Chapter 247 Feelings After Reading (Thanks to Tuba 9 States for the Reward)
Hearing what the bookstore owner said, Zhen Duo was a little puzzled, and after buying three separate volumes of "Soul of Chess", he left the bookstore in a hurry.
Whether a sport has vitality does not depend on the level of top athletes, but on the acceptance of the sport by the public.
Take chess as an example, Go is not as grounded as chess.
Whether ordinary people know how to play chess or not, chariots, horses and cannons can always take a step or two, but what about Go? Most people don't even know what is "qi", what is "eye", and how to "grape", how can they be down-to-earth? How is it accepted by the public?
I heard the introduction from the store manager just now, it seems that this comic has attracted a group of people who are not interested in Go, or those who are of average Go level, to the dojo to get in touch with and learn Go.
If "Soul of Chess" really has this kind of effect, does it really matter whether its content is true or not, or whether it is rigorous?
A Go cartoon, what impact can it have on Go, is it positive or negative?
These are more important than whether the comic itself is real, right?
On the way back, Zhen Duo kept thinking about this question, from Zhen Xi's comments, to Xie Chengbo's questioning, and finally to the bookstore owner's answer... Everyone's interpretation of this comic is different.
What kind of comic is this?
Zhen Duo was curious about this cartoon.
When he got home, he sat on the sofa, and his wife picked up Go from the dining room, tied it up and walked towards the kitchen.
"I saw news on the Internet that my son seemed to be being bullied." The wife said sullenly.
"What? He was bullied?" Zhen Duo asked.
"That's right, many people on the Internet are scolding him, it's true. He has won the championship, but he has to be scolded. What kind of world is this?" the wife complained.
"I don't want to be scolded, so just shut up when you go out." Zhen Duo said patiently.
"Are you still his father? My son has been bullied, so it's fine if you don't say a few words for him, and you're still making sarcastic remarks here?" the wife pinched her waist and said.
Zhen Duo was also not happy, and looked at his wife dissatisfied.
"How can I speak for him? No, others didn't say anything. He first commented on other people's works as worthless, and they haven't said anything until now. How can I help him? Why don't you say anything when you scold others? Is it? That’s not how you help your son.”
"That's because the manga is not good, or why would my son say that?" the wife muttered.
Zhen Duo rolled his eyes, knowing that he couldn't reason with his wife, so he turned his energy to the manga, picked up the first volume of "Soul of Chess", and read it carefully.
Zuowei?
When seeing Zuo Wei appear, Zhen Duo didn't take it seriously.
Although he doesn't read manga very much, since this manga is so popular, everyone agrees with Zuo Wei's existence.
Later, with the help of Zuowei's power, Xiaoguang defeated Xiaoliang twice, which reminded him of Zhenxi's evaluation of "Soul of Chess"-distortion and lack of connotation.
Well, from the current point of view, apart from using a few common game records and some knowledge of Go, there is really no connotation at all.
However, if you understand it this way, you feel that something is not quite right.
Zhen Duo frowned, his eyes fixed on Xiao Liang.
Xiaoguang and Xiaoliang compete,
Just to prove Zuowei's strength? Then why still highlight Xiaoliang's past?
Zhen Duo really wanted to put down the manga, but from the front, his son was right, the manga was just okay.
However, just as this idea appeared, Xie Chengbo's words rang in his ears again, "I heard what you said just now, and thought you had read it."
At the time, that sentence was really harsh.
Isn't it just to read it again... It's just a waste of half an hour at most.
Zhen Duo bit the bullet and looked down. When he saw the 11th chapter "Awakening Harbinger", he immediately regained his energy.
With these words, Xiaoguang knew that he could not defeat his opponent with his own strength, and there were tears of unwillingness in his eyes.
This picture is very familiar to him.
Many young students in the dojo will also cry because they lose the game. This painting is a portrayal of them.
Serious and stubborn, in fact, Zhen Xi also has this kind of personality... No, originally, he is also like this!
However, as he grows older, after losing the game, the unwillingness and resentment in his heart are gradually drifting away from him.
Now, instead, he has a set of self-comforting rhetoric, for example, he has to get out of failure before he can face the next game, and that kind of stubbornness and unyielding seems to have not appeared for a long time.
Looking further down, Xiao Liang also showed his persistence.
He gave up the chance to become a professional chess player and chose to join the Go club, just to fight Xiaoguang.
At the same time, Xiaoguang has gradually become interested in Go from a person who does not know how to play Go.
The arrangement of this episode makes those who are not interested in Go start to be curious about Go.
For these people, "Soul of Chess" is like Zuo Wei's effect on Xiaoguang, it is a bridge to contact and learn Go.
After reading the first time, Zhen Duo was still not satisfied, so he read it twice, and then put down the manga, revisiting the plot of the three volumes of separate volumes, some unclear plots gradually became clear.
In the first few chapters, the reason why the author designed the plot where Xiaoguang beat Xiaoliang was not just to make readers feel refreshed, but to design a group of opponents.
There is only one person, and there is no way to play good chess.
Zhen Duo could clearly understand this point.
Really, I was almost taken in by that child, Xiaoxi didn't finish watching it at all.
Zhen Duo went back to his study, turned on the computer, and found the official WeChat account of "ic future". The magazine did not respond to this matter. In the latest message on the New Year's greeting post, many people are laughing at "Soul of Chess".
"What should we do?"
Zhen Duo rubbed his forehead, looked at the phone on the table, thought for a long time, and finally picked it up.
The editorial department of "IC Future", Shang Haozhi is also waiting for the news of "Young Leap".
All he knew now was that Murakami and Yokoi were looking for Zhen Xi with the three-volume Chinese booklet of "Soul of Chess". But the hotel doesn't let Yokoi approach.
When Zhen Xi finished his interview in the morning, many reporters wanted to continue interviewing him. In order to prevent Zhen Xi from being harassed, the Chess Academy and the organizers protected him.
In the end, the editor-in-chief of "Young Leap" entrusted the 11th district chess academy, which gave Murakami and Yokoi a chance, but the meeting time between the two was controlled within half an hour.
In other words, it will take half an hour at the earliest before this matter will have results.
I hope... there will be results soon, right?
Shang Haozhi rubbed his forehead, the debate between "Soul of Chess" and Zhen Xi on the Internet has become more and more intense.
District 11.
"Please, please read these three comics." Yokoi bowed deeply to Zhen Xi, and Murakami also bowed slightly, with a serious face.
"No. I'm not wrong." Zhen Xi turned her head.
"Please read "Soul of Chess" before making a decision, because the content of "Soul of Chess" is very different from your evaluation." Yokoi said boldly.
Zhen Xi glanced at the two people in front of him without curiosity, didn't he just say a word? Why are these people chattering in my ears, asking me to say something against my will?
Hypocrisy, the world of adults is all hypocrisy!
Zhen Xi gritted his teeth, stared at the two people in front of him, and wanted to drive them all out, but at this moment, his cell phone rang.
He glanced at the phone screen, the caller was his father, Zhen Duo.
