Trophies for this semester! Look at the huge trophy, Qiuyu’s name is on it: last year’s champion team:
Sparkling moment with buddies:
Last round with Weihan, yeah, again…
Smily Qiuyu can be very tough at board:
Now, things get serious…

After an awful chess tournament over the weekend, Qiuyu needs several winning to boost himself.
With Yuqing again, he won this time.

No game.
Qiuyu was like a computer engine today. He got full mark for his homework and solved lots of problems ahead of other kids. Thus he was rewarded a lot of times of controlling the computer I front of the class.
He was very excite today. I guess that is called pleasant self-fulfilment.

We went for Holloween chess tournaments arranged by Chess & Math. Qiuyu was having a hard time for his homework. This week we need to come up a solution.

Won a game with Mathieu. Lost 2 pawns in middle game, but still remained calm and counterattacked and nailed a win. I thought he was losing, but it turned out you never know what it is going to be if it is QIUYU who is playing.

Lost a game to Anand today. Fail to defense properly. He decided to do Mixed problems on ChessTempo.
October 4, 2015:
Lost a game to Wei Han Luo this week. Almost cried. I took him out for a walk; waited until his frustration faded away. I was acting like a cheer leader which I am very proud of myself.
He has lost a couple of games lately. It is not necessary a bad thing. The good thing is that he actually begins to think about it. When we start to think about the situation that we are facing in an positive and active way, things could be different. It changes the way that we deal with things. It also might alter the direction that leads to our solutions.
The only thing that we can do when facing bottleneck is to take a step back, re-assessing our weakness and strength; re-mapping our plan; keeping positive mentality and most importantly: NEVER lose faith in ourselves.
Photo for that game: If it is all about intimidation, Kingscrusher actually sounds more effective.

The beginning of the Sunday Elite Club!
“It was cool. I got the chance to play against Weihan Luo, you know him right? He is a good player and obviously underrated. He sacrificed a pawn to earn a good position- I counter-attacked him and nailed a won.”
“Lefong explained an immortal game(immortal? Are you sure it is not ‘epic’ or ‘memorable’?) between Weiyi and XX. Weiyi won in a beautiful way. Really awesome. His king goes like this: from here to there and his opponent lost here”
“Zachary and Lunkun came also, but the class was very quiet, which is not normal because usually they are loud, quoted by Lefong.”
