新年好 ! 现在读秒开始

新年好! 新年读秒现在开始. 午夜, 在泰晤士河, 将燃放十分钟烟花. Countdown to New Year commences right now. With the chimes of Big Ben at midnight, a spectacular ten-minute fireworks display will be set alight over the River Thames, with London Eye as the radiating centre. Le compte à rebours à la nouvelle année débute en ce moment. Avec les carillons de Big Ben à minuit, une demonstration spectaculaire de feux d'artifice de dix-minute illuminera au-dessus du fleuve Tamise, avec London Eye comme centre de rayonnement.

When the climax is reached

30日第3轮 许银川胜洪智 徐天红负汪洋 柳大华和蒋川 赵国荣胜陶汉明 吕钦胜于幼华 3rd round 30th December Xu Yinchuan beat Hong Zhi Xu Tianhong lost to Wang Yang Liu Dahua drew with Jiang Chuan Zhao Guorong beat Tao Hanming Lu Qin beat Yu Youhua In the book 'Xiangqi Basic Tactics', with a translation by Zhang Quansheng, it is mentioned that a game of Xiangqi can be divided into three stages: the opening, the middle game and the endgame. The three stages are closely linked. In the opening stage, both sides deploy their forces in a battle formation, and each player vies to occupy the strategic points on the chess board. The middle game can be directly influenced by the opening play. Quite often, a game is going to be decided in the endgame, when the climax of the battle is reached (over). If one player has taken the initiative in the opening stage, he or she can rely on the strength (of the initiative) to develop further and gaining more superiority. On the other hand, though a player has lost the advantage at the ope...

Something good is back

今天发现 河北象棋网 可以再打开了, 这是好消息, 不是吗? 朋友有时消失几天, 演失踪游戏了, 仍需要被接触了. Today discovered Hebei Xiangqi Website is back to normal, this is good news, isn't? Aujourd'hui on peut lire les pages de Hebei Xiangqi , c'est une bonne chose, n'est-ce pas?

Xiangqi talk

Translation of an interesting article by yzp in Guangdong Xiangqi website : Recently Chinese Chess is not red hot enough, for many reasons. Well established traditional tournaments (brand name) are too few, this is one of the reasons. At the moment, apart from some regular tournaments such as the Asian and World Championships, plus a handful of Teams and Individuals competitions, such other tournaments having real influence are still a rarity. Take the "5-Rams Cup" for example, which can be considered as the top brand name, yet it is a creation from the 80's. "Jiazhou Cup" is around for several years now, has yet to achieve greater influence, time will tell whether it can take up its position as a brand name with long years tradition. The "Masters Tournaments" lack the ability to attract better attention, though the fact that they can create Grandmasters' norms is a good point. "Yinli Cup" has good reputation, with more than ten years tou...

Tournaments in prosperity

从广东象棋网读到yzp先生大作: '(原创)为象棋传统赛事太少而叹息', 请求允许转载, 谢谢 ! 近年来象棋不够红火,原因很多. 传统赛事(品牌)太少应是其中之一. 目前除了世界、亚洲、全国的少数几个传统的团体、个人赛事以外,其他杯赛,历年统计虽然不少,但真正影响大的传统杯赛则凤毛麟角. “五羊杯”算是头号品牌,也还是上世纪八十年代的产物;“嘉周杯”虽有几年历史,但影响还不是很大,而且,能否成为历史悠久的品牌还有待时间检验;“大师赛”虽有诞生特大的亮点,但规格不高,对眼球的吸引力不大;“银荔杯”虽是拥有十多年历史的响当当的品牌,但可惜今年停办了. 其他的,扳指算来,好象多是昙花一现. 围棋的传统品牌,世界级的就有一大堆. 象棋的,连全国性的都很少,有的老品牌流失了,新品牌一时难于打造,战场不足,各路英雄有再高的武艺也只能“憋”着,棋迷有再高的热情也只能“憋”着,“憋”到花儿开了谢、谢了开,还是少得可怜的那几个赛事,好些棋手还没有参赛资格!一年到头没有资格参赛的棋手不知道有多少?棋迷的期望也是如此,望来望去还是那几个赛事、那几个面孔,象棋怎能红火起来呢? 也许有的朋友会说,五、六十年代没有多少赛事,象棋还不是很热闹吗?是的,五、六十年代,象棋可算是第一个繁荣时期,其中一个原因是:象棋虽然古已有之,但新中国成立之前,由于战乱等原因,许多象棋人都未能拥有必要的外部环境. 新中国成立初期,百废待兴,象棋人拥有了和平环境,压抑已久的激情一朝迸发,就不足为奇了. 于是,群众性的擂台赛和其他自发性比赛应运而生. 尔后,随着全国象棋赛的举办,象棋人的激情更高了. 无论是棋手还是棋迷,那种新奇与狂热,是不需要用比赛的数量来引发的. 夸张地说,也许像后来人们关注第一颗卫星升天时一样激情澎湃吧. 象棋的这种红火延续了好几年. 可惜,“文革”的到来,使新中国陷进了灾难的深渊,象棋当然也难逃厄运. 因此,新中国成立到“文革”前,象棋的繁荣,不需要用很多传统赛事来支撑,只需要拥有一些赛事,哪怕还不是很多的赛事. 七十年代后期,随着“文革”结束,中国又走进了一个百废待兴的历史时期. 象棋也重现生机. 八十年代以后,改革开放,百业渐兴,象棋也乘上了“顺风车”,或者说像一节车厢挂在滚滚前行的“中国列车”上,各种比赛如雨后春笋地举办,一切都还是那么新鲜. 棋手、棋迷都对象棋倾注了莫大...
