Episode 17

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

You're happy?

It's Zhang Cai Wei, isn't it?

Why are you being so nosy?

I knew it all along.

She's courting you?

No.

You...

You're courting her?

I didn't know that. You...

Love has come.

Is it important who's doing the courting?

Yes.

Indeed.

Yes.

I'm not like you.

What's wrong with me?

What's wrong with you?

Looking up at the stars in the sky,

listening to the night breeze,

I miss you so much.

At this moment,

I look forward to it.

So far, yet so near.

How lucky.

In days chasing my dream,

you are the one

protecting me.

My goodness.

Why...

Why do you have it?

Take a guess.

Fatty.

Is the smell too strong?

No.

It smells quite nice.

Is this

butter hot pot?

Yes, my family sent me the paste.

Have you eaten yet?

Do you want to have some?

No need, I'm on diet.

I'm not eating it. You enjoy it.

-You mean it?
-Yes. I'm telling you.

I'll feel guilty if I eat it.
I've been on diet for days, you know.

-It smells so good. Just have some.
-Let me tell you.

I'm responsible for my words.

I said

I'm not eating it.

That's more or less what happened.

I have no idea how they got mixed up, too.

No, let me think about it.

If that's the case,

my song lyric is not sent out?

Congratulations.

You still have a chance.

Wait a minute.

Did you put anything

inside your box of chocolates?

No.

There're only chocolates.

You're not sure about it.

What did you put inside it?

There's really nothing.

Wait.

Tell me what you put inside it.

If not, I'll be misunderstood.

Well...

Well, it's

a medicine.

Painkiller.

Painkiller?

Why did you gift her that?

What's wrong with that?

Also,

did you know one of
your chocolates went missing?

How could that be possible?

What are you talking about?

You're the gifter.
But you didn't know that.

One of them went missing?

You can finish the rest.

I'm on diet. My goodness.

You're back, Xu Tan.

You're hungry, aren't you?

Liu Shi made this hot pot.

It's so delicious.

Add some vegetable.

Well,

you put on

a really great performance today.

It's very good.

Eat up.

There's some left.

I...

I need to use the toilet.

Xu Tan, you...

My pants!

Do as I say.

Come back after
the promotion and relegation.

If not, both of you will not play well.

No.

It's just a piece of chocolate.

Why is Xu Tan doing this to me?

You just stay with someone else for now.

I didn't know Xu Tan
loves chocolate so much.

He's so mad.

Why don't you text me back?

I'll play well tomorrow.
Please text me back.

Be good and go to sleep.
I'll watch you play tomorrow.

Hello. The number you
have dialed is busy now.

Please try again later.

Dad.

What are you up to?

What? You're not going to school?

Wait.

You said

you'd help me change my stream.

Teacher Zhang has been
waiting for you for three days.

Daughter.

Once

the promotion and relegation is over,

I'll be there at once.

You say that all the time.

Well, I'm caught up in it.

Can you

negotiate with Teacher Zhang?

Tell her that I agree to it.

That I firmly support you

in changing your stream
from science to art.

And she can sign on my behalf.

Once I'm done with my work,

I'll go deal with the procedure at once.

Okay?

Lei, you're my parent,

not Teacher Zhang.

Daughter, you're my beloved.

It's an important matter for both of us.

I definitely take it to heart.

Okay?

I'll be there once I'm done with it.

Cut it out already.

You must go in two days!

Hello?

Xu Tan?

It's getting late. What is it?

Well...

Well,

that box of chocolates...

I sent you the wrong ones.

I knew it.

You wouldn't put

such a weird thing inside it.

Indeed.

Who would put a painkiller

inside a box of chocolates?

Did you put some weird stuff

inside the box of chocolates meant for me?

Say it.

What did you put?

Well...

Well, I put some...

It's

some mathematics...

It's...

It's that kind of...
It's hard to describe it.

Just stop asking about it.

Fine, forget it if
you don't want to say it.

I'm hanging up. Bye-bye.

I...

Cool!

Mr. Teng.

That brat has improved.

He's okay.

Yu Ke Nan does
backhand serves beautifully.

He's been winning today.

It's quite interesting.

Do you see it?

Yu Ke Nan's backhand skills

has improved a lot recently.

He's getting very powerful.

In order to win against him,
you must figure out his weakness.

Stop praising that brat.

Here, have some water.

You play quite well today.

Be more firm when doing a backhand drive.

Don't rush. Just follow him.

Wipe your sweat.

Go for it.

Fu Jing Chun has served some nice shots.

Not bad.

Nice shot!

Go for it!

