1
00:00:50,716 --> 00:00:55,216
In the late 1980s,
the Chinese men's table tennis team

2
00:00:55,638 --> 00:01:00,138
was defeated in Seoul.
After suffering an 0-5 losing streak,

3
00:01:00,518 --> 00:01:05,018
sports media around the world
declared it the end of an era.

4
00:01:16,576 --> 00:01:21,076
Rome, Italy

5
00:01:35,553 --> 00:01:36,929
(TV) It's Maldini again.

6
00:01:36,929 --> 00:01:38,055
(TV) Maldini to Evani.

7
00:01:38,931 --> 00:01:40,724
(TV) Evani makes a cross.

8
00:01:40,725 --> 00:01:43,436
(TV) Van Basten! It's 2 to 1.

9
00:01:44,270 --> 00:01:45,688
(TV) Van Basten scores!

10
00:02:10,546 --> 00:02:11,922
(English) Hey, hello sir.

11
00:02:11,922 --> 00:02:13,214
(English) You have a look.

12
00:02:13,215 --> 00:02:14,424
(English) It's wonderful. It's amazing.

13
00:02:14,425 --> 00:02:15,717
(English) Have a look.

14
00:02:15,718 --> 00:02:17,803
(English) Please, have a look.

15
00:02:17,803 --> 00:02:18,804
(English) It's really good.

16
00:02:42,912 --> 00:02:44,413
God bless you, sir.

17
00:02:44,413 --> 00:02:47,082
Good sir, anything will do.

18
00:02:57,593 --> 00:02:58,594
Call the police!

19
00:03:00,179 --> 00:03:01,305
Police!

20
00:03:04,183 --> 00:03:05,309
Call the police!

21
00:03:40,052 --> 00:03:41,845
Dude, what's going on?

22
00:03:42,304 --> 00:03:43,805
I called the police.

23
00:03:43,806 --> 00:03:47,684
A kid was begging for change
on Goldfish Street.

24
00:03:47,685 --> 00:03:51,522
Then I got robbed.
The robber ran towards Cavern Alley.

25
00:03:52,898 --> 00:03:53,899
Don't move!

26
00:03:53,899 --> 00:03:55,025
Put your hands behind your back!

27
00:03:55,025 --> 00:03:56,401
I called the cops!

28
00:03:57,528 --> 00:03:58,695
I got robbed!

29
00:03:58,696 --> 00:04:02,324
Don't move! Stop resisting!

30
00:04:05,411 --> 00:04:06,912
Marco!

31
00:04:07,413 --> 00:04:11,417
Ask Luca if it's this Asian guy.

32
00:04:11,417 --> 00:04:12,918
Asians again.

33
00:04:18,215 --> 00:04:21,176
Chinese? Where do you work for a living?

34
00:04:21,552 --> 00:04:25,347
I was invited by your minister of sports.

35
00:04:25,347 --> 00:04:26,514
I am a coa--

36
00:04:26,515 --> 00:04:27,432
Hey!

37
00:04:27,725 --> 00:04:30,519
Bad idea to enter the country
without papers.

38
00:04:30,519 --> 00:04:32,771
Get your hands off me, you bastard!

39
00:04:32,772 --> 00:04:36,400
It's an expensive watch.

40
00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,403
Did you find it easy to make money in Roma?

41
00:04:43,282 --> 00:04:45,033
I would like to believe you.

42
00:04:45,534 --> 00:04:47,536
But where is your ID, Mr. VIP?

43
00:04:51,582 --> 00:04:52,416
Damn it.

44
00:04:52,416 --> 00:04:54,418
Dai is the greatest coach there ever was.

45
00:04:54,919 --> 00:04:57,922
The godfather of table tennis in Italy!

46
00:04:59,799 --> 00:05:02,051
It only took him three years

47
00:05:02,051 --> 00:05:04,553
to turn us from being the worst

48
00:05:04,553 --> 00:05:06,304
into the 7th in the world!

49
00:05:06,806 --> 00:05:08,098
Let him go!

50
00:05:08,098 --> 00:05:09,432
Get his possessions back!

51
00:05:09,433 --> 00:05:10,225
Now!

52
00:05:10,226 --> 00:05:12,269
It's 11 pm now!

53
00:05:12,269 --> 00:05:13,436
God...

54
00:05:13,437 --> 00:05:16,398
Isn't he just
a Chinese table tennis player?

55
00:05:16,398 --> 00:05:18,274
Sweden issued a set of stamps
featuring him.

56
00:05:18,275 --> 00:05:21,653
And now in Rome,
you treat him like an illegal immigrant.

57
00:05:21,654 --> 00:05:23,072
Do you want

58
00:05:23,572 --> 00:05:25,657
a phone call from the mayor himself?

59
00:05:36,085 --> 00:05:37,461
No need to sulk.

60
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:39,588
We have good news.

61
00:05:39,588 --> 00:05:43,675
The committee has decided to sign
a 5-year extension contract

62
00:05:44,301 --> 00:05:46,970
with an annual salary
of $50,000 US dollars.

63
00:05:48,097 --> 00:05:51,100
That's 50 years' worth of pay in China!

64
00:05:51,684 --> 00:05:54,645
I wanted to give this to you.

65
00:05:55,020 --> 00:05:56,312
Resignation letter?

66
00:05:58,148 --> 00:06:02,648
I can go to the press and demand
a formal apology from the stupid police.

67
00:06:04,655 --> 00:06:05,530
Dai.

68
00:06:06,323 --> 00:06:08,033
Please, anything you want.

69
00:06:09,159 --> 00:06:10,451
I've made up my mind long ago.

70
00:06:10,452 --> 00:06:14,164
It's just that tonight

71
00:06:16,166 --> 00:06:18,168
I'm particularly homesick.

72
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:22,548
Wang Ying.

73
00:06:23,173 --> 00:06:24,549
You're due next month.

74
00:06:25,342 --> 00:06:26,676
You should stay put.

75
00:06:28,971 --> 00:06:29,972
How about I go by myself?

76
00:06:32,349 --> 00:06:33,350
Or invite your mom to come here?

77
00:06:34,059 --> 00:06:35,060
How about it?

78
00:06:35,060 --> 00:06:36,186
We can ask Mi for help with the visa.

79
00:06:36,186 --> 00:06:37,187
He knows people

80
00:06:37,187 --> 00:06:38,188
who can help expedite
the application process.

81
00:06:42,693 --> 00:06:44,695
The conference in Beijing
should be done by now.

82
00:07:00,669 --> 00:07:01,836
Hello, Mr Qi.

83
00:07:02,338 --> 00:07:03,547
Still up?

84
00:07:03,547 --> 00:07:04,422
Ah, yes.

85
00:07:04,840 --> 00:07:06,550
There are finally words from above.

86
00:07:06,550 --> 00:07:07,842
You're welcomed to come back.

87
00:07:07,843 --> 00:07:10,053
But only for an assistant coach position.

88
00:07:10,054 --> 00:07:11,847
Coach Li is appointed as the head coach.

89
00:07:11,847 --> 00:07:15,433
Still we carry forward the tradition
of team work from our old national team...

90
00:07:15,434 --> 00:07:18,019
Why did you decide to leave Italy, Dai?

91
00:07:18,020 --> 00:07:19,771
You're the best neighbors I've ever had.

92
00:07:19,772 --> 00:07:20,272
Vicca.

93
00:07:21,065 --> 00:07:23,192
I believe, in two years,

94
00:07:23,192 --> 00:07:26,069
we will come back again.

95
00:07:29,073 --> 00:07:29,782
...How about it?

96
00:07:29,782 --> 00:07:31,408
Still coming back?

97
00:07:49,426 --> 00:07:51,928
Dai, the rules of the game
were not made by the Chinese.

98
00:07:51,929 --> 00:07:54,806
You are doomed to fail
if you coach in China.

99
00:08:07,444 --> 00:08:11,944
(English) The 9th agenda item of
the 38th ITTF general meeting,

100
00:08:14,076 --> 00:08:18,576
(English) regulations covering colors on
both sides of the racket must be different.

101
00:08:20,416 --> 00:08:21,667
Foul!

102
00:08:22,668 --> 00:08:25,295
The ITTF has newly adopted

103
00:08:25,295 --> 00:08:28,172
extremely strict service rules.

104
00:08:28,173 --> 00:08:29,299
Foul!

105
00:08:29,299 --> 00:08:30,091
Why!

106
00:08:31,468 --> 00:08:33,178
Under these new rules,

107
00:08:33,178 --> 00:08:35,680
the wrongful serve used by
the Chinese players will be harshly penalized.

108
00:08:37,182 --> 00:08:38,308
Foul!

109
00:08:41,145 --> 00:08:42,521
Must be refereeing mistakes.

110
00:08:42,521 --> 00:08:43,647
It's got to be their problem.

111
00:08:43,647 --> 00:08:45,148
I'll contest it.

112
00:08:47,443 --> 00:08:51,447
Another shipment of glue
to China has been cancelled.

113
00:08:52,322 --> 00:08:56,822
It is the international standard
to use qualified solvent adhesive,

114
00:08:57,453 --> 00:09:01,457
but only China is facing
glue import sanctions from the West.

115
00:09:04,293 --> 00:09:07,337
Top player Dai Min jia has retired
due to restrictions on his playing style.

116
00:09:07,963 --> 00:09:10,465
He ranked top globally by the age of 24,

117
00:09:10,466 --> 00:09:13,177
but is now destined to miss
the gold medal in men's singles.

118
00:09:14,053 --> 00:09:14,970
(English) Waldner,

119
00:09:14,970 --> 00:09:19,182
(English) the greatest player in the history
of table tennis, has come to this world event.

120
00:09:19,183 --> 00:09:21,059
He leads the Swedish team

121
00:09:21,060 --> 00:09:22,644
that consists of European Champion Persson

122
00:09:22,644 --> 00:09:24,145
and World Youth Champion Karlsson.

123
00:09:24,146 --> 00:09:26,523
It is regarded as
the strongest team in history.

124
00:09:26,523 --> 00:09:27,815
Table tennis is evolving.

125
00:09:27,816 --> 00:09:30,401
In both height and strength,
Chinese with traditional techniques

126
00:09:30,402 --> 00:09:33,405
have little advantage against Europeans.

127
00:09:33,822 --> 00:09:37,408
(English) In 1980, when I first came to China
at age of 14.

128
00:09:37,826 --> 00:09:40,703
(English) I was beaten to the ground
by the gatekeeper of a training hall.

129
00:09:41,330 --> 00:09:42,914
(English) At that time, I thought,

130
00:09:42,915 --> 00:09:44,917
(English) I will defeat
all Chinese opponents.

131
00:09:44,917 --> 00:09:45,709
Coach Xu!

132
00:09:45,709 --> 00:09:47,419
Is Chinese ping pong dead?

133
00:09:47,419 --> 00:09:48,336
After your retirement,

134
00:09:48,337 --> 00:09:50,547
will coach Li, who you recommended,
be able to handle this?

135
00:09:50,547 --> 00:09:53,675
Do Chinese players
still have a chance at beating Waldner?

136
00:09:53,675 --> 00:09:56,552
Will the Chinese team
once again reach the top of the rankings?

137
00:09:56,845 --> 00:09:59,722
Do you still believe?

138
00:10:05,687 --> 00:10:07,271
Well then, I am done!

139
00:10:07,272 --> 00:10:07,563
(Beijing, China, 1991)

140
00:10:07,564 --> 00:10:09,190
What kind of attitude is this?
(Beijing, China, 1991)

141
00:10:09,191 --> 00:10:10,066
Want to quit?
(Beijing, China, 1991)

142
00:10:10,234 --> 00:10:11,193
Coach Li!
(Beijing, China, 1991)

143
00:10:11,193 --> 00:10:11,860
Let him go.

144
00:10:12,903 --> 00:10:14,779
Losing 0 to 5 in Dortmund

145
00:10:14,780 --> 00:10:16,281
was at least losing to the Swedes.

146
00:10:16,281 --> 00:10:17,282
Losing to Waldner.

147
00:10:17,282 --> 00:10:18,700
This time in Chiba,

148
00:10:18,700 --> 00:10:20,201
you dare to lose to the Czechs.

149
00:10:20,202 --> 00:10:22,037
Have you no shame?

150
00:10:29,294 --> 00:10:31,296
Coach Li.

151
00:10:59,908 --> 00:11:00,909
Hello, Ms. Wang.

152
00:11:01,785 --> 00:11:02,660
Am I in your way?

153
00:11:12,087 --> 00:11:14,089
Preparing to revive
your Shaoxing opera career?

154
00:11:37,279 --> 00:11:38,154
Tomorrow,

155
00:11:38,155 --> 00:11:40,157
if I manage to get elected national coach,

156
00:11:41,158 --> 00:11:42,784
we won't need to endure
the conditions here anymore.

157
00:11:43,785 --> 00:11:45,828
The sports bureau will give us
a two-bedroom apartment

158
00:11:45,829 --> 00:11:46,955
with private toilet.

159
00:11:47,664 --> 00:11:49,040
The bottle on the sewing machine.

160
00:11:51,168 --> 00:11:52,169
Italian made.

161
00:11:56,965 --> 00:11:58,466
Vieri's wife sent it.

162
00:11:58,467 --> 00:11:59,468
Really?

163
00:11:59,468 --> 00:12:00,969
He said in Chiba,

164
00:12:02,054 --> 00:12:03,555
when the Chinese team lost,

165
00:12:04,056 --> 00:12:05,474
it was the happiest they've been

166
00:12:05,474 --> 00:12:07,184
in the two years since you left.

167
00:12:08,685 --> 00:12:11,312
The entire Italian ping pong community
is waiting for you to return.

168
00:12:25,327 --> 00:12:26,911
The match in Chiba,

169
00:12:27,663 --> 00:12:29,706
we lost because of Bai Minhe.

170
00:12:30,832 --> 00:12:32,166
I'm his coach.

171
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:36,421
And now coach Li has resigned.

172
00:12:37,839 --> 00:12:39,423
I'm the second in line to be blamed.

173
00:12:41,843 --> 00:12:43,427
The election tomorrow, I think,

174
00:12:44,429 --> 00:12:46,222
will most probably be only for show.

175
00:12:48,225 --> 00:12:50,060
The leadership has already decided.

176
00:13:11,206 --> 00:13:13,208
But let me try one more time.

177
00:13:14,918 --> 00:13:15,919
If I lose,

178
00:13:18,088 --> 00:13:19,589
I'll go back to Rome with you.

179
00:13:34,271 --> 00:13:36,147
On numerous occasions,

180
00:13:36,148 --> 00:13:37,774
I have dreamt of being back on top.

181
00:13:37,774 --> 00:13:40,943
I think, in the current conditions,
for our national team,

182
00:13:40,944 --> 00:13:42,570
our young players,
we face the same challenges.

183
00:13:42,779 --> 00:13:44,071
Adversity is an opportunity.

184
00:13:44,072 --> 00:13:44,906
Adversity brings out capabilities.

185
00:13:45,407 --> 00:13:46,574
The only way forward is through discipline.

186
00:13:46,950 --> 00:13:48,660
To build strength
through intense trainings.

187
00:13:48,660 --> 00:13:51,579
Make full use of our fine tradition
of collective wisdom.

188
00:13:51,580 --> 00:13:52,581
To stand out from the crowd.

189
00:13:53,165 --> 00:13:54,082
I believe,

190
00:13:54,082 --> 00:13:56,584
as long as we train
by the DDPI mantra to the letter,

191
00:13:57,085 --> 00:13:58,461
within ten years...

192
00:13:59,963 --> 00:14:01,089
within ten years!

193
00:14:01,089 --> 00:14:03,299
I will lead the team
out of these hard times,

194
00:14:03,300 --> 00:14:04,592
and bring Chinese ping pong

195
00:14:04,593 --> 00:14:05,468
back to the top of the world.

196
00:14:05,469 --> 00:14:06,303
Thank you.

197
00:14:22,152 --> 00:14:23,153
Two years.

198
00:14:23,153 --> 00:14:24,154
I don't need ten.

199
00:14:24,154 --> 00:14:25,655
And it's not a transition period.

200
00:14:25,655 --> 00:14:26,947
Faith dictates everything.

201
00:14:27,532 --> 00:14:29,951
I have faith that we will retake
the Swaythling Cup in two years.

202
00:14:30,660 --> 00:14:31,452
Thank you.

203
00:14:42,798 --> 00:14:43,673
Load of hot air!

204
00:14:44,466 --> 00:14:45,550
He didn't even manage

205
00:14:45,967 --> 00:14:47,802
to get a men's singles championship
his whole career.

206
00:14:48,678 --> 00:14:50,346
Only cares about appearances.

207
00:14:50,347 --> 00:14:50,972
Look at Bai Minhe.

208
00:14:51,681 --> 00:14:53,557
What did he achieve under him?

209
00:14:53,558 --> 00:14:55,184
I think it fits.

210
00:14:55,185 --> 00:14:57,520
A group of little brats led by a big brat.

211
00:14:57,521 --> 00:14:59,314
They'll be invincible.

212
00:15:15,414 --> 00:15:16,415
Mr. Mi.

213
00:15:16,415 --> 00:15:17,416
That Dai, what a blowhard.

214
00:15:17,416 --> 00:15:18,917
So full of it.

215
00:15:18,917 --> 00:15:20,043
Two years.

216
00:15:20,043 --> 00:15:21,669
What a joke!

217
00:15:22,546 --> 00:15:24,214
Ni was no better,

218
00:15:24,214 --> 00:15:24,923
What?

219
00:15:24,923 --> 00:15:26,674
If by training alone is enough
to win against the Europeans,

220
00:15:27,551 --> 00:15:29,219
what difference will it make,
two years or ten years?

221
00:15:29,219 --> 00:15:30,678
Surely there'd still be a difference.

222
00:15:31,179 --> 00:15:32,221
Two years.

223
00:15:32,222 --> 00:15:33,348
Such nonsense!

224
00:15:33,348 --> 00:15:34,432
The media will have a field day.

225
00:15:34,433 --> 00:15:35,559
You're worried about the media?

226
00:15:35,934 --> 00:15:37,226
Think about the leadership.

227
00:15:37,227 --> 00:15:38,561
Think about the public.

228
00:15:38,562 --> 00:15:39,688
Okay, okay.

229
00:15:41,273 --> 00:15:42,190
Ping pong,

230
00:15:42,899 --> 00:15:44,191
Table tennis,

231
00:15:44,901 --> 00:15:46,402
was invented by the British.

232
00:15:46,903 --> 00:15:48,779
Where is the British team now?

233
00:15:49,698 --> 00:15:51,700
Change is the only truth in this world.

234
00:15:52,576 --> 00:15:53,910
If you adapt to the change,

235
00:15:53,910 --> 00:15:55,036
you can help yourself up

236
00:15:55,036 --> 00:15:56,203
and survive it.

237
00:15:56,705 --> 00:15:57,706
If you don't,

238
00:15:57,706 --> 00:15:58,915
then you'll fail.

239
00:16:00,542 --> 00:16:03,711
When we can't
clearly see the goal on the horizon,

240
00:16:03,712 --> 00:16:06,923
the only thing we can be sure of

241
00:16:07,424 --> 00:16:09,300
is to avoid inaction.

242
00:16:09,301 --> 00:16:11,803
No matter how hard,

243
00:16:11,803 --> 00:16:12,804
moving forward is a must.

244
00:16:14,931 --> 00:16:16,432
If the decision I'm making today

245
00:16:17,100 --> 00:16:18,226
will be proven wrong,

246
00:16:20,061 --> 00:16:21,062
I'll take full responsibility.

247
00:16:35,285 --> 00:16:36,286
I declare

248
00:16:36,286 --> 00:16:38,288
the new coaching team.

249
00:16:39,456 --> 00:16:40,290
Team manager,

250
00:16:40,790 --> 00:16:41,791
Chang Biao.

251
00:16:42,334 --> 00:16:43,251
Coaches,

252
00:16:43,251 --> 00:16:44,460
Du Yuancheng,

253
00:16:45,170 --> 00:16:46,087
Yin Chao,

254
00:16:46,796 --> 00:16:47,671
Hu Jingting,

255
00:16:48,423 --> 00:16:49,465
Ni Xiaodong.

256
00:16:50,175 --> 00:16:51,176
Head coach,

257
00:16:52,177 --> 00:16:53,178
Dai Min jia.

258
00:17:02,020 --> 00:17:03,521
I request to be transferred
to the women's team.

259
00:17:05,023 --> 00:17:06,441
I request to work with the women's team.

260
00:17:06,942 --> 00:17:08,276
I can't stand it here.

261
00:17:13,156 --> 00:17:14,657
Calm down, Xiaodong.

262
00:17:14,658 --> 00:17:15,533
Whatever it is,

263
00:17:15,534 --> 00:17:17,035
let's discuss it later.

264
00:17:17,035 --> 00:17:18,286
Discuss it?

265
00:17:18,954 --> 00:17:19,663
Go to the women's team.

266
00:17:19,663 --> 00:17:20,664
Take the championship.

267
00:17:21,039 --> 00:17:22,540
That'd be something to brag about.

268
00:17:24,793 --> 00:17:26,294
Why would anyone waste their time here?

269
00:17:27,045 --> 00:17:28,171
Go ahead, leave.

270
00:17:30,465 --> 00:17:31,466
Xiaodong!

271
00:17:34,970 --> 00:17:36,054
Who else?

272
00:17:39,182 --> 00:17:40,808
Shut it if you want to stay.

273
00:17:40,809 --> 00:17:41,976
I only ask one thing.

274
00:17:42,561 --> 00:17:43,687
Train to death!

275
00:17:45,397 --> 00:17:46,648
One kilo, here you go.

276
00:17:47,190 --> 00:17:47,899
Thanks.

277
00:17:47,899 --> 00:17:49,817
Mr. Qi!

278
00:17:50,694 --> 00:17:51,403
Mr. Qi!

279
00:17:51,403 --> 00:17:52,695
You've got to help me

280
00:17:53,321 --> 00:17:55,197
to convince Xiaodong to come back.

281
00:17:55,198 --> 00:17:56,032
He'll listen to you.

282
00:17:56,533 --> 00:17:57,825
He'll listen to me?

283
00:17:57,826 --> 00:17:59,160
Why didn't you listen to me?

284
00:17:59,911 --> 00:18:00,912
We have agreed.

285
00:18:01,413 --> 00:18:02,705
I'll bring the news.

286
00:18:02,706 --> 00:18:03,915
You'll make sure it gets accepted.

287
00:18:04,833 --> 00:18:05,542
Now look at you.

288
00:18:05,542 --> 00:18:06,417
Forgot all about it.

289
00:18:06,418 --> 00:18:08,545
How proud were you this afternoon!

290
00:18:08,545 --> 00:18:10,171
Ruling with an iron fist!

291
00:18:10,839 --> 00:18:12,340
I can't help you.

292
00:18:13,341 --> 00:18:14,342
You be the good cop.

293
00:18:14,342 --> 00:18:15,343
I'll be the bad cop.

294
00:18:15,343 --> 00:18:16,677
You'll still end up being the good guy.

295
00:18:17,345 --> 00:18:18,929
Whether it's on paper or in practice,

296
00:18:18,930 --> 00:18:20,181
you're lacking in both aspects

297
00:18:20,181 --> 00:18:21,348
compared to Xiaodong.

298
00:18:21,349 --> 00:18:22,350
You're right.

299
00:18:22,350 --> 00:18:23,559
Now you pissed him off

300
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,020
and want me to help you get him back.

