Ping Pong

This show is the selected drama by NRTA

in celebration of the 70th anniversary of the PRC,

and was funded under the 2019 Art Creation of Hubei.

Episode 30

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

You got to eat it now.

Did you manage to get a date with Wang Si Heng from the English Department?

When the school started two days ago,

I saw her at the freshmen reception.

Stop mentioning about it.

I couldn't even get her phone number.

She said that she doesn't have a phone.

You should ask her about her name.

She definitely has a name, right?

You talked about the freshman reception just now, right?

Xu Tan.

You must have seen Wang Si Heng, right?

Who is she?

I asked you to come all the way here

to eat with my friends.

Why are you so quiet?

Do you want to listen to the Two-people Rotation?

Forget it.

He's a cultured man.

He's not a chatterbox like you.

Let's eat.

Let's eat.

Let's eat.

Is he the best ping pong player now?

I think so.

Yu Ke Nan

I think

even Ye Zhen Xin and Chao Yang are not his match anymore.

This guy looks quite arrogant.

It doesn't matter as long as he can win.

Dummy.

Shut up.

You couldn't even get her phone number.

Just eat your food.

Xu Tan.

Where is he?

He left.

Let's just eat.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Are you just going to let Zheng Hao treat you like this?

This is nothing.

It has always been like this, right?

But he wasn't like that in the past.

Why does he...

Forget it.

What are you doing?

Nothing.

Are you serious?

Dictionary?

No.

What era are we in now?

What era?

We already have Shenzhou 8 in space now.

It's 2011.

I really want to

ask you to make pills with my cultivators.

What cultivators?

Friends who cultivate ourselves together.

You are reading about this, right?

Here. Just copy the words you want to know

and paste them here.

Then, just press 'search'.

Thank you.

What are you looking at?

I'm just going to eat.

Xu Tan.

Let's play together.

I'm not good in it.

Look at you.

It took me so long to drag you out

and you are just sitting here.

Play with us.

The five of us

can't be split into two teams.

Come on.

Okay.

Shoot the ball.

Air ball.

Xu Tan, shoot.

Shoot.

Shoot!

Go to the back.

Xu Tan.

Run.

Run.

Defend well.

Good shot.

Xu Tan.

You are so bad in this.

How about this.

Let's switch. I'll defend.

It's okay. I'll do it.

All the best.

♫ Toss the ball, blood burning ♫

♫ Every second is shining ♫

♫ I can hear the heartbeat of Ping Pong ♫

♫ Forget the pain ♫

♫ Stand up and conquer it ♫

♫ Are you ready, champion? ♫

♫ Keep sprinting ♫

♫ Trying your best just to show the world ♫

♫ Passion is my religion ♫

♫ As long as the ball doesn't touch the floor, never giving up ♫

Xu Tan.

Didn't you say just now that

you are not good in basketball?

You can play it quite well.

It has to depend on what you compare it to.

Compare to what?

Nothing.

What did you do?

Enough.

What is the meaning of this?

Enough.

It's okay.

What are you doing? We are just playing.

Why are they fighting?

Forget it.

-Don't play with them. -Stop it.

What were you doing?

They played dirty.

Why did you play with them?

Shameless!

Lin Hao Zhi.

Did you lose your mind?

Xu Tan?

I know that it's useless to say anything now.

Maybe Yu Ke Nan

has his own reasons for making that choice.

We are only humans. It's hard for us

to get everything perfect.

I don't mind that he made that decision.

If he can get good results out if it,

I'll be happy for him too.

But what I can't understand is,

why didn't he tell me about it?

It has been so long already.

But he still doesn't treat me as his friend.

Forget it. Let's not talk about it.

Do you still remember?

When we were at the regional training,

that mathematics teacher told us that

life doesn't evolve around ping pong.

But how is life without ping pong?

Just like me.

I'm very happy even without ping pong.

Now,

I'm learning English together with my girlfriend.

After she graduates,

we'll study abroad together.

I'll continue with my architecture.

Look.

Those people are envious of you.

Nothing to be envious about me.

They've never play ping pong before.

And they've never entered the national team.

You have the chance to

come out here to experience the life in the university

and take a break.

How cool is that?

I'm not here to take a break.

I'm kicked out.

By the way, don't tell other people about this.

Don't worry. My lips are sealed.

Since we've chosen to come here for a new life,

let's forget about the past.

Hao Zhi.

This is your friend from the national team, right?

National team?

Xu Tan.