Awesome!

Master.

There are few more games to go.

But I still feel a bit tight.

I can't play as I want.

What's wrong with me?

There are only two possibilities.

It's either nature's call

or your uneasiness.

That's why you can't play at your ease.

When others are playing,

they focus on catching the ball.

Your problem is

you're lack of focus.

And I find it very strange.

You've come this far.

There's no use thinking about things.

Just play at your ease later.

Six words.

Yourself, the ball, and the heart.

You need to play spiritedly.

Right?

Yes.

What's the matter?

Xiao Jun is officially
retired from the team today.

I'm going to miss her.

Where will she go?

The provincial team.

Isn't that quite nice?

She can still play there.

Stop talking already.

You don't know how to comfort someone.

Thank you for watching my game.

You look quite handsome
when you're playing.

Will you come and watch me play tomorrow?

Tomorrow?

I have training tomorrow.

And I need to see Xiao Jun
off in the afternoon.

I might not be able to make it.

But

you need to play well.

Go for it.

Go for it.

What's wrong?

I might have made a mistake.

I've returned the letter to Xu Tan.

He played quite well yesterday.

But not today.

He might not be able
to make the first team.

Was he rejected or misunderstood?

No wonder.

It will surely affect his condition.

But I didn't mean to do that.

I...

I didn't ask the girl to reject her.

You're well-intentioned
but not very helpful.

Let's see

what we can do to make up for it.

How do I make up for it?

Play the game for him?

You're really something, Xu Tan.

Just win another game and
you'll make the first team.

It's hard.

You need to keep a low profile.

Who's your next opponent?

Ke Nan.

That's pretty hard indeed.

Everything is Possible

Hello.

It's the final day of
promotion and relegation.

What is your current rank?

It's late for you to ask that.

I'm about to get the first team uniform.

You brat.

Fine, I'm hanging up.

Unity and Discipline

Even though you'll surely
make the first team,

you still have to
play this game accordingly.

Take it seriously.

Here, go for it.

The competition starts now.

You've come this far.
There's no use thinking about things.

Six words.

Yourself, the ball, and the heart.

Awesome.

Nice shot.

Good. Nice shot.

Overall, it was

a pretty good game.

But remember what I always say to you.

Don't rush. Play slowly.

Got it?

Okay, get back to it.

Not bad.

If Xu Tan's result doesn't improve

after the promotion and relegation,

Lei will leave.

Let's see

what we can do to make up for it.

How do I make up for it?

Play the game for him?

Stop.

Both of you.

Get out.

Have you figured out what happened?

Yu Ke Nan, what do you mean?

How ungrateful you are!

I don't need your help!

You think you can do it?

I could defeat two opponents
like you three years ago!

If it hadn't been for your poor condition,

I wouldn't have helped you!

Whether I could win it or not,
that's my business.

You were humiliating me
with the way you played it!

Don't cause trouble for your master

just because you're weak!

What is this?

You're not done fighting on the arena?

So you're doing it here?

I think you've figured out

the result of promotion and relegation.

Except for Dong Yu,

Zhang Ran, Peng Shan, and Chen Ke

will be relegated
from the first to the second team.

Through this competition,

I hope you can recognise

the gap between yourselves and others.

From now on,

work hard

to get back what you lost.

Among the second team members,

Fu Jing Chun is ranked first.

He will join the first team.

Yu Ke Nan who is ranked second.

Xu Tan who is ranked fourth.
They have thrown the competition.

The coaching team
has discussed and decided

to remove their names from the ranking.

Ma Chuan and Liu Shi, who
are ranked fifth and sixth respectively,

will take their place.

I hope you can

realise your worth better

in a more competitive team.

And bring glory to the country.

Both of you.

Come with me.

You can't meddle in it.

Fu will see to it.

Come, drink with me.

But...

What?

You performed so well.

You've made the first team and
are qualified enough for a drink with me.

Let's go.

Do you still want to play?

-Yes.
-Yes.

Fine.

Then tell me the truth

as a professional player.

What went wrong

with the final game?

I let him score.

Me too.

I don't care what you were thinking

or trying to achieve.

A lack of fighting spirit

and letting the opponent score.

All this is the great disrespect
for the opponent.

It's a big taboo in ping-pong!

You are national team players.

Your disrespect for the competition

is more disappointing than losing it!

Fine, you may leave now.

We will

severely punish you.

Be mentally prepared for it.

How do you feel?

Much better.

Do you want a few days off?

No need.

You played quite well.

You kept thinking about it
when you didn't have it.

Now that you've gotten it by luck,

you feel insecure, don't you?

