Xinxiu
Xinxiu (新秀), which means "New Talent" or "up and coming youngster", is a Chinese Tournament for youth players, currently sponsored by Ricoh. From 1998 until 2001, a tournament under the same name was sponsored by NEC. The prizes are 30,000 yuan for the winner and 10,000 for the runner-up.
Fujian Boss Xinxiu (?)
In 2021, the "4th" Xinxiu was held, apparently the fourth edition sponsored by Fujian Boss Software Development. This "4th Fujian Boss Xinxiu" was won by Li Haotong, who beat Fu Jianheng. If the tournament was held in 2020 then the Fujian Boss version would have begun in 2018, otherwise in 2017. That doesn't mean that the Ricoh version was necessarily held in 2015, -16 or -17 though.
