(RINKAI!)

Cheers!

(Episode 9: I Don't Know)
Congratulations again on winning the race!

Thank you.

Congratulations to you too
for securing 3rd place!

You were so spirited today, Midori.

In fact, I was quite anxious.

Because you have been in good shape
since the preliminaries.

Part of me hoped I might win.

But fortunately,
I also secured the third place.

The result is not bad for competing

to get into the Rookie Final.

Look at this.

I won, yet he sent me
all these things I need to improve.

After all, your father is a cyclist,

so he has higher expectations for you.

Yes, indeed.

I know my dad is a formidable player

and I am grateful
for the advice he has given me.

What about you, Nago?

Your family supports you, right?

My brothers have been caring about me.

But I hardly ever talked
to my parents about bicycle race.

Is that so? What a wealthy family!

We'll have a family dinner later.

I'll be able to have a conversation
with my parents about bicycle race.

Father! Mother!

Sachi is now the hope
of the new generation.

Her popularity and strength
are skyrocketing!

It's not us bragging,

but everyone is very focused
on Sachi's performances.

Is that so?

I'm proud of you, Sachi.

I'm flattered.

Actually,

we occasionally watch bicycle race
now when we have time.

Really?

I remember a race from a few days ago,

where the winner was a player
named Hiratsuka, right?

And the race before that too.

To be honest,

that player named Hiratsuka
is a peer to Sachi!

And shockingly,

she has won
more than 10 races as a rookie!

That is impressive.

So, what about you, Sachi?

Well…

I haven't won yet.

That's true, though.

Sachi's recent rankings
have been increasing,

so have her average race results.

Exactly!

She has reached the requirements
to participate in the Rookie Final.

That's really impressive.

No, this isn't important.

Sachi.

Isn't the most important thing

about bicycle race to win?

Your peer has won several races,

and yet, you don't aim for that?

I-I…

In the world of competition,
winning and losing are common.

But given the current circumstances,
Sachi, you're always losing, right?

Well…

Yes.

Sachi.

Draft a proposal.

-Eh?
-What?

How to win,

when to win,

and what you would do to keep winning,

put all these into a proposal to me.

But, Father…

Bicycle race isn't the same as
running a company.

No, bicycle race is also a business
that cannot be underestimated.

Sachi.

In the bicycle race,
other competitors are like rivals.

What are your advantages
compared to others?

How do you get to be
at the top in the industry?

How do you win over your own clients

to increase the share value
of Nagoya Sachi?

What is your strategy?

How much time and money does it take?

You need to develop
a clear business vision.

You will never win
if you blindly continue to play

without a clear plan.

My father was right.

Bicycle race is all about
winning and losing.

I either lose or win.

What are my advantages?

In my opinion, your advantage
is your even muscle distribution.

Exactly.

Whether leading from the front
or chasing from behind, you can do it.

Is this my advantage?

Of course.

An independent all-rounder,

you, Miss.

All-rounder.

So I don't have
any outstanding advantages?

Nagoya?

Hiratsuka.

Hiratsuka, you pointed out
my shortcomings.

BE CONFIDENT AND KEEP DOING EXERCISE
YOU'LL ACHIEVE SOMETHING SOMEDAY

Do I look like I lack confidence?

Rather than that,

it's more like you lack the awareness
to get to the front.

During the training camp,

I felt that you lacked motivation.

It may be because you are kind.

I've tried to be
more motivated since then.

But…

Nagoya, you're capable.

But to be honest,

I don't think I am going to lose to you.

The first place in the women's final
is No. 4, Hirazuka.

As the most popular player,
she does not fail everyone!

Fourth place in the final.

I have accumulated race results,

and I am slowly approaching

the requirements
to get into the Rookie Final.

But if this goes on…

BUSINESS PROPOSAL

My strengths and weaknesses…

Based on the results of self-analysis
to set up the future development path,

I'd become a regular player
in major races in the third quarter.

At this pace,

I'm one year away from being on par
with Kurume, Tachikawa and Hiratsuka.

But can I really do it?

Nago, it's you.

Yo!

Miko.

Hello.

I was on my way back from the race.

I just happened to see you here.

What a surprise.

There must be other places
for a rich person like you to go.

Like a fancy members-only cafe
or something.

Are there really such places?

Take me there once.

What's wrong?

I didn't expect you to become a drafter.

I'm quite surprised.

Although I wish I could get to the front,

I have to do it to win.

Should I find a way to race
that I'm good at?

Well…

You're already
in the top few places in the finals.

I don't think you have to do so.

However…

But

if I follow behind you now,

I should be able to surpass you.

Your technique is very well-rounded.

In terms of overall ability,
you are clearly better than me.

However,

I'm not afraid of you.

No. 2 Nagoya suddenly started speeding up.

Get to the front!

What's wrong with Sachi?

Although she had mentioned
in the interview before the race

that she would try to get to the front,

I didn't expect her
to do it in such a way.

In Group 2 of the women's preliminary round,
first place is No. 3, followed by No. 5 and No. 6.

Seventh place?

She worked so hard.

Trying to speed up won't do.

Nor is waiting in the wings.

Trying drafting next time?
Or taking the lead at the starting shot?

What should I do?

What exactly should I do?

Thank you for making this proposal
in the midst of your busy schedule.

But

if I were an investor,
I would not invest in you.

I've seen a lot of these proposals,

in which are all unrealistic
and ambiguous words.

You haven't written anything

about exactly what to do
and what your key to winning is.

To win in the race…

I have to keep practicing
and adjust my condition,

and give my all out in the official race.

That's all I can think of.

