Weiqi is a strategic two-player chess game, which was called "Yi" in ancient China and "Weiqi" in the west. Popular in East Asian countries (China, Japan, Korea and North Korea), it belongs to one of the four major arts of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. Weiqi originated in China and was handed down by Emperor Yao. It was recorded in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, it was introduced to Japan through Korea and then to European and American countries. Weiqi contains rich cultural connotations in China, which is the embodiment of China culture and civilization.
Weiqi uses rectangular chessboards and black and white round pieces. There are 19 vertical and horizontal lines and 36 1 intersections on the regular chessboard. Chess pieces must walk at the intersection of non-forbidden points in space, and both sides can play games alternately. You can't move or regret after playing chess. You win with more numbers. Because the black side has the first-hand advantage, it is artificially stipulated that the black side should give the white side a look at the end of the game. The competition rules formulated by different countries such as China, Japan and South Korea are slightly different.
