Features: The question of how high Go player Wu Qingyuan's skill level truly was has become somewhat unclear. Since Wu Qingyuan's retirement, decades have passed. During this time, a series of outstanding players have emerged, captivating the world with their dramatic performances in the Go world—tragicomedies of intense competition, grand and moving. However, this has also led to a misunderstanding, as people may assume that these outstanding players and Wu Qingyuan were merely natural phenomena in the evolution of Go, with each generation producing talented individuals who dominated the scene for decades. In summary, Wu Qingyuan can be considered a Go player of unparalleled stature throughout history, embodying the phrase "no predecessors to see, no successors to behold." The purpose of this book is to reveal Wu Qingyuan's unmatched creativity, which shines brilliantly throughout. Creativity is the lifeblood of a Go player, and the fire of creativity and risk-taking is the harbinger of blooming flowers in the Go world. Faced with the current world of Go shrouded in conservative fog, perhaps it is time to shout loudly: let the fire of creativity and risk-taking burn even more fiercely!
