Ping Pong

This show is the selected drama by NRTA

in celebration of
the 70th anniversary of the PRC,

and was funded under
the 2019 Art Creation of Hubei.

Episode 10

This is a work of fiction.
Any resemblance is purely coincidental.

Shi Chang He.

Tong Bo.

Yes.

Zhu Ge.

Ma Yi.

Here!

Wang Jin Sheng.

Here.

Liu Shi.

The few of you worked hard

as a training partner during this period.

Keep it up!

Be a training partner for
excitement, hope and future!

Come on. Let's begin.

Let's go!

Captain Shi, let me see
how much you've earned.

The captain will surely make more money.

This bunch of people

is very noisy every day.

Time to eat!

Time to eat!

It's time to eat!

Hurry up.

Come here!

Ready.

Go.

Don't rush.

Do you have Chives and Egg filling?

How many bags?

The schedule is tight. We have to hurry.

Dismiss.

Let's go.

What about me?

Why is this broken?

Mr. Fu.

Mr. Fu.

We just want to use

our time from lunch break

so...

All of you.

You have to play well

and

eat your meals as well.

Keep going.

They were even selling paddles.

This group of training partners

has made a mess out of the national team.

I know, right?

Let me tell you. I saw it myself.

That Liu Shi

was selling paddles

in front of the entrance.

That's too over.

I saw it myself.

This is too much.

It's not.

They can do anything.

Liu Shi.

I realised you lose points

in the close areas.

You are good at sustaining a rally

but you will do a mistake easily

when I use a sudden drop shot.

If your opponent discovers your weakness,

he will cycle through near and far shots.

You won't have a high-quality return.

I think that

you can pay attention
to your opponent's movements

so you can make fewer mistakes

if you can predict their shot in advance.

That's what Mr. Qin told me as well.

He told me to go forward in advance

if I predict a drop shot from my opponent.

Yes.

If you can predict the shot,

your disadvantage

will become another offensive move.
How great is that?

You sound like a coach.

You are amazing.

Did you study this all by yourself?

I like to study
something like this usually.

Every player has their own traits.

I guess this is my trait.

Try it again.

Ping-pong and Badminton Center

Liu Shi.

Have you thought about giving it a try?

The provincial team coach
never taught me this.

I have no coach.

Besides, we are leaving soon.

There might not be a chance to come back.

You are good.

It might not be the case.

Do you know why you couldn't get the ball?

You are too anxious.

You don't have to

rush over when you see the ball.

Observe the opponent's rhythm

and strike at the right timing.

This is the gap

between you and Fu Jing Chun.

Again.

♫ Light up the dark ♫

Come here. Stop for a while.

Gather around.

Hurry up.

In order to play
at the Junior Championships Selection,

the second team

will have a pep rally today.

All of you have nothing to do for today.

You can go back to rest at the dorm.

Mr. Zheng, what about tomorrow?

Your time here
as training partners are almost up.

Go back and wait for our call.

If we need your services,

we will call you back again.

Mr. Zheng.

What is the difference
between us and the second team?

Don't you think it's funny to ask me that?

The second team
is part of the national team.

They are here for war.

What we want is victory.

What do you think guarantee victories?

Systematic trainings,

discipline and execution.

Who among you thinks
you can compete with them?

We always come here earlier for training.

We are more active as well.

Yes!

Liu Shi can beat
everyone from the second team.

Why shouldn't he be allowed
to join the Junior Championships?

Liu Shi.

Do you think you are qualified
to join the Junior Championships?

Selling paddles
autographed by a world champion.

That's what all of you are doing.

Mr. Zheng. Liu Shi is doing it

for his granny.

Xu Tan.

Enough.

What's going on?

Mr. Fu.

The purpose of this training partner team

is to help the second team

get used
to playing against the special style.

I think our objective

has almost been reached.

They have no point in staying here.

Besides,

someone

among them

is taking advantage
of being in the national team.

We have to deal with it strictly.

Mr. Zheng.

The kids in this training partner team

perform well usually.

You shouldn't do that to all of them

because a couple of them
did something wrong.

They deserve another chance.

How do you plan to deal with this?

I think the training partner team
should be cancelled

and be expelled
from the national team immediately

to maintain a strict discipline.

Mr. Zheng.

I sold the paddles alone.

You can punish me however you like.

Don't involve the others.

Mr. Zheng.

I think you are right.

This won't do if it goes on.

We can't have
the training partner team anymore.

Ask them to gather around.

Gather around!

I announce.

From today onwards,

the training partner team
will be cancelled.

The members of the training partner team

will go through a selection

and some of them will stay
and join the second team

to become official players.

The condition

is to get into the top ten of the
World Junior Championship Selection.

That's all. Proceed with your training.

Mr. Fu.

Don't stand separately from now on.

It looks awkward!

World Junior Table Tennis Championships
Selection Day 1

World Junior Table Tennis Championships

has been held since 2003.