301
00:18:26,021 --> 00:18:28,189
What do I have to offer?

302
00:18:35,030 --> 00:18:36,281
What about the apartment?

303
00:18:37,907 --> 00:18:39,783
I know that his family is too big
for his current living quarters.

304
00:18:40,410 --> 00:18:42,703
I'll offer my head coach apartment to him.

305
00:18:47,208 --> 00:18:48,709
Wang Ying...

306
00:18:48,710 --> 00:18:49,794
Will she agree to that?

307
00:18:50,712 --> 00:18:51,421
Well...

308
00:18:52,047 --> 00:18:54,049
Depends on who wears
the pants in the family.

309
00:19:18,657 --> 00:19:22,285
The selection campaign
of the men's table tennis team

310
00:19:22,285 --> 00:19:26,455
has won support from teams of all provinces, the PLA team,
(National Sports Commission, Training Center)

311
00:19:26,456 --> 00:19:29,917
locomotive team, post and telecommunications team and
others. (National Sports Commission, Training Center)

312
00:19:29,918 --> 00:19:34,297
Athletes and coaches showed
rapid response and all-out backing...

313
00:19:41,596 --> 00:19:42,972
My, my.

314
00:19:43,306 --> 00:19:44,807
So this is the national team?

315
00:19:44,808 --> 00:19:45,600
Yep.

316
00:19:46,184 --> 00:19:47,101
Hou!

317
00:19:47,102 --> 00:19:47,811
Dong!

318
00:19:47,811 --> 00:19:48,520
Here!

319
00:19:50,772 --> 00:19:52,315
What's up with the men's team?

320
00:20:12,335 --> 00:20:13,669
They're just so-so.

321
00:20:14,170 --> 00:20:15,462
Not even close.

322
00:20:17,465 --> 00:20:18,549
Bai Minhe!

323
00:20:18,550 --> 00:20:19,551
Chen Wen!

324
00:20:22,470 --> 00:20:23,471
I'm going to go say hi.

325
00:20:23,471 --> 00:20:24,680
Don't!

326
00:20:24,681 --> 00:20:26,057
They don't even know who the heck you are.

327
00:20:26,057 --> 00:20:27,183
We're all going to be teammates soon.

328
00:20:27,183 --> 00:20:27,975
Not yet!

329
00:20:27,976 --> 00:20:29,560
I heard your coach
transferred to the women's team.

330
00:20:29,561 --> 00:20:31,312
Why didn't you follow him there?

331
00:20:32,313 --> 00:20:33,522
Your coach will climb the ranks.

332
00:20:33,523 --> 00:20:35,316
You'll get some scraps too.

333
00:20:46,411 --> 00:20:47,537
Chen Wen.

334
00:20:47,537 --> 00:20:49,330
You're going to need to try harder.

335
00:20:53,168 --> 00:20:55,211
(Coach's Notes)

336
00:20:58,047 --> 00:20:59,715
Bai Minhe's shoulder injury

337
00:21:00,425 --> 00:21:02,051
is really frustrating.

338
00:21:07,932 --> 00:21:08,724
Hurry up.

339
00:21:08,725 --> 00:21:10,059
People say these two youth tea
kids are very good.

340
00:21:10,059 --> 00:21:11,769
One of them is super good looking.

341
00:21:11,770 --> 00:21:12,687
No kidding!

342
00:21:12,687 --> 00:21:14,021
Hurry up!

343
00:21:14,022 --> 00:21:15,189
A real handsome boy!

344
00:21:19,778 --> 00:21:20,904
Last slot on the national team

345
00:21:20,904 --> 00:21:22,906
goes to the winner!

346
00:21:36,920 --> 00:21:38,713
Penhold, looping, plus fast attack.

347
00:21:38,713 --> 00:21:40,089
Backhand block, forehand push.

348
00:21:40,089 --> 00:21:41,715
Dong, in our national youth team,

349
00:21:41,716 --> 00:21:43,217
has some advanced techniques.

350
00:21:43,218 --> 00:21:44,052
It's just that

351
00:21:44,052 --> 00:21:45,928
none of his skills are perfect yet.

352
00:21:55,271 --> 00:21:56,897
Hou is sharp as a tack.

353
00:21:56,898 --> 00:21:58,774
Nobody can predict his serves.

354
00:21:58,775 --> 00:22:01,778
But he didn't build up solid
forehand attacks back on his regional team.

355
00:22:01,778 --> 00:22:04,405
He can't keep up after three hits.

356
00:22:04,405 --> 00:22:05,781
Directly attack when he serves.

357
00:22:05,782 --> 00:22:06,908
Go for the forehand long stroke.

358
00:22:06,908 --> 00:22:08,451
This time he's going for low throw,

359
00:22:08,451 --> 00:22:09,076
no spin.

360
00:22:18,586 --> 00:22:20,087
So handsome!

361
00:22:39,649 --> 00:22:41,442
Are you wiping sweat or showering?

362
00:22:48,449 --> 00:22:49,450
Go hard on his forehand.

363
00:23:03,047 --> 00:23:04,173
Where's Huang Zhao from Bayi?

364
00:23:04,173 --> 00:23:05,966
Huang Zhao only got
the championship in doubles.

365
00:23:05,967 --> 00:23:06,842
He's passed the retiring age

366
00:23:06,843 --> 00:23:08,052
and is planning to go abroad.

367
00:23:15,476 --> 00:23:16,894
Aren't you going to see who wins?

368
00:23:16,895 --> 00:23:18,146
Keep them both!

369
00:23:20,064 --> 00:23:22,816
(English) A champion's will to fight

370
00:23:23,568 --> 00:23:26,654
(English) A champion's will to fight

371
00:23:26,654 --> 00:23:27,821
(English) Very good.

372
00:23:28,698 --> 00:23:29,824
(English) Class is over.

373
00:23:29,824 --> 00:23:30,825
Class is over.

374
00:23:34,704 --> 00:23:35,579
Is this right?

375
00:23:35,580 --> 00:23:36,998
You got it wrong.

376
00:23:41,920 --> 00:23:43,671
(English) i-g-h-t

377
00:23:49,344 --> 00:23:50,345
Like this?

378
00:23:51,179 --> 00:23:52,847
Where's the candy you promised?

379
00:23:54,557 --> 00:23:55,349
Here.

380
00:23:56,935 --> 00:23:58,269
Preparing to go abroad?

381
00:23:59,395 --> 00:24:00,521
Decided to quit?

382
00:24:05,026 --> 00:24:06,777
Inverted rubber on both sides.

383
00:24:07,403 --> 00:24:09,405
Looping with both sides.

384
00:24:10,573 --> 00:24:11,699
Persson's style.

385
00:24:12,283 --> 00:24:13,284
Fashionable.

386
00:24:15,787 --> 00:24:16,913
Want to try me?

387
00:24:51,447 --> 00:24:53,824
Come on, Huang!

388
00:24:56,911 --> 00:24:59,121
People say you only got
your mixed doubles gold

389
00:24:59,831 --> 00:25:01,582
because it took a girl
to make up for your sloppy performance.

390
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:06,170
How many singles styles

391
00:25:08,589 --> 00:25:09,631
have you tried by now?

392
00:25:14,137 --> 00:25:15,096
The 7th!

393
00:25:16,180 --> 00:25:17,472
And the last one!

394
00:25:18,850 --> 00:25:21,102
We won, we won!

395
00:25:23,688 --> 00:25:24,980
Not bad, chubs.

396
00:25:25,481 --> 00:25:26,607
Not bad at all.

397
00:25:26,607 --> 00:25:28,025
You did put some thought into it.

398
00:25:28,026 --> 00:25:28,818
Dai!

399
00:25:29,694 --> 00:25:30,611
Dai, Dai!

400
00:25:30,611 --> 00:25:32,154
I got the tickets!

401
00:25:32,155 --> 00:25:33,698
We set off to Shanghai by 6:50!

402
00:25:33,698 --> 00:25:34,490
Hard seat tickets!

403
00:25:38,494 --> 00:25:39,828
Check in with national team tomorrow.

404
00:25:40,455 --> 00:25:41,789
What do I even do there?

405
00:25:41,789 --> 00:25:43,957
No coach would want me playing singles.

406
00:25:45,668 --> 00:25:46,627
You saying I'm not a coach?

407
00:25:49,630 --> 00:25:51,340
You gonna play or what, Huang?

408
00:25:51,340 --> 00:25:53,342
Are you gonna play?

409
00:25:53,342 --> 00:25:54,843
We're waiting!

410
00:25:56,137 --> 00:25:58,514
Who are you, Huang?

411
00:25:58,514 --> 00:25:59,973
You played like a superman!

412
00:26:01,184 --> 00:26:03,644
So this is your top recommendation?

413
00:26:03,644 --> 00:26:04,519
Left eye 0.1,

414
00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:05,521
right eye 0.09.

415
00:26:05,980 --> 00:26:07,189
We came such a long way

416
00:26:07,982 --> 00:26:09,692
for a freak like this?

417
00:26:10,693 --> 00:26:12,486
We've been waiting here since forever.

418
00:26:12,487 --> 00:26:14,322
He doesn't know me,

419
00:26:14,322 --> 00:26:16,824
but you are his coach after all.

420
00:26:16,824 --> 00:26:18,408
Well, he's a bit eccentric.

421
00:26:18,409 --> 00:26:19,535
Came from a poor family.

422
00:26:19,535 --> 00:26:21,203
His father passed away two years ago.

423
00:26:21,204 --> 00:26:22,538
The mom and two sisters are back at home.

424
00:26:22,538 --> 00:26:24,331
Nobody knows
what he's thinking all day long.

425
00:26:24,332 --> 00:26:25,499
Dai.

426
00:26:25,500 --> 00:26:26,709
If a chopper is what you're looking for,

427
00:26:26,709 --> 00:26:29,002
he's the best I've ever trained.

428
00:26:30,088 --> 00:26:31,005
Gong Feng!

429
00:26:31,005 --> 00:26:32,589
Don't you know who he is?

430
00:26:32,590 --> 00:26:33,716
I do.

431
00:26:33,716 --> 00:26:34,925
But so what?

432
00:26:35,593 --> 00:26:36,510
Sorry, Coach Du.

433
00:26:36,511 --> 00:26:37,845
Please get out of my way.

434
00:26:40,598 --> 00:26:42,016
Why didn't you report to Beijing?

435
00:26:43,017 --> 00:26:44,059
All my life

436
00:26:44,060 --> 00:26:45,394
has been devoted to playing chop.

437
00:26:45,394 --> 00:26:46,061
Other than that,

438
00:26:46,562 --> 00:26:47,854
I know nothing.

439
00:26:48,689 --> 00:26:50,190
I haven't even got a place

440
00:26:50,191 --> 00:26:51,442
in the national league.

441
00:26:51,859 --> 00:26:52,860
Why would the national team

442
00:26:52,860 --> 00:26:54,278
want anything to do with me?

443
00:26:56,072 --> 00:26:57,364
What if I put you on my main lineup?

444
00:26:58,741 --> 00:27:00,576
The Swedes don't like chop players.

445
00:27:00,576 --> 00:27:01,702
What they hate, I like.

446
00:27:01,702 --> 00:27:03,078
Put that over there.

447
00:27:04,205 --> 00:27:06,081
Don't worry about your mom.

448
00:27:06,082 --> 00:27:07,208
I'll talk to her.

449
00:27:07,208 --> 00:27:08,209
Since you were a Kid,

450
00:27:08,209 --> 00:27:10,711
your mom trusted coach Du the most.

451
00:27:10,711 --> 00:27:11,920
I don't need to tell you.

452
00:27:18,219 --> 00:27:19,094
Where are you going?

453
00:27:19,095 --> 00:27:20,763
Asking my boss for time off.

454
00:27:20,763 --> 00:27:22,097
If this doesn't pan out,

455
00:27:22,098 --> 00:27:23,390
I'll have a plan B.

456
00:27:30,106 --> 00:27:31,065
Everyone's here.

457
00:27:31,065 --> 00:27:31,815
It's time.

458
00:27:32,316 --> 00:27:33,317
One more minute.

459
00:27:41,409 --> 00:27:42,743
I'm here to observe

460
00:27:42,743 --> 00:27:45,287
the outcome of Head Coach Dai's
great selection campaign.

461
00:27:51,460 --> 00:27:53,128
What a mess.

462
00:27:53,754 --> 00:27:54,463
Too old,

463
00:27:54,463 --> 00:27:55,172
too young.

464
00:27:55,798 --> 00:27:56,590
The injured,

465
00:27:56,591 --> 00:27:57,842
the blind.

466
00:27:58,593 --> 00:28:00,803
So this is your band of misfits?

467
00:28:11,022 --> 00:28:12,440
Lv Sen, 24.

468
00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:13,441
Penhold inverted,

469
00:28:13,441 --> 00:28:13,941
squared racket.

470
00:28:14,442 --> 00:28:15,317
Dong Shuai, 16.

471
00:28:15,318 --> 00:28:16,027
Right hand shake hand grip,

472
00:28:16,027 --> 00:28:16,819
double inverted.

473
00:28:16,819 --> 00:28:18,153
Looping combined with fast attack.

474
00:28:18,946 --> 00:28:19,821
Hou Zhuoxiang.

475
00:28:19,822 --> 00:28:20,697
Right hand pen hold,

476
00:28:20,698 --> 00:28:21,824
varied techniques.

477
00:28:21,824 --> 00:28:24,284
Of the new generation
of smart fast-attackers in China,

478
00:28:24,285 --> 00:28:25,286
I'm the spearhead.

479
00:28:26,454 --> 00:28:27,329
Gong Feng,

480
00:28:27,330 --> 00:28:28,331
20

481
00:28:28,331 --> 00:28:29,457
Chop player.

482
00:28:29,457 --> 00:28:30,624
Shanghai team.

483
00:28:30,625 --> 00:28:31,626
Chen Wen, 21.

484
00:28:31,626 --> 00:28:33,544
Right hand shake hand,
fast attack with loops.

485
00:28:33,544 --> 00:28:34,294
National team.

486
00:28:35,129 --> 00:28:35,671
Huang Zhao.

487
00:28:35,671 --> 00:28:36,672
Left hand shake hand grip.

488
00:28:36,672 --> 00:28:37,839
Played both singles and doubles.

489
00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:39,007
Skipping the age now?

490
00:28:39,342 --> 00:28:40,176
29

491
00:28:41,177 --> 00:28:42,344
Bai Minhe.

492
00:28:42,345 --> 00:28:43,637
National team, 23

493
00:28:44,138 --> 00:28:45,347
Technique...

494
00:28:45,348 --> 00:28:46,849
Goes without saying.

495
00:28:48,851 --> 00:28:50,894
These misfits are all for you.

496
00:28:51,896 --> 00:28:54,023
No need to introduce the coaching team.

497
00:28:55,566 --> 00:28:57,025
Everyone knows

498
00:28:57,026 --> 00:28:57,985
how |

499
00:28:58,569 --> 00:28:59,695
boasted hard

500
00:29:01,072 --> 00:29:03,324
about taking home
the Swaythling Cup again in two years.

501
00:29:04,992 --> 00:29:06,201
Do you believe me?

502
00:29:08,037 --> 00:29:09,371
Nobody does.

503
00:29:10,039 --> 00:29:12,082
I haven't even got
a men's singles championship to my name.

504
00:29:15,044 --> 00:29:16,712
And nobody believes in any of you either.

505
00:29:17,922 --> 00:29:19,089
Just now,

506
00:29:19,882 --> 00:29:21,008
someone called you

507
00:29:21,008 --> 00:29:22,592
a band of misfits.

508
00:29:27,181 --> 00:29:28,515
But I believe,

509
00:29:29,934 --> 00:29:31,518
as long as you train hard,

510
00:29:32,770 --> 00:29:34,271
I guarantee each of you

511
00:29:35,356 --> 00:29:37,191
will have a chance
to play for your country.

512
00:29:40,444 --> 00:29:41,695
For fairness' sake,

513
00:29:41,696 --> 00:29:43,948
I will not coach players personally.

514
00:29:43,948 --> 00:29:46,075
Coach Yin will take Bai Minhe.

515
00:29:50,913 --> 00:29:52,456
Through the toughest times,

516
00:29:52,456 --> 00:29:54,082
I've always believed

517
00:29:54,083 --> 00:29:55,584
that Chinese ping pong

518
00:29:55,584 --> 00:29:57,460
will regain glory.

519
00:29:59,213 --> 00:30:01,882
Because we have
the most adequate reserve of talents,

520
00:30:02,883 --> 00:30:05,218
the best coaches in the world.

521
00:30:05,219 --> 00:30:06,887
The one and only

522
00:30:06,887 --> 00:30:08,221
Coach Ni Xiaodong.

523
00:30:08,222 --> 00:30:09,389
Welcome!

524
00:30:12,768 --> 00:30:15,645
The foundation of everything
is physical fitness.

525
00:30:17,940 --> 00:30:18,941
Take a look

526
00:30:19,442 --> 00:30:20,943
at your fitness test scores.

527
00:30:21,736 --> 00:30:24,321
The epitome of unremarkable.

528
00:30:24,322 --> 00:30:25,323
From today on,

529
00:30:25,323 --> 00:30:27,158
Coach Ni will be your boss.

530
00:30:27,158 --> 00:30:28,284
If any of you can't keep up.

531
00:30:28,284 --> 00:30:29,451
I'll blame it on him!

532
00:30:35,458 --> 00:30:36,792
Today is the first day.

533
00:30:36,792 --> 00:30:38,084
Before we play ball,

534
00:30:38,085 --> 00:30:39,169
let's start with some cardio.

535
00:30:40,171 --> 00:30:41,463
Shall we?

536
00:30:42,465 --> 00:30:43,174
Very well.

537
00:30:47,136 --> 00:30:48,095
Everyone!

538
00:30:48,596 --> 00:30:49,471
At ease!

539
00:30:51,182 --> 00:30:52,474
Attention!

540
00:30:54,185 --> 00:30:55,102
Shuttle runs.

541
00:30:55,102 --> 00:30:56,103
Give me 100 rounds!

542
00:30:56,103 --> 00:30:57,020
Get in position!

543
00:30:58,606 --> 00:31:00,149
What're you waiting for, in position!

544
00:31:04,820 --> 00:31:05,654
Go!

545
00:31:13,329 --> 00:31:14,288
Where did he go?

546
00:31:14,288 --> 00:31:15,998
How am I supposed to know?

547
00:31:17,625 --> 00:31:18,834
So I'm coaching after all.

548
00:31:19,627 --> 00:31:20,836
What's the use of him?

549
00:31:21,504 --> 00:31:22,630
Ready!

550
00:31:23,339 --> 00:31:24,506
Add 50 rounds!

551
00:31:25,633 --> 00:31:26,717
Quiet, all!

552
00:31:27,176 --> 00:31:28,343
Stay focused.

553
00:31:29,720 --> 00:31:30,721
Good.

554
00:31:31,722 --> 00:31:32,723
Good!

555
00:31:33,349 --> 00:31:35,017
The movement is top notch.

556
00:31:35,017 --> 00:31:36,351
We have been practising hard to

557
00:31:36,352 --> 00:31:38,562
consolidate skills and make breakthrough.

558
00:31:39,355 --> 00:31:40,189
Very well done.

559
00:31:40,189 --> 00:31:41,064
Mr. Mi.

560
00:31:41,690 --> 00:31:42,982
Still the same issue.

561
00:31:42,983 --> 00:31:44,192
Foreign gadget, I don't want to know.

562
00:31:44,527 --> 00:31:45,986
Video analysis system.

563
00:31:45,986 --> 00:31:46,987
All foreign teams use it.

564
00:31:47,405 --> 00:31:48,072
With video recorders--

565
00:31:48,072 --> 00:31:49,531
Cut to the point.

566
00:31:49,532 --> 00:31:50,699
20 thousand dollars.

567
00:31:54,495 --> 00:31:55,496
Whenever it's about money,

568
00:31:55,496 --> 00:31:56,914
your eyes pop out of your head.

569
00:31:57,331 --> 00:31:58,874
How poor are we?

570
00:31:58,874 --> 00:32:00,000
National team

571
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:01,584
can barely play three matches a year.

572
00:32:02,211 --> 00:32:03,003
You chose me.

573
00:32:03,003 --> 00:32:04,087
Are you going to hang me out to dry?

574
00:32:04,380 --> 00:32:05,923
Hang you out to dry!?

575
00:32:08,592 --> 00:32:10,051
Go on!

576
00:32:12,596 --> 00:32:14,222
I've had to babysit
this whole project from the beginning.

577
00:32:14,932 --> 00:32:15,724
For your glue,

578
00:32:15,724 --> 00:32:17,517
Mr. Qi and I scoured the whole country.

579
00:32:18,102 --> 00:32:20,354
The factory owner had promised.

580
00:32:20,354 --> 00:32:21,938
Said that to counter western sanctions,

581
00:32:21,939 --> 00:32:24,691
he'll make it work, sparing no cost.

582
00:32:25,067 --> 00:32:26,568
Aren't you touched, hearing this?

583
00:32:26,569 --> 00:32:27,528
I am!

584
00:32:28,070 --> 00:32:29,196
But even with the right glue,

585
00:32:29,697 --> 00:32:32,199
you'll still lose face
if we don't have the right equipment.

586
00:32:32,741 --> 00:32:33,450
20 thousand dollars.

587
00:32:33,451 --> 00:32:34,452
Enough!

588
00:32:38,581 --> 00:32:39,873
What are you looking at?
Focus on your own training.

589
00:32:39,874 --> 00:32:41,208
How dare you!

590
00:32:41,208 --> 00:32:42,083
20 thousand dollars,

591
00:32:42,084 --> 00:32:43,210
that's foreign exchange.

592
00:32:43,210 --> 00:32:44,586
Not national food coupons.

593
00:32:44,587 --> 00:32:46,088
How about you sell me for money?

594
00:32:46,088 --> 00:32:46,755
Mr. Mi.

595
00:32:47,298 --> 00:32:48,716
Meeting at 11 about platform diving.

596
00:32:50,384 --> 00:32:51,385
If you won't help me,

597
00:32:51,719 --> 00:32:53,095
I'll go platform dive with you.

598
00:32:56,098 --> 00:32:57,390
Aren't you usually so full of ideas?

599
00:32:57,391 --> 00:32:58,975
Can't you come up with something yourself?

600
00:33:00,227 --> 00:33:01,561
Me, come up with something?

601
00:33:02,146 --> 00:33:03,564
Challenge accepted.

602
00:33:16,827 --> 00:33:17,619
Mom.

603
00:33:17,953 --> 00:33:19,746
I'm not going to Australia for now.

604
00:33:19,747 --> 00:33:21,165
At least my brother's with you.

605
00:33:21,790 --> 00:33:22,582
Dad.

606
00:33:22,583 --> 00:33:24,459
You just had open heart surgery, don't...

607
00:33:25,169 --> 00:33:26,170
Xiao Shuai, Xiao Shuai!

608
00:33:26,170 --> 00:33:27,087
I know, dad.

609
00:33:27,087 --> 00:33:28,171
Two packages.

610
00:33:28,172 --> 00:33:30,174
- Thanks.
- Gifts from fan girls?

611
00:33:31,133 --> 00:33:32,134
Didn't you clean your shoes yesterday?

612
00:33:32,134 --> 00:33:33,176
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

613
00:33:33,761 --> 00:33:34,762
Huaming?

