I never thought the top figure in Chinese chess would be sentenced for bribery and match-fixing.黄刚: I saw it. The impact is huge. Wang Tianyi confessed in court and admitted to taking money multiple times to manipulate matches. It’s really disappointing.赵强: Chinese chess has always given people an impression of integrity and purity. Now with so many grandmasters involved in 'match trading,' it’s really tarnished the image.黄刚: Indeed, it shows that professional sports must strengthen oversight. Not only football or basketball — even intellectual games like Xiangqi can’t escape corruption.赵强: I heard the Xiangqi Association has given them lifetime bans and will start education and legal awareness programs. Hopefully this will serve as a real warning.黄刚: Yes, Xiangqi carries culture and spirit. Only by maintaining fairness and integrity can it regain the respect of its fans.赵强: I hope the Xiangqi world can return to honesty and people won’t associate ‘grandmasters’ with ‘buying games’ anymore.黄刚: I believe after this scandal, Chinese chess will become cleaner and stronger than before.