It is a very important competition

besides

the World Championships,
World Cup and Olympics.

In order to train
the players' confidence and skills

China's national team will
participate in the competition each year.

This year,

the important mission

falls into the hands

of the second team
and the training partner team.

You're here? Sit.

Have some water.

Thank you, Mr. Zheng.

You will be facing
Yu Ke Nan and Liu Shi tomorrow.

Zhai Jia Chen and Xu Nuo as well.

Forget about the others.

Just focus on the ones
who are a threat to you.

Look at Yu Ke Nan.

Even though
he didn't train a lot recently,

he still has a certain level of skills.

I understand.

Liu Shi as well.

He has been working hard in training.

But he lacks match experience after all.

I think

you just have to remember what I told you.

Don't do your old mistakes

and affect yourself.

It's a whole new system
to play a chop shot player.

Yes. I didn't face
a lot of chop shot players

in the last competition.

I'm getting used to it recently.

It's not getting used to but handling it.

You have to handle the match rhythm.

Got that?

Yes.

Granny. Have you received the money?

Yes.

How are you in Beijing?

I'm doing great.

Listen. It's pouring here.

It's getting cold.
You have to wear more layers.

Granny. Don't worry.

It's comfortable here
since there are heaters in Beijing.

That's great.

I'll hang up if there's nothing else.

I don't want to waste your money.

Why aren't you sleeping at night?

Why are you so noisy?

We have to sleep even if you don't.

I'm sorry, Brother Chuan.

I will keep it down in the future.

In the future?

You better pray
that you have a future here.

If you want
to make a call at night in the future,

you can use my handphone.

Thanks.

It's all right.

Using handphone is so convenient.

We have to face each other
in the match tomorrow.

Let's do our best.

Do our best.

Your place is so messy.

It's just like a dog kennel.

Look at Fu Jing Chun.

He is strict in training
and has strict demands for himself.

I have strict demands for myself too.

You were the one
who wanted me to play football.

I have no time to clean up.

If you are strict on yourself,

I wouldn't have
asked you to play football.

I realised that you are

really good at passing the buck.

You are just like your father.

Don't compare us both.

When your father plays,

he would always

be blaming everything
whenever he lost a game.

I've experienced it many times.

I won't blame you.

I will definitely get the spot
for the World Junior Championships.

Being confident is good,

but don't forget your promise to me.

Don't worry. I remember what I said.

I'm not like my father.

Master.

Why are you here?

It's nothing much.

I just want to talk to you.

Why don't you come in?

No. I'll be quick.

I'll tell you here and leave after that

so you can rest early.

I can see how you've been
training hard recently.

My previous results weren't good

so I...

That was in the past.

You are ranked eighth
after your match today.

This is your best result

in a competition within the team

since you joined the second team.

This means our previous targeted training

is showing its results now.

It means you understood

what was required of you as well.

Understand?

Yes. I understand.

Tomorrow is
the last day of the Selections.

Be well-prepared to face your opponent

and do your best.

You have to show your special trait.

Sure.

Don't be burdened. Never be burdened.

You've joined the second team

and is ranked eighth currently.

It makes me so happy so...

You've said this just now.

That's right.

That's what I meant.

You understand, right?

I understand.

Sure. Go back. Rest early.

Sure.

I'll be leaving.

Please walk slowly.

Go rest.

What's wrong?

Do you know what time it is?

Their match is almost finished.

Where's your match paddle?

Did you leave it somewhere?

I've searched all over my room.
I couldn't find it.

It's all right.

A good warrior can win without a weapon.

Go and do your warm-up.

Easy for you to say.

Right? This shot is...

It's fine. I think you did well.

Yu Ke Nan.

I finally get to play a match with you.

Nice.

Great serve.

Yes!

Yes!

Yu Ke Nan is losing this.

High-level Flick Smash

Yes!

Look.

He won.

Yu Ke Nan is not on form today.

It might be an opportunity for you.

Do your best!

Do your best.

If your paddle is broken,

you can't play this match anymore.

It's so strange.

There are still people who would
steal paddles in the national team.

You shouldn't blame others

when you didn't take care
of your own paddle.

Enough. Don't think about that.

Just play the match well.

I can win against him.

You can't rush

while playing a match.

Try to relax.

Like what I taught you in training.

Slow down and catch the right timing.

Good shot!

That's it.

Calm down and return every shot.

Good shot!

Slow down in front of a shot.

Strike at the right timing.

Nice!

Yu Ke Nan has seen through
the swerve of Liu Shi's flick smash.

He will always take a step back

when he returns the shot.

That's how he sees

the direction and spin
of Liu Shi's flick smash clearly.

Yu Ke Nan is strong.

The swerve and spin of a flick smash

is always changing.

Stepping back from the table

makes him see everything clearer.

Liu Shi will lose
if he doesn't change the way he plays.

Don't be anxious.

The game is not finished yet.