614
00:33:34,762 --> 00:33:35,471
Zhigang?

615
00:33:35,471 --> 00:33:36,597
- We are going training.
- Didn't see nothing!

616
00:33:36,597 --> 00:33:37,472
Didn't see nothing.

617
00:33:37,473 --> 00:33:39,349
Nothing, nothing.

618
00:33:40,976 --> 00:33:41,977
Gong Feng.

619
00:33:42,811 --> 00:33:43,812
Where's Bai?

620
00:33:44,688 --> 00:33:45,522
You seen Bai?

621
00:33:45,814 --> 00:33:46,439
Where is he?

622
00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:47,649
Back at headquarters.

623
00:33:50,152 --> 00:33:51,153
I'll take this, thank you.

624
00:33:51,695 --> 00:33:52,153
No way!

625
00:33:52,154 --> 00:33:53,321
My grandma sent me that.

626
00:33:53,322 --> 00:33:54,698
Didn't you eat my roast chicken?

627
00:33:54,698 --> 00:33:56,157
Did you or did you not
eat my roast chicken?

628
00:33:56,158 --> 00:33:57,617
Just bring back the jar when you're done!

629
00:33:57,618 --> 00:33:58,327
Uh huh.

630
00:34:05,459 --> 00:34:06,543
Inspection!

631
00:34:09,505 --> 00:34:10,464
Inspection!

632
00:34:12,132 --> 00:34:13,716
Knew it was you.

633
00:34:14,009 --> 00:34:14,968
Close the door!

634
00:34:15,553 --> 00:34:17,054
Do it quick! Close the door!

635
00:34:19,181 --> 00:34:19,973
Let's go.

636
00:34:20,558 --> 00:34:21,559
All good?

637
00:34:21,559 --> 00:34:22,351
All good.

638
00:34:41,495 --> 00:34:43,205
Careful.

639
00:34:50,421 --> 00:34:52,214
Let's go!

640
00:34:55,426 --> 00:34:56,343
Where are we going?

641
00:34:56,719 --> 00:34:57,428
Disco, disco!

642
00:34:57,428 --> 00:34:59,054
The one in Longtanhu?

643
00:35:06,770 --> 00:35:07,937
Chill.

644
00:35:14,945 --> 00:35:16,196
Coach Dai!

645
00:35:31,045 --> 00:35:32,212
Dai...Coach Dai.

646
00:36:23,138 --> 00:36:24,305
Are you okay, Dai?

647
00:36:37,820 --> 00:36:39,947
Can't even hide it somewhere original.

648
00:36:39,947 --> 00:36:41,448
I came up with this.

649
00:36:41,448 --> 00:36:42,490
Alright now.

650
00:36:43,659 --> 00:36:44,826
Who has the guts to own up?

651
00:36:58,966 --> 00:36:59,967
It's mine.

652
00:37:20,696 --> 00:37:21,905
You sit too much.

653
00:37:22,656 --> 00:37:24,532
Don't you want your back to heal?

654
00:37:24,533 --> 00:37:25,408
Let's go home.

655
00:37:27,327 --> 00:37:28,703
They're so ungrateful.

656
00:37:29,163 --> 00:37:30,330
What a bunch of brats.

657
00:37:30,831 --> 00:37:32,165
You spend more time with them

658
00:37:32,166 --> 00:37:33,542
than with your own son.

659
00:37:33,917 --> 00:37:35,710
You don't know what you're talking about.

660
00:37:36,003 --> 00:37:36,837
Okay?

661
00:37:38,046 --> 00:37:39,213
Your son

662
00:37:39,214 --> 00:37:40,840
can't even talk at this age.

663
00:37:55,773 --> 00:37:56,398
Hold on.

664
00:37:56,398 --> 00:37:58,400
The lens is all fogged up.

665
00:37:58,400 --> 00:37:59,734
This damn weather.

666
00:37:59,735 --> 00:38:01,194
Still snowing in March.

667
00:38:01,779 --> 00:38:02,446
Well, so.

668
00:38:02,780 --> 00:38:04,031
What's up with you?

669
00:38:04,698 --> 00:38:05,907
Can't smile?

670
00:38:08,076 --> 00:38:09,202
Coach Chen,

671
00:38:09,578 --> 00:38:12,080
don't we have anyone famous
in the figure skating team?

672
00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,959
This one was chosen by Coach Yao
from over a hundred candidates.

673
00:38:15,959 --> 00:38:16,876
To be paired up with Hong Bo.

674
00:38:17,211 --> 00:38:18,462
She has potential.

675
00:38:18,921 --> 00:38:20,714
Xiao Xue, tell Mr. Journalist

676
00:38:20,714 --> 00:38:22,048
what's on your mind.

677
00:38:22,049 --> 00:38:23,759
I want to be

678
00:38:23,759 --> 00:38:25,927
the first figure skating champion in China.

679
00:38:25,928 --> 00:38:26,803
Look at this kid.

680
00:38:26,804 --> 00:38:27,888
Such pride.

681
00:38:29,223 --> 00:38:30,891
Okay then, you stand close to her.

682
00:38:31,892 --> 00:38:33,435
Show us that coach-athlete bond.

683
00:38:36,146 --> 00:38:37,272
Smile.

684
00:38:42,444 --> 00:38:44,070
Without me,

685
00:38:44,071 --> 00:38:45,655
how are you going to beat the Europeans?

686
00:38:47,616 --> 00:38:49,284
Coach,

687
00:38:49,284 --> 00:38:51,077
I can't believe you're doing this to me.

688
00:38:52,162 --> 00:38:53,663
I can't either.

689
00:39:00,963 --> 00:39:02,798
Back to the Tianjin team?

690
00:39:02,798 --> 00:39:03,423
Yeah.

691
00:39:16,937 --> 00:39:17,646
Coach Dai,

692
00:39:17,646 --> 00:39:18,772
don't you remember me?

693
00:39:19,439 --> 00:39:21,691
I'm an old friend of ping pong.

694
00:39:21,692 --> 00:39:24,319
Chief commentator at the Sports Times.

695
00:39:24,319 --> 00:39:25,445
Xia Youde.

696
00:39:36,707 --> 00:39:37,541
You!

697
00:39:43,547 --> 00:39:45,507
Is that Dai Min jia?

698
00:39:45,507 --> 00:39:46,841
Let me see.

699
00:39:46,842 --> 00:39:48,051
It is!

700
00:39:48,051 --> 00:39:50,178
TV says he is involved in some scandal.

701
00:39:50,178 --> 00:39:51,846
Lower your voice.

702
00:39:51,847 --> 00:39:54,182
I spot him a lot in the
Sports Commission Community across the street.

703
00:40:00,397 --> 00:40:02,190
Attack right after serve

704
00:40:02,858 --> 00:40:04,401
and leave yourself no way to back out.

705
00:40:05,152 --> 00:40:06,528
Only you would do something like that.

706
00:40:08,322 --> 00:40:09,698
Anyway...

707
00:40:09,698 --> 00:40:10,532
Today,

708
00:40:10,532 --> 00:40:11,407
I submitted to the bureau

709
00:40:12,326 --> 00:40:14,411
an eight-thousand-word self-criticism.

710
00:40:14,411 --> 00:40:16,037
Let's put this behind us.

711
00:40:17,831 --> 00:40:20,333
Those who put in the work
will always get criticized.

712
00:40:20,834 --> 00:40:22,335
That's just how it is.

713
00:40:24,546 --> 00:40:26,589
How long has ping pong
been kept out of the headlines?

714
00:40:29,551 --> 00:40:30,510
Good.

715
00:40:34,556 --> 00:40:36,057
As long as we're in the spotlight,

716
00:40:38,518 --> 00:40:40,520
more resources will become available.

717
00:40:42,439 --> 00:40:44,399
Anyway, I'm one to talk.

718
00:40:45,567 --> 00:40:46,859
How long have you been

719
00:40:46,860 --> 00:40:48,528
applying for a new training hall?

720
00:40:49,071 --> 00:40:50,739
Didn't it get approved last week?

721
00:40:52,074 --> 00:40:53,867
If I don't achieve anything
in these two years,

722
00:40:53,867 --> 00:40:54,868
feel free to single me out.

723
00:40:54,868 --> 00:40:55,535
Blame everything on me

724
00:40:55,953 --> 00:40:57,412
and switch me out for anyone.

725
00:41:00,958 --> 00:41:03,085
As long as
the ping pong community is revived,

726
00:41:04,211 --> 00:41:05,962
no one is too precious to sacrifice.

727
00:41:38,286 --> 00:41:40,288
Slack off during training

728
00:41:40,288 --> 00:41:42,415
and they'll eat you alive in the match.

729
00:42:02,185 --> 00:42:03,436
Keep breathing!

730
00:42:08,442 --> 00:42:09,526
50 shuttle runs next?

731
00:42:09,526 --> 00:42:10,276
Okay.

732
00:42:34,801 --> 00:42:36,177
Bai isn't giving himself any breaks.

733
00:42:36,178 --> 00:42:38,471
I bet he'll go back
to the national team soon.

734
00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:46,521
One!

735
00:42:48,398 --> 00:42:49,315
Two!

736
00:42:51,401 --> 00:42:52,318
One!

737
00:42:53,904 --> 00:42:54,404
Two!

738
00:43:17,219 --> 00:43:18,428
Keep it up!

739
00:43:21,556 --> 00:43:23,849
Check out how the women's team is training.

740
00:43:25,560 --> 00:43:26,519
Keep going.

741
00:43:30,398 --> 00:43:31,273
Faster!

742
00:43:34,903 --> 00:43:36,029
Stop stop!

743
00:43:37,531 --> 00:43:38,907
What's up with all the silence?

744
00:43:39,908 --> 00:43:41,576
Who's going to make some noise?

745
00:43:53,296 --> 00:43:55,423
Can't keep it up, Zhigang?

746
00:43:55,423 --> 00:43:57,091
Want the girls' team to spoon-feed you?

747
00:43:57,092 --> 00:43:57,717
Huaming.

748
00:43:57,717 --> 00:43:58,551
Feed me, feed me!

749
00:43:58,552 --> 00:44:00,303
Ming, Ming! Feed me!

750
00:44:02,430 --> 00:44:03,305
We have training later.

751
00:44:13,775 --> 00:44:14,650
Can't lift your legs?

752
00:44:14,651 --> 00:44:15,401
Should I give you a ride?

753
00:44:36,965 --> 00:44:38,967
Tiny racket vs. huge wok!

754
00:44:40,594 --> 00:44:41,803
What a cartwheel flip!

755
00:44:41,803 --> 00:44:43,262
Worthy of the national team!

756
00:44:44,181 --> 00:44:46,850
On behalf of our players,

757
00:44:46,850 --> 00:44:48,434
a toast to the sponsors.

758
00:44:49,477 --> 00:44:50,769
May your pockets be full.

759
00:44:50,770 --> 00:44:52,021
I'll empty my cup.

760
00:44:52,022 --> 00:44:52,522
Come.

761
00:44:52,522 --> 00:44:53,523
Great.

762
00:44:54,774 --> 00:44:55,524
Cheers!

763
00:44:59,529 --> 00:45:00,947
Cartwheel?

764
00:45:01,531 --> 00:45:02,657
Are you trained monkeys?

765
00:45:03,783 --> 00:45:04,658
Who was it?

766
00:45:05,452 --> 00:45:06,953
Do it again in front of me!

767
00:45:10,540 --> 00:45:11,457
Dai!

768
00:45:15,045 --> 00:45:16,671
The equipment is here, Mi.

769
00:45:16,671 --> 00:45:17,838
Come, here.

770
00:45:19,299 --> 00:45:20,174
20 thousand dollar just for this?

771
00:45:20,175 --> 00:45:21,301
You have no idea about it.

772
00:45:21,301 --> 00:45:22,844
The most advanced training analytics system.

773
00:45:22,844 --> 00:45:23,803
This is widely used abroad!

774
00:45:23,803 --> 00:45:24,845
Is it working?

775
00:45:24,846 --> 00:45:25,805
It's up!

776
00:45:26,473 --> 00:45:27,974
He's stepped too far back
from the table, see?

777
00:45:27,974 --> 00:45:29,558
Roll back, roll it back.

778
00:45:29,559 --> 00:45:31,060
If he can't help it,

779
00:45:31,061 --> 00:45:32,395
put a barrier behind him next time.

780
00:45:32,395 --> 00:45:34,021
Coach.

781
00:45:38,526 --> 00:45:39,818
You called for me, coach?

782
00:45:39,819 --> 00:45:40,903
Wen.

783
00:45:40,904 --> 00:45:42,030
You're good at looping.

784
00:45:42,030 --> 00:45:43,823
From tomorrow on,
you'll play loops against Gong Feng.

785
00:45:44,032 --> 00:45:45,033
Adjust your style

786
00:45:45,033 --> 00:45:46,034
exactly into Karlsson's style.

787
00:45:54,042 --> 00:45:55,543
Gong Feng, all you do is chop!

788
00:45:55,543 --> 00:45:56,669
Once you manage to chop and attack,
you'll be top dog.

789
00:45:56,670 --> 00:45:57,837
Once you manage to chop and attack,
you'll be top dog.

790
00:45:57,837 --> 00:45:58,671
Attack!

791
00:46:00,048 --> 00:46:01,340
Loops have strong topspin.

792
00:46:01,341 --> 00:46:02,925
So, use the forehand past attack.

793
00:46:02,926 --> 00:46:04,052
Fight fire with fire!

794
00:46:04,052 --> 00:46:04,844
Don't step back!

795
00:46:04,844 --> 00:46:05,928
Stay glued to that table!

796
00:46:06,429 --> 00:46:06,929
Dong Shuai,

797
00:46:06,930 --> 00:46:08,181
your pacing is exquisite!

798
00:46:08,181 --> 00:46:09,932
You can take on any European player.

799
00:46:09,933 --> 00:46:11,684
Swing speed, Dong Shuai!

800
00:46:12,185 --> 00:46:14,562
The biggest weakness
of pen hold grip is backhand,

801
00:46:14,562 --> 00:46:16,689
So you should be aggressive
with your pen hold backhand hit.

802
00:46:18,275 --> 00:46:19,067
Sal

803
00:46:19,401 --> 00:46:20,026
Sal

804
00:46:20,902 --> 00:46:21,903
Sal

805
00:46:28,201 --> 00:46:30,578
This is the first test
for the coaching crew.

806
00:46:31,705 --> 00:46:32,580
The most important match

807
00:46:32,580 --> 00:46:33,706
before the world table tennis
championships.

808
00:46:34,207 --> 00:46:34,790
One option

809
00:46:34,791 --> 00:46:36,417
is the French Open.

810
00:46:37,294 --> 00:46:39,296
The Swedish team will be competing.

811
00:46:39,921 --> 00:46:42,423
Waldner, Persson, Karlsson, all in.

812
00:46:43,800 --> 00:46:44,717
The other

813
00:46:44,718 --> 00:46:46,553
is the Korea Open.

814
00:46:47,220 --> 00:46:48,304
We'll go to Korea.

815
00:46:52,058 --> 00:46:53,809
Afraid of the Swedes?

816
00:46:55,562 --> 00:46:56,437
I just want to win.

817
00:47:06,614 --> 00:47:08,907
(Holiday Notice)

818
00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:11,286
What?

819
00:47:15,165 --> 00:47:16,082
Mrs. Dai.

820
00:47:19,294 --> 00:47:20,795
At 3:40 this afternoon,

821
00:47:20,795 --> 00:47:22,087
they will set off for Korea.

822
00:47:23,465 --> 00:47:24,799
I searched through the apartment

823
00:47:25,467 --> 00:47:27,177
and found this treasure
in your coach's belongings.

824
00:47:29,095 --> 00:47:30,805
You should be able to use it.

825
00:47:43,026 --> 00:47:43,776
Sir.

826
00:47:43,777 --> 00:47:45,153
Driver sir.

827
00:47:45,153 --> 00:47:46,821
Will you open the door please?

828
00:47:50,533 --> 00:47:53,536
Excuse me.

829
00:47:55,955 --> 00:47:56,789
Excuse me.

830
00:48:15,058 --> 00:48:16,684
Hurry, hurry up!

831
00:48:25,527 --> 00:48:26,694
Bai Minhe!

832
00:48:29,030 --> 00:48:31,198
I've seen you on TV!

833
00:48:31,908 --> 00:48:33,701
Going back to the Bureau?

834
00:48:39,833 --> 00:48:40,667
Take it.

835
00:48:41,918 --> 00:48:42,919
Take it.

836
00:48:48,425 --> 00:48:49,551
How should I return it?

837
00:48:50,552 --> 00:48:51,928
Across the street from the training center,
Ritan hotel.

838
00:48:51,928 --> 00:48:52,678
Li Fan.

839
00:48:54,431 --> 00:48:55,223
Okay.

840
00:48:57,058 --> 00:48:58,059
Break a leg!

841
00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:00,019
Knock 'em dead!

842
00:49:08,570 --> 00:49:09,696
Occupied.

843
00:49:11,030 --> 00:49:12,281
What, what?

844
00:49:14,200 --> 00:49:15,409
Oh, coach.

845
00:49:16,786 --> 00:49:17,787
Time to go, sir.

846
00:49:27,046 --> 00:49:27,921
Bai!

847
00:49:28,298 --> 00:49:29,716
My self-criticism.

848
00:49:30,717 --> 00:49:31,926
I was wrong.

849
00:49:32,927 --> 00:49:35,095
My heart, is burning.

850
00:49:35,805 --> 00:49:37,932
My blood, is boiling.

851
00:49:37,932 --> 00:49:38,557
Can't hear you!

852
00:49:38,558 --> 00:49:39,725
Louder!

853
00:49:39,726 --> 00:49:42,145
My head, is tumbling.

854
00:49:42,937 --> 00:49:44,772
I'm ashamed

855
00:49:44,772 --> 00:49:46,064
by my own doing.

856
00:49:46,065 --> 00:49:48,275
Great!

857
00:49:48,276 --> 00:49:49,944
I know it's already too late,

858
00:49:49,944 --> 00:49:51,654
but I still hope the team

859
00:49:52,655 --> 00:49:53,656
will give me

860
00:49:53,656 --> 00:49:55,658
just one more chance.

861
00:49:56,284 --> 00:49:57,285
I——

862
00:49:57,952 --> 00:49:59,286
I will--

863
00:50:05,293 --> 00:50:06,669
No cheat sheets!

864
00:50:09,297 --> 00:50:10,172
I will never

865
00:50:10,924 --> 00:50:13,968
make such a stupid mistake again!

866
00:50:14,594 --> 00:50:15,970
Sincerely,

867
00:50:15,970 --> 00:50:17,304
Bai Minhe.

868
00:50:17,305 --> 00:50:19,307
Yes!

869
00:50:20,600 --> 00:50:22,310
What the heck was that?

870
00:50:22,977 --> 00:50:25,020
Why did that sound familiar?

871
00:50:32,529 --> 00:50:34,155
Not letting Gong Feng along

872
00:50:34,531 --> 00:50:36,157
is weighing on him, I guess?

873
00:50:37,033 --> 00:50:38,826
He only has eyes for Gothenburg.

874
00:50:38,826 --> 00:50:40,536
Nothing else.

875
00:50:42,956 --> 00:50:47,456
GO KO-RE-A!

876
00:50:47,669 --> 00:50:51,631
(South Korean Invitational, 12 months away
from Gothenburg Championship Match)

877
00:50:52,048 --> 00:50:55,051
GO KO-RE-A!

878
00:50:58,846 --> 00:51:00,848
This team's first overseas appearance.

879
00:51:00,848 --> 00:51:03,976
The first up is surprisingly, Huang Zhao.

880
00:51:04,561 --> 00:51:09,061
A player who's never had any
remarkable performance in single matches.

881
00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:12,902
He's facing the renowned "Scud",

882
00:51:12,902 --> 00:51:16,697
the Korean God of War, Yoo Namkyu!

883
00:51:17,407 --> 00:51:18,324
Don't step back!

884
00:51:18,825 --> 00:51:20,034
Zhao, don't step back!

885
00:51:26,040 --> 00:51:27,207
Nice shot!

886
00:51:27,208 --> 00:51:30,836
When the God of War started to perform
his full-court sprinting stunt,

887
00:51:30,837 --> 00:51:33,840
his glory was like the shining sun.

888
00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:38,340
The first men's singles gold medal winner
in the '88 Olympic Games in Seoul.

889
00:51:39,846 --> 00:51:43,057
The great Yoo Namkyu from Busan.

890
00:51:44,225 --> 00:51:48,062
The Chinese team entered
the semi-finals thanks to good luck.

891
00:51:48,062 --> 00:51:49,688
But sorry! This is Busan.

892
00:51:50,565 --> 00:51:54,902
The Koreans are the real masters of Asia.

893
00:51:55,695 --> 00:51:56,404
Right!

894
00:51:56,404 --> 00:51:58,906
GO KO-RE-A!

895
00:51:59,407 --> 00:52:03,907
Next up is the 20 year old young genius,
Lee Chulsung.

896
00:52:16,924 --> 00:52:18,050
Nice!

897
00:52:27,810 --> 00:52:28,936
Give me his profile.

898
00:52:30,772 --> 00:52:31,939
Dong Shuai?

899
00:52:32,649 --> 00:52:34,275
Have you heard of this name?

900
00:52:48,081 --> 00:52:49,165
Loop drive?

901
00:52:51,167 --> 00:52:53,460
He's hitting the white line
with every single stroke!

902
00:52:56,172 --> 00:52:57,965
European technique!

903
00:52:57,965 --> 00:52:59,591
Only 16!

904
00:53:06,808 --> 00:53:08,476
Why was the return of serve so weak?

905
00:53:08,476 --> 00:53:09,602
Dong Shuai!

906
00:53:09,602 --> 00:53:10,936
Sign my racket!

907
00:53:10,937 --> 00:53:11,938
Please, no.

908
00:53:11,938 --> 00:53:13,439
Please leave the court!

909
00:53:13,439 --> 00:53:14,940
Please sign my racket!

910
00:53:15,942 --> 00:53:17,944
Please sign it!

911
00:53:20,446 --> 00:53:23,532
Korea! Victory!

912
00:53:23,533 --> 00:53:26,953
The world's greatest pen hold player,
Kim Taeksoo.

913
00:53:26,953 --> 00:53:31,453
The only worthwhile opponent against
the European shake hand loop technique.

914
00:53:43,052 --> 00:53:46,847
Gap at the backhand! Good hit!

915
00:53:47,974 --> 00:53:49,976
Although Bai Minhe is a worthy opponent,

916
00:53:49,976 --> 00:53:54,313
his right shoulder injury
compromises his stamina.

917
00:54:07,410 --> 00:54:09,328
(English) Please go back to the court.

918
00:54:10,037 --> 00:54:11,413
(English) Sorry.

919
00:54:12,415 --> 00:54:13,416
(English) Sorry.

920
00:54:13,916 --> 00:54:15,208
(English) He did it, too.

921
00:54:17,044 --> 00:54:17,919
(English) Please.

922
00:54:17,920 --> 00:54:19,546
(English) Please get back to the seat.

923
00:54:19,922 --> 00:54:21,423
(English) Please get back to the seat.

924
00:54:32,185 --> 00:54:33,519
What a rare scene.

925
00:54:33,519 --> 00:54:37,773
The Chinese coaching team is infamous
for collective wisdom and psychological tactics.

926
00:54:37,774 --> 00:54:39,901
But to win a match takes actual skills.

