Underdog LiHong Jia reached the semifinals today with a big win over defending champion JiangChuan. Tomorrow he plays Xu YinChuan in the semifinals. ZhaoGuoRong also defeated ZhaoXinXin to advance, as well as HongZhi. The event, which for the first time included non-Chinese participants (Germany’s Stephan Bradler and Jouni Ramo of Finland), is providing a record-breaking prize fund, the winner getting ¥500,000 and a trophy made of pure gold!
