Chapter 437 - 437 Seen Through
437 Seen Through
When Ye Xuan heard everyone’s apologies, he was also happy. He waved his hand and spoke nonchalantly.
“It’s fine. Don’t mind me. I’m a little early.”
When everyone heard this, they secretly heaved a sigh of relief. They were afraid that they would offend Ye Xuan.
After all, Ye Xuan was the chairman of Dinglong Corporation and they knew his weight.
However, when they heard Ye Xuan ask Liu Haikang to surrender, they were also puzzled.
This national player was powerful and had cleverly plotted to devour one-third of Liu Haikang’s troops.
However, the overall situation was still uncertain. Now, they were at the peak of the game. No matter which side it was, they still had the strength to fight.
They couldn’t see the outcome. In this situation, why did Ye Xuan make Liu Haikang admit defeat?
Everyone was puzzled and looked at Ye Xuan in confusion.
“Chairman Ye, we were thinking about what you said just now. The battle between the two sides is at its climax. Why did you ask President Liu to surrender?”
“That’s right, Chairman Ye. I really don’t understand why.”
“Chairman Ye, please enlighten everyone.”
Ye Xuan smiled and sighed as he looked at the chessboard.
“As the saying goes, the person in charge is confused, and the bystander sees things clearly. If you put yourself in the shoes of the person in charge, you naturally won’t understand. Only by staying out of this can you see things clearly.”
“In the current situation, although the two sides are fighting back and forth and the chess game is clear at a glance, there are hidden secrets. They are all killing moves. Therefore, in less than three moves, President Liu will definitely lose.”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
Everyone was a little shocked. They did not expect Ye Xuan to see through the game so clearly. His understanding and control of the game were too good.
However, while they were shocked, they were also filled with disbelief. The so-called hidden secrets were all killing moves, but the chess game was clear at a glance. Everyone saw the other party’s actions.
Where were the secrets?
The troops of both sides were also in a confrontation at the last minute. How could there be a killing move?
Therefore, they didn’t believe it and thought that Ye Xuan was just making a guess.
All the arrangements and control of the chess game were in his mind. Even if he fell into a trap and a portion of his chess pieces were swallowed, it was not a big deal.
Although he did not have 100% confidence in controlling the entire situation, he could at least have a 60% chance of winning against his opponent.
If any of them were to lose, they would have to wait at least dozens of rounds to see the signs of success or failure.
However, Ye Xuan said that he would definitely lose within three moves. Wasn’t this a joke?
Liu Haikang was already an old man, so he had a certain level of judgment when it came to distinguishing between real and fake.
Therefore, he didn’t believe Ye Xuan’s words at all. He smiled and thought that Ye Xuan was joking.
Hence, he picked up a black piece and placed it according to the steps he had planned beforehand. He returned to his original state and thought about the next few steps.
However, when the national player opposite him heard Ye Xuan’s words, a glint flashed across his eyes. He narrowed his eyes but did not say anything.
Seeing that Liu Haikang had already placed his piece, and everything was within his expectations, the national player smiled and gently raised his hand to put the white piece at an ordinary position.
The first move was completed.
Liu Haikang smiled secretly and scanned the entire situation. Then, he raised his hand and moved a black piece to another attack point.
He was overjoyed at the large pile of white pieces that he was about to annex.
Taking down this portion of the white pieces would clearly be a huge loss for the national player.
Moreover, it could affect the overall situation and had an indelible contribution to his victory.
However, just as Liu Haikang was overjoyed, the national player opposite him suddenly raised his hand and placed the white chess piece in a position that no one expected and even ignored.
With a bang, Liu Haikang’s dream was shattered.
The second move was completed.
The two moves did not seem to be connected, but they were tightly connected like lifelines. They turned the entire chess game upside down.
In an instant, the trap that Liu Haikang had set up and the momentum that he had unleashed were all reduced to ashes.
It turned out that all the actions of the national player were to pave the way for these last few steps.
Meanwhile, Liu Haikang had always been led by the nose by the national player and thought that he had a huge advantage.
In the end, those so-called advantages were all given to him by the national player. Behind the seemingly glorious scene were a few fatal weaknesses.
The national player had always held Liu Haikang’s weaknesses and lifelines firmly in his hands.
In the end, when the overall situation took shape, everything was in place. With just two pieces, Liu Haikang’s momentum was reduced to ashes.
As for the last piece, just as Ye Xuan had said, after it landed, Liu Kang lost everything.
There was no doubt that he would lose. There was no possibility of remedy or reversal.
Seeing this scene, cold sweat suddenly broke out on Liu Haikang’s forehead. His raised right hand trembled slightly, and the black chess piece in his hand fell weakly. It hit the chessboard with a bang.
His eyes were wide open in disbelief. He had thought that he would only see the signs of victory after dozens of rounds.
Unexpectedly, it was as Ye Xuan said.
The game was decided in three moves. He would definitely lose!
Liu Haikang let out a long breath. After a while, his face gradually regained its smile. He cupped his hands at the national player.
“Sir is really amazing. I admit defeat.”
After saying that, he turned around and cupped his hands at Ye Xuan.
“Aiya, Chairman Ye has sharp eyes and superb chess skills. I, Liu, have really lost my mind. I’m sorry.”
As soon as Liu Haikang finished speaking, the surrounding CEOs gradually recovered from their shock and exclaimed.
“Chairman Ye is too amazing. He really made three moves and the outcome was decided.”
“Wonderful, wonderful. It’s really too wonderful. It’s really as Chairman Ye said. It looked like an ordinary chess game, but there are hidden profundities. Every step is a killer move.”
“Seeing that the overall situation has been settled, the national player made three moves and activated all the profound killing moves. It’s really breathtaking.”
“As expected of Chairman Ye. His taste is really inferior to ours. He saw through the entire game at a glance. Brilliant, really brilliant!”
“I didn’t expect Chairman Ye’s chess skills to be so powerful. I really can’t imagine that there are so many mysteries hidden in this chess game. This chess game is really satisfying.”
“It’s really too exciting. As expected of Chairman Ye.”
…
Ye Xuan smiled when he heard everyone’s praises. Although he had thousands of words in his heart, he didn’t say anything on the surface.
Meanwhile, the national player was also shocked. He did not expect this seven or eight-year-old child in front of him to be able to see through his trap at a glance. He even saw through every step he was going to do next.