Come, brother.

Drink some water.

Take it.

Didn't you say that you don't play anymore?

I haven't played it in a long time.

But you are here now.

My hand is itchy for a game.

Come, let's play.

What is it? Are you looking down on me?

Xu Tan. That's paddle must be left behind by someone.

Do you want to change into another paddle?

Xu Tan.

You've improved so much.

When will Wang Si Heng come?

This is so embarrassing.

Si Heng.

You are here.

Why are you here?

I just happened to pass by.

Come.

Let me introduce my friend, Xu Tan, to you.

Hello.

I am Wang Si Heng.

We met each other during the registration.

You rejected my offer to lead you the way during that rainy day.

So?

So, I think that you are very good in ping pong.

As the manager of the school team,

I want to invite you to join our team.

I'm sorry.

Why?

You can play so well.

It's a pity for you not to join us.

Here you go.

Now is not the time for us to enjoy a drink.

I told you that he wouldn't agree, right?

You shouldn't have plotted that act.

Just passing by?

Why wouldn't he agree?

What do you mean by why? He just doesn't want to.

Yes. He has to have his reasons.

Do you know something?

I don't know.

I don't know anything.

Impossible.

I'm the manager of the school team.

I can tell that he's really good.

Tell me. Who is he?

Li Chun.

Si Heng.

Xu Tan was from the national team.

Even Brother Xiao Sa knows about this.

Si Heng is my best friend. How could I keep this from her?

He's from the national team?

Why did he come to our school then?

He was stopped from training.

Stopped from training?

Why?

I don't know.

For how long?

Do you think I'm Baidu?

Let me tell you.

Don't let anyone else find out that

Xu Tan was in the national team.

Understand?

Okay.

Mr. Feng.

Something big has happened.

What happened?

A genius came to our school. His name is Xu Tan.

He's very good in ping pong.

I saw it myself.

If it's really true,

invite him to our team.

I want to do that but he rejected me.

Forget it if he didn't want to join us.

Don't force him.

I told you so much

because I want you to invite him.

We can't just let a talent pass by us.

It'll be such a pity.

I have many things to do.

Moreover,

I'm no longer young.

I can't walk that far.

You are so unreliable.

You already can't take it?

Come and find out more about our ping pong club.

Our school's ping pong team is really amazing.

Come and sign up with us.

Okay.

Amazing.

I want to join the ping pong club.

Xu Tan!

Why is it you again?

You are so reluctant to see me?

Here you go.

I'm not going to join you. Thank you.

No. Listen to me first.

Our school is one of the best in the whole country.

We are not some amateurs too.

Besides, our coaches were from team Beijing.

We train like real athletes.

So, when we compete with others,

we always win.

Team Beijing?

Who?

Mr. Feng Zhong He. Do you know him?

Table Tennis School Team

No.

How are you lately?

Is it fun in the university?

Tell me about it.

Nothing interesting.

I'll visit you at Lvteng once I have leave.

Visit me?

Do you miss jianbing

or do you miss mahua?

Visit me? I don't believe you.

By the way, Xu Tan,

I found a lead about my mother's whereabouts.

I think I'll be able to find her soon.

That's good.

Follow that lead

and you'll be able to meet your mother.

This is too sudden. I'm not ready yet.

Besides,

our training is quite packed lately.

Liu Shi.

I can't play anymore.

You have to play on my behalf.

Don't say that.

Maybe they'll ask you to come back later.

Stay strong. I'll wait for you to come back.

Yes, I'm doing quite well.

Ke Nan.

It's a call from Xu Tan.

It's okay.

How's Xu Tan in the university?

He's doing quite well.

Xu Tan.

Ever since Yu Ke Nan

became the champion of the Rotterdam WTTC,

he has

become

different now.

And Xu Tan is not here.

What's happening here?

What's wrong?

It's so painful.

Mr. Qin!

Don't touch me.

Don't move.

Stop looking at him. Continue with your training.

Continue with your training. Don't look.

Mr. Qin.

Doctor.

How is he?

It's a relapse from old wound.

You know his condition too.

He has to rest and be under observation for two days.

His old wound is not that serious.

He has to be abed for two days?

Mr. Qin.

Be honest with me. What's wrong with him?

I already told you.

Our new intern is giving him a massage now.

He'll be fine.

Relax.

Relax?

Massage?

Be strong. It'll be a little bit painful.

Yuan Ran, Medical Intern

Stone. I didn't have my phone.

