The next day.
Another morning.
Without Zhang Ye, the entertainment circle would always seem a little lacking in liveliness. Although there were also countless scandals and news about celebrities every day, most of them were either hyped up by their companies to promote their new movies or shows, or the headlines were exaggerated. In reality, it wasn't that big of a deal, but it always lacked a sense of authenticity and impact. It was nothing like when Zhang Ye was around, where he would stir up some earth-shattering trouble at the drop of a hat. From time to time, he would shock everyone into a mess. It was much more exciting when he was around.
On Weibo …
"Zhang Ye is still resting?"
"It's only been three days."
"Sigh, I miss him!"
"Me too. I look forward to Zhang laoshi's return and create another masterpiece!"
"I wonder what Zhang Ye is doing now."
"This guy can't be sleeping every day, right?"
"What happened to the lilac girl?"
"@ ZhangYe! Get up! "
"@ ZhangYe! Get up! "
"@ ZhangYe! Stop sleeping! "
In the end, no one knew who organized it, but quite a few people joined in with a grin. In an instant, several hundred people on Weibo Zhang Ye to get this guy out of bed.
Unbeknownst to them, Zhang Ye had already woken up.
…
At home.
Seven o'clock.
After eating, Zhang Ye logged into the Go platform in high spirits.
In the end, Wu Zeqing called.
"Old Wu?"
"Are you awake?"
"You're awake. We're going to play chess."
"Still playing chess?"
"Yeah, it's fine to stay here."
"Don't play anymore. My dad is already anxious. If you beat him again, I think he'll really fight you. That's enough."
"Ah? It can't be? "
"Why not? When I got home yesterday, I heard my dad scolding you for the whole night. Hur hur, by the way, my mom also asked me to ask you if you are interested in participating in a professional Go competition. A Go star is also a star, and it is also very popular. My mom asked you if you want to consider it? "
"I'll pass."
"What happened?"
"At my level, I can only fight with our dad, a retired veteran."
"Don't doubt yourself. You're very good."
"Forget it, I'll just stay in the entertainment circle."
"That's true, alright."
"Old Wu, what about us?"
"My mom isn't a big problem, but my dad is."
"I've won so many rounds against our dad, and he still doesn't approve of me? Then wouldn't I have worked for nothing? "
"I didn't do it for nothing. This time, you really made my parents look at you in a different light. Although my dad scolds you fiercely, I can see that he has actually loosened up. My mom also likes you a lot now. How about this, in a few days, I'll take you home again in a few days."
"Alright."
"Then have a good rest, I'll go to work first."
The call ended.
Has it loosened?
Zhang Ye gave a slight smile. Finally, there was some progress.
He had no intention of becoming a Go star. Although it was always good to have another title as it would add to his career and give him a few more accolades, the intensity of professional Go competitions was too high, the competition was too intense, and the span was too long. There were 365 days in a day, and he wished he could train and compete every single day. Those world rankings were actually all accumulated over a long period of time, and Zhang Ye did not have that kind of time. If not for the incident with Wu Zeqing and Wu Changhe, he probably would never have touched Go or Chinese Chess in this lifetime. These sports stars might look very impressive, positive, and respectable, but the price to pay for it was too high. Besides, Zhang Ye had always felt that his Go skills were only average. A retired veteran who couldn't even play in a professional tournament had nearly beaten him, so why would he participate in a professional tournament? Wouldn't that just be asking for a beating? Even if a 5th or 6th dan professional Go player appeared, he probably wouldn't be able to beat them!
Suddenly, the door opened.
His mother came in. "Yo, you didn't play Go today?"
Zhang Ye laughed and said, "No, I won't. I've won too much, and it's getting annoying."
"Kid, keep bragging." His mother naturally did not believe him. She said, "If there's nothing else, hurry up and get changed. Come with me and your dad to go grocery shopping. Your three sisters will be coming over to play with you in the afternoon."
"Bring me to go grocery shopping?"
"Yeah."
"What if I get surrounded at the market?"
"So what if they surround you?"
"Whoa, are you really going to throw caution to the wind?"
"It wasn't easy for me to have such a famous son, so why can't I show off a little?"
"Alright then."
"Hurry up, let's go!"
…
Meanwhile.
At China Qiyuan.
Everyone was gathered here today.
