Introduction to taiji chess

Taiji chess was invented by Mr Hu Zhenyu from Qingyuan Manchu Autonomous County, Fushun, Liaoning. It can be divided into two ways: harmonious chess and military chess Now it has been granted a patent right by China National Intellectual Property Administration. Chess is characterized by the vast universe and starry sky as the chessboard background, and the main body of the chess area is the earth, land and sea, which truly achieves a global chess game and can simulate wars on a global scale. China's traditional culture with 28 stars is also included. What is particularly commendable is that the inventor skillfully integrated the Taiji concept in Taoist culture into chess, which made the cultural added value of this chess far exceed the value of chess itself. It can make people look up at the universe, overlook the earth, know life, deduce war and think about the future from a more intuitive perspective.

"Military Taiji Chess" includes eight arms, such as army, navy, air force, aircraft carrier, submarine, missile, country and central government, with 32 pieces on each side 16, and the back of each piece is the same Taiji diagram. "Harmonious Taiji chess" can be divided into "two-player Taiji chess" and "four-player Taiji chess".

"Two-person Taiji Chess" takes the other side of "Military Taiji Chess" as the chess piece of "Two-person Taiji Chess", each side has 16 pieces, totaling 32 pieces; "Four-person Taiji Chess" is similar in shape to Weiqi, but different in number and color. "Four-person Taiji Chess" is divided into four camps: East, West, South and North. Each battalion 16, with 64 pieces in four colors: red, green, black and white.

The chessboard takes the mysterious universe as the background, the beautiful earth as the main body and the heavy atmosphere as the cover. The five-color meaning of the chessboard: the blue color of the chessboard symbolizes the ocean (water); Green symbolizes spring, the east, water and Asia; Red symbolizes summer, south, fire and Africa; Yellow symbolizes autumn, the west, the earth and America; White symbolizes winter, north, gold and Europe; In the center of the chessboard is an Ataturk diagram embracing Yin and Yang, which symbolizes "life, Yin and Yang, structure, rules, mystery, balance, harmony, change and direction". The Tai Chi diagram in the center of the chessboard is called "Supreme Tai Chi", and the other four Tai Chi diagrams are called "Tai Chi Zun Zhi". The "image" of Taiji chess means "image", "everything in the world" and "space quadrant".
