At home.
Zhang Ye's father roared, "He won!"
His mother shouted, "Little Ye won Go!"
There was a knock on the door. When his mother went to open it, more than 20 of his neighbors rushed into the house. They all looked even more excited than Zhang Ye's parents!
"Congratulations!"
"Old Zhang, Old Cao, you two have a good son!"
"Little Ye won beautifully!"
"I have nothing to say! I'm sweating all over watching this! "
"That was so thrilling! So exciting! "
"Little Ye has brought glory to everyone!"
"I knew he could do it!"
"This is what those Americans get for looking down on Little Ye! This is what they get for looking down on humans! Hahaha! They've met a true god this time! That bunch of idiots! "
"Face smacking!"
"Ahahaha!"
"I feel so sorry for those idiots!"
...
At the Rao house.
Chenchen said loudly, "Zhang Ye has won! He's in the limelight again! "
Rao Aimin curled her lips. "That kid got lucky!"
"What do you mean by lucky?" Yang Shu did not like hearing that. "My Senior Bro is really good!"
Rao Aimin smirked. "He only knows how to do some unorthodox things. Why can't he just stay at home? Why is he in the limelight of the Go world again? Who's going to help him deal with the reporters? "
...
At the SARFT.
In Old Wu's office.
Wu Zeqing smiled and picked up her cell phone to call Secretary Bai. "Hello, it's me. Tell your subordinates to increase the positive publicity for today's war between humans and machines."
Then she made a phone call to her mother.
The call connected.
It was very chaotic on the other end. There was screaming everywhere!
"Mom, how did it go?"
"Little Zhang is amazing! He's really amazing! "
"Has my dad's impression of him changed?"
"Hur hur, your dad is so excited that he can't speak. You didn't see it, but when Peter admitted defeat, your dad's voice was the loudest … Hey, hey, why did you snatch my phone?"
Wu Changhe's voice rang out. "Daughter, don't listen to your mom's nonsense. It's a draw now, one to one. That kid hasn't won yet!"
Wu Zeqing smiled and said, "Alright, when he wins tomorrow, I'll bring him home as my boyfriend for dinner, alright?"
Wu Changhe said, "We'll talk about that after he wins."
...
On TV.
The livestream continued!
Quite a few experts were analyzing the game from earlier. "Today, Professor Zhang played with the momentum of a human. From the opening move, he led Peter by the nose. That brand-new and imaginative playstyle at the end made Peter suffer even more. This is the biggest difference between humans and computers, and also the biggest reason why Professor Zhang could win the game. It's because humans are full of creativity, while machines can only learn passively! Today is a memorable day. Professor Zhang has taught the Americans and the artificial intelligence that claims to be smarter than humans a lesson! "
Another television station.
The commentator said, "Let's look at Professor Zhang's final move. It's really a stroke of genius. It's so beautiful that there's nothing else I can say! At that moment, we have no way of knowing how Professor Zhang thought of this move. But this move was like a fairy from beyond the heavens that saved the Go world! Without a doubt, this was the most precious move in the history of Go! This is truly the Hand of God! "
"Ah, the press conference has already begun. Let's cut the camera to that. It looks like Professor Zhang will also be making an exception for a post-match interview today!"
…
China Qiyuan.
At the venue of the press conference.
The American representative was seated at the front as usual. Zhang Ye and several people from China Qiyuan were also seated beside him.
The reporters were bombarding the American representative with questions.
"May I know the reason why Peter lost today?"
"Didn't you say that your company's AI would not lose to humans?"
"Do you still have confidence in tomorrow's match?"
The American representative answered all of their questions in one breath. No one knew if he was pretending or not, but he did not look as gloomy as he did at the press conference. He put on a very calm expression and said, "Today's loss was an accident. Perhaps it was because we did not do our debugging work properly, or it could have been due to some internal bugs in the program. As for the exact reason, we will go back and check it out. We will definitely fix it before tomorrow's match. Peter will not lose to humans in Go, and I still stand by what I said. We are very confident in tomorrow's match. I believe that after the adjustments, Peter will definitely clinch the final victory."
