Zhang Jilin’s blog
One of my pleasant discoveries in the Asean+ tourney is finding out that WGM Zhang Jilin also maintains a chess blog. I showed her my blog and she showed me hers. Alas it was in Chinese. So the only thing I could do was use Altavista’s Bebelfish online translator to try to understand some of her blog posts.
Here’s the translated text on her post regarding her team’s win in one of their major league tournament:
Last with the Beijing team’s decisive battle, we won! ! ! Finally has attained the league tournament
champion! ! !
champion! ! !
Last year league tournament final situation compared to this year fortunately, but because everybody too young is

Our team’s big cow, the fat tiger, Long Long and young Hou under extremely is all good Everybody very is happy,
