"I play chess. I think deeply. I'm just getting started."
About
I grew up in Shenzhen, a city that never stops moving — and somehow, chess taught me to slow down and see further. I became a Grandmaster at a young age, representing China on the national team, but the game has always been more than titles to me. It's a way of thinking, a discipline, a language I speak fluently. Now, as a chess grandmaster, student, writer and content creator, I'm glad to work together with the global chess community and share with fans on chess, thinking, and a lot more.

A Game I Love
The Immortal Sacrifice
vs. GM Hans Moke Niemann (2708) · Sicilian Defense, Rossolimo Variation (B30)
"I sacrificed another pawn to pour fuel on my kingside attack — then came 26...Rxg2+!, storming the castle. Even I felt the compensation might be insufficient, but I was just happy to have a fighting chance."