A female reporter from Beijing Television asked, "When you were interviewed earlier, you mentioned that the flight tickets were for tonight. I wonder if …"
The assistant of the American representative said with a sunken expression, "We've already changed the flight tickets. We will do our best for tomorrow's match."
A newspaper reporter asked, "May I know what your evaluation of Professor Zhang is?"
The American representative glanced at Zhang Ye and said, "We also admit that there are indeed some geniuses in this world, but I still hold the same view. The future will be the era of artificial intelligence!"
After dilly-dallying for a long time, he still refused to admit defeat!
Towards the end, the reporters were no longer in the mood to ask questions and turned their attention to Zhang Ye.
The Beijing Times reporter smiled and said, "Professor Zhang, after yesterday's match, you said that you would not accept any interviews."
Zhang Ye leaned close to the microphone. "Yes."
"Then why are you here today?" the Beijing Times person asked.
Zhang Ye answered matter-of-factly, "Because I won today!"
The reporters laughed!
Then, many people applauded!
Zhang Ye was Zhang Ye. He never beat around the bush when he spoke. If he lost, he would not accept any interviews. But if he won, of course he would show off. Wasn't that something very normal?
Dan Donghe also laughed. The more he looked at Zhang Ye, the more he liked him!
A female reporter asked, "How do you feel after winning today?"
Zhang Ye chuckled and said, "It feels great!"
Everyone laughed again.
Meanwhile, the Americans had dark expressions on their faces.
Yu Yingyi also came over to the audience and asked, "Professor Zhang, do you have anything to say?"
Zhang Ye smiled and said, "I only have one thing to say right now — the smartest AI in history? That's all there is to it! "
These were the words of the American representative yesterday. Today, Zhang Ye returned them to them!
The reporters applauded!
"Great!"
"Well said!"
Everyone here was human, so they were naturally biased towards Zhang Ye. Moreover, the Americans had indeed been too arrogant and condescending these past few days. They were very disgusted by it, but Peter had been going on a rampage. Even the number one Go player, Xiang Rong 9-dan, had lost to it, so their confidence had been dwindling. Until today, when Zhang Ye had helped humanity to turn the tables, many of the reporters could finally breathe a sigh of relief!
Sure enough, it was still Face-smacking Zhang who was better!
Although this fellow was usually hateful, had a vicious tongue, and had offended too many people, he would never show mercy at the critical moment. He had never disappointed anyone before!
Zhang Ye had too many enemies, and there were probably some people here who had been offended by him as well. A lot of people felt that Zhang Ye was too difficult to deal with. He was always stirring up trouble and smacking faces. The crux of the matter was that no one could deal with him. This fellow was a very troublesome character in the country. He was feared by everyone who saw him and had a notorious reputation. But today, when everyone stood on the same side as Zhang Ye, they suddenly felt that Face-smacking Zhang was too reliable. Seeing him smack the faces of the Americans and the AI, that feeling was indescribably great!
Online.
Fan Wenli posted on Weibo: "Congratulations to Director Zhang for taking the next game!"
Xiaodong: "How satisfying! This is so satisfying! "
Yao Jiancai: "Zhang'er, you're about to break out of the universe!"
Li Xiaoxian: "Congratulations to Teacher Zhang for taking the next game!"
Zhang Xia also joined in on the fun. "Little Zhang's game today has finally saved humanity's face. Everyone, please don't scold him so much in the future. It hasn't been easy for Little Zhang either, hur hur."
The press conference ended.
Not long after, Zhang Ye stepped out of the Qiyuan.
In the end, three layers of people inside and three layers of people outside had already blocked the entrance tightly!
Several hundred people!
No, it was more than a thousand people!
The densely packed crowd was holding up banners and shouting Zhang Ye's name!
"Zhang Ye!"
"Zhang Ye!"
"Zhang Ye!"
"Zhang Ye!"
The crowd was excited!
Everyone's blood was boiling!