Do your best!

Keep it up!

Interesting.

Who are you more interested with?

Neither.

Wasn't he just predicting

a drop shot return from his opponent?

Just rush in before that.

Yes!

Yes!

If it wasn't for this stupid paddle,

I would definitely have won.

Fu Jing Chun has won his last match?

He has 36 points.

I have 32 points.

I'm out of the World Junior Championships.

Yu Ke Nan, where are you going?

Yu Ke Nan.

What are you looking at?

Be prepared for a challenge.

You even threw the rubber?

What's wrong?

You don't plan to play anymore?

I'm going to find my match paddle.

Ke Nan.

Match paddle and training paddle.

Do you think they are important to you?

The selection is over.

The result has been decided.

What you should do now

is to conclude the problems
that came from your matches.

I'll give you 20 minutes.

Think about it carefully.

Return to the training center

when you're done.

I understand.

I can understand how you feel.

You have been doing well before this.

But what you should learn now

is to face a defeat.

The first game is done.
Don't think about it.

You still have a chance
if you play the next game well.

Your problem right now

comes from your first three strokes.

Your second stroke is not smooth enough.

You are always hesitating.

What's going on with your grip?

Bring it here.

Show me your grip again.

Right now?

Grip it tight between
your thumb and your index finger.

Push it down, right?

Mr. Lei.

I think my grip is not the problem.

It's because I...

Go.

The first three strokes are important.

But a non-stop attack

will actually show one's own weakness.

He has to find
a playing style that suits him.

There shouldn't be a big problem

with my previous playing style.

Your previous style is very good.

I think

you will still win
even if you don't force yourself

to change.

Xu Tan is getting in the groove.

Liu Shi is getting anxious, however.

His play is being led by Xu Tan.

Liu Shi is trying to attack

but Xu Tan's defence is good.

It's too difficult.

Liu Shi

is getting thrown off
by Xu Tan's rhythm slowly.

Xu Tan has
totally changed his playing style now.

Both of them are not attacking

and waiting for mistakes.

This is disadvantageous for Xu Tan.

Liu Shi even has a flick smash.

It's coming.

Forehand Strong Smash

Beautiful!

Keep it up!

Xu Tan has been waiting for this.

He's capable.

You are incredible

especially in the last two games.

I said you could do it.

You gave your all, right?

I want to join the national team.

How could I not give everything?

Xu Tan, you're back?

Come here.

I bought a lot of food.
Let's eat together.

I'm not eating.

Xu Tan.

How did you beat Liu Shi?

Teach me.

I'll tell you later. I'm tired.

Do you think he will still come back?

Guan Wei is not Yu Ke Nan.

I don't think so.

Oh, right. We will

be teammates from now on.

Let's not train

for tonight.

I think you are exhausted
for the past two days.

Why don't we watch some videos?

Not today.

Mr. Lei invited me
to his house for a meal.

I'll give you the card. Go on your own.

Mr. Lei treats you nicely.

I wonder

when will I get my own personal coach.

But I think

he wasn't happy.

Why?

Didn't you play well this time?

I think he...

I think he found out

that we've been training in secret.

Besides,

I didn't play

with the skills that he wanted.

Do you mean the first three strokes?

I know the importance
of the first three strokes.

But playing it like that
is really awkward.

I want to defend first and attack later.

You are right. Defence is your strength.

Why didn't you tell Mr. Lei?

Just tell your opinions to him.

It's just that simple.

Forget it. Let's not talk about it.

Guan Wei left?

I don't think

he can get back
to the national team again after this.

What are you trying to say?

We are all friends.

Don't you care about him?

There's no point in staying
at the national team without any results.

Are we here to fool around?

I am different.

My progress halted for a year.

I have to compete with my past self
in terms of progress every day.

If I wasn't demoted to Team Shanghai,

where do you think I'll be right now?

World Junior Championships?

I would've already played
in the World Junior Championships.

Xu Tan.

I want to be the champion.

The World Champion.

But everyone
wants to be the champion here.

Even the people you looked down upon

want to be a champion too.

I'm not here to make friends.

I don't care

about other people.

Why are you
against the idea of having friends?

What can friends do?

Friends...

Friends can support you

when you are at your lowest point.

Jia Yu

was my first friend in the national team.

What happened then?

Do you know what he did to me?

Ping Pong
Little Drama

Rally.

Rally

Lei Cheng's analysis

about Xu Tan's strength

is rallies.

There are usually

three types of rallies in ping-pong.

The first type

is neutral rally.

without an active

or passive player.

It remains in a neutral state.

and looping constantly.

Looping Constantly

The second type

is passive rally.

Passive Rally

It means a player

who can only defend at a rally

against an attacking player

without attacking.

For example,

Yu Ke Nan

is attacking

while Xu Tan

is defending.

He can only

flick,

Flick

block,

Block

or lob

Lob

to defend passively.

The third type

is offensive rally.
