With the national "One Belt and One Road" as the central idea and the cultural power as the guideline, the quintessence of Chinese culture is committed to spreading China's 5,000 years of quintessence culture and spreading China's excellent Go culture, so that the quintessence of Chinese culture can be inherited.

Weiqi is a treasure in the traditional culture of the Han nationality, which reflects the pursuit of wisdom of the Han nationality. The ancients often used "Qin, chess, calligraphy and painting" to discuss individual talent and accomplishment, in which "Weiqi" refers to Weiqi. Weiqi, which is likened to the black and white world for people, is the favorite entertainment and competitive activity of ancient Chinese people, and it is also the longest chess game in human history. Because Weiqi integrates science, art and competition, it has the characteristics of developing intelligence, cultivating the quality of will and flexible strategic and tactical ideology, so it has been prosperous for thousands of years and gradually developed into an international cultural competition activity.

It uses a square checkerboard and black and white round chess pieces to play, there are 19 straight lines on the board and the board is divided into 361 crossing points, the chess pieces walk on the crossing points, the two sides alternate, can not move after the drop, to surround the more ground to win. In ancient Chinese Weiqi, the black and white sides placed two pieces at the diagonal star position (diagonal star layout), which is a seat son system, with the white chess first. Modern Weiqi developed from Japan, cancelling the seat rule, black first and white later, making the changes of Weiqi more complex and changeable. Go is also considered the most complex board game in the world.

Dynamic and static

Although black and white are not the most beautiful colors, but in the integration of that black and white world, but gave birth to many colorful beautiful.

The Go player lands on the board and appears to be stationary on the surface. But because of the connection between the son and the son, so that his blood once activated, it is 10,000 horses galloping, a thousand miles away. Moving is tangible, static is invisible, step by step to go down will be solid and secure, life is also the same, the movement is appropriate to go steadfast.

Thickness and thinness

People who think quickly, quickly, everywhere, chess shape has a weak worry. Steady and calm people, step by step, step by step, chess shape thick, but there are backward worries.

In the world of Go, there are those who are weak and ahead, and there are those who are strong and catch up. The chess is weak, the first call, the first opportunity. Chess thick, saving strength, full of effort. Thin light abandoned dull, must endure the pain of abandonment. Thick take solid abandon flashy, must endure dull folly. Can be light but not floating, heavy but not sinking, you know the thickness.

Weiqi is extensive and profound, the essence of Chinese culture and philosophy for thousands of years. Playing Weiqi from time to time is of great help to our moral cultivation, logical thinking and personal cultivation. At the same time, we also hope that this national essence can be carried forward and more and more people can fall in love with Weiqi.
