This European Go Congress will also host the 14th Yan Huang Cup, details on this can be found in the bulletin.  Nie Weiping will be a special guest, and this friendship match takes place straight after his lecture.  It will be a rengo match, so you will be in contact with up to three Chinese people while playing one game.  Maybe one of them will be Nie Weiping.
