The protagonist of The King of Chess is a person who has good chess skills and knows how to play chess.

A. Don’t do it for fame and fortune, don’t make deals, defend the “purity” of chess, don’t play with things to lose one’s ambition, and “play chess instead of making a living.” (Don’t be greedy for the ranking, it doesn’t matter whether you win or lose, and you will never use your chess skills to buy a better life for yourself, just play chess for the sake of your chess skills.)

B. Pay attention to the "Chinese chess way", pay attention to the "big road" and "little things" The combination of "skills", that is, the fusion of morality, personality, philosophy, wisdom, experience, and skills. ("You have such chess skills at a young age. I have seen that you have gathered Tao and Zen in one furnace. You have clever calculations. You have power first and control others later. You send dragons to control the water. Your energy penetrates yin and yang. Confucian generals in ancient and modern times are nothing more than that. I am lucky enough to be with you. You took over and I have a lot of feelings. After all, the Chinese chess skills are not declining. I am willing to be friends with you forever.")

C. Competition and harmony. Wang Yisheng plays chess with many people not only to improve his skills, but also to have a strong sense of competition.

When the old champion suggested making peace, he said "harmony" without hesitation, which not only reflected Wang's lifelong indifference to fame and fortune, but also reflected the Chinese culture's pursuit of harmony and unity~
