在周五的一檔電視節(jié)目中，新晉國際象棋世界冠軍芒努斯-卡爾森同比爾-蓋茨進行了一場國際象棋超快棋友誼賽。

Challenged to a game in a chat show hosted by well-known Norwegian television presenter Fredrik Skavlan and due to be shown in Norway, Denmark and Sweden, Microsoft founder Gates said before the game that the challenge had 'a predetermined outcome.'

Gates, 58, who was ranked by Forbes magazine this year as the world's second-richest person behind Mexico's Carlos Slim, had 2 minutes to make his moves against just 30 seconds for Carlsen. He lost to the 23-year-old in around 1 minute 20 seconds.

Asked by Skavlan under what circumstances he felt intellectually inadequate, Gates answered: 'When I play chess with him (Carlsen).'
當主持人問比爾蓋茨什么時候感到腦子不夠用時，比爾蓋茨回答說“剛剛和卡爾森下棋的時候”。

Carlsen, a grandmaster since he was 13, received non-stop television coverage in Norway when he beat defending champion Viswanathan Anand of India last November to take his first world title.