927
00:55:08,930 --> 00:55:11,724
That Chinese luck!
It's like they're winning the lottery.

928
00:55:11,933 --> 00:55:13,434
Beautiful!

929
00:55:13,434 --> 00:55:16,437
In the finals, they will face Saive,
the King of Europe,

930
00:55:16,437 --> 00:55:18,063
and his Belgian team.

931
00:55:18,064 --> 00:55:19,648
See you after the commercials.

932
00:55:20,942 --> 00:55:22,151
(English) The game's about to begin.

933
00:55:22,151 --> 00:55:24,653
(English) We must turn in
your list of players now!

934
00:55:25,571 --> 00:55:27,447
Saive has got to be number one,
playing the second and fourth rounds.

935
00:55:27,448 --> 00:55:28,574
Then Huang Zhao goes second.

936
00:55:28,574 --> 00:55:29,950
Huang Zhao second?
That would be serving it to Saive on a silver platter.

937
00:55:29,951 --> 00:55:31,577
Bai will have to play first.

938
00:55:31,577 --> 00:55:33,579
To beat Podpinka in the first round,
then face off with Saive in the fourth.

939
00:55:33,579 --> 00:55:34,580
But if he doesn't manage,

940
00:55:34,580 --> 00:55:36,582
Huang Zhao will have to challenge
Podpinka in the fifth round.

941
00:55:36,582 --> 00:55:38,292
At least we have a chance there.

942
00:55:38,292 --> 00:55:40,460
As long as we win 3 of the 5 sets.

943
00:55:43,673 --> 00:55:45,466
Can you beat Podpinka?

944
00:55:45,466 --> 00:55:46,300
I'll annihilate him.

945
00:55:47,093 --> 00:55:48,302
See, Huang Zhao?

946
00:55:48,302 --> 00:55:49,177
He's the one under pressure.

947
00:55:49,804 --> 00:55:50,596
You're number one.

948
00:55:53,307 --> 00:55:55,100
(English) The match is about to start!

949
00:55:55,101 --> 00:55:57,144
(English) Everybody is waiting for you!

950
00:55:57,144 --> 00:55:58,520
What about round three?

951
00:55:58,521 --> 00:56:00,314
In case we go one-one
in the first two rounds,

952
00:56:00,314 --> 00:56:01,523
we'll have to win the third round.

953
00:56:03,526 --> 00:56:06,529
(English) If you guys don't turn in your list now,
you'll abstain from the game!

954
00:56:06,529 --> 00:56:07,321
(English) Come on!

955
00:56:08,531 --> 00:56:11,033
(English) China, player one,

956
00:56:11,033 --> 00:56:12,659
(English) Huang Zhao.

957
00:56:13,327 --> 00:56:14,661
(English) Player two,

958
00:56:14,662 --> 00:56:17,289
(English) Bai Minhe.

959
00:56:17,290 --> 00:56:19,458
(English) Player three,

960
00:56:19,458 --> 00:56:21,293
(English) Hou Zhuoxiang.

961
00:56:21,294 --> 00:56:22,670
Hand me his profile now!

962
00:56:23,546 --> 00:56:26,048
Another 16-year-old!

963
00:56:26,048 --> 00:56:27,174
My God!

964
00:56:27,174 --> 00:56:29,342
Another fresh-faced young player.

965
00:56:34,348 --> 00:56:37,059
Huang Zhao facing
European top player Podpinka,

966
00:56:37,059 --> 00:56:39,811
trained under his
Chinese coach Wang Dayong,

967
00:56:39,812 --> 00:56:43,690
Podpinka's technique
is both refined and aggressive.

968
00:56:47,904 --> 00:56:49,906
There's that European offensive style!

969
00:56:49,906 --> 00:56:54,327
Huang Zhao is about to
lose his will to defend.

970
00:56:54,660 --> 00:56:57,412
The Chinese team's risky tactics
have come back to bite them.

971
00:56:59,415 --> 00:57:01,708
Third round,

972
00:57:01,709 --> 00:57:05,212
Podpinka is in
absolute control of the game.

973
00:57:06,213 --> 00:57:08,548
Huang Zhao is barely holding up.

974
00:57:11,552 --> 00:57:14,179
Surprisingly,
the Chinese coaches don't look worried.

975
00:57:18,059 --> 00:57:18,934
Podpinka's service.

976
00:57:18,935 --> 00:57:19,936
Forehand push.

977
00:57:19,936 --> 00:57:21,395
Returns with backhand.

978
00:57:21,395 --> 00:57:22,396
Straight stroke.

979
00:57:22,396 --> 00:57:23,897
Huang Zhao, forehand stroke.

980
00:57:23,898 --> 00:57:25,274
Strikes again. Again! Again!

981
00:57:25,274 --> 00:57:26,191
Strikes again. Again! Again!

982
00:57:26,901 --> 00:57:29,778
And Podpinka's lost it.

983
00:57:29,779 --> 00:57:33,073
Huang Zhao is winnng back,
and got the set point.

984
00:57:33,074 --> 00:57:34,575
Can he overcome himself this time?

985
00:57:40,289 --> 00:57:41,581
Sal

986
00:57:48,923 --> 00:57:52,301
Second round, Bai Minhe vs. Saive.

987
00:58:01,936 --> 00:58:03,771
Saive is a real beast.

988
00:58:03,771 --> 00:58:06,273
The Chinese can never
defend themselves against European power.

989
00:58:06,649 --> 00:58:08,567
Saive is invincible!

990
00:58:09,652 --> 00:58:10,277
It wasn't me!

991
00:58:10,277 --> 00:58:10,902
It's the racket!

992
00:58:10,903 --> 00:58:11,945
The racket's soft!

993
00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:14,072
(Glue)

994
00:58:14,073 --> 00:58:17,451
The pressure now comes to
Hou for the third set.

995
00:58:17,451 --> 00:58:19,661
Can he, a 16-year-old, handle it?

996
00:58:23,290 --> 00:58:24,791
Did you see that movement?

997
00:58:24,792 --> 00:58:26,668
Foul!

998
00:58:26,669 --> 00:58:28,087
(English) Violation!

999
00:58:28,587 --> 00:58:29,963
(English) What do you think?

1000
00:58:29,964 --> 00:58:31,090
(English) Good stroke.

1001
00:58:31,090 --> 00:58:32,299
(English) Score counts.

1002
00:58:32,591 --> 00:58:33,592
(English) Okay.

1003
00:58:34,468 --> 00:58:35,594
(English) Let's see the playback.
(French Open, Residence Hotel)

1004
00:58:35,928 --> 00:58:40,428
(English) Hou repeatedly imitated shake hand grip
with his pen hold grip to do backhand strikes.

1005
00:58:41,100 --> 00:58:43,936
(English) This is clearly the Chinese coaching team's
new invention!

1006
00:58:43,936 --> 00:58:45,646
What technique was that?

1007
00:58:47,440 --> 00:58:50,943
Everything goes exactly
like the Chinese team predicted.

1008
00:58:50,943 --> 00:58:55,443
The fifth set, Bai Minhe faces Podpinka,
to whom he's never lost.

1009
00:59:08,044 --> 00:59:09,670
Although they got a taste
of a long-lost victory,

1010
00:59:09,670 --> 00:59:13,340
the Chinese team is just good
at collective teamwork.

1011
00:59:13,340 --> 00:59:17,840
The strength of the Chinese players
is not remarkable.

1012
00:59:18,554 --> 00:59:22,182
The two young players
in their first appearance are anomalies.

1013
00:59:22,183 --> 00:59:26,683
Under their unique system,
how many young talents like them are there?

1014
00:59:28,814 --> 00:59:31,316
We won!

1015
00:59:31,317 --> 00:59:33,819
The men's ping pong team got lucky.

1016
00:59:33,819 --> 00:59:34,903
Didn't face the Swedish team this time.

1017
00:59:34,904 --> 00:59:36,322
They can't defeat the Swedes.

1018
00:59:44,538 --> 00:59:45,664
Top class sport clubs in Europe.
(South Korean Invitational, Residence Hotel)

1019
00:59:45,664 --> 00:59:46,915
Royal Charleroi Club.
(South Korean Invitational, Residence Hotel)

1020
00:59:46,916 --> 00:59:47,541
Take a look!

1021
00:59:47,541 --> 00:59:48,708
Go away!

1022
00:59:49,835 --> 00:59:51,044
Take my card.

1023
00:59:51,045 --> 00:59:52,546
No, thanks.

1024
00:59:52,546 --> 00:59:54,422
Okay, okay!

1025
00:59:54,423 --> 00:59:56,049
Good. Talk to me.

1026
00:59:58,844 --> 00:59:59,845
There's my number.

1027
00:59:59,845 --> 01:00:00,345
Here.

1028
01:00:00,346 --> 01:00:01,180
Truly,

1029
01:00:01,180 --> 01:00:02,347
with your talents,

1030
01:00:03,057 --> 01:00:05,059
you'd have your pick

1031
01:00:05,059 --> 01:00:06,226
of European clubs.

1032
01:00:06,227 --> 01:00:08,187
The salary will be 50 times
what you make now.

1033
01:00:08,187 --> 01:00:09,062
How much?

1034
01:00:09,772 --> 01:00:10,773
50 times.

1035
01:00:11,398 --> 01:00:12,690
I have connections in every club,

1036
01:00:12,691 --> 01:00:13,400
don't worry,

1037
01:00:13,400 --> 01:00:15,276
I'll make sure you make a fortune.

1038
01:00:16,695 --> 01:00:17,904
Consider it.

1039
01:00:21,283 --> 01:00:22,909
Not bad, Coach Dai.

1040
01:00:23,577 --> 01:00:24,703
I'm surprised.

1041
01:00:35,297 --> 01:00:36,715
One question, Coach Dai.

1042
01:00:39,093 --> 01:00:40,552
Over the years in Italy

1043
01:00:41,053 --> 01:00:41,803
you made plenty of dough.

1044
01:00:42,429 --> 01:00:43,805
Does your conscience allow you
to keep your players

1045
01:00:43,806 --> 01:00:45,307
impoverished?

1046
01:00:50,771 --> 01:00:51,938
What's your offer?

1047
01:00:57,278 --> 01:00:58,279
Come, come.

1048
01:00:58,946 --> 01:01:00,155
Who wants to pick first?

1049
01:01:03,284 --> 01:01:04,285
I've done showering.

1050
01:01:08,289 --> 01:01:10,082
To let current national team players

1051
01:01:10,082 --> 01:01:11,416
go play in European leagues,

1052
01:01:11,417 --> 01:01:13,293
who would dare to approve that?

1053
01:01:13,294 --> 01:01:14,295
What would the leadership think?

1054
01:01:14,795 --> 01:01:16,087
What would our colleagues think?

1055
01:01:16,672 --> 01:01:18,090
What about the public?

1056
01:01:18,674 --> 01:01:19,925
Here, noodles.

1057
01:01:20,801 --> 01:01:21,593
Dai.

1058
01:01:21,594 --> 01:01:23,095
You must be nuts.

1059
01:01:23,095 --> 01:01:24,930
My legs hurt having to sit like this.

1060
01:01:24,930 --> 01:01:27,098
At least we have the noodles.

1061
01:01:27,099 --> 01:01:28,183
That's the last pack of pickles.

1062
01:01:28,184 --> 01:01:28,934
Give me some.

1063
01:01:28,934 --> 01:01:30,101
Don't eat them all yourself.

1064
01:01:30,519 --> 01:01:31,937
Who's Saive's coach?

1065
01:01:34,440 --> 01:01:35,274
Wang Dayong.

1066
01:01:35,649 --> 01:01:36,816
What about Rosskopf?

1067
01:01:37,276 --> 01:01:38,527
Li Xianjue.

1068
01:01:38,527 --> 01:01:39,152
Waldy,

1069
01:01:39,153 --> 01:01:39,653
Linde.

1070
01:01:39,653 --> 01:01:40,945
All learned from us.

1071
01:01:41,447 --> 01:01:42,823
Why shouldn't we learn from them?

1072
01:01:44,450 --> 01:01:45,159
Today we won in Korea.

1073
01:01:45,159 --> 01:01:46,535
What about Gothenburg next year?

1074
01:01:49,038 --> 01:01:51,165
The future of ping pong is topspin strokes.

1075
01:01:52,458 --> 01:01:54,543
We can't even beat the 5th ranked Saive!

1076
01:01:54,543 --> 01:01:56,336
How will we play
against the world champion Waldy?

1077
01:02:03,552 --> 01:02:04,553
Don't you already have a plan?

1078
01:02:04,553 --> 01:02:05,554
Why are you asking us?

1079
01:02:05,554 --> 01:02:06,972
I can't dictate the plan.

1080
01:02:07,973 --> 01:02:08,807
Alright now.

1081
01:02:08,807 --> 01:02:09,682
Let's vote.

1082
01:02:09,683 --> 01:02:10,558
Okay?

1083
01:02:20,527 --> 01:02:22,195
An unanimous agreement?

1084
01:02:29,536 --> 01:02:30,036
Hey, don't hit that!

1085
01:02:30,037 --> 01:02:31,204
This is for you.

1086
01:02:31,205 --> 01:02:32,831
This is for your mom.

1087
01:02:32,831 --> 01:02:35,208
Is it necessary to buy perfume
that's ping pong shaped?

1088
01:02:36,210 --> 01:02:37,336
How much is this?

1089
01:02:37,836 --> 01:02:38,545
Bonus.

1090
01:02:39,046 --> 01:02:39,838
Not much.

1091
01:02:40,339 --> 01:02:41,548
I've got

1092
01:02:42,925 --> 01:02:44,051
this much left.

1093
01:02:44,551 --> 01:02:45,343
Holy cow,

1094
01:02:45,344 --> 01:02:47,054
so much?

1095
01:02:50,349 --> 01:02:52,059
How did you divide the bonus?

1096
01:02:52,851 --> 01:02:53,852
Listen to me,

1097
01:02:54,186 --> 01:02:57,189
You need to give more to
Changbiao, Xiaodong, and Jingling.

1098
01:02:58,190 --> 01:02:59,566
We are living together.

1099
01:02:59,566 --> 01:03:00,692
They live away from their families.

1100
01:03:00,693 --> 01:03:02,194
It must be tough for their wives.

1101
01:03:02,194 --> 01:03:03,570
Tell dad, it's sweet.

1102
01:03:03,570 --> 01:03:04,404
Understand?

1103
01:03:04,405 --> 01:03:05,697
Yeah, yeah.

1104
01:03:07,533 --> 01:03:09,076
Say "sweet" to dad.

1105
01:03:09,910 --> 01:03:10,785
Sweet.

1106
01:03:11,912 --> 01:03:12,913
Sweet or not!

1107
01:03:15,291 --> 01:03:17,084
Doctors at the air force general hospital
said that

1108
01:03:17,584 --> 01:03:19,794
it's due to
the complex language environment.

1109
01:03:19,795 --> 01:03:20,796
His grandma speaks Chengzhou dialect.

1110
01:03:20,796 --> 01:03:21,797
I speak Shanghainese.

1111
01:03:21,797 --> 01:03:22,589
The athletes in this community

1112
01:03:22,589 --> 01:03:24,299
come from all over China.

1113
01:03:24,800 --> 01:03:26,426
That's why he struggles
with language development.

1114
01:03:26,802 --> 01:03:27,803
But he's smart like me.

1115
01:03:27,803 --> 01:03:28,929
Don't worry.

1116
01:03:29,305 --> 01:03:32,308
Changbiao's daughter could already recite
poems at his age.

1117
01:03:33,934 --> 01:03:35,602
Wouldn't you celebrate with me?

1118
01:03:35,602 --> 01:03:36,769
We've got so many dishes
to go with the wine.

1119
01:03:36,770 --> 01:03:37,562
Let's toast.

1120
01:03:37,563 --> 01:03:38,564
Come.

1121
01:03:42,776 --> 01:03:44,277
We have more wine dishes.

1122
01:03:44,653 --> 01:03:46,446
Vieri sent from France.

1123
01:03:50,159 --> 01:03:53,162
(English) Waldner,
the top seed of this competition.

1124
01:03:53,162 --> 01:03:56,957
(English) It's his serve again.
Another game point tonight.

1125
01:03:59,668 --> 01:04:01,086
(English) And Waldner won again.

1126
01:04:01,086 --> 01:04:04,297
(English) For the whole tournament,
you've only lost 1 game out of 16 sets.

1127
01:04:04,298 --> 01:04:08,176
(English) You've crushed all opponents and
won the championship with a record winning rate.

1128
01:04:08,177 --> 01:04:11,180
(English) Is the Swedish team
even stronger than last year?

1129
01:04:12,681 --> 01:04:15,809
(English) If there were a hundred points
in table tennis,

1130
01:04:17,102 --> 01:04:19,938
(English) then I only know
about five points.

1131
01:04:19,938 --> 01:04:23,024
(English) A very dangerous force
has appeared in table tennis now.

1132
01:04:23,776 --> 01:04:25,527
(English) Once we stop where we are,

1133
01:04:25,527 --> 01:04:27,946
(English) they'll kill us
in Gothenburg next year.

1134
01:04:27,946 --> 01:04:30,031
(English) So we'll continue to improve.

1135
01:04:30,032 --> 01:04:31,283
(English) Thanks.

1136
01:04:33,035 --> 01:04:34,661
He's talking about you guys, right?

1137
01:04:35,829 --> 01:04:36,830
He's scared.

1138
01:04:36,830 --> 01:04:38,164
Must be!

1139
01:04:38,165 --> 01:04:39,791
I'm good at reading people.

1140
01:04:41,043 --> 01:04:41,793
Come.

1141
01:04:41,794 --> 01:04:42,669
Cheers.

1142
01:04:44,463 --> 01:04:45,464
Cheers!

1143
01:05:28,048 --> 01:05:28,923
Dong.

1144
01:05:28,924 --> 01:05:29,925
Hello.

1145
01:05:30,676 --> 01:05:31,718
This time

1146
01:05:31,718 --> 01:05:33,845
you won't trick me, yeah?

1147
01:05:35,055 --> 01:05:36,848
These two aren't retired players.

1148
01:05:37,182 --> 01:05:39,058
They're current national team players.

1149
01:05:40,436 --> 01:05:41,770
Champion of Youth Games.

1150
01:05:41,770 --> 01:05:43,021
Champion of National Games.

1151
01:05:43,021 --> 01:05:44,272
Ex world champion.

1152
01:05:49,778 --> 01:05:50,904
On one condition.

1153
01:05:52,030 --> 01:05:52,905
This one goes to Germany.

1154
01:05:53,282 --> 01:05:54,199
This one goes to Sweden.

1155
01:06:03,292 --> 01:06:04,209
Mom.

1156
01:06:05,210 --> 01:06:06,294
I'm going abroad.

1157
01:06:08,213 --> 01:06:09,923
The application was approved so fast.

1158
01:06:10,299 --> 01:06:11,425
That's great!

1159
01:06:12,050 --> 01:06:14,052
Shi jun!

1160
01:06:14,052 --> 01:06:14,927
Quick,

1161
01:06:14,928 --> 01:06:17,430
book our son a ticket to Sydney!

1162
01:06:17,431 --> 01:06:18,932
Tell your dad.

1163
01:06:19,808 --> 01:06:20,934
I'm going to Europe.

1164
01:06:21,602 --> 01:06:22,769
State-sponsored training trip.

1165
01:06:26,273 --> 01:06:27,399
Son.

1166
01:06:27,941 --> 01:06:29,567
What do you mean?

1167
01:06:37,784 --> 01:06:39,660
If Zhao goes to Germany,
who's going to Sweden?

1168
01:06:39,661 --> 01:06:40,578
Jizu.

1169
01:06:40,579 --> 01:06:41,788
Must be.

1170
01:06:41,788 --> 01:06:43,581
Me? I can't even beat Zhigang.

1171
01:06:43,582 --> 01:06:45,083
Even if Zhigang is okay with that,

1172
01:06:45,083 --> 01:06:47,168
will Huaming be?

1173
01:06:47,961 --> 01:06:49,295
Stop guessing.

1174
01:06:49,296 --> 01:06:50,297
Must be Bai.

1175
01:06:50,297 --> 01:06:51,923
That's not possible.

1176
01:06:51,924 --> 01:06:53,300
What are you doing, Bai?

1177
01:06:57,596 --> 01:07:00,181
He's checking out his girlfriend
in the hotel across the street.

1178
01:07:04,937 --> 01:07:06,772
Didn't she come by just last week?

1179
01:07:06,772 --> 01:07:07,939
Start missing each other already?

1180
01:07:07,940 --> 01:07:08,649
Bai.

1181
01:07:08,649 --> 01:07:09,816
Is she pretty?

1182
01:07:15,531 --> 01:07:18,659
Coach Dai would also allow you
to have a girlfriend if you play well.

1183
01:07:18,659 --> 01:07:19,951
In any case it can't be him.

1184
01:07:20,160 --> 01:07:21,661
If it's not Bai,

1185
01:07:21,662 --> 01:07:23,163
then who's taking the last spot?

1186
01:07:23,163 --> 01:07:24,789
By age.

1187
01:07:24,790 --> 01:07:26,166
By experience.

1188
01:07:26,166 --> 01:07:27,041
By style.

1189
01:07:27,042 --> 01:07:28,168
It can only be Wen.

1190
01:07:28,168 --> 01:07:30,336
Right, it must be Wen.

1191
01:07:30,337 --> 01:07:31,046
It must be Wen.

1192
01:07:31,046 --> 01:07:32,047
Must be you.

1193
01:07:33,173 --> 01:07:34,674
Nah...

1194
01:07:34,675 --> 01:07:35,967
Of course not.

1195
01:07:37,344 --> 01:07:39,804
It can never be Wen.

1196
01:07:39,805 --> 01:07:41,181
Want to put money on it?

1197
01:07:42,975 --> 01:07:44,559
If it's none of them,

1198
01:07:44,560 --> 01:07:45,686
who do you think it is then?

1199
01:07:45,686 --> 01:07:46,895
You, duh!

1200
01:07:48,397 --> 01:07:49,898
Who else would it be?

1201
01:07:50,399 --> 01:07:52,526
I shouldn't have guessed
the decision of the coaches.

1202
01:07:53,193 --> 01:07:54,903
Especially shouldn't have fabricated lies.

1203
01:07:54,903 --> 01:07:56,195
Spread lies, disturbed the team.

1204
01:07:58,699 --> 01:08:00,033
I promise to right my wrongs

1205
01:08:00,033 --> 01:08:01,659
and will not misbehave ever ever again.

1206
01:08:02,202 --> 01:08:03,661
I'm canceling your breaks for 6 months.

1207
01:08:04,329 --> 01:08:06,164
If there's a next time,
I'll cancel your annual bonus.

1208
01:08:07,541 --> 01:08:10,168
How did you know Bat's not going to Sweden?

1209
01:08:13,046 --> 01:08:14,547
Bai is the...

1210
01:08:17,175 --> 01:08:18,426
He's the heart of the team.

1211
01:08:18,427 --> 01:08:19,845
The team will lose focus without him.

1212
01:08:20,345 --> 01:08:21,554
How did you know

1213
01:08:21,555 --> 01:08:22,722
that it wouldn't be you?

1214
01:08:24,224 --> 01:08:25,058
Me?

1215
01:08:25,851 --> 01:08:27,060
Me and Gong Feng

1216
01:08:27,060 --> 01:08:28,686
are the secret weapons.

1217
01:08:29,271 --> 01:08:30,397
China's gold medal machines.

