- Episode 17 -

Next one.

Go.

What's so great about Coach Fei? Is it very impressive to be the head coach of Asia Elite Training Team?

If Coach Yuan hadn't given up that position in the past, she might be the head coach now.

Lingye, are you actually stupid or pretending to be stupid?

Coach Fei isn't just famous because he's the head coach of Asia Elite Training Team.

He also has a special skill. Isn't that right, Yangyang?

Don't touch me.

Lingye, don't you know this Coach Fei has a unique nickname?

- What nickname?
- Yeah.

He's called the swimmers' Golden Pointer.

Swimmers' Golden Pointer?

- What's that?
- What?

Golden Pointer means Coach Fei has the ability to turn anything he touches into gold.

Even for a normal competitor, his one word can make them improve a lot.

What Coach Fei, I say he's just a waste (fei) of time.

Golden Pointer? He always critiques the students that others invested so much effort in.

He just says a few words and he gets all the credit. Shameless.

Coach Wu, why do you hate Coach Fei?

Stop interrupting me.

And this Yuan Runmei is such a fangirl.

Don't you know that girls are into plump body figures? You skinny stick, get lost.

Does Head Coach Yuan like Coach Fei?

If she keeps staring at his face like that, she will puncture a hole in his face.

Lingye is right this time. This Coach Fei is a senior of Coach Yuan in college.

I heard Coach Yuan had a crush on Coach Fei before.

One time, I saw their photo together in her wallet.

No way. Coach Yuan kept their picture until now?

Did Coach Fei come this time to accept Coach Yuan? Will they be a couple?

As athletes, please learn to use your brain. Don't just think about swimming all the time.

The head coach of Asia Elite Training Team didn't come here to date.

He's here to look for new, potential swimmers.

Qi Ruifeng.

Qi Ruifeng, come over here.

Go.

Senior, this is one of our swimmers. He's Qi Ruifeng.

Give your greetings.

Nice to meet you, Coach Fei.

Nice to meet you.

That's right. Didn't you just say his swimming posture wasn't accurate? We'll have him swim again.

Alright. Swim once more. Let me see.

Alright.

The answer is out. It seems like Fei Yu is here for Qi Ruifeng.

Yuan Runmei used her own disciple to get close to Fei Yu.

Okay Coach Wu. You're like a old lady now. Stop being jealous. Get back to training.

Who's jealous? Let's go.

Looks like Coach Wu is really jealous today.

Coach Fei is so handsome, who wouldn't like him?

Get ready.

Here.

Why haven't you left yet?

You seemed busy. You didn't have dinner. Eat some.

My disciple is so great. You realized I didn't eat yet. Thank you.

It's so late.

Leave if you don't have anything else to do.

What about you?

I'll leave once I'm done.

Oh.

Go, go, go.

I'm finally done. So tired.

Lin Zi, go back home to sleep.

Lin Zi. Lin... Wake up.

Let's go.

- You're done?
- Yes.

Let's go. I'll take you home.

What's wrong?

I'm fine. I'm a bit dizzy. I'll be fine soon.

You're having a fever. I'll take you to the hospital.

I'm fine. I'll take you home.

Why would you take me home? I'll take you to the hospital. Let's go.

I'm fine.

Lin Zi. Lin Zi. Lin Zi.

[Outpatient]

Hi.

You're still in the mood to say hi to me?

Why didn't you tell me you weren't feeling good? You have a fever.

Are you a dummy? You scared me to death yesterday. You fainted onto your desk.

Don't be so nice to me. I'm afraid I'll fall for you.

I'm scolding you. Yet, you say you'd fall for me. Can you live with some dignity?

How can you joke around after getting sick like this?

I'm joking so that you won't worry about me.

Whatever. Getting mad at you would just anger myself to death. I'm glad you're okay.

I'll call in sick for you. Get some rest.

Where are you going?

I'm going to work. I have so much to do. Lie down. Rest up.

Hey, what are you doing?

I'm your assistant. I can't let you work by yourself while I rest.

- You're a patient.
- It's decided. Let's go to work together.

Hey.

Hey Lin Zi. Stop messing around. Go back and rest.

How is it? Do I still have a fever?

It's gone.

That's right. You should stop worrying.

I slept, took medicine, and got a shot. I'm fine.

But you...

Let me tell you. I really don't want to stay at the hospital by myself.

Let's go.

Morning.

Lin Zi, do you really not need to rest? I can call in sick for you.

I'm fine. I said many times.

But you...

I'm fine. Don't worry. Get to preparing the materials for our meeting.

