O Rissei
    Keywords: People

O Rissei (Wang Licheng in Chinese) is a Nihon Ki-in 9-dan professional, and in 2001, 2002 and 2003 winner of the Judan title. Other major titles he has won in the past are the Kisei, Oza, the Chunlan Cup and the LG Cup.

Born on 7th November 1958 in Taiwan, he came to Japan in 1971 at the age of 13 and turned professional the following year. He is a student of Kano Yoshinori.


Jasonred : Apparently, Gobans with his signature are worth 25 million yen? Is that so???

Considering the prize money that they get for tournaments, this is pretty massive!


Andrew Grant: Should this page really refer to O Rissei as a Japanese professional? I think that unless he has taken Japanese nationality (does anyone know?) it would be more accurate to call him a Chinese professional playing in Japan.
