　　China News Service, February 1st. In the finals of the 25th LG Cup World Chess King Tournament opened on the 1st, Beijing time, Chinese player Ke Jie faced South Korean player Shin Minji. Ke Jie won the first game in the middle of the game. Next city first.

As the first Chinese Go player, Ke Jie is currently launching an impact on Li Changhao's record as the youngest "Nine Champion".

　　In the semi-finals of the 25th LG Cup World Go King Tournament held on November 11 last year, Ke Jie reversed and defeated South Korean player Bian Sang-il. This was his first time to enter the final of the tournament.

As of that semi-final, since the rematch of the Go Tournament in June last year, Ke Jie has maintained a record of victories against Korean players 13 times.

　　Before this LG Cup final, Ke Jie's situation was also a bit worrying.

On the night before the game, Ke Jie suffered from insomnia...

　　From the beginning of "what to do if I can't sleep" to "it seems to be going all night", to "have you seen Beijing at 4:30 in the morning", it seems that the "Eight Crowns" think of us ordinary people when they have insomnia It's almost the same.

　　The consequence of insomnia is sleepiness the next day. In order to resist the sleepy bugs, Ke Jie specially asked others to help him buy iced coffee to refresh himself.

In the end, even though his mental state was not at his best, Ke Jie still defeated his opponent and seized the opportunity of the final triple play.

　　In the eyes of many people, Go is a complicated, elegant and intelligent project.

But I don’t know why, news related to Ke Jie often has a "nonsensical" color.

　　On November 3 last year, in the second game of the 25th Samsung Cup World Go Masters final, Ke Jie defeated Shen Zhenzhen with a half-eye advantage, thus closing his opponent 2:0 in this highly anticipated final. , Achieve the eight champions of the World Series.

　　In the first set of this triple match final, a scene that made people laugh or cry took place.

Shen Zhenzhen made a mistake at the moment.

　　In view of the impact of the epidemic, the finals will be played online.

Shen Zhenzhen, who is in black, showed a "slip mark" on the 21st hand, and his piece was placed on the edge of the chess game, and the situation took a sharp turn.

According to the feedback from the Korean Chess Academy, Shin Jin’s “sliding mark” was because the mouse cord accidentally touched the computer touch screen.

According to the rules of this tournament, the result cannot be changed.

　　After witnessing Shen Zhenzhen's position on the screen, Ke Jie, who was behind the network cable, scratched her head and stared at the screen for a long time.

Obviously, like the audience, he didn't have the slightest defense against this episode.

The dignified "Eight Crowns" became an "emoticon pack" at this time.

Ke Jie couldn't believe it.

　　In the history of professional Go, the world champion Lee Chang-ho, who has won the most world championships, is also recognized as one of the greatest players.

Lee Chang-ho was 23 years old when he won his eighth championship.

When Ke Jie won the eighth championship, she was also 23 years old.

　　According to the schedule, the second game of the LG Cup final will be held on February 3. If Ke Jie wishes to win the championship, he will break Lee Chang-ho's record and become the youngest "nine champion" in the history of Go.