1218
01:08:30,397 --> 01:08:31,689
Can't just go showing us off.

1219
01:08:32,024 --> 01:08:33,567
Gold medal machines?

1220
01:08:33,567 --> 01:08:34,401
Get lost!

1221
01:08:37,279 --> 01:08:38,905
This kid!

1222
01:08:38,905 --> 01:08:39,906
Sharp as a tack!

1223
01:08:40,198 --> 01:08:42,283
We debated for three days
to make those decisions.

1224
01:08:42,284 --> 01:08:44,703
This kid got there in five minutes.

1225
01:08:46,288 --> 01:08:47,789
Zhao, Dong,

1226
01:08:47,789 --> 01:08:49,290
train hard in Europe.

1227
01:08:49,291 --> 01:08:50,292
- Don't miss me.
- Go to hell.

1228
01:08:50,292 --> 01:08:51,418
- Stop blabbering.
- Bye, all.

1229
01:08:51,418 --> 01:08:52,585
Off you go.

1230
01:08:54,713 --> 01:08:54,921
Fourth hit.

1231
01:08:54,921 --> 01:08:56,213
Fourth hit.

1232
01:08:56,590 --> 01:08:57,924
Fifth hit.

1233
01:08:58,300 --> 01:08:59,801
Sixth hit.

1234
01:09:00,218 --> 01:09:01,719
Seventh hit.

1235
01:09:02,054 --> 01:09:03,430
Eighth hit.

1236
01:09:03,805 --> 01:09:05,306
Hell yeah!

1237
01:09:05,307 --> 01:09:06,099
Hell yeah, Gong Feng!

1238
01:09:07,434 --> 01:09:09,227
Hell yeah?

1239
01:09:10,771 --> 01:09:12,272
You can go to hell.

1240
01:09:18,779 --> 01:09:19,780
Wen!

1241
01:09:59,945 --> 01:10:01,154
Gong Feng.

1242
01:10:06,326 --> 01:10:10,038
Happy birthday!

1243
01:10:13,959 --> 01:10:16,044
I don't do birthdays.

1244
01:10:16,044 --> 01:10:16,669
Well,

1245
01:10:16,670 --> 01:10:18,296
then it's your first.

1246
01:10:22,676 --> 01:10:24,177
What's your problem?

1247
01:10:24,177 --> 01:10:26,971
If we weren't all on the same team
who'd even want to talk to you?

1248
01:10:26,972 --> 01:10:27,973
Stop it, Wen.

1249
01:10:27,973 --> 01:10:29,474
You're the worst player in the team!

1250
01:10:29,474 --> 01:10:31,684
I help you in training every single day,
have you ever said thanks?

1251
01:10:31,685 --> 01:10:33,520
You're in the main lineup. What about me?

1252
01:10:33,895 --> 01:10:35,396
Cranking up music at 3 in the morning!

1253
01:10:35,397 --> 01:10:36,398
Don't we need to sleep?

1254
01:10:36,398 --> 01:10:36,815
Wen!

1255
01:10:36,815 --> 01:10:38,191
You are a monster!

1256
01:10:38,191 --> 01:10:40,026
No wonder no family of yours
ever comes to visit!

1257
01:10:40,026 --> 01:10:41,527
You're a damn weirdo!

1258
01:10:43,029 --> 01:10:43,821
What are you doing!

1259
01:10:43,822 --> 01:10:44,531
Stop fighting!

1260
01:10:44,531 --> 01:10:45,823
Stop it!

1261
01:10:50,036 --> 01:10:51,037
Chen Wen.

1262
01:10:52,205 --> 01:10:53,206
What are you doing?

1263
01:10:57,711 --> 01:10:58,920
Are you crazy?

1264
01:11:10,849 --> 01:11:11,933
Coach.

1265
01:11:11,933 --> 01:11:13,184
What are you looking at?

1266
01:11:13,185 --> 01:11:13,935
Normal speed!

1267
01:11:13,935 --> 01:11:15,269
Run!

1268
01:11:20,275 --> 01:11:21,401
Keep running!

1269
01:11:21,401 --> 01:11:21,901
Accelerate!

1270
01:11:21,902 --> 01:11:24,070
Normal speed, keep it up!

1271
01:11:24,696 --> 01:11:27,198
Chen Wen!

1272
01:11:28,700 --> 01:11:30,702
Didn't you always want to play overseas?

1273
01:11:31,787 --> 01:11:33,288
European clubs.

1274
01:11:33,288 --> 01:11:34,289
Take your pick.

1275
01:11:34,915 --> 01:11:36,207
I can call to recommend you.

1276
01:11:36,917 --> 01:11:38,293
You should make some money
after retirement.

1277
01:11:40,212 --> 01:11:41,796
I entered the sports academy at 8.

1278
01:11:41,797 --> 01:11:43,215
Got selected for the national team at 19.

1279
01:11:43,215 --> 01:11:44,090
For a dozen years,

1280
01:11:44,716 --> 01:11:45,800
I've killed myself

1281
01:11:45,801 --> 01:11:48,094
training around that damn green table.

1282
01:11:48,720 --> 01:11:49,804
Except for Bai,

1283
01:11:50,430 --> 01:11:52,807
I'm the best loop player
in the whole country.

1284
01:11:53,809 --> 01:11:55,227
And because of that,

1285
01:11:56,269 --> 01:11:57,770
you used me to elevate others.

1286
01:12:01,566 --> 01:12:03,067
Coach Dai.

1287
01:12:04,569 --> 01:12:06,279
You retired at 24,

1288
01:12:06,279 --> 01:12:08,781
because you knew
you'd never get to be a champion.

1289
01:12:09,282 --> 01:12:10,950
When you know your hopeless destiny,

1290
01:12:10,951 --> 01:12:12,285
what's the point of fighting?

1291
01:12:15,664 --> 01:12:17,415
I'm relieved today.

1292
01:12:20,085 --> 01:12:22,587
I'll start a business back home.

1293
01:12:24,089 --> 01:12:25,173
Ping pong players

1294
01:12:25,173 --> 01:12:26,424
are all smart as hell.

1295
01:12:26,424 --> 01:12:27,591
You will make it.

1296
01:12:28,093 --> 01:12:29,969
Being an athlete is tough enough.

1297
01:12:29,970 --> 01:12:32,973
Don't ask Dong and the boys
to do cartwheels for money anymore.

1298
01:12:33,807 --> 01:12:35,099
When I've made some money,

1299
01:12:35,100 --> 01:12:36,976
I'll be your damn sponsor.

1300
01:12:36,977 --> 01:12:39,020
However much you ask, I'll give.

1301
01:12:43,441 --> 01:12:44,525
This is from your coach.

1302
01:12:59,666 --> 01:13:01,668
Tell my coach I'm sorry.

1303
01:13:22,397 --> 01:13:23,314
What was that?

1304
01:13:24,691 --> 01:13:25,525
Go!

1305
01:13:26,526 --> 01:13:27,401
Keep running!

1306
01:13:30,697 --> 01:13:32,407
Choosing to be an athlete

1307
01:13:32,908 --> 01:13:35,410
means choosing the hardest path
in the world.

1308
01:13:37,329 --> 01:13:39,205
Chen Wen has left the path.

1309
01:13:39,915 --> 01:13:41,917
Who will be the next?

1310
01:13:45,003 --> 01:13:49,503
(Berlin, Germany
European Table Tennis Cup)

1311
01:13:50,050 --> 01:13:51,426
Good job.

1312
01:13:53,428 --> 01:13:54,679
Great job, Huang.

1313
01:13:54,679 --> 01:13:58,849
This is the first time the club
has entered top 8 in Europe.

1314
01:13:58,850 --> 01:14:00,852
The next round starts in an hour.

1315
01:14:00,852 --> 01:14:02,562
Do you know who your opponent will be?

1316
01:14:02,896 --> 01:14:04,772
I know it'll be Saive.

1317
01:14:04,773 --> 01:14:06,024
Don't worry.

1318
01:14:06,024 --> 01:14:08,693
Although I lost to him twice in Busan,

1319
01:14:08,693 --> 01:14:10,778
today I will do my best.

1320
01:14:11,696 --> 01:14:13,280
Saive is out.

1321
01:14:13,281 --> 01:14:16,409
He just had the ugliest loss in his career.

1322
01:14:46,898 --> 01:14:47,899
You okay?

1323
01:14:48,650 --> 01:14:49,442
Come.

1324
01:14:49,442 --> 01:14:50,276
I'm okay.

1325
01:14:58,284 --> 01:15:00,160
You're the highest paid player on the team!

1326
01:15:00,787 --> 01:15:03,164
Nobody expected you to beat
the invincible Swedes,

1327
01:15:03,164 --> 01:15:05,791
but you weren't supposed to
lose that badly!

1328
01:15:08,420 --> 01:15:10,171
I'm benching you for a month.

1329
01:15:30,817 --> 01:15:33,027
I've already trained here for so long!

1330
01:15:33,653 --> 01:15:36,322
Now I can't even play matches anymore!

1331
01:15:37,282 --> 01:15:38,157
Coach.

1332
01:15:38,158 --> 01:15:39,826
Could you please listen to me?

1333
01:15:40,535 --> 01:15:41,536
Listen to me.

1334
01:15:41,536 --> 01:15:42,453
Seriously.

1335
01:15:42,954 --> 01:15:44,830
Let me come home.

1336
01:15:44,831 --> 01:15:46,791
Please!

1337
01:15:46,791 --> 01:15:48,959
I can't take it anymore, I'm going crazy!

1338
01:15:48,960 --> 01:15:52,171
Dreams of generations of
national table tennis players are on you now.

1339
01:15:52,172 --> 01:15:54,674
You're not allowed to come back
without learning real techniques.

1340
01:15:54,674 --> 01:15:56,550
Anything else?

1341
01:15:56,551 --> 01:15:58,469
Overseas phone calls are expensive.

1342
01:15:58,803 --> 01:16:01,180
Everyone thinks
I've got it so easy out here!

1343
01:16:01,181 --> 01:16:02,974
But I'm in pain everyday!

1344
01:16:03,308 --> 01:16:04,475
So tell me.

1345
01:16:04,476 --> 01:16:05,310
Why?

1346
01:16:05,310 --> 01:16:06,644
Why!

1347
01:16:06,644 --> 01:16:08,312
I want to go home.

1348
01:16:08,313 --> 01:16:10,023
I want to go home today!

1349
01:16:10,523 --> 01:16:11,690
I've got no one to talk to.

1350
01:16:11,900 --> 01:16:13,526
I can only watch “A Better Tomorrow”
every day.

1351
01:16:13,735 --> 01:16:16,195
I can even speak Cantonese
now as a Beijinger!

1352
01:16:17,530 --> 01:16:19,406
Already kind of sounds like Chow Yun Fat.

1353
01:16:22,827 --> 01:16:24,411
What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

1354
01:16:24,412 --> 01:16:25,913
Next time he calls,

1355
01:16:25,914 --> 01:16:26,706
tell him I'm not in,

1356
01:16:26,706 --> 01:16:27,415
Okay?

1357
01:16:36,257 --> 01:16:40,386
(Kalmar, Sweden
Kalmar City Club)

1358
01:16:40,845 --> 01:16:41,345
Dong!

1359
01:16:42,180 --> 01:16:42,930
Dong!

1360
01:16:44,599 --> 01:16:45,349
Dong!

1361
01:16:45,850 --> 01:16:46,684
Dong!

1362
01:16:49,896 --> 01:16:51,898
Get moving! Now!

1363
01:16:51,898 --> 01:16:53,691
Don't be lazy, Dong!

1364
01:16:57,529 --> 01:16:59,280
I asked for water, not a towel.

1365
01:17:00,698 --> 01:17:01,782
Okay, okay.

1366
01:17:09,541 --> 01:17:11,084
Okay, Dong. Now train with me.

1367
01:17:11,584 --> 01:17:12,710
Okay, okay.

1368
01:17:16,297 --> 01:17:17,298
(English) Hey, Dong.

1369
01:17:17,298 --> 01:17:19,425
(English) We can finally have dinner tonight,
right?

1370
01:17:19,801 --> 01:17:21,928
(English) Oh come on!
You're always breaking my heart.

1371
01:17:21,928 --> 01:17:24,305
(English) I don't even want to
give you your own package.

1372
01:17:24,305 --> 01:17:25,306
(English) From whom?

1373
01:17:26,724 --> 01:17:28,308
(English) It's from your brother.

1374
01:17:28,309 --> 01:17:29,310
(English) But,

1375
01:17:29,811 --> 01:17:32,271
(English) he's not as good looking as you are.

1376
01:17:32,647 --> 01:17:33,773
You don't have a chance.

1377
01:17:33,773 --> 01:17:34,940
Come on.

1378
01:17:40,113 --> 01:17:41,781
Work hard!

1379
01:17:41,948 --> 01:17:43,658
Come on, Huang Zhao!

1380
01:17:43,658 --> 01:17:46,285
You're the greatest in the world!

1381
01:17:46,786 --> 01:17:49,079
The greatest!

1382
01:17:50,248 --> 01:17:53,751
(Six months later)

1383
01:18:06,181 --> 01:18:07,599
Come on, faster!

1384
01:18:08,808 --> 01:18:09,934
Good job, Gong Feng. Keep going!

1385
01:18:11,769 --> 01:18:12,936
When you're ready to give up,

1386
01:18:12,937 --> 01:18:14,772
your opponent will be too!

1387
01:18:15,648 --> 01:18:19,276
Our country built the best training base in the world.
(National Sports Commission, Special Training)

1388
01:18:19,777 --> 01:18:21,445
Final closed training!

1389
01:18:21,446 --> 01:18:23,156
Full simulation of
the competition conditions!

1390
01:18:23,156 --> 01:18:24,782
Your generation

1391
01:18:24,782 --> 01:18:26,325
will decide the fate of ping pong!

1392
01:18:34,834 --> 01:18:36,544
These kids,

1393
01:18:36,544 --> 01:18:37,962
if they manage to mature,

1394
01:18:38,296 --> 01:18:39,463
I think,

1395
01:18:39,464 --> 01:18:40,673
personally,

1396
01:18:42,675 --> 01:18:44,468
the Swaythling Cup will be just the start.

1397
01:18:56,814 --> 01:18:58,315
Stop it!

1398
01:19:01,903 --> 01:19:03,029
Say daddy.

1399
01:19:03,029 --> 01:19:04,030
Groom it back more.

1400
01:19:04,030 --> 01:19:04,822
Like this.

1401
01:19:05,657 --> 01:19:06,908
Do I look like daddy?

1402
01:19:06,908 --> 01:19:08,200
Say daddy.

1403
01:19:08,201 --> 01:19:08,910
Do I look like daddy?

1404
01:19:08,910 --> 01:19:09,660
Come on!

1405
01:19:09,661 --> 01:19:11,037
I'm daddy!

1406
01:19:16,542 --> 01:19:18,919
Zhao! Dong!

1407
01:19:18,920 --> 01:19:21,839
You're back!

1408
01:19:29,055 --> 01:19:30,848
That was Persson's backhand.

1409
01:19:30,848 --> 01:19:32,182
This is Waldy's service.

1410
01:19:36,062 --> 01:19:37,188
Like this.

1411
01:19:37,188 --> 01:19:38,189
This is Karlsson.

1412
01:19:38,189 --> 01:19:38,898
This is Karlsson, Get it?

1413
01:19:38,898 --> 01:19:40,774
Get lower. This position.

1414
01:19:42,902 --> 01:19:45,571
This chop goes to Karlsson's backhand.

1415
01:19:58,418 --> 01:19:59,585
Chang Biao,

1416
01:19:59,585 --> 01:20:02,045
I think this batch of K52 glue should work.

1417
01:20:10,555 --> 01:20:11,722
Glue!

1418
01:20:11,931 --> 01:20:13,557
Glue!

1419
01:20:13,808 --> 01:20:15,059
Glue!

1420
01:20:15,059 --> 01:20:15,934
Done!

1421
01:20:15,935 --> 01:20:17,436
Will this glue really work?

1422
01:20:17,437 --> 01:20:18,271
Do you think?

1423
01:20:18,271 --> 01:20:19,146
Wait until it's dry.

1424
01:20:19,147 --> 01:20:20,565
Quiet, we haven't tried it yet.

1425
01:20:29,157 --> 01:20:31,659
It's not soft at all. So handy!

1426
01:20:32,076 --> 01:20:33,911
With this racket you don't need to worry
about getting the ball on the table.

1427
01:20:33,911 --> 01:20:36,955
- Just hit! With all your strength!
- The Europeans achieved speed change strokes like this.

1428
01:20:36,956 --> 01:20:38,290
Go directly forward.

1429
01:20:38,791 --> 01:20:40,167
Don't go for the spin.

1430
01:20:40,168 --> 01:20:42,795
Good hit, Bai! Nice!

1431
01:20:42,795 --> 01:20:46,089
We've got this!

1432
01:20:48,301 --> 01:20:50,177
Li Fan, Li Fan!

1433
01:20:50,178 --> 01:20:51,596
Listen to me.

1434
01:20:51,596 --> 01:20:53,598
Wait until I'm back on the 6th.

1435
01:20:53,598 --> 01:20:54,599
Then I'll...

1436
01:20:54,599 --> 01:20:55,433
Hello?

1437
01:20:55,433 --> 01:20:56,434
Wang Ying.

1438
01:20:56,934 --> 01:20:57,976
Dai.

1439
01:20:57,977 --> 01:20:59,019
Listen!

1440
01:20:59,020 --> 01:21:00,312
On the train back to Beijing,

1441
01:21:00,313 --> 01:21:02,440
your son spoke!

1442
01:21:02,440 --> 01:21:03,649
One second.

1443
01:21:04,025 --> 01:21:05,317
Tell dad.

1444
01:21:05,777 --> 01:21:06,944
Sal

1445
01:21:11,783 --> 01:21:12,950
Did you hear it?

1446
01:21:12,950 --> 01:21:14,451
Did you hear him talk?

1447
01:21:14,786 --> 01:21:15,787
Wasn't he good?

1448
01:21:16,662 --> 01:21:17,454
Hello?

1449
01:21:18,039 --> 01:21:18,831
Dai.

1450
01:21:18,831 --> 01:21:19,957
Are you still there?

1451
01:21:20,541 --> 01:21:21,333
Hello?

1452
01:21:41,813 --> 01:21:42,522
Minhe.

1453
01:21:43,147 --> 01:21:44,523
I forgot to get shampoo again.

1454
01:21:45,316 --> 01:21:46,817
Stingy as usual.

1455
01:21:55,910 --> 01:21:57,036
If you even try to tell anyone,

1456
01:21:57,412 --> 01:21:58,913
I'll annihilate you!

1457
01:22:19,183 --> 01:22:20,934
Bai has been doing really well lately.

1458
01:22:20,935 --> 01:22:22,394
Even if it's against Waldy,

1459
01:22:22,395 --> 01:22:23,562
he has a great chance to win.

1460
01:22:23,563 --> 01:22:25,273
Huang Zhao can play number two now.

1461
01:22:25,273 --> 01:22:26,190
Since he's come back from Europe,

1462
01:22:26,190 --> 01:22:27,274
he's been rising fast.

1463
01:22:27,275 --> 01:22:29,277
The only tough cookie is Karlsson.

1464
01:22:29,902 --> 01:22:31,570
Do we have someone who can take him?

1465
01:22:31,571 --> 01:22:32,405
That

1466
01:22:32,405 --> 01:22:35,282
would have to be
our carefully prepared little starter dish.

1467
01:22:36,909 --> 01:22:38,702
It's only polite
to serve some refreshments.

1468
01:22:43,791 --> 01:22:45,209
Bad news!

1469
01:22:53,050 --> 01:22:54,926
Chen's playing in a league in the UK

1470
01:22:55,303 --> 01:22:56,429
and just sent this.

1471
01:23:01,058 --> 01:23:03,226
The Swedes have known
about Gong Feng since last year.

1472
01:23:03,227 --> 01:23:05,270
How did they find him out?

1473
01:23:05,271 --> 01:23:07,064
Who's that? Do you know him?

1474
01:23:07,064 --> 01:23:09,149
Looks like Gong's friend
from the Youth team.

1475
01:23:09,150 --> 01:23:11,068
They were the most
promising young talents on the team.

1476
01:23:11,068 --> 01:23:12,652
He was doing better than Gong

1477
01:23:12,653 --> 01:23:13,945
but got a knee injury,

1478
01:23:13,946 --> 01:23:16,156
so all the best opportunities
were offered to Gong.

1479
01:23:16,157 --> 01:23:17,283
So he retired soon after that.

1480
01:23:18,659 --> 01:23:20,410
How well does he know Gong?

1481
01:23:21,662 --> 01:23:23,163
If Gong talked in his sleep,

1482
01:23:23,164 --> 01:23:24,415
he would translate it verbatim.

1483
01:23:28,794 --> 01:23:29,795
It's him indeed.

1484
01:23:29,795 --> 01:23:31,963
Swapping players before the game
doesn't look good!

1485
01:23:31,964 --> 01:23:34,424
You pulled Gong from Shanghai!

1486
01:23:34,425 --> 01:23:35,968
He's been training hard for two years!

1487
01:23:35,968 --> 01:23:36,593
Lower your voice, I'm on the phone!

1488
01:23:36,594 --> 01:23:37,595
Shut up!

1489
01:23:37,595 --> 01:23:40,097
If you don't use him in Gothenburg,
you'll ruin his career.

1490
01:23:40,806 --> 01:23:42,432
How can I face his mother?

1491
01:23:44,101 --> 01:23:46,144
Training and games are different.

1492
01:23:46,145 --> 01:23:47,521
Chop players are Karlsson's natural enemy.

1493
01:23:47,813 --> 01:23:49,272
To abandon the two-year plan

1494
01:23:49,273 --> 01:23:50,440
is too risky.

1495
01:23:51,025 --> 01:23:52,943
Even though the Swedes have studied Gong,

1496
01:23:52,944 --> 01:23:54,528
we should still get someone to play chop.

1497
01:23:55,530 --> 01:23:57,031
There's another chop player, Wang Yao.

1498
01:23:57,031 --> 01:23:58,157
He immigrated to Germany
several years back.

1499
01:23:58,157 --> 01:23:58,949
They just got him on the phone.

1500
01:23:58,950 --> 01:24:00,326
Hearing that he can still play
for the national team,

1501
01:24:00,326 --> 01:24:01,035
he's very excited.

1502
01:24:01,452 --> 01:24:02,286
One word from you,

1503
01:24:02,286 --> 01:24:03,829
and he'll fly to Gothenburg right away.

1504
01:24:11,796 --> 01:24:13,547
Gothenburg is coming up.

1505
01:24:23,975 --> 01:24:24,976
Wang Ying.

1506
01:24:26,352 --> 01:24:27,895
Any words of encouragement?

1507
01:24:28,688 --> 01:24:30,147
Like what?

1508
01:24:31,816 --> 01:24:33,192
The way I see it,

1509
01:24:33,192 --> 01:24:34,401
in a competition against foreigners,

1510
01:24:34,402 --> 01:24:35,820
I'm your good luck charm.

1511
01:24:38,197 --> 01:24:39,323
What's my last name?

1512
01:24:40,408 --> 01:24:41,826
Wang.

1513
01:24:41,826 --> 01:24:43,035
What does it mean?

1514
01:24:43,035 --> 01:24:44,411
The Champion.

1515
01:24:45,329 --> 01:24:46,330
And what's my first name?