I really don't think

I'm a lucky person.

I've taken advantage of both of them.

If that hadn't happened,

you would be relegated and
someone else would be promoted.

Would that person think
he'd taken your place?

Indeed.

Let me tell you, Liu Shi.

Cherish your luck.

Some people live on it.

And you reject it.

But don't avoid it when it comes to you.

After all, not everyone gets to have it.

Because you work as hard as others.

You deserve this luck.

I wasn't that lucky.

All I needed was a little bit of luck.

And everything would be different.

Master.

Were you and Mr. Fu...

Let's not talk about others today.

You've made the first team.

And I'm happy.

Since we're happy, let's drink up.

Master.

I suddenly realised something.

You used to drink every day.

That means you're quite happy every day.

The promotion and relegation is over.

I'm sure you all know

who the good and
bad players are among you.

For those who were not selected,
don't make excuses.

Sum up the reason of your failure.

From today onwards, change your mindset

and train seriously.

When the next opportunity comes,

seize it.

All right, dismiss.

There are few things to
talk about in today's meeting.

First of all,

based on the competitiveness

of every coach,

as well as their trainees' results

of the promotion and relegation,

the coaching team has made a decision.

Starting from today,

Zheng Hao and Qin Zhen

will become the coaches of the first team.

Here.

Congratulations.

Even though we meet each other often,

we still have to follow the procedure.

On behalf of the first team,

I hereby welcome both of you.

Come on, Qin Zhen.

Let's work hard together.

All right, let's move on
to the next issue.

And it concerns
the solution to the incident

in which Xu Tan and Yu Ke Nan
from the second team

threw the promotion and relegation.

I would like you all

to voice out your opinions

so as to avoid

an one-sided solution.

Okay?

I would like to go first.

Throwing a competition

is indeed a serious matter.

But from my understanding
of the two players,

especially that of Xu Tan,

he just

couldn't contain

his anger.

In my opinion, we should focus on

criticising them.

We shouldn't make a big deal out of it.

Right, Mr. Lei?

Voice out your own opinion, too.

I think

everyone in the national team

should take full responsibility

for their actions.

There's no way we can allow

this situation happen

in a solemn

promotion and relegation.

If we don't deal with it seriously,

it will set a bad example

for the whole team.

Therefore, I ask for a heavy penalty.

This incident

doesn't have serious consequences.

The thing is

the winners have been promoted.

And the rest have
reflected on what they did.

I don't see the need

for not letting it go.

Am I right, Mr. Fu?

There's a reason

why Xu Tan did that.

And I'm responsible for it, too.

That means I've failed

to manage his life and training

all this time.

Thus,

whatever the solution is,

I will accept it.

Fine.

I'll consider all of your opinions.

That's all for today.

Dismiss.

How brilliant they are.

And we're way behind.

This is the glass house of the first team.

Isn't that Zhao Yang?

That's Fang Yue.

Look.

That's Mr. Qin.

Let's go.

Fu Jing Chun.

You move your feet too slowly.

Speed it up.

Lower the center of gravity.

And

pay attention to the placement of loops.

Three serves.

Start.

Team Doctor.

What happened? Did you sprain it?

Take off the shoe first.

Does it hurt here?

A bit.

I can't move.

His injury...

It's nothing serious.

Take more rest.

And it's better not to overtrain

so as to prevent another sprain.

Here, carry him.

Slowly.

Sit there and take a rest.

Slowly.

Thank you.

Let him get some rest first.

I'll go get him an ice bag.

Okay.

Doctors

make everything sound worse than it is.

Don't take everything they say seriously.

You've just joined the first team.

You get to join the qualification event
for World Ping-Pong Tournament.

It's hard to come by.

So you must seize the chance.

Can you hold on?

Ping Pong
Little Drama

Letting An Opponent Score

Letting an opponent score.

For a long time,

ping-pong is more popular in Asia,

especially East Asia.

And in other regions,

particularly North America,

South America,

or Africa,

it's far less popular
among their people.

So when the players
from different countries

and of different standards

are playing against each other,

there will be

a dominant player.

Therefore,

in order to make the opponent's defeat

look like awkward,

a player will usually

do something symbolic

to save his opponent's face,

even if the winner

is already revealed.

But when it comes to

important competitions
like promotion and relegation,

no matter what the reason is,

letting an opponent score

is a great disrespect

to the competition,

the opponent,

and oneself.

It is a heavy offense

in the national team.

Thus,

the results of Xu Tan and Yu Ke Nan

are both cancelled.

And they have the chance
to join the first team.
