Kong Jie, a Chinese Go player, was born in Beijing on November 26, 1982. He began to learn chess at the age of 6, and in 1994, the talented Kong Jie entered the dan at the age of 12, embarked on a career path, entered the Beijing Go team in the same year, and was soon selected for the national junior training team, becoming a juvenile national player, studying under Liu Xiaoguang Jiudan. In 2000, Kong Jie began to emerge, and the young man became famous by reaching the final four of the Chunlan Cup. At that time, he went all the way to cho sun-jin and Choi Myung-hoon, two famous Korean generals, into the quarter-finals, and in the quarter-finals, it was even more incredible to cut off the peak of the Korean famous General Cao Xuan-hyun and reach the top four.
2009 was the year of Kong Jie's real rise, and in June of that year, he won the championship in a row against South Korea's Kang Dong-yun, Lee Chang-ho and Lee Sedol at the 21st Asian Cup Quick Chess Tournament, and with this championship, he rose straight to the ninth dan and became the 29th nine-dan player in China. In December 2009, at the 14th Samsung Cup, Kong Jie made a comeback, defeating Qiu Jun 2-0 and winning his first world championship. A blockbuster Kong Jie, no one could stop at that time. In February 2010, the 14th LG Cup final won the second world championship with a 2-0 clean sheet, South Korean master Lee Chang-ho won the second world championship; in June, he won the Asian Cup Quick Chess Championship; in July, Fujitsu Cup final defeated another South Korean master Lee Sedol in 19 and a half to win the third world championship, achieving a stunning three-time championship in a year.
It is regrettable that The peak period of Kong Jie is only this year, in the second half of 2010, Kong Jie began to go downhill, the road to defending the Samsung Cup was unexpectedly terminated by Luo Xuan, although the LG Cup reached the final, but no one expected that this final turned out to be the final of Kong Jie's World Series, and this game was crisply lost to the opponent. Kong Jie suddenly flashed like a comet and quickly fell!
After 2011, Kong Jie's state plummeted, and there was no great achievement on the field, in August 2012, Kong Jie was slaughtered by Bai Hongshu at the Asian Cup, losing his last championship title, and the rating score was also very low, after which he faded out of the chess world, and it was difficult to find him in the big game. Although there is only one year of shining, Kong Jie's contribution to Chinese Go is outstanding, this year he swept the major competitions, achieved an impressive record of 29 wins and 2 losses in the world championships, he won four wins over Lee Chang-ho, three wins over Lee Sedol, two wins over Park Yong-hoon, two wins over Choi Chul-han, and won the Korean masters over and over again.
Chinese Go is also from the gemini star Gu Li, Kong Jie after the rise, compared with South Korea is not at the disadvantage, and even occupies a certain upper hand, but failed to completely suppress South Korea, the rise of Gu Li, Kong Jie in turn has almost suppressed the Korean Go as the symbol of the second Lee is a bit breathless!
In terms of personal feelings, Kong Jie, nicknamed "Xiaomei" and known as the first handsome man in the chess world, is even more colorful, he has been in love with the beautiful chess player Gu Xiaobing for many years, but finally married Chen Xiaoyun, a talent star who participated in the supergirl.
Gu Xiaobing is an international grandmaster of chess, a member of the Chinese national team, the main player of the Jiangsu Provincial Chess Women's Team, and also serves as a commentator in the chess column on CCTV. Kong Jie had been in love with Gu Xiaobing for many years, and even reached the stage of talking about marriage, but for various reasons, the two finally broke up. In March 2017, Gu Xiaobing and Zhao Jun, the talented son of the National Elephant, were happily married!
Kong Jie's current wife, Chen Xiaoyun, is a Hangzhou girl who graduated from Zhejiang University of Media and Communication and has participated in the Supergirl Competition. Chen Xiaoyun participated in the 2006 Hangzhou Super Girls Talent Show, and also participated in the entertainment program "Boys and Girls" Hangzhou Division Audition, and then served as the female anchor of the Asian Games Go program, and is a talent star. However, Chen Xiaoyun and Go also have deep roots, she was once a Chong Duan teenager, was selected for the national junior women's team, and is a Go five-dan player.
Kong Jie's relationship with Chen Xiaoyun was exposed in early 2009, when Kong Jie's results were not very good, and he repeatedly broke in international competitions, so his new relationship was also controversial. However, with the explosion of Kong Jie in 2009, Chen Xiaoyun's image as his girlfriend has also become positive, and it is considered by many to be one of the key roles in Kong Jie's "transformation".
On September 17, 2012, the two held a grand wedding in Bali, after the marriage, the two also had a son Kong Zaixi, who is also very passionate about playing chess, Kong Jie even opened a Go school for his son, and now the family of three is also living happily together!