1516
01:24:49,834 --> 01:24:52,837
Ying [Win].

1517
01:24:55,214 --> 01:24:57,424
(English) Sweden will battle China
at home in the final.

1518
01:24:57,425 --> 01:24:59,343
(English) The brand new Chinese team,
especially

1519
01:24:59,343 --> 01:25:01,845
(English) with the wonderful performances of the two young
players, (1993 - Gothenburg - 42nd World Table Tennis Championship)

1520
01:25:01,846 --> 01:25:03,556
(English) has attracted worldwide attention. (1993
- Gothenburg - 42nd World Table Tennis Championship)

1521
01:25:03,556 --> 01:25:05,224
(English) Any comments to that?

1522
01:25:05,933 --> 01:25:08,685
(English) I think everyone should
pay tribute to coach Dai,

1523
01:25:08,686 --> 01:25:10,396
(English) to Chinese.

1524
01:25:10,396 --> 01:25:13,190
(English) Because table tennis
is not only about techniques,

1525
01:25:13,190 --> 01:25:14,691
(English) but a formal of art...

1526
01:25:15,401 --> 01:25:17,194
(English) What he wants to say

1527
01:25:17,194 --> 01:25:20,697
(English) is Sweden is invincible.

1528
01:25:20,698 --> 01:25:23,575
(English) Swe-den, Swe-den!

1529
01:25:27,079 --> 01:25:28,288
Will they win?

1530
01:25:29,290 --> 01:25:30,291
Good chance.

1531
01:25:30,291 --> 01:25:31,709
James!

1532
01:25:31,709 --> 01:25:33,085
Come back with your dad!

1533
01:25:33,919 --> 01:25:35,795
Didn't you say to
never watch your son's games?

1534
01:25:36,589 --> 01:25:37,798
Stop making fun of me.

1535
01:25:37,798 --> 01:25:39,299
It starts in 5 minutes.

1536
01:25:45,431 --> 01:25:48,559
Those foreigners learned
our player placement strategy quite thoroughly.

1537
01:25:48,559 --> 01:25:50,936
Looks like they're going the offensive route.

1538
01:25:54,148 --> 01:25:55,149
In that case,

1539
01:25:55,149 --> 01:25:56,567
what if we go with their flow?

1540
01:25:58,152 --> 01:25:59,570
But we drew the home team.

1541
01:26:00,279 --> 01:26:01,780
If we place the wrong bet,

1542
01:26:01,781 --> 01:26:03,407
it'll be ugly.

1543
01:26:03,407 --> 01:26:04,282
Yeah.

1544
01:26:06,410 --> 01:26:07,661
Would this be better?

1545
01:26:08,579 --> 01:26:09,788
Not at all.

1546
01:26:09,789 --> 01:26:11,290
This is riskier.

1547
01:26:12,917 --> 01:26:13,959
Dai.

1548
01:26:21,092 --> 01:26:22,093
I'm fine.

1549
01:26:22,093 --> 01:26:23,094
I'm alright.

1550
01:26:23,094 --> 01:26:24,428
I can definitely play.

1551
01:26:25,596 --> 01:26:27,681
It's too risky now
to get a numbing injection.

1552
01:26:27,682 --> 01:26:29,183
If the acromioclavicular ligament breaks,

1553
01:26:29,183 --> 01:26:30,309
he'll be disabled for life.

1554
01:26:30,935 --> 01:26:31,977
Don't move!

1555
01:26:34,146 --> 01:26:35,272
Do we switch?

1556
01:26:37,525 --> 01:26:38,651
Coach?

1557
01:26:40,152 --> 01:26:41,945
I'll die on the court if I must!

1558
01:26:45,783 --> 01:26:46,825
Bai plays number two.

1559
01:26:47,952 --> 01:26:49,036
Zhao plays number three.

1560
01:27:03,968 --> 01:27:05,678
The chop plays number one.

1561
01:27:05,678 --> 01:27:08,681
We're in the Scandinavium
in Gothenburg, Sweden.

1562
01:27:08,681 --> 01:27:10,349
The outdoor temperature is 7 degrees,

1563
01:27:10,349 --> 01:27:12,976
but in here the temperature
has almost reached 30.

1564
01:27:13,185 --> 01:27:15,020
Since the oil crisis in the 70s,

1565
01:27:15,020 --> 01:27:17,897
Gothenburg has built
a world-leading regional heating system.

1566
01:27:18,399 --> 01:27:20,317
As one of the most developed cities
in northern Europe,

1567
01:27:20,317 --> 01:27:22,402
it has a fiery beating heart
hidden under its brutal cold weather.

1568
01:27:22,403 --> 01:27:25,406
Before the game even starts,

1569
01:27:25,406 --> 01:27:27,825
the stadium is already boiling.

1570
01:27:30,327 --> 01:27:32,329
Who's that fierce looking guy?

1571
01:27:33,330 --> 01:27:34,539
Where's our Gong?

1572
01:27:36,041 --> 01:27:39,335
China, player one,

1573
01:27:39,336 --> 01:27:41,338
Wang Yao.

1574
01:27:41,338 --> 01:27:43,340
Player two,

1575
01:27:43,340 --> 01:27:45,050
Bai Minhe.

1576
01:27:47,344 --> 01:27:48,428
Our national sport,

1577
01:27:48,429 --> 01:27:50,556
has declined in our generation.

1578
01:27:52,683 --> 01:27:55,060
I've been waiting for a chance like today.

1579
01:27:56,687 --> 01:27:57,562
I think that

1580
01:27:58,773 --> 01:28:00,775
China can rank second in any other sport,

1581
01:28:01,567 --> 01:28:03,902
but never table tennis.

1582
01:28:03,903 --> 01:28:07,281
The Chinese coaching team has fully predicted
the line-up of the Swedish team.

1583
01:28:07,281 --> 01:28:09,283
They didn't put Bai Minhe
in the first position,

1584
01:28:09,283 --> 01:28:11,910
nor the young players who
performed brilliantly in the group stage,

1585
01:28:11,911 --> 01:28:13,704
Hou Zhuoxiang, Dong Shuai.

1586
01:28:13,704 --> 01:28:16,415
Instead they gave it to the retiree,
Wang Yao.

1587
01:28:16,415 --> 01:28:19,084
This veteran player retired due
to injury in 1987 and went to Germany.

1588
01:28:19,084 --> 01:28:20,794
For this championship,
he rushed to Gothenburg.

1589
01:28:20,795 --> 01:28:24,298
He is set as player one
for his chop techniques against Karlsson.

1590
01:28:25,216 --> 01:28:26,926
A chance for Wang Yao. Smash!

1591
01:28:26,926 --> 01:28:28,302
Great hit! Beautiful!

1592
01:28:28,928 --> 01:28:30,721
Wang scores again.

1593
01:28:32,598 --> 01:28:34,308
Karlsson's turn to serve.

1594
01:28:37,269 --> 01:28:38,645
Great shot!

1595
01:28:39,563 --> 01:28:42,274
Karlsson always gets nervous
when facing chop players.

1596
01:28:42,274 --> 01:28:45,068
This is a serve that's never seen
in world-class competitions like this.

1597
01:28:45,402 --> 01:28:47,278
Karlsson backhand serve.

1598
01:28:47,279 --> 01:28:48,571
Wang chops.

1599
01:28:48,572 --> 01:28:49,781
Another chop.

1600
01:28:49,782 --> 01:28:50,908
And another.

1601
01:28:50,908 --> 01:28:51,658
Beautiful!

1602
01:28:52,284 --> 01:28:53,285
Good shot!

1603
01:28:53,661 --> 01:28:55,663
Wang is on a streak, keeps scoring!

1604
01:28:55,663 --> 01:28:57,790
Karlsson has never won
against chop players.

1605
01:28:58,290 --> 01:29:00,583
Coach Dai's promise from two years ago

1606
01:29:00,584 --> 01:29:01,793
might just come true this time.

1607
01:29:04,088 --> 01:29:04,671
Nice!

1608
01:29:04,672 --> 01:29:06,590
After a big win for Wang in the first game,

1609
01:29:06,590 --> 01:29:07,799
The second game is going wilder.

1610
01:29:07,800 --> 01:29:09,593
We have the best players

1611
01:29:09,593 --> 01:29:11,428
but the Chinese have
the most experienced coaching team.

1612
01:29:11,929 --> 01:29:13,096
Come on, Karlsson!

1613
01:29:13,097 --> 01:29:15,432
19 to 16. Karlsson's serve.

1614
01:29:15,432 --> 01:29:17,308
If Wang manages to score
one in the coming five serves,

1615
01:29:17,309 --> 01:29:18,810
he'll get the set point.

1616
01:29:18,811 --> 01:29:20,521
And if he scores two, he will win the game.

1617
01:29:21,313 --> 01:29:22,272
What a pity!

1618
01:29:23,274 --> 01:29:24,316
19 to 17,

1619
01:29:24,316 --> 01:29:25,942
Karlsson got a point back.

1620
01:29:26,151 --> 01:29:27,152
Come on, come on!

1621
01:29:28,654 --> 01:29:31,281
It's okay.
We'll have an absolute leading advantage.

1622
01:29:31,782 --> 01:29:33,658
Karlsson is deliberately

1623
01:29:33,659 --> 01:29:35,661
focusing his attack
on Wang's weak positions.

1624
01:29:36,287 --> 01:29:36,954
Nice hit!

1625
01:29:36,954 --> 01:29:38,664
Two more points, just two more!

1626
01:29:39,957 --> 01:29:41,166
It's 18 to 19 now.

1627
01:29:41,166 --> 01:29:42,041
Karlsson's serve.

1628
01:29:43,794 --> 01:29:44,669
That was a pity.

1629
01:29:45,546 --> 01:29:48,465
Wang wanted to use the long pips
to interrupt the opponent's service attack,

1630
01:29:48,465 --> 01:29:50,550
but didn't manage to. 19 all.

1631
01:29:51,176 --> 01:29:53,469
It's okay.
We're still on the same starting line.

1632
01:29:56,682 --> 01:29:58,975
The score now is 20 to 19.

1633
01:29:58,976 --> 01:30:00,477
Wang Yao was ahead

1634
01:30:00,477 --> 01:30:01,394
with 19 to 16.

1635
01:30:01,395 --> 01:30:03,397
Now Karlsson has caught up
by scoring 4 points

1636
01:30:03,397 --> 01:30:04,398
during his serving round.

1637
01:30:04,398 --> 01:30:06,400
Karsson has got the match point first.

1638
01:30:06,400 --> 01:30:08,026
The score now is 20 to 19.

1639
01:30:08,027 --> 01:30:09,028
Karlsson is one point ahead.

1640
01:30:09,028 --> 01:30:10,904
Wang Yao still has a chance
as long as he keeps it steady.

1641
01:30:11,822 --> 01:30:12,531
Wang chops.

1642
01:30:13,532 --> 01:30:14,824
Heavy spin! Wang chops again!

1643
01:30:16,327 --> 01:30:17,411
What a shame.

1644
01:30:17,411 --> 01:30:18,829
That was a pity indeed.

1645
01:30:19,830 --> 01:30:21,414
Karlsson has won back a game.

1646
01:30:21,415 --> 01:30:24,042
The two players are tied at 1 to 1.

1647
01:30:24,418 --> 01:30:25,419
Good job!

1648
01:30:25,419 --> 01:30:27,671
Well done, very well.

1649
01:30:28,839 --> 01:30:29,923
Forget that match.

1650
01:30:29,924 --> 01:30:31,175
That guy wanted to eat me alive.

1651
01:30:35,429 --> 01:30:36,054
Play like you always do.

1652
01:30:36,847 --> 01:30:38,223
Karlsson is no match for you.

1653
01:30:40,184 --> 01:30:41,185
Come on.

1654
01:30:42,227 --> 01:30:43,186
Come on!

1655
01:30:44,188 --> 01:30:45,898
Come on!

1656
01:30:47,024 --> 01:30:49,192
So, is Wang performing well today?

1657
01:30:49,693 --> 01:30:51,277
He rushed a bit in the second match.

1658
01:30:51,278 --> 01:30:53,196
But generally he's playing okay today.

1659
01:30:53,197 --> 01:30:54,406
I think

1660
01:30:54,406 --> 01:30:56,199
Karlsson has gotten used to
his way of playing.

1661
01:30:56,784 --> 01:30:58,285
Will he win today?

1662
01:30:58,285 --> 01:31:00,412
Wang wants to avenge himself too much.

1663
01:31:08,712 --> 01:31:12,424
Karlsson, 22-20.

1664
01:31:15,928 --> 01:31:18,931
What a great game!

1665
01:31:18,931 --> 01:31:23,431
Karlsson has caught up and defeated Wang Yao,
who he's never won against.

1666
01:31:23,936 --> 01:31:27,272
He has annihilated
the Chinese technically and mentally.

1667
01:31:27,272 --> 01:31:28,648
Well played.

1668
01:31:30,150 --> 01:31:31,568
It was a great match.

1669
01:31:31,568 --> 01:31:32,277
Alright?

1670
01:31:32,277 --> 01:31:33,945
You don't have to hit so hard every time.

1671
01:31:33,946 --> 01:31:35,072
We can badger him a bit longer.

1672
01:31:35,572 --> 01:31:36,656
There's still a chance.

1673
01:31:37,282 --> 01:31:38,157
Alright?

1674
01:31:38,158 --> 01:31:39,450
We still have four sets.

1675
01:31:39,451 --> 01:31:40,285
Understand?

1676
01:31:40,786 --> 01:31:41,912
Where's Bai?

1677
01:31:41,912 --> 01:31:42,454
Bai!

1678
01:31:42,454 --> 01:31:43,288
Here!

1679
01:31:43,288 --> 01:31:47,788
Go China!

1680
01:31:48,460 --> 01:31:49,669
Show them

1681
01:31:50,421 --> 01:31:51,672
that Chinese players can also play loop.

1682
01:31:55,426 --> 01:31:59,926
Go China!

1683
01:32:03,434 --> 01:32:04,810
The second match.

1684
01:32:04,810 --> 01:32:06,436
Bai Minhe against Waldner.

1685
01:32:06,437 --> 01:32:09,648
This is the match between the top
Chinese player and the world's top player.

1686
01:32:10,941 --> 01:32:12,317
They play loops against each other.

1687
01:32:12,317 --> 01:32:14,027
The audience is entirely entranced.

1688
01:32:18,657 --> 01:32:19,282
Great hit, Bai!

1689
01:32:19,825 --> 01:32:20,450
Good!

1690
01:32:21,785 --> 01:32:23,953
Bai has outperformed himself today.

1691
01:32:23,954 --> 01:32:25,956
He is no disadvantage
at all against Waldner.

1692
01:32:25,956 --> 01:32:29,334
We can only imagine how hard
the Chinese team has trained for this match.

1693
01:32:31,462 --> 01:32:32,296
Nice hit!

1694
01:32:33,047 --> 01:32:34,048
Good hit!

1695
01:32:39,970 --> 01:32:41,471
Game point 1 all.

1696
01:32:41,472 --> 01:32:42,848
Now the final game.

1697
01:32:43,849 --> 01:32:45,058
Bai Minhe's service.

1698
01:32:45,059 --> 01:32:46,185
The players are blocking fast.

1699
01:32:46,185 --> 01:32:47,352
Back to forehand.

1700
01:32:48,020 --> 01:32:48,812
It's out.

1701
01:32:52,316 --> 01:32:54,526
Waldner's tactic is impenetrable,

1702
01:32:54,526 --> 01:32:56,027
known as the guerrilla lead.

1703
01:32:56,028 --> 01:32:58,530
Not sure why he's sticking
to right side attack today,

1704
01:32:58,530 --> 01:32:59,906
and not playing left
even when there's an obvious gap.

1705
01:32:59,907 --> 01:33:02,826
These are all supposed
to be right up Bat's alley.

1706
01:33:02,826 --> 01:33:04,828
It's very unusual for Waldner.

1707
01:33:08,332 --> 01:33:09,833
He keeps attacking on the right side.

1708
01:33:09,833 --> 01:33:11,334
Bai Minhe keeps looping with forehand.

1709
01:33:12,544 --> 01:33:13,336
Nice!

1710
01:33:13,837 --> 01:33:15,338
Bai Minhe is going all out!

1711
01:33:15,547 --> 01:33:18,174
Winning all the way
with his forehand loops!

1712
01:33:21,678 --> 01:33:22,679
Who'd have thought that

1713
01:33:22,679 --> 01:33:24,555
on the world champion's home court,

1714
01:33:24,556 --> 01:33:28,059
Bai has got the set point
with 1 point ahead.

1715
01:33:34,775 --> 01:33:36,276
Great hit!

1716
01:33:37,694 --> 01:33:39,195
Sal

1717
01:33:40,906 --> 01:33:43,283
He is as heroic as
a great general from ages past.

1718
01:33:43,283 --> 01:33:46,035
With a blood-stained robe,
he will not return home without winning the war.

1719
01:33:47,579 --> 01:33:48,788
Well played, well played.

1720
01:33:49,289 --> 01:33:51,207
Your right shoulder, all good?

1721
01:33:51,208 --> 01:33:53,084
There's still the fifth set.

1722
01:33:54,419 --> 01:33:57,588
(English) Bai defeated Waldner,
the world's No.1 player.

1723
01:33:57,589 --> 01:34:00,550
(English) It's the first time
he's been defeated in 18 months.

1724
01:34:00,551 --> 01:34:02,427
(English) Here comes
the opportunity for the Chinese.

1725
01:34:02,928 --> 01:34:03,929
Top-spin opposition.

1726
01:34:04,805 --> 01:34:06,306
Careful with middle-long rallies.

1727
01:34:06,807 --> 01:34:08,058
Don't be led by the opponent.

1728
01:34:09,434 --> 01:34:10,726
Good hit!

1729
01:34:14,398 --> 01:34:15,565
I can't anymore.

1730
01:34:17,151 --> 01:34:18,569
That long drive got me.

1731
01:34:31,790 --> 01:34:32,665
What's with Bai?

1732
01:34:32,666 --> 01:34:33,416
Nothing.

1733
01:34:33,792 --> 01:34:35,293
Where were we?

1734
01:34:35,669 --> 01:34:36,419
More forehand attack,

1735
01:34:36,420 --> 01:34:37,671
careful with rallies.

1736
01:34:37,671 --> 01:34:38,171
Okay.

1737
01:34:38,172 --> 01:34:39,173
Huang Zhao.

1738
01:34:39,673 --> 01:34:40,799
You must win this!

1739
01:34:40,799 --> 01:34:41,591
Okay.

1740
01:34:42,676 --> 01:34:43,176
Go, Zhao!

1741
01:34:44,303 --> 01:34:45,929
Show them, Zhao!

1742
01:35:01,445 --> 01:35:05,945
Go China!

1743
01:35:16,335 --> 01:35:18,045
What's with Dai today?

1744
01:36:37,708 --> 01:36:41,294
(English) To make Waldner lose
is as rare as the Halley's comet.

1745
01:36:41,295 --> 01:36:43,714
(English) The Chinese have lost
a close victory.

1746
01:36:43,714 --> 01:36:45,549
(English) How many years
do they have to wait?

1747
01:36:45,549 --> 01:36:48,718
(English) The whole world knows
about coach Dai's two-year promise.

1748
01:36:48,719 --> 01:36:51,805
(English) I guess they'll need
to add a zero to that two now.

1749
01:37:09,072 --> 01:37:10,907
Come on, Dai.

1750
01:37:11,408 --> 01:37:12,283
Dai, let's go.

1751
01:37:13,076 --> 01:37:14,786
The decision was made by us together.

1752
01:37:14,786 --> 01:37:15,787
Give your mind a break.

1753
01:37:19,166 --> 01:37:20,167
Dai!

1754
01:37:22,586 --> 01:37:24,588
Careful.

1755
01:37:24,588 --> 01:37:25,964
You okay?

1756
01:37:27,090 --> 01:37:28,424
I'm fine. Let's go.

1757
01:37:29,176 --> 01:37:30,302
I'm fine.

1758
01:37:36,683 --> 01:37:37,433
Coach Dai.

1759
01:37:40,520 --> 01:37:41,938
We wanted to ask...

1760
01:37:44,024 --> 01:37:44,941
Did you...

1761
01:37:46,526 --> 01:37:48,152
really believe that we could've won?

1762
01:38:14,971 --> 01:38:16,555
Come here, everyone gather here.

1763
01:38:16,556 --> 01:38:17,181
This way.

1764
01:38:18,475 --> 01:38:19,976
Everyone gather here.

1765
01:38:20,560 --> 01:38:21,894
Hurry, get off.

1766
01:38:23,313 --> 01:38:23,813
Hurry.

1767
01:38:26,525 --> 01:38:27,817
An announcement.

1768
01:38:30,404 --> 01:38:32,030
Starting now,

1769
01:38:32,030 --> 01:38:33,156
All athletes

1770
01:38:35,033 --> 01:38:36,325
will go back home.

1771
01:38:37,911 --> 01:38:39,537
Coaches

1772
01:38:39,538 --> 01:38:41,039
will wait for further notice.

1773
01:38:44,334 --> 01:38:45,710
This national team

1774
01:38:46,670 --> 01:38:47,921
is disbanded from now on.

1775
01:38:51,925 --> 01:38:53,927
Well, I was only informed

1776
01:38:53,927 --> 01:38:55,178
just before the plane took off.

1777
01:38:57,556 --> 01:38:58,056
Alright?

1778
01:39:01,685 --> 01:39:02,435
Go.

1779
01:39:03,019 --> 01:39:03,894
What are you waiting for?

1780
01:39:04,688 --> 01:39:05,397
Go.

1781
01:39:16,032 --> 01:39:17,408
See you, Dai.

1782
01:39:17,409 --> 01:39:18,201
Bye.

1783
01:39:20,287 --> 01:39:21,913
Hope you had a good journey, Coach Dai.

1784
01:39:23,290 --> 01:39:25,417
You promised to win the Swaythling Cup
within two years.

1785
01:39:25,417 --> 01:39:26,793
Now that you've lost in Gothenburg,

1786
01:39:26,793 --> 01:39:27,919
what's your next step?

1787
01:39:27,919 --> 01:39:29,795
Swapping players before the game
and letting injured players compete.

1788
01:39:29,796 --> 01:39:30,797
Do you take full responsibility?

1789
01:39:30,797 --> 01:39:32,799
On the public denouncement
of your mismanagement of team,

1790
01:39:32,799 --> 01:39:33,800
do you have any comments?

1791
01:39:33,800 --> 01:39:35,301
What public denouncement?

1792
01:39:38,305 --> 01:39:40,098
Didn't you read the papers today?

1793
01:39:41,224 --> 01:39:43,434
Sports Times, the article by Xia Youde.

1794
01:39:49,065 --> 01:39:52,151
How was
the national team players' list decided?

1795
01:39:52,152 --> 01:39:53,653
How much of it was your decision?

1796
01:39:54,946 --> 01:39:57,073
Sending Huang Zhao and Dong Shuai

1797
01:39:57,073 --> 01:39:58,574
to compete for European clubs,

1798
01:39:58,575 --> 01:39:59,951
did you make a public annoucement?

1799
01:40:00,577 --> 01:40:01,661
For each competition,

1800
01:40:01,661 --> 01:40:03,579
how did you decide on the main lineup?

1801
01:40:05,165 --> 01:40:06,666
I've put it all in the report.

1802
01:40:07,459 --> 01:40:09,794
Through the selection campaign,
we picked out players into the national team.