President Dan Donghe, Xiang Rong 9-dan, Li Yi 9-dan. Especially at the Qiyuan's side, almost all of the celebrity professional Go players who could be recognized were present. Many of the other professional players who were not of a high rank were also gathered here. Everyone had an incredulous look on their faces!
Chen Ying said in shock, "Is the news real or fake?"
"Yeah, that's … that's impossible!" Xu Han said in shock.
Dan Donghe said with a serious expression, "I just received the news. It's real and the news is very reliable. It will be broadcast on the news very soon!"
No one cared about YE's matters anymore!
No one cared about the dispute between YE and Changhe 9-dan either!
Because at this moment, the Go world was facing a life-and-death battle. No one could react to it, and no one was even mentally prepared for it. This was because this had happened too suddenly!
"Chen Chi 9-dan lost?"
"How did he lose?!"
"That's impossible!"
"How could that thing beat Chen Chi 9-dan?"
"Could it have been a coincidence?"
"It wasn't a coincidence. Chen Chi lost two consecutive games in a best-of-three format."
"Heavens, this …"
"I just called Chen Chi and asked him what happened. He didn't say much and just told us to be careful! I could tell that he was very frustrated! "
At this moment, Wu Changhe rushed over. "Are you serious?"
Li Yi 9-dan sighed and said, "It's true."
Wu Changhe's face darkened. "Old Dan, I want to see that game."
Xiang Rong 9-dan said, "I'd like to see it too."
Dan Donghe nodded. "I've already asked for it. They'll send it over very soon."
Soon after, the game record was sent over.
Chen Ying volunteered. "Let me review the game."
She used the computer to review the game on the big screen, starting from the first move.
The more everyone watched, the more serious their expressions became. The atmosphere in the entire Qiyuan sank into an oppressive and tense atmosphere!
…
At home.
His three sisters arrived.
Zhang Ye was completely unaware of what was happening in the outside world.
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "Why did you suddenly think of coming over today?"
His eldest younger sister smiled. "I came to play with you."
"Bro, didn't you say you were resting? It's summer break for the three of us, but we're all so flustered. "His second sister giggled and said," I'm so bored. "
Zhang Ye was amused. He pointed to the cabinet behind him and said, "Just nice, I'm free today anyway. Oh yes, a few days ago, after we finished recording the show, Beijing Television sent out quite a few gifts. Some of them were even gifts from others, like VR goggles or perfume. Feel free to take whatever you like, but since you're here with me, don't stand on ceremony with me. Just let me know if you want anything. As long as I have it, just take whatever you like. Don't ever treat —" Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Ye turned around and looked startled.
His third sister was holding a bunch of boxes in her arms. "These are all mine!"
His second sister said anxiously, "Damn, leave some for me! There's still our sis. "
His eldest younger sister also smiled and said, "I want that perfume. Don't fight with me for it."
Zhang Ye said nervously, "Can you guys be a little more polite? Is that alright? "
However, his three sisters looked at him in confusion. "Didn't you tell us not to stand on ceremony?"
"Then you guys should at least let me finish. Whoa, I haven't even finished talking and everything is already gone?" Zhang Ye didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Are you Japanese invading the village?"
His parents also laughed when they heard that.
His mother said, "Take more. Little Ye doesn't need it anyway."
"Roger that! Thank you, Auntie! "His third sister playfully gave a military salute.
Zhang Ye did not know what to do with them and shook his head. Then he picked up the remote control and turned on the television. He wanted to watch today's news. Although he was resting, he still had to pay attention to the entertainment industry and the social news of the outside world.
But the moment he switched it on, the news broadcast on the television stunned Zhang Ye!
On Central TV News Channel.
The host: "An American company has developed a super AI called Peter. In a Go match that ended at 5: 10 AM Beijing Time this morning, it defeated the Chinese-American Chen Chi 9-dan with a score of 2-0. At the same time, the AI Peter has officially declared war on all of humanity. According to our reporters at the China Qiyuan, Peter's research and development company has officially issued a letter of challenge to all of the professional Go players in China, Japan, Korea, and other countries. The reason why Go was chosen is because it is widely recognized as the most difficult and complex board game in the world. This is also the game that best represents humanity's intelligence. Will the intelligence of machines really surpass that of humans? This is destined to be an unprecedented contest! "
Zhang Ye was dumbfounded!
Peter？
Artificial intelligence?
A letter of challenge to all of humanity?
Go?
Holy shit!
Wasn't this the famous AlphaGo from his previous world?
