花椒

Finally, 16th Women’s World Chess Champion 谭中怡 (Tán Zhōngyí) went back home in 重庆 (Chóngqìng), and took off the diva’s dress for quietly resuming the way of life she had before becoming a superstar. She said she is happy to be again at home with her dear parents, who must still take care of her because “I am yet single”, she joked. Being quite reserved (and a bit lazy), she likes to stay at home, and sometimes, as others her age, spends a bit too much time on the computer. Now she needs to rest and take her mind off the “knockout roller coaster”, but more challenges lie ahead for 谭中怡 (Tán Zhōngyí). Though most people probably regards her as a sacrificial lamb on the altar of more high-ranked pretenders, she can rely upon her own steady temperament, however, and most of the thirtythree million people’s hearts of 重庆 (Chóngqìng).
As we previously reported, FIDE President Kirsan Nikolayevich Ilyumzhinov is considering two bids for hosting next year’s Women’s World Chess Championship match: Hong Kong and Singapore. But nothing is yet decided. So I would consider very carefully what 重庆移动通信国际象棋队 (China Mobile Group Chóngqìng Company Ltd.) chess club President 柯萍 (Kē Píng) told 石涛 (Shí Tāo) of news.sina.com.cn about 重庆 (Chóngqìng) municipality’s aim to submit its official application for hosting the next Women’s World Chess Championship match between 谭中怡 (Tán Zhōngyí) and 居文君 (Jū Wénjūn).