1803
01:40:09,794 --> 01:40:11,462
The rest went into the talent pool.

1804
01:40:13,089 --> 01:40:14,673
Players' list for each competition
was decided by

1805
01:40:14,674 --> 01:40:15,966
head coach, coaching team,

1806
01:40:15,967 --> 01:40:16,801
and team manager,

1807
01:40:16,801 --> 01:40:18,177
through voting.

1808
01:40:19,596 --> 01:40:21,306
Is that so?

1809
01:40:21,306 --> 01:40:23,308
The training plan was made up by you alone.

1810
01:40:23,308 --> 01:40:24,309
But during games,

1811
01:40:24,309 --> 01:40:25,977
you're changing the plan all the time.

1812
01:40:26,436 --> 01:40:27,645
Do you even

1813
01:40:27,646 --> 01:40:29,648
have a serious plan?

1814
01:40:34,152 --> 01:40:35,153
I see that

1815
01:40:35,153 --> 01:40:36,946
there're some questions
for you in the article.

1816
01:40:36,947 --> 01:40:38,823
Where did you get that gold necklace from?

1817
01:40:39,533 --> 01:40:40,951
And the designer suits?

1818
01:40:42,452 --> 01:40:43,953
It is also said that,

1819
01:40:43,954 --> 01:40:45,664
during competitions,

1820
01:40:45,664 --> 01:40:47,540
instead of focusing on
strategies and tactics,

1821
01:40:47,541 --> 01:40:50,168
you spent a lot of time

1822
01:40:50,168 --> 01:40:51,794
grooming your hair everyday.

1823
01:40:52,963 --> 01:40:54,339
Any use of that hairstyle?

1824
01:40:55,048 --> 01:40:57,175
The life of a head coach

1825
01:40:57,175 --> 01:40:58,676
shouldn't be so luxurious.

1826
01:41:02,055 --> 01:41:02,972
Dinner's ready.

1827
01:41:04,558 --> 01:41:06,184
Would you like to join us?

1828
01:41:06,184 --> 01:41:08,186
Check out how luxurious our life is.

1829
01:41:08,186 --> 01:41:09,395
Wang Ying, it's none of your business.

1830
01:41:09,396 --> 01:41:11,523
Rice noodles from Chong Ren.

1831
01:41:11,523 --> 01:41:13,024
Dried bamboo shoots from Lin An.

1832
01:41:13,024 --> 01:41:14,650
Prawns from Xiang Shan.

1833
01:41:16,027 --> 01:41:18,195
This bowl of Sheng Zhou noodles

1834
01:41:18,196 --> 01:41:19,822
is worth more than
those sold in five star hotels.

1835
01:41:20,407 --> 01:41:21,908
How luxurious is that?

1836
01:41:21,908 --> 01:41:23,326
So freaking luxurious.

1837
01:41:28,832 --> 01:41:29,916
Dai, he...

1838
01:41:31,334 --> 01:41:34,211
can barely make it home
for dinner five times a year.

1839
01:41:36,214 --> 01:41:37,548
Next month,

1840
01:41:37,549 --> 01:41:39,217
he'll have a spine surgery.

1841
01:41:39,843 --> 01:41:41,553
There's a chance he may become paralysed.

1842
01:41:46,349 --> 01:41:47,558
Let me ask you,

1843
01:41:48,560 --> 01:41:49,769
if someone like him...

1844
01:41:56,276 --> 01:41:57,694
even someone like him is...

1845
01:42:03,700 --> 01:42:05,785
Then who else

1846
01:42:07,287 --> 01:42:10,290
will be there for the team in tough times.

1847
01:42:12,709 --> 01:42:13,918
Who else

1848
01:42:14,294 --> 01:42:17,213
is willing to be the next Dai Min jia?

1849
01:42:31,770 --> 01:42:36,065
Anesthetic accidental, brain hernia, death,
please confirm all risks above.

1850
01:42:39,944 --> 01:42:44,444
Say dad, see you later.

1851
01:43:06,680 --> 01:43:08,598
He's fine. The surgery went well.

1852
01:43:27,450 --> 01:43:31,829
(Xiamen, Rehabilitation Center)

1853
01:43:44,843 --> 01:43:45,969
Da Li?

1854
01:43:48,847 --> 01:43:51,057
Mi called me back to the Bureau last week.

1855
01:43:51,975 --> 01:43:54,185
He said you were quitting?

1856
01:43:55,186 --> 01:43:56,395
You want to persuade me too?

1857
01:43:58,523 --> 01:43:59,899
You know, Dai.

1858
01:44:01,025 --> 01:44:02,526
I really envy you.

1859
01:44:03,403 --> 01:44:04,404
Envy me?

1860
01:44:05,530 --> 01:44:06,531
Yes.

1861
01:44:08,032 --> 01:44:09,700
What's to envy?

1862
01:44:10,910 --> 01:44:12,912
We are both defeated generals.

1863
01:44:12,912 --> 01:44:14,413
Ended up in the same situation.

1864
01:44:14,414 --> 01:44:15,331
Not the same.

1865
01:44:15,832 --> 01:44:17,708
If I get another chance,
I'd never back off.

1866
01:44:22,338 --> 01:44:24,340
You said it well when you were appointed.

1867
01:44:25,550 --> 01:44:27,051
Faith dictates everything.

1868
01:44:27,927 --> 01:44:28,844
And what,

1869
01:44:28,845 --> 01:44:30,221
why don't you believe now?

1870
01:44:32,348 --> 01:44:34,058
If winning is that easy,

1871
01:44:34,934 --> 01:44:36,769
what meaning would it have?

1872
01:44:38,688 --> 01:44:40,398
What if I never get
to win for the rest of my life?

1873
01:44:40,398 --> 01:44:43,067
Then you'll close your eyes
knowing you did your best.

1874
01:44:49,574 --> 01:44:50,575
Losing is terrible.

1875
01:44:50,909 --> 01:44:52,410
But is it as terrible as death?

1876
01:44:53,286 --> 01:44:54,704
You could've died in that surgery.

1877
01:44:55,580 --> 01:44:57,540
You don't even fear death,
what else can scare you?

1878
01:45:04,589 --> 01:45:05,715
Mr. Xia.

1879
01:45:10,929 --> 01:45:12,096
Your article about Dai Min jia

1880
01:45:12,096 --> 01:45:13,222
was very well written.

1881
01:45:13,723 --> 01:45:15,057
So you understand me.

1882
01:45:15,058 --> 01:45:16,225
I'm really touched.

1883
01:45:16,810 --> 01:45:17,727
I do.

1884
01:45:18,561 --> 01:45:20,771
I've been reporting sports
for so many years.

1885
01:45:21,940 --> 01:45:23,066
My driving motivation

1886
01:45:23,566 --> 01:45:25,067
is to tell the truth,

1887
01:45:25,068 --> 01:45:28,071
and keep those bad actors
from trampling our national sport.

1888
01:45:28,071 --> 01:45:29,072
You are so right.

1889
01:45:30,573 --> 01:45:31,657
Right, Coach Ni.

1890
01:45:31,658 --> 01:45:33,159
You just mentioned

1891
01:45:33,159 --> 01:45:34,910
something about your team.

1892
01:45:34,911 --> 01:45:36,078
What is it about?

1893
01:45:36,788 --> 01:45:37,955
Is it big?

1894
01:45:40,959 --> 01:45:42,794
Assault and battery big enough?

1895
01:45:44,671 --> 01:45:46,172
No!

1896
01:45:46,172 --> 01:45:47,423
Didn't the team disband?

1897
01:45:47,423 --> 01:45:48,465
There,

1898
01:45:48,466 --> 01:45:50,301
we'll talk inside.

1899
01:45:50,301 --> 01:45:51,093
Get in.

1900
01:45:53,972 --> 01:45:56,182
How dare you!

1901
01:45:58,309 --> 01:45:59,310
Can't hit the ball right.

1902
01:45:59,310 --> 01:46:00,311
Now you hit people?

1903
01:46:01,312 --> 01:46:02,771
Do you know what situation you're in?

1904
01:46:03,940 --> 01:46:05,149
Don't you think the ping pong team

1905
01:46:05,942 --> 01:46:08,819
is in enough trouble as it is?

1906
01:46:08,820 --> 01:46:10,029
Idiots!

1907
01:46:15,785 --> 01:46:17,536
Thanks for being my scapegoat.

1908
01:46:17,537 --> 01:46:19,163
Don't flatter yourself!

1909
01:46:19,163 --> 01:46:20,164
I didn't do it for you.

1910
01:46:20,540 --> 01:46:21,165
Get away from me.

1911
01:46:21,165 --> 01:46:22,541
I hate the smell of your hair wax.

1912
01:46:23,167 --> 01:46:24,668
Regarding the loss in Gothenburg,

1913
01:46:24,878 --> 01:46:25,837
our work in the past two years

1914
01:46:26,170 --> 01:46:27,963
was a failure.

1915
01:46:32,677 --> 01:46:35,346
Mr. Qi and I wanted to help you.

1916
01:46:36,681 --> 01:46:38,974
But there were too many opposing voices.

1917
01:46:40,059 --> 01:46:42,019
The Bureau fought in meetings for two days,

1918
01:46:42,812 --> 01:46:44,313
and the leadership finally decided

1919
01:46:44,898 --> 01:46:46,691
to survey the team members

1920
01:46:47,191 --> 01:46:49,401
and give them the power to select

1921
01:46:50,403 --> 01:46:51,529
the next coaching team.

1922
01:46:57,911 --> 01:46:58,912

1945
01:47:24,687 --> 01:47:26,271
I've decided where to go.

(Harbin, Heilongjiang)

1947
01:47:36,783 --> 01:47:37,784

1950
01:47:56,427 --> 01:47:57,428
Only talk.

1951
01:47:58,096 --> 01:47:59,305
No result.

1952
01:48:00,932 --> 01:48:02,433
In two years,

1953
01:48:02,433 --> 01:48:03,725

our home court.

1955
01:48:08,147 --> 01:48:09,439
I won't say anything.

1956
01:48:10,274 --> 01:48:11,275
You lead.

1957
01:48:13,653 --> 01:48:15,571
Can we take the Swaythling?

1958
01:48:15,571 --> 01:48:16,405
Yes!

1959
01:48:16,906 --> 01:48:18,073
Can't hear you!

1960
01:48:18,074 --> 01:48:19,658

1964

From Tianjin Stadium,

1965
01:48:26,290 --> 01:48:29,918
the 43rd World Table Tennis Championships.

1966
01:48:30,336 --> 01:48:32,963
The scale of the game is unprecedented.

1967
01:48:32,964 --> 01:48:35,800
Teams from 124 countries
and regions around the globe,

1968
01:48:35,800 --> 01:48:38,803
one thousand and two hundred
reporters from all over the world,

1969
01:48:38,803 --> 01:48:41,305
top 100 table tennis players,

1970
01:48:41,305 --> 01:48:42,973
have all gathered in Tianjin.

1971
01:48:43,933 --> 01:48:46,477
Now we're witnessing
the men's group competitions.

1972
01:48:46,477 --> 01:48:50,022
In the past two years,
the Chinese men's team has prepared through hardship.

1973
01:48:50,023 --> 01:48:52,817
They are ready
for this battle here in Tianjin,

1974
01:48:52,817 --> 01:48:54,485
to win back the Swaythling Cup.

1975
01:48:57,447 --> 01:48:58,322
3 to 0!

1976
01:48:58,322 --> 01:49:00,198
Huang Zhao defeated his old rival Saive

1977
01:49:00,199 --> 01:49:01,825
and led his team to victory
against the Red Devil Belgium team.

1978
01:49:02,160 --> 01:49:04,704
Hou Zhuoxiang's pen hold drives
are near perfection.

1979
01:49:04,704 --> 01:49:06,163
Another 3 to 0.

1980
01:49:06,164 --> 01:49:07,665
Overcoming great difficulties,
the Chinese team

1981
01:49:07,665 --> 01:49:10,209
will face their old rival the Korean team.

1982
01:49:10,543 --> 01:49:12,836
The Chinese team tied 2 to 2
with the Korean team.

1983
01:49:12,837 --> 01:49:13,963
Huang Zhao did not let us down.

1984
01:49:13,963 --> 01:49:15,214
He greatly defeated Yoo Namkyu.

1985
01:49:16,340 --> 01:49:18,216
With doctors help,

1986
01:49:18,217 --> 01:49:19,676
Bai Minhe recovered
from his shoulder injuries

1987
01:49:19,677 --> 01:49:21,178
less than a month ago.

1988
01:49:21,179 --> 01:49:23,848
He's defeated
by Kim Taeksoo and Yoo Namkyu.

1989
01:49:27,977 --> 01:49:30,688
Young player Dong Shuai
has gradually exhibited some maturity

1990
01:49:30,688 --> 01:49:32,022
and easily defeated Lee Chulsung.

1991
01:49:32,523 --> 01:49:34,691
If the Chinese team wants to
enter the finals on their home court,

1992
01:49:34,692 --> 01:49:36,985
Huang Zhao will have to
take Kim Taeksoo in the fifth set.

1993
01:49:38,196 --> 01:49:39,030
Great shot!

1994
01:49:39,030 --> 01:49:40,990
The Chinese team has
once again entered the finals!

1995
01:49:40,990 --> 01:49:42,408
Again, we are one step away

1996
01:49:42,408 --> 01:49:43,909
from the Swaythling cup!

1998
01:49:44,535 --> 01:49:46,495

the Corbillon Cup.

1999
01:49:46,496 --> 01:49:49,373
Will the men's team retake the Swaythling Cup?

You can interview him.

2003
01:49:54,003 --> 01:49:55,212
Go to your dad.

2004
01:49:55,213 --> 01:49:56,339
Don't get rained on.

2005
01:49:56,339 --> 01:49:57,381
My son.

2006
01:49:57,381 --> 01:49:58,173
Come here.

2007
01:49:59,592 --> 01:50:00,551
Look at you all soaked.

2008
01:50:00,551 --> 01:50:02,052
Mom, I hate rain.

2009
01:50:02,053 --> 01:50:03,345
No you don't.

2010
01:50:03,346 --> 01:50:04,388
Water is your dad's lucky element.

2011
01:50:04,388 --> 01:50:05,847
It will bless him with a victory today.

2012
01:50:08,559 --> 01:50:09,601
This time,

2013
01:50:10,269 --> 01:50:11,561
what would you say to me?

2014
01:50:18,194 --> 01:50:19,403
Actually, before today,

2015
01:50:20,696 --> 01:50:22,572
I always secretly wanted you to lose.

2016
01:50:23,366 --> 01:50:24,575
It seemed like the only way

2017
01:50:24,575 --> 01:50:26,910
for you to have more time
to be with me and our son.

2018
01:50:29,413 --> 01:50:30,455
But today,

2019
01:50:31,958 --> 01:50:33,584
I really do think you'll win.

2020
01:50:37,255 --> 01:50:38,089
Give dad a kiss.

2021
01:50:41,759 --> 01:50:43,218
(May 8th at 6:30 PM)

2022
01:50:43,219 --> 01:50:44,261
Excuse me.
(May 8th at 4:30 PM)

2023
01:50:44,262 --> 01:50:45,888
(May 8th at 4:30 PM)

2024
01:50:47,598 --> 01:50:49,474
Coach, he is late again!

2025
01:50:49,475 --> 01:50:51,101
The 11th row!

2026
01:51:07,827 --> 01:51:08,953
CCTV.

2027
01:51:08,953 --> 01:51:10,287
TJTV.

2028
01:51:10,746 --> 01:51:13,749
This is the 43rd World Table Tennis Championships Final.
(May 8th at 7:59 PM)

2029
01:51:13,749 --> 01:51:15,459
The Chinese team against the Swedish team.
(May 8th at 7:59 PM)

2030
01:51:15,459 --> 01:51:16,835
(May 8th at 7:59 PM)

2031
01:51:16,836 --> 01:51:17,795
First set.
(May 8th at 8:00 PM)

2032
01:51:17,795 --> 01:51:18,754
First game.
(May 8th at 8:00 PM)

2033
01:51:18,754 --> 01:51:20,297
Huang Zhao vs Waldner.
(May 8th at 8:00 PM)

2034
01:51:20,298 --> 01:51:21,424
(May 8th at 8:00 PM)

2035
01:51:31,601 --> 01:51:32,602
Too bad.

2036
01:51:35,438 --> 01:51:37,148
There are many top notch players worldwide,

2037
01:51:37,523 --> 01:51:38,941
but whether in terms of
technique, experience,

2038
01:51:38,941 --> 01:51:40,108
or psychology,

2039
01:51:40,109 --> 01:51:42,444
Waldner is the best in all aspects.

2040
01:51:49,952 --> 01:51:50,494
Good hit!

2041
01:51:51,537 --> 01:51:52,454
In past seven years,

2042
01:51:52,455 --> 01:51:54,832
Waldner ranked first in the world 14 times.

2043
01:51:54,832 --> 01:51:55,707
He's the only player

2044
01:51:55,708 --> 01:51:57,960
who has won gold
in the Olympic, WTTC, and the World Cup,

2045
01:51:57,960 --> 01:51:59,962
all three top games.

2046
01:52:05,468 --> 01:52:07,470
This backhand cross court was beautiful.

2047
01:52:12,016 --> 01:52:14,560
Huang lost 3 points to Waldner in a row.

2048
01:52:14,560 --> 01:52:16,520
The first set
in a world class championship is tough.

2049
01:52:16,520 --> 01:52:19,022
It's a great challenge
to the psyche of the player.

2050
01:52:23,194 --> 01:52:24,028
Good shot!

2051
01:52:24,362 --> 01:52:25,529
Huang scored with his serve!

2052
01:52:26,405 --> 01:52:28,365
It is apparent that the coaching team

2053
01:52:28,366 --> 01:52:29,909
has prepared tirelessly
for the opening game.

2054
01:52:29,909 --> 01:52:32,828
Huang Zhao lost to Persson
in the thrid set two years ago.

2055
01:52:32,828 --> 01:52:34,913
This time he plays
against Waldner in the first set.

2056
01:52:34,914 --> 01:52:36,832
It's a huge responsibility.

2057
01:52:42,546 --> 01:52:43,505
21 to 16.

2058
01:52:43,506 --> 01:52:45,090
Waldner won the first game.

2059
01:52:48,844 --> 01:52:49,845
Just play as you always do.

2060
01:52:49,845 --> 01:52:51,096
Not much else to say.

2061
01:52:53,015 --> 01:52:53,557
Second game.

2062
01:52:53,557 --> 01:52:55,892
Huang has grown bold,
now leading with a margin.

2063
01:53:00,231 --> 01:53:00,940
Wonderful!

2064
01:53:01,357 --> 01:53:02,066
What happened?

2065
01:53:02,066 --> 01:53:03,442
Huang signaled
that the ball has touched the net.

2066
01:53:07,697 --> 01:53:09,740
The referee is letting Waldner serve again.

2067
01:53:10,074 --> 01:53:12,201
This was a close call.

2068
01:53:12,201 --> 01:53:12,951
It was supposed to be Huang's point.

2069
01:53:12,952 --> 01:53:14,453
But he voluntarily gave it up.

2070
01:53:14,453 --> 01:53:17,038
Our athlete's ethics are impressive.

2071
01:53:18,457 --> 01:53:19,791
Huang missed the return serve.

2072
01:53:19,792 --> 01:53:20,918
Waldner scores.

2073
01:53:21,794 --> 01:53:22,961
Together with the point that was given up,

2074
01:53:22,962 --> 01:53:24,964
2 points have been wasted.

2075
01:53:28,259 --> 01:53:29,927
Huang's serve.

2076
01:53:29,927 --> 01:53:31,553
He will need to take advantage of it.

2077
01:53:33,097 --> 01:53:34,598
Serve and backhand block!

2078
01:53:34,598 --> 01:53:35,432
Nice!

2079
01:53:36,309 --> 01:53:37,310
Backhand block again.

2080
01:53:37,727 --> 01:53:38,769
The ball didn't cross the line.

2081
01:53:41,772 --> 01:53:44,566
Looks like Huang
is still affected by that lost point.

2082
01:53:44,567 --> 01:53:46,318
Waldner has taken the chance
and scored several.

2083
01:53:46,319 --> 01:53:48,446
One must keep calm in a big game like this.

2084
01:53:53,743 --> 01:53:55,119
Beautiful, net cord ball!

2085
01:53:55,119 --> 01:53:56,453
This was pure luck.

2086
01:53:56,454 --> 01:53:58,581
Luck has finally come to our side.

2087
01:53:59,957 --> 01:54:01,959
This is the third game, the deciding game.

2088
01:54:01,959 --> 01:54:02,960
From the 8 to 8 tie,

2089
01:54:02,960 --> 01:54:04,836
they tied at 9, 10, 11,

2090
01:54:04,837 --> 01:54:06,755
12, 13, 14,

2091
01:54:06,756 --> 01:54:08,466
16, 17, and 18.

2092
01:54:08,466 --> 01:54:10,759
Now Huang leads 19 to 18.

2093
01:54:10,760 --> 01:54:11,594
Waldner scores.

2094
01:54:11,594 --> 01:54:13,137
It's tied 19 to 19 again.

2095
01:54:13,137 --> 01:54:14,596
The game is so exciting,

2096
01:54:14,597 --> 01:54:15,973
so exhilarating!

2097
01:54:16,682 --> 01:54:17,974
19 tie.

2098
01:54:17,975 --> 01:54:19,768
After 11 ties within one game,

2099
01:54:19,769 --> 01:54:22,313
we come to the key moment.

2100
01:54:22,313 --> 01:54:23,439
Waldner serves.

2101
01:54:25,441 --> 01:54:26,817
Huang blocks with backhand.

2102
01:54:30,321 --> 01:54:31,322
The ball is out.

2103
01:54:33,032 --> 01:54:34,116
20 to 19.

2104
01:54:34,116 --> 01:54:36,159
It's Waldner leading now.

2105
01:54:37,161 --> 01:54:39,454
The match is so exciting
I can barely breath.

2106
01:54:39,455 --> 01:54:41,206
There are 7 thousand seats
in the Tianjin stadium,

2107
01:54:41,207 --> 01:54:43,542
but it's so quiet, one can hear a pin drop.

2108
01:54:44,543 --> 01:54:46,044
I's Wadlner's serve again.

2109
01:54:46,045 --> 01:54:47,629
Huang plays a transitional drive.

2110
01:54:55,513 --> 01:54:57,181
Waldner attacks cross court.

2111
01:55:06,816 --> 01:55:07,817
The shot worked.

2112
01:55:09,026 --> 01:55:10,193
What a pity.

2113
01:55:10,194 --> 01:55:12,696
Huang was two points away from victory.

2114
01:55:13,531 --> 01:55:15,407
The Chinese team is near the precipice.

2115
01:55:15,408 --> 01:55:17,201
If Bai Minhe loses the next set,

2116
01:55:17,201 --> 01:55:18,869
the game is basically over.

2117
01:55:28,087 --> 01:55:29,213
Tie again.

2118
01:55:29,213 --> 01:55:31,340
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 ties.

2119
01:55:31,340 --> 01:55:33,050
Last set there were 9 consecutive ties.

2120
01:55:33,050 --> 01:55:35,719
This set starts with 5.

2121
01:55:37,888 --> 01:55:39,514
Persson stands 1.88 meters tall.

2122
01:55:39,515 --> 01:55:41,058
Against him,
Bai can't afford to turn to his side.