Or else, I'll film you right now.

Stone.

Stone.

It's so painful.

Let me tell you.

Yuan Ran.

Let me do it.

I'll massage him instead.

Ma Chuan, come out for a while.

Go.

Okay. Turn your body to face me.

Bend the upper leg

and straighten the lower leg.

Relax.

Hold on. It'll be done soon.

Relax.

No. This...

Take a deep breath.

Why do I feel so sore?

It's normal.

It's normal to feel sore.

Bear with me.

Bear with me.

This massage is to help you relax your muscle.

Try to feel it.

Your waist is not that painful already, right?

Am I right?

Yes.

I knew it.

Okay now.

The small joints of your lumbar spine

are not in place.

I'm going to fix them for you.

Relax. You'll be fine. Okay?

Come.

It's okay.

You hear that crack, right?

Turn over and face me.

Lie down like how you did just now.

Bend the upper leg and straighten the lower leg.

Okay.

Bear with me for just a while.

It's not painful, right?

You feel better now, right?

Okay. Lie down on your back.

Lie down properly.

You can relax now.

Yes.

Deep breath.

Relax.

Yes.

Yes.

What's wrong?

♫ Look at the clusters of stars on the sky ♫

You are a little girl.

But you are so strong.

And you just go for it.

I'm sorry.

Don't misunderstand.

I didn't mean anything by that.

I just think that

you look so gentle.

But why...

Actually, you look like someone.

Who?

♫ It's so near yet so faraway ♫

Little fairy.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

That was an acupoint.

♫ To have you by my side ♫

♫ I still lack the courage to tell you loudly ♫

♫ You have always been my resolution to keep moving forward ♫

Why are you in a rush today?

You have things to do?

I want to visit Liu Shi at the infirmary.

Yu Ke Nan.

Do the last few rounds again.

What is the meaning of this?

What do you think?

What did you do just now?

Can you play like that in a real competition?

Can you win like that?

We are not in a competition.

Besides, I've completed

my training perfectly today.

Stop talking.

Are you going to play or not?

Come on.

It won't be long.

Hurry up.

You are just wasting time.

Come on.

Come.

Ke Nan.

You are looking for me?

I want to talk to you.

Just now,

I saw that you were talking. I didn't want to disturb you.

When did you learn

how to be so considerate?

You are in a bad mood.

You don't act like Yu Ke Nan.

Why are you so hesitant

now that you are a champion?

How should

a champion act?

After becoming a champion,

it's normal for you to have a change in your mentality.

You always like to

bear everything yourself.

Actually,

the coaches and members in the team

can help you too.

You should

communicate more

with Mr. Zheng.

We have different mindset.

We can't get along.

By the way, let me tell you something.

I've applied to become the coach of the first team.

Really?

I came to find Mr. Fu

to talk about this.

You have to succeed then.

Don't embarrass me.

Enough.

Stop smiling like a fool here.

Come. Let's go and eat together.

Let's go.

What do you want to eat? My treat.

Forget it. Save your money.

Keep the money for your wedding.

I have money. Just tell me what you want.

You brat.

Finally, you called.

My training is going to start soon.

Be quick about it.

Teng Biao

is going to come to the first team soon.

Congratulations, Ke Nan.

Luckily, he'll be here now.

I can be relieved now.

You don't know that

it's already stressful enough to be the team's

seeded player.

Moreover, I can't even communicate with that Zheng Hao.

It's so annoying.

If you want to go somewhere,

the whole world will open up a path for you.

That's you.

Cai Wei.

The place that I want to be right now

is by your side.

How about this?

I'm going to buy a plane ticket now

and visit you tomorrow.

Why are you still so childish?

How is this childish?

You are not coming back.

And you won't let me visit you?

I have a contract. I can't break it.

Just break it.

I'll pay them the penalty fees.

Then, you don't need to train.

You don't need to play.

You don't need to suffer.

I'll take care of you.

Ke Nan.

I'm not longer a young girl

who will be touched by this kind of declaration.

I have to get back to my training now.

Brother, help me pick that up.

Why is it him again?

Why didn't the ball hit him?

The weaklings are playing basketball.

Let's play together.

I'm sorry.

We already have enough people.

Just say it if you are afraid of losing. No need to give me an excuse.

Come on then. How many?

Ten.

If you lose, don't use this court anymore.

Mine.

Cover me.

Perfect.

Isolate me.

Defend.

Weakling.

-I'm fine. -Let me do it.

