will be in the room or research room and welcome you to visit. Don't forget, he also has a new nickname - "Nie Erliang".
In order to celebrate Nie Weiping's birthday, a two-tael wine was specially customized for him. Looking at the gift given by his beloved daughter, Nie Weiping happily shared with others: "I only drink two taels at a time now, and I will not exceed this amount in the future, I suggest that everyone can be like me, drink a little less, drink too much and get drunk easily, dizzy and easy to have an accident, two taels are just right, no more, no less." ”
Time passed silently, as if it had left traces of cancer on Nie Weiping's body, but it seemed that nothing had been left. The road to fighting cancer was undoubtedly difficult, but Nie Weiping survived, and even his nurses called him a "miracle".
Now, he controls his diet, quits smoking and drinking, and strictly adjusts his work and rest, just to prevent the disobedient rectal cancer from coming back. Nie Weiping is a miracle in the history of fighting cancer, perhaps God is also moved by his tenacity, and does not want to see this Go "chess master" defeated by cancer.
Nie Weiping: The Road to Rebirth from a Chess Saint to an Anti-Cancer Warrior Nie Weiping is a famous Chinese Go Chess Saint, and his life is full of legends. However, he was diagnosed with bowel cancer in 2016, a news that shocked the world.
However, Nie Weiping was not defeated by the disease, he chose to face the disease bravely and began his path of rebirth. In 2019, Nie Weiping publicly announced that he had defeated bowel cancer, and his tenacious spirit and perseverance earned him the respect of the world.
