"Hello, Teacher Chihara, I am Lu Xiuxuan, the translator arranged for you by the Chess Academy."

At this time, an urban beauty in white and black dress stood in front of Hiroshi Chihara, bowing and saying respectfully.

"Teacher Sakai?" Chihara Hiroshi couldn't help but look at Sakai Takayuki beside him.

The reason is that among the six chess players, he is the only one who translates as female, and the others are all male, so the difference is too obvious.

But Sakai Takayuki patted his shoulder and said with a smile:

"Since it is an interpreter arranged by the Korean Chess Institute, this is also his job!"

The meaning of the words is ‘Accept it’.

Lin Haifeng, who was familiar with him, teased:

"Kun Chihara, I envy you very much. Why don't we change it?"

Lu Xiuxuan looked helpless.

Hiroshi Chihara directly refused, which made everyone present laugh.

"Miss Lu, please give me some advice in the next week."

Hearing Qianyuan's words, Lu Xiuxuan quickly replied and said:

"Teacher Chihara, please give me some advice!"

...

This year's Fujitsu Cup is held in South Korea, and not only the Japanese delegation stayed in this hotel, but also the Chinese delegation.

At the welcome dinner, Hiroshi Chihara met Ma Yingchun, whom he hadn't seen for a long time:

"Teacher Ma, we're meeting again!"

Ma Yingchun also seemed very happy and said:

"Kun Qianyuan, I heard that you have already won the throne battle, the challenge right of Tianyuan battle, and the situation of the celebrity battle is also very good. I am here to congratulate you in advance!"

Chihara Hiroshi shook his head and said:

"The game is not over yet, and the result is still unsure."

Lin Haifeng was at the next table. Whether he heard it or not, this was a respect for it.

Ma Yingchun smiled and stopped continuing the topic, but asked:

"By the way, why haven't you seen you on IGS in the past few months? Are you too busy?"

In the first half of the year, the two often played Go online, but in the second half of the year, the number of Qianyuan login has decreased significantly, and in recent months, even people have been unable to see it.

Chihara Hiroshi nodded:

"The schedule of the past few months is very intensive, and I guess I will have more free time next year."

Thinking of the other party's terrifying game count, Ma Yingchun said very understandingly:

"Indeed, I was exhausted physically and mentally after the game, and I really didn't have much intention to go online again."

At this time, after the chairman of the Korean Chess Academy delivered a speech, he invited the heads of the Chinese and Japanese delegations to go up.

Takayuki Sakai and a middle-aged man in a black suit were humble to each other and walked onto the stage together.

Hiroshi Chihara looked up at the stage and asked:

"Is that Mr. Nie Shuping?"

The other party looked gentle and polite. When the chairman of the Korean Chess Academy handed him the microphone, he first thanked the Korean Chess Academy, and then said a joke from a local slang, which made the Korean chess players present laugh, but unfortunately Chiwan didn't understand.

"Yes, it's him." Ma Yingchun said just this and then stopped talking.

When Chihara Hiroshi returned to the area of ​​the Japanese delegation, his temporary translator was talking to a male in Korean.

Seeing him come back, Lu Xiuxuan said a quick word to the other party, and then the two of them walked towards him together.

"Teacher Chihara, this is the secretary of the chairman. Our chairman will come here later."

While speaking, the chairman secretary of the Korean Chess Academy bowed 90° and said another sentence in Korean.

"He said that the chairman has always admired you very much. It is our honor to see you this time." Lu Xiuxuan translated.

"You're so kind."

As expected, as the other party said, ten minutes later, the speech ended, and the chairman of the Korean Chess Institute followed Takayuki Sakai and walked straight towards this side.

"Are you the Qianyuan Chu Duan? It's true that you are a heroic boy, extraordinary!"

Hearing the translation, Hiroshi Chihara humbled himself a few words.

The other party's name is Park Tae Nian, who is about the same age as Sakai Takayuki, but his body size is much wider.

Judging from the conversation, he is a very talkative person.

"...It's a pity that Li Changmin didn't come here. You two are only one year apart. If you encounter it, there should be many common topics."

As he said that, he offered to say goodbye:

"I, the old man, won't bother you anymore. Chihara Chuduan, please enjoy the dinner."

Then, he greeted several other chess players and left with his secretary.

Sakai Takanobu asked:

"How about it, are you still used to the atmosphere of the dinner?"

"Well, the food tastes very good." Chihara Hiroshi praised casually.

Sakai Takayuki couldn't help but choked, obviously not what he wanted to ask, but he opened his mouth and still didn't continue.

At this moment, a voice came from behind:

"Mr. Sakai, is this Chihara Hiroshi?"

Qianyuan Haozhi looked back and saw that it was Nie Shuping who was just still on the stage.

The other party has a good Japanese level, it is a pure Tokyo standard language, and its tone is very casual, obviously very familiar with Takayuki Sakai.

Sakai Takano said "yes" and introduced to Chihara:

"This is Nie Shuping, Jiudan, Qianyuan, from the Chinese Chess Academy, please say hello."

"For the first time meeting, please give me some advice."

"I should have said that," Nie Shuping patted his shoulder and said, "Kun Qianyuan, don't you mind calling you that, do you?"

Hiroshi Chihara said, "Please give me some advice."

Nie Shuping continued:

"Kun Chiyuan, I have long admired your 'Chianyuanliu' for a long time. How about it? Is it a party later?"

Without waiting for Chihara to speak, Takayuki Sakai directly refused:

"You don't have to participate in the first round tomorrow. Qianyuan is different. Let's forget it this time. If you are really interested in "Chianyuanliu", you'd better wait until the competition."

"That's a pity," Nie Shuping still refused to give up and asked Qianyuan again, "If Qianyuan Jun doesn't dislike him, would he be willing to visit the China Chess Academy?"

Qianyuan Haozhi was slightly stunned and said two seconds later:

"I have promised Senior Fujisawa that I will visit China early next year."

"Did you agree?" This time, Nie Shuping was stunned. Then he seemed to think of something again, and said with a smile, "Senior Fujisawa, you really have it!"

Obviously, there are still twists and turns in it.

However, the other party obviously did not want to say much about this, but said "Waiting for the good news", then he looked at Sakai and asked, "Mr. Sakai, how is that child?"

Sakai Takayuki's expression was also solemn, and he nodded:

"Don't worry, he is already a student of the Japan Chess Academy and is preparing to enter the stage test. As for life, with the care of us old friends, there will be no big problems. It's just that the child is stubborn by nature and refuses to accept your funding. Even if I change my name, I will still be returned..."