♫ Toss the ball, blood burning ♫

♫ Every second is shining ♫

♫ I can hear the heartbeat of Ping Pong ♫

Not bad.

♫ Forget the pain ♫

♫ Stand up and conquer it ♫

♫ Are you ready, champion? ♫

Nice shot!

Nice!

♫ Trying your best just to show the world ♫

♫ I'm running without restrain ♫

Beautiful!

♫ This is my stage to capture the moment of glory ♫

Defend.

Pick and roll.

♫ Trying your best just to show the world ♫

♫ Passion is my religion ♫

♫ As long as the ball doesn't touch the floor, never giving up ♫

What are you doing?

Why are you fighting?

Stop fighting!

Xu Tan is in the national team!

Will you be able to bear the consequences if you hurt him?

National team?

He has been kicked out, right?

What did you say?

Am I wrong?

The national team has gone to the Olympics.

What is he doing here if he's not kicked out?

This is too much.

Apologise to him.

Apologise?

Are you out of your mind, Wang Si Heng?

Come back!

Don't touch me!

More plasters?

I'm going to become a mummy soon.

You should be grateful.

I'm sorry.

I couldn't hold myself back just now.

Great.

Now, Yang Meng knows about it. He's a chatterbox.

The whole school will find out about this tomorrow.

And he'll be even more reluctant to join you now.

Don't be so mean.

She has already apologised.

What more do you want?

I don't understand.

Xu Tan can play so well.

Why did they stop him from training?

I don't know.

I really don't know.

I just happened to spend some time

with him in the regional training.

Xu Tan

is not a man with many words.

He likes to be considerate of others.

He must have suffered from a lot of injustice.

It's good for him to come out and take a break.

That's not good at all.

Look at him. He's not happy at all.

He's just like a lifeless mule.

Maybe

he still hasn't accepted his situation now.

When I talked to him about

Yu Ke Nan before this,

he was quite offended by it.

Yu Ke Nan?

What's wrong?

I think that

you should get up from where you fell.

You should give him some time.

Anyway, it'll be impossible that

he'll enter the school team with you.

Forget about it.

You are right.

He should get up from where he fell.

I need to drag him into the school team.

You didn't even care so much about me before this.

We have a strong friendship. We don't need that.

I'll be leaving now.

Oh yes,

the medicine.

That's my medicine.

Why are you looking at me like this?

Are you hungry or what?

Brother.

You are amazing.

Let me tell you.

That hit just now

was a fatal hit to Yang Meng.

Brother.

Were you really a ping pong player?

If even a ping pong player is like this,

what about the boxer then?

Scary.

Brother.

If you continue to be like this,

you'll be entangled with that Wang Si Heng.

Xu Tan!

She's calling for you.

Xiao Sa!

She's calling for you.

Why does she have to do that?

♫ How far is the road? ♫

♫ How high is the sky? ♫

♫ I've been through day ♫

Si Heng.

Take this medicine.

You are too kind.

This is just a minor wound.

This is not for you.

Fine. I'm just an errand boy.

What's your relationship with Xu Tan?

Ask him to treat his wound carefully.

♫ I will find the image that I belong ♫

♫ On the way ♫

I couldn't understand the lecture just now.

Forget it. Do you want to go to the canteen?

You can head there first.

I have to go to the school team.

You are too focused on the school team.

Xu Tan.

Xu Tan, are you okay now?

I'll get going now.

All the best.

All the best.

Go now.

Thank you for the medicine.

I've already used it. So, I can't give it back to you.

I heard that you like Pikachu.

Here's a power bank for you.

We all need it anyway.

Take it. Don't be shy.

I'll accept it then.

I was being too rash when I told everyone

about you being in

the national team.

I'm sorry.

Ping Pong Little Drama

Injuries

Injuries.

Injuries are very common

for an athlete.

During training,

an athlete will always repeat the same movement.

This kind of reputation

will result in the overuse

of a certain part.

Over time,

it'll become a clinical illness.

For professional athletes,

repetitive movement of a certain body part

will easily fatigue that particular body part

and in the end, wound it.

This is an inevitable result

from overworking a certain body part.

Liu Shi is a chopper.

So, he always uses his waist.

Over time,

his waist will be wounded.

Going into the competition with a wound

is a major reason

for high-level athletes

to sustain injuries.

Undeniably,

training hard and long

is the foundation of

getting good results.

But competing with a wound

has brought harm to

many athletes.