Everyone is doing these things.

Exactly.

So the key to winning is…

In fact,

some players win, while some don't.

Is it just luck?

Do you lose
because luck hasn't come your way yet?

Let me put it another way.

Sachi, what does bicycle race mean to you?

Bicycle race

is my dream.

I want to challenge myself,

putting myself in the harsh world
of winning and losing

to survive on my own.

This is my dream,

also the independence
that is mentioned in the family motto.

I don't think so.

The bicycle race is something
for those who buy your betting tickets

and spend money on you
to realize their dreams.

As a professional, you must win.

You cannot stop just because
you've realized your own dreams.

And independence

is not just about economics.

You have to show us
that you can go along alone

and reassure us.

Give it to me when you've revised it.

I see.

Sachi, you need to reassess yourself.

Think carefully about
why you want to become a cyclist.

If you can't come up with an answer
that will convince me,

then give up bicycle race and come back.

We can afford you.

I'm leaving.

You need to reassess yourself.

Think carefully about
why you became a cyclist.

Why haven't I thought about

something so important so far?

Why do I want to become a cyclist?

That's a tough question.

Maybe it's because I like bicycles.

So, for me, being able to make a living
with it is quite a happy thing.

My primary goal is
to become a professional cyclist.

But when I actually became a cyclist,

I am not that clear now.

Because it can test my setting ability.

I guess it's because I can compete
with all kinds of players.

I can eat food everywhere.

Because the track
is right there, of course!

I know it well. This is a question for me.

No one could give me an answer
even if I ask them.

To me, did I

start practicing bicycle race casually
at the invitation of a friend?

No.

Is it an excuse I made
to become independent?

No.

Does anything else mean the same to me?

No!

Then,

what exactly am I riding my bike for?

Good work.

I've uploaded the analysis
of the previous races

into the system. You should take a look.

I've always been happy

just to be in the top few.

But if I just look at the results,

all of these are races I've lost.

However,

I might discover some clues
from these data on

why I want to become a cyclist.

These materials might give me a hint.

I WAS LEFT BEHIND AT THE CRITICAL MOMENT
I hesitated

in the final moment of the race.

OVEREXERT MY LEGS
Here, I used up too much energy chasing.

I didn't give it my all.

Here, I gave up the lead.

Here, I lost on speed.

TO DISCUSS WITH MICHAEL AND PIERRE
ON WHETHER TO CHANGE TRAINING CONTENT

This race…

This is… at this time…

Reassess myself.

That's what my father told me.

But I don't understand.

I don't understand, I don't understand.

What should I do?

I want to win too.

I want to be the first
and achieve victory.

That's why I've been practicing so hard.

Even when I get tired and want to rest,
I still keep practicing.

But why?

GAVE UP THE LEAD.

Gave up?

Why would I give up?

Why would I give up my lead
when I want to win so badly?

But fortunately,
I also secured the third place.

I don't think I am going to lose to you.

I'm not afraid of you.

I don't want it. You guys can share.

It's okay. Rich people are generous.

Then…

Here you are.

Thank you.

Nago, you really are giving off
a vibe of good upbringing.

It's that innate quality
of a lady of wealth.

Is that so?

You are courteous and lacking motivation.

BUSINESS PROPOSAL

Thank you for your time today.

I have finally found the answer.

I'm all ears.

To me,

bicycle race is
where I strive to be the first.

S-Sachi?

You don't seem your usual self.

Go ahead.

Okay.

All this time, I've been trapped in
the image of the lady of wealth around me.

I've been imprisoned in this stereotype.

Although I do express my own thoughts,

I am gentle and courteous.

This is indeed me.

But I'm more than that.

The real me wants to win.

I want to be the first.

My brothers didn't take it seriously
when we were little,

but I felt upset that I always lost.

I was upset

when I failed my first bet.

At the training camp,

I was upset when I didn't make it to the finals
of the graduation commemorative game.

That's what I really think.

I have always maintained
the image of the lady of wealth,

so mistakenly think that
I will not have such feelings.

But that's not true.

I don't want to admit defeat
like anyone else.

I chose bicycle race instead of
being independent in business

because I want to win over my brothers!

My brothers have achieved
excellent results on their own.

I don't want to just chase my brothers
who are back after being independent!

But I have never won the race.

Therefore,

I am very ashamed of my performance.

I see.

So what strategy
are you going to use to win?

None.

The answer is not easy to find!

Because this is bicycle race!

I see.

Although I have no strategy,

I already know exactly what I think.

I want to win, so I will strive for it.

For the dreams of myself,

and the clients.

I'm not giving in to the race anymore.

There is no shortcut to win,

only constant hard work.

That is my answer.

Okay.

I see potential in you now.

Look forward to your future performance.

Now your stock price… No,

what are your race results now?

51.25.

I heard the requirements
for the Rookie Final

are 51 to 52.

Go for it!

Okay.

I won't hide who I really am anymore.

I must win this race.

I can't lose. I don't want to lose.

I won't give in.

I…

Who won?

-Ito?
-No. Nagoya, I think.

The final result,

1st place No. 3,
2nd place No. 2, 3rd place No. 1.

What a pity!

It's okay. It's just the beginning.

There is no shortcut to win.

I must win!

I won't lose to Izumi and Hiratsuka.

The leading players maintain their
current rankings from Bend 3 to Bend 4.

No. 4 Hiroshima overtakes
from the outside.

Oh no!

L14, you guys are so cunning!

It's always you in the previews.

Well, this time it's Shizuoka from L13.

W-Why?

I also need to get prepared, L14!

So cute.