2123
01:55:41,058 --> 01:55:42,392
His hands are tied.

2124
01:55:50,734 --> 01:55:52,360
Good hit! 6 to 5.

2125
01:55:53,696 --> 01:55:55,781
This is the first point scored
after the 5th tie.

2126
01:56:03,205 --> 01:56:04,372
20-20 tie.

2127
01:56:09,587 --> 01:56:10,754
21-21 tie.

2128
01:56:15,092 --> 01:56:15,967
22-22 tie.

2129
01:56:15,968 --> 01:56:17,552
The game is entering the white-hot stage.

2130
01:56:18,888 --> 01:56:20,723
Persson has got the game point.

2131
01:56:21,891 --> 01:56:22,933
Serve and attack.

2132
01:56:22,933 --> 01:56:24,100
Bai returns.

2133
01:56:24,101 --> 01:56:25,102
The ball is out.

2134
01:56:25,936 --> 01:56:27,437
22 to 24.

2135
01:56:27,438 --> 01:56:29,148
It's like the third game
of Huang Zhao's first set.

2136
01:56:29,565 --> 01:56:31,233
Bai Minhe lost the first game

2137
01:56:31,233 --> 01:56:32,776
of the second set by 2 points.

2138
01:56:34,069 --> 01:56:35,153
CCTV.

2139
01:56:35,154 --> 01:56:38,240
This is the final
of the 43rd World Table Tennis Championships.

2140
01:56:38,240 --> 01:56:39,783
The Chinese team is behind on set scores.

2141
01:56:40,743 --> 01:56:41,827
The second game of the second set.

2142
01:56:41,827 --> 01:56:43,829
Bai is now 4 points behind.

2143
01:56:43,829 --> 01:56:45,831
The Chinese team is nearing the precipice.

2144
01:56:45,831 --> 01:56:47,332
They are at a great disadvantage.

2145
01:56:49,668 --> 01:56:50,460
Wait.

2146
01:56:50,461 --> 01:56:52,588
What is the referee saying?

2147
01:56:57,760 --> 01:56:58,969
Bai Minhe, what's up with you?

2148
01:57:01,180 --> 01:57:02,764
Stop it!
His shoulder injury is still recovering.

2149
01:57:02,765 --> 01:57:04,349
What's wrong with Bai?

2150
01:57:04,767 --> 01:57:05,976
Bai Minhe!

2151
01:57:06,852 --> 01:57:07,686
Go!

2152
01:57:08,187 --> 01:57:09,521
Bai Minhe, go!

2153
01:57:10,314 --> 01:57:13,317
Bai Minhe, go!

2154
01:57:16,320 --> 01:57:17,654
Go!

2155
01:57:36,340 --> 01:57:37,674
Loop rallies!

2156
01:57:37,675 --> 01:57:40,552
Bai has beaten Persson
with Persson's own specialty.

2157
01:57:41,303 --> 01:57:43,013
The score is now 20 to 18.

2158
01:57:43,013 --> 01:57:44,472
Bat's got the game point.

2159
01:57:45,224 --> 01:57:46,516
Good shot!

2160
01:57:51,188 --> 01:57:52,814
Bai is on a streak.

2161
01:57:52,815 --> 01:57:54,691
He has won a game back.

2162
01:57:54,692 --> 01:57:57,403
There had been
26 ties in the first two sets.

2163
01:57:57,403 --> 01:57:59,196
The game is weighing on the players.

2164
01:57:59,196 --> 01:58:00,864
Now comes the deciding game.

2165
01:58:02,324 --> 01:58:03,074
Nice!

2166
01:58:03,075 --> 01:58:04,868
21 to 16.

2167
01:58:04,868 --> 01:58:06,411
Bai won the third game,

2168
01:58:06,412 --> 01:58:08,330
leveling the playing field again.

2169
01:58:20,217 --> 01:58:21,718
The set score is 1 to 1.

2170
01:58:21,719 --> 01:58:23,721
The third set begins.

2171
01:58:23,721 --> 01:58:25,723
Karlsson from the Swedish team

2172
01:58:25,723 --> 01:58:27,433
is facing Gong Feng from China.

2173
01:58:27,433 --> 01:58:29,017
The Swedes know you play chop,

2174
01:58:29,727 --> 01:58:30,853
but they don't know you can attack.

2175
01:58:31,895 --> 01:58:34,230
You were buried for four years,
didn't play in any high-profile competitions.

2176
01:58:34,231 --> 01:58:35,565
It's all for this day.

2177
01:58:36,942 --> 01:58:37,943
Kill him dead.

2178
01:58:40,779 --> 01:58:45,279
Chen Wen, send the orders to table six, fast!
Otherwise, you take care of our son!

2179
01:58:49,580 --> 01:58:50,706
Chen Wen.

2180
01:58:50,706 --> 01:58:54,584
Chen Wen, stop staring at the TV.

2181
01:59:03,093 --> 01:59:04,552
Chen Wen!

2182
01:59:04,553 --> 01:59:06,429
Chen Wen, what the hell
are you doing there?

2183
01:59:06,805 --> 01:59:08,556
Make your mom proud!

2184
01:59:11,477 --> 01:59:12,644
Karlsson's service.

2185
01:59:12,645 --> 01:59:13,812
One stroke,

2186
01:59:13,812 --> 01:59:14,771
go long.

2187
01:59:14,772 --> 01:59:15,939
Gong fast attack,

2188
01:59:15,939 --> 01:59:16,814
good hit.

2189
01:59:19,443 --> 01:59:21,653
From the expression,
Karlsson's very surprised.

2190
01:59:22,237 --> 01:59:24,113
Gong uses forehand inverted, backhand pips.

2191
01:59:24,114 --> 01:59:25,782
His style, adding attack into chop,

2192
01:59:25,783 --> 01:59:28,118
is something Karlsson
has never seen in his career.

2193
01:59:28,118 --> 01:59:29,327
Gong's service.

2194
01:59:29,328 --> 01:59:30,579
Return serve missed.

2195
01:59:36,460 --> 01:59:37,836
Gong's service again.

2196
01:59:43,300 --> 01:59:44,467
Gong serves.

2197
01:59:45,094 --> 01:59:46,136
Karlsson missed.

2198
01:59:46,136 --> 01:59:47,762
Gong scored on service.

2199
01:59:47,763 --> 01:59:49,765
Karlsson looks lost.

2200
01:59:49,765 --> 01:59:51,767
Gong is like a magician.

2201
01:59:51,767 --> 01:59:54,144
4 out of the first
9 points were scored with services.

2202
01:59:54,144 --> 01:59:56,271
Every now and then we see players
encounter techniques that they just can't handle,

2203
01:59:56,271 --> 01:59:58,940
but this is an extreme case.

2204
01:59:58,941 --> 02:00:00,317
Gong's service again.

2205
02:00:00,317 --> 02:00:01,318
Out!

2206
02:00:01,318 --> 02:00:02,944
Karlsson's out again.

2207
02:00:02,945 --> 02:00:04,821
The audience are learning.

2208
02:00:04,822 --> 02:00:06,824
They yell "Out" right after Gong serves.

2209
02:00:07,199 --> 02:00:09,034
Predictably, Karlsson's out again.

2210
02:00:10,994 --> 02:00:12,704
This is getting interesting.

2211
02:00:13,539 --> 02:00:14,998
It's Gong's service again.

2212
02:00:14,998 --> 02:00:16,207
Net!

2213
02:00:16,208 --> 02:00:16,833
Damn!

2214
02:00:16,834 --> 02:00:19,044
This time the audience is yelling "net!"

2215
02:00:19,044 --> 02:00:20,837
And unsurprisingly Karlsson
has hit the net.

2216
02:00:22,715 --> 02:00:23,841
Third set, first game.

2217
02:00:23,841 --> 02:00:26,468
Gong's got the game point with 20 to 14.

2218
02:00:27,970 --> 02:00:28,845
Karlsson serves,

2219
02:00:28,846 --> 02:00:29,721
Gong chops.

2220
02:00:30,180 --> 02:00:31,681
Karlsson lost it again!

2221
02:00:37,521 --> 02:00:38,188
You know,

2222
02:00:38,188 --> 02:00:39,189
out of all these players,

2223
02:00:39,189 --> 02:00:40,523
this guy is the one

2224
02:00:40,524 --> 02:00:41,816
I have the most confidence in.

2225
02:00:42,359 --> 02:00:44,486
The most feared man

2226
02:00:44,486 --> 02:00:46,863
is the one that lives in his own world.

2227
02:00:49,825 --> 02:00:52,410
This was nothing like how we trained.

2228
02:00:52,411 --> 02:00:53,703
He's bewildering.

2229
02:00:53,704 --> 02:00:54,705
Keep chopping with no spin.

2230
02:00:54,705 --> 02:00:55,872
He's going to fall for it still.

2231
02:00:55,873 --> 02:00:57,082
Get him already!

2232
02:00:57,332 --> 02:00:59,709
Gong Feng, teach him the lesson!

2233
02:01:01,879 --> 02:01:03,088
The second game, 5 to 0.

2234
02:01:03,088 --> 02:01:04,214
Gong's ahead.

2235
02:01:04,214 --> 02:01:06,716
In the last game, Gong scored 6 points
with services alone.

2236
02:01:06,717 --> 02:01:09,052
Karlsson is claimed to be the successor
of Waldner as the future King of Ping Pong.

2237
02:01:09,052 --> 02:01:11,846
He'll have an edge
over any of our other players,

2238
02:01:11,847 --> 02:01:14,558
but Gong Feng has him completely baffled.

2239
02:01:17,728 --> 02:01:18,562
Backhand chop,

2240
02:01:18,562 --> 02:01:19,688
change to forehand.

2241
02:01:19,688 --> 02:01:20,355
Good hit!

2242
02:01:22,357 --> 02:01:24,192
Unlike any other conventional chop players,

2243
02:01:24,193 --> 02:01:26,195
Gong's true power shot is not the chop,

2244
02:01:26,195 --> 02:01:27,362
but the attack.

2245
02:01:27,362 --> 02:01:28,279
6 to 0.

2246
02:01:29,239 --> 02:01:30,240
Gong's service.

2247
02:01:30,240 --> 02:01:30,949
Score again!

2248
02:01:31,366 --> 02:01:32,575
Pride of our post office!

2249
02:01:33,076 --> 02:01:34,202
17 to 8.

2250
02:01:34,203 --> 02:01:36,580
Karlsson again lost 6 points
on return serves.

2251
02:01:36,580 --> 02:01:37,539
Gong Feng, fending.

2252
02:01:37,539 --> 02:01:39,958
He's easily fending Karlsson off today!

2253
02:01:45,881 --> 02:01:46,756
Don't pull any crap, Gong!

2254
02:01:46,757 --> 02:01:47,758
Play to your advantage!

2255
02:01:50,302 --> 02:01:51,261
What did he just do?

2256
02:01:51,970 --> 02:01:52,804
Can't you tell?

2257
02:01:52,805 --> 02:01:53,806
He's got it.

2258
02:01:53,806 --> 02:01:55,057
Score is now 20 to 11.

2259
02:01:55,057 --> 02:01:57,434
Gong's got the match point.
A win is in the cards.

2260
02:01:57,434 --> 02:02:00,645
This is a match
that will end up in the history books.

2261
02:02:00,646 --> 02:02:01,647
The success of Gong Feng

2262
02:02:01,647 --> 02:02:04,775
wouldn't happen
without our talent building system,

2263
02:02:04,775 --> 02:02:08,445
and the numerous unsung heroes
devoting themselves.

2264
02:02:27,756 --> 02:02:29,966
Honey!

2265
02:02:30,467 --> 02:02:31,301
What is it?

2266
02:02:31,969 --> 02:02:32,761
Well, I heard that,

2267
02:02:33,178 --> 02:02:35,471
Chen Wen used to be
a table tennis player before.

2268
02:02:37,140 --> 02:02:39,642
Honey I won too!

2269
02:02:44,815 --> 02:02:45,649
Bai.

2270
02:02:46,108 --> 02:02:48,819
I enjoyed each of our games.

2271
02:02:48,819 --> 02:02:52,197
I hope our games tonight
will stand the test of time.

2272
02:02:54,324 --> 02:02:55,533
They will.

2273
02:03:06,461 --> 02:03:08,671
21 to 17.

2274
02:03:08,672 --> 02:03:11,675
Waldner won against
Bai Minhe, 2 games to 1.

2275
02:03:11,884 --> 02:03:14,720
The last set will start
in five minutes after break.

2276
02:03:14,720 --> 02:03:16,221
Give us the room.

2277
02:03:16,221 --> 02:03:18,473
Huang Zhao from China
against Persson from Sweden.

2278
02:03:27,399 --> 02:03:29,484
The final match is about to start.

2279
02:03:29,484 --> 02:03:31,903
We have been waiting for
this moment for two whole years.

2280
02:03:58,722 --> 02:03:59,556
Serve attack,

2281
02:03:59,556 --> 02:04:00,390
one more hit!

2282
02:04:00,390 --> 02:04:01,099
Good shot!

2283
02:04:01,099 --> 02:04:02,517
Huang Zhao scores again!

2284
02:04:03,060 --> 02:04:04,394
A chance for Huang Zhao!

2285
02:04:04,686 --> 02:04:06,270
What a pity! It's out.

2286
02:04:07,689 --> 02:04:08,940
Persson scored three points in a row.

2287
02:04:08,941 --> 02:04:10,359
Huang Zhao is at a disadvantage.

2288
02:04:10,359 --> 02:04:12,569
That was a good chance.
But Persson missed it.

2289
02:04:12,569 --> 02:04:13,695
It is a lucky one!

2290
02:04:13,695 --> 02:04:15,029
Huang Zhao seventh hit!

2291
02:04:15,030 --> 02:04:16,239
Huang Zhao eighth hit!

2292
02:04:16,239 --> 02:04:16,948
Yes!

2293
02:04:28,085 --> 02:04:29,795
What's the score now?

2294
02:04:29,795 --> 02:04:31,421
Why don't you go watch it yourself?

2295
02:04:46,770 --> 02:04:47,896
Backhand cross court.

2296
02:04:47,896 --> 02:04:48,813
What a pity.

2297
02:04:49,272 --> 02:04:50,231
That was a great chance,

2298
02:04:50,232 --> 02:04:51,149
but it's lost.

2299
02:04:53,443 --> 02:04:54,819
Persson is a giant.

2300
02:04:54,820 --> 02:04:56,071
One step forward

2301
02:04:56,071 --> 02:04:57,572
and the ball would land near the net.

2302
02:04:58,323 --> 02:04:59,449
Persson scored twice in a row.

2303
02:05:04,162 --> 02:05:05,246
What's the score?

2304
02:05:06,456 --> 02:05:08,583
Well, how bad is our son losing?

2305
02:05:08,583 --> 02:05:10,167
Why are you crying?

2306
02:05:10,168 --> 02:05:12,128
Which game is it now?

2307
02:05:12,129 --> 02:05:13,296
What's the score?

2308
02:05:13,296 --> 02:05:15,172
Since the very beginning,

2309
02:05:15,173 --> 02:05:17,175
our son has not been behind!

2310
02:05:17,175 --> 02:05:19,093
One more point to win!

2311
02:05:21,972 --> 02:05:23,264
Sal

2312
02:05:24,307 --> 02:05:25,474
20 to 10.

2313
02:05:25,475 --> 02:05:26,601
Victory is in sight.

2314
02:05:26,601 --> 02:05:27,685
One more point for the Chinese team,

2315
02:05:27,686 --> 02:05:28,812
then the match will be over!

2316
02:05:40,699 --> 02:05:42,826
The score is now 20 to 10.

2317
02:05:42,826 --> 02:05:43,827
But be patient.

2318
02:05:43,827 --> 02:05:44,994
Before someone reaches 21,

2319
02:05:44,995 --> 02:05:46,538
the game is still on.

2320
02:05:47,330 --> 02:05:48,706
Persson's turn to serve,

2321
02:05:48,707 --> 02:05:49,958
10 to 20.

2322
02:05:50,542 --> 02:05:52,210
Huang Zhao's return didn't pass.

2323
02:05:54,004 --> 02:05:54,838
Persson serves.

2324
02:05:54,838 --> 02:05:55,964
11 to 20.

2325
02:05:56,548 --> 02:05:57,715
Two years ago, in Gothenburg,

2326
02:05:57,716 --> 02:05:59,467
Huang lost to Persson.

2327
02:05:59,468 --> 02:06:01,553
Today, there are 10 match points
for him to avenge himself.

2328
02:06:02,679 --> 02:06:04,222
Don't rush, Huang!

2329
02:06:06,016 --> 02:06:07,475
Huang pushes.

2330
02:06:07,476 --> 02:06:08,477
Persson hits a straight line.

2331
02:06:08,477 --> 02:06:09,352
Nice one.

2332
02:06:09,352 --> 02:06:10,686
12 to 20.

2333
02:06:10,687 --> 02:06:12,480
In the final game of the first set,

2334
02:06:12,481 --> 02:06:15,525
Huang was surpassed by Waldy 19 to 18.

2335
02:06:15,525 --> 02:06:18,694
Now his psyche is being tested again.

2336
02:06:18,695 --> 02:06:19,737
In a ping pong game,
not one point comes easily.

2337
02:06:19,738 --> 02:06:21,156
In a ping pong game,
not one point comes easily.

2338
02:06:21,156 --> 02:06:23,533
Huang deliberately slowed his pace down
to stablize.

2339
02:06:25,660 --> 02:06:26,535
Persson's service.

2340
02:06:27,204 --> 02:06:28,205
Huang pushes.

2341
02:06:28,705 --> 02:06:30,415
Persson attacks twice in a row.

2342
02:06:30,415 --> 02:06:31,541
13 to 20.

2343
02:06:35,212 --> 02:06:36,004
Huang's return

2344
02:06:36,004 --> 02:06:37,213
didn't pass again.

2345
02:06:37,214 --> 02:06:38,506
13 to 20.

2346
02:06:38,507 --> 02:06:40,842
The more critical the moment,
the more important it is to keep calm!

2347
02:07:05,075 --> 02:07:06,534
Persson serves.

2348
02:07:14,209 --> 02:07:16,211
Huang forehand pushes a long ball.

2349
02:07:22,717 --> 02:07:24,218
Persson goes sideways.

2350
02:07:26,471 --> 02:07:27,597
One attacking hit.

2351
02:07:31,434 --> 02:07:33,561
Huang backhand around the table corner.

2352
02:07:36,565 --> 02:07:38,775
Persson returns, not a good shot.

2353
02:07:42,571 --> 02:07:43,947
Huang Zhao is back.

2354
02:07:44,573 --> 02:07:46,449
Another shot.

2355
02:07:47,951 --> 02:07:49,285
This is his killer technique.

2356
02:07:49,286 --> 02:07:50,787
Forehand fast attack!

2357
02:08:01,173 --> 02:08:03,466
Beautiful!

2358
02:08:03,466 --> 02:08:04,967
What a great victory!

2359
02:08:04,968 --> 02:08:06,678
What a triumph!

2360
02:08:06,678 --> 02:08:09,806
Huang defeated Persson 2 to 0.

2361
02:08:09,806 --> 02:08:12,099
The Chinese team has defeated
the Swedish team

2362
02:08:12,100 --> 02:08:14,519
with 3 to 2 in today's match.

2363
02:08:14,519 --> 02:08:15,937
After eight years,

2364
02:08:15,937 --> 02:08:18,189
through the hard work of generations
of Chinese ping pong players,

2365
02:08:18,190 --> 02:08:21,276
the Chinese men's ping pong team
has returned to the top

2366
02:08:21,276 --> 02:08:25,321
and won the Swaythling Cup
for the 11th time!

2367
02:08:26,281 --> 02:08:27,699
Since the establishment of the PRC,

2368
02:08:27,699 --> 02:08:29,951
with great support from the Party
and the country,

2369
02:08:29,951 --> 02:08:33,537
the Chinese ping pong team grew
from weak to strong.

2370
02:08:33,538 --> 02:08:35,831
The victory belongs
not only to Chinese ping pong,

2371
02:08:35,832 --> 02:08:38,835
but also the whole nation.

2372
02:08:54,851 --> 02:08:55,977
Next question.

2373
02:08:58,396 --> 02:08:59,397
Here, please.

2374
02:08:59,981 --> 02:09:00,523
Here, please.

2375
02:09:00,523 --> 02:09:01,815
Hello Huang Zhao.

2376
02:09:01,816 --> 02:09:03,317
The whole world wants to know.

2377
02:09:03,318 --> 02:09:04,527
Before the fifth set,

2378
02:09:04,527 --> 02:09:06,695
what did Coach Dai say to you?

2379
02:09:11,201 --> 02:09:12,535
What did I say?

2380
02:09:20,543 --> 02:09:22,211
For all these years,

2381
02:09:27,926 --> 02:09:29,719
we got up at 6:10 in the morning.

2382
02:09:32,555 --> 02:09:34,890
We trained when the Swedes
were having breakfast.

2383
02:09:37,102 --> 02:09:39,771
We trained when the Swedes
were having afternoon tea.

2384
02:09:41,773 --> 02:09:43,775
When the Swedes go to trips,

2385
02:09:43,775 --> 02:09:46,277
to vacation, to ski,

2386
02:09:46,903 --> 02:09:48,696
we trained.

2387
02:09:50,573 --> 02:09:52,950
Maybe they trained a thousand hours.

2388
02:09:54,703 --> 02:09:57,205
But we trained ten thousand hours.

2389
02:10:00,208 --> 02:10:03,711
I've been to so many countries and cities.

2390
02:10:05,714 --> 02:10:07,549
The Chinese

2391
02:10:08,925 --> 02:10:10,426
are the most diligent people.

2392
02:10:10,427 --> 02:10:11,219
Keep going!

2393
02:10:11,219 --> 02:10:12,303
Go for it!

2394
02:10:12,304 --> 02:10:13,305
Keep up!

2395
02:10:13,305 --> 02:10:14,806
Don't stop!

2396
02:10:14,806 --> 02:10:16,265
You two, see how Bat's doing!

2397
02:10:16,266 --> 02:10:16,891
Speed up!

2398
02:10:17,600 --> 02:10:18,976
Undoubtedly.

2399
02:10:23,732 --> 02:10:25,066
I was wrong.

2400
02:10:25,317 --> 02:10:26,776
Your opponents

2401
02:10:27,569 --> 02:10:29,070
are not them.

2402
02:10:31,781 --> 02:10:33,449
Nobody lives forever.

2403
02:10:33,950 --> 02:10:35,326
But today,

2404
02:10:35,327 --> 02:10:37,579
what you did tonight

2405
02:10:39,080 --> 02:10:40,456
will make a difference

2406
02:10:41,833 --> 02:10:43,584
for the people after you.

2407
02:10:48,298 --> 02:10:49,799
Win or lose

2408
02:10:51,259 --> 02:10:52,343
is not important.

2409
02:10:53,678 --> 02:10:54,679
Forget all that.

2410
02:10:55,680 --> 02:10:56,806
Go enjoy the game.

2411
02:11:33,343 --> 02:11:34,969
A question for the youngest player.

2412
02:11:34,969 --> 02:11:36,178
You've trained so hard for so long,

2413
02:11:36,179 --> 02:11:37,722
but didn't have a chance
to stand on the court in the final.

2414
02:11:37,722 --> 02:11:39,348
Do you have anything to say?

2415
02:11:41,559 --> 02:11:43,185
Things are just getting started.