Isn't Director Liu waiting to hear your proposal? I'll get you some coffee.

Lin Zi

I have a question for you.

What is it?

About James Lin.

Why are you hiding your identity

to become a mere intern's assistant at our company?

I don't understand what you're saying.

I heard your conversation with Director Liu at the cafe.

I personally heard Director Liu call you

James Lin.

It's none of your business whether or not I'm James Lin.

I just want to know why you're here.

Didn't you already hear my conversation with Director Liu?

You clearly know the reason why I'm here.

The James Lin I know will not be satisfied

with the position of financial consultant.

He came here for other reasons.

I told you the answer a long time ago.

Whether or not I'm James Lin,

I, Lin Zi, came to this company for one reason.

That is because of Yun Duo.

Yun Duo?

That's right. I told you before.

I came here to repay Yun Duo.

If you're not James Lin, I would believe what you said.

I would believe that you're here as an assistant because

you want to protect Yun Duo to repay her.

The James Lin I know

only considers his own benefits.

He would not choose this method to repay someone because it benefits him in no way.

After hearing what you said, you seem to know James Lin better than I do.

At least, I know him better than you could imagine.

Let me tell you. The James Lin you're talking about

already disappear from this world 4 years ago.

Despite that, you're right about one thing.

I didn't only come here to repay Yun Duo.

What do you mean?

I like her.

I don't only protect her. I want to be with her.

Yibai, keep the range of your strokes more clean.

Don't forget about pacing and only think about speeding up!

Did you notice Coach Wu is working very hard?

Of course. His love rival has invaded his own territory.

How could he not use this chance to show off?

Is this how I've been teaching you? Your movement is really off!

49.04 seconds is not okay. Completely off from your targeted level

Whatever. It's useless to say too much. I have to show you myself.

Oh my. Coach Wu is making personal demonstrations in order to assert his dominance.

Coach Wu, are you serious?

I am not the same as some people.

As a coach, I don't just use my mouth.

What does it mean to coach with sincerity? I will demonstrate everything personally.

Listen to me. Freestyle swimming depends on three words: flat, straight, sharp.

Your body must be flat. Your legs must be straight. Your hands must be sharp.

Lower the water's drag force to a minimum. Watch carefully.

Coach Wu, since you're so good at swimming, why don't you swim the 100 meter freestyles instead of Yibai?

Yibai, did you see?

Wait a second.

Yibai, do you listen to music before practice?

- What kind of music do you usually listen to?
- I listen to rap or rock.

No wonder.

Yibai. Let's do an experiment.

Experiment?

Pretend to be tricked by me. First, calm yourself.

Swim after you listen to this. I guarantee that the results will be different.

Golden Pointer already said something. Don't leave him hanging.

I think we can use Tang Yibai's popularity to increase the audience range of our sports sector.

Try to attract the females who usually don't watch sports news. We should list out those up-and-coming athlete stars.

For example, put Qi Ruifeng and Ouyang Heng into a specialized trendsetter sports section.

I don't think a mere introduction of them is enough.

If we really want to increase our female audience, we should use a more direct method.

Put Tang Yibai, Ouyang Heng, or Qi Ruifeng together as an athlete idol couple.

No. Although this can increase our female audience quickly,

turning sports into a form of online entertainment demotes our professionalism.

Also, those new viewers will not become a part of our stable audience.

It might even create a loss in our original audience.

I didn't come here just to repay Yun Duo.

I like her.

Not only will I protect her, I will also be with her.

Cheng Mei, what's your opinion?

I...

Sorry. I don't have an opinion this time.

You don't seem focused on this meeting.

In our next meeting, if you are still so distracted, you do not need to attend.

Sorry.

Yun Duo, what's your opinion?

For this Tang Yibai special proposal, I want to create a long-term "up close and personal" interview

centered around Tang Yibai, starting now until the end of Dream Cup.

"Up close and personal" interview?

In the form of a personal documentary, we will record Tang Yibai's everyday life and training.

This can allow the audience to know more about Tang Yibai's lifestyle. Also, they can experience

how hard an athlete like Tang Yibai trains. It will pass on a positive message of working to achieve one's dreams.

This is a good idea.

But, Yun Duo, we are looking for specialized interviews, not a documentary.

Even though he's popular now, no one can guarantee how long he will stay that way.

That's right Yun Duo. Director Liu is right.

Never mind its ability to attract the viewers' interests.

You should also consider the long-term financial investment issue.

I understand, but I don't want to follow the bandwagon and put all the attention on Tang Yibai's current achievements and gossip.

Moreover, we're the sports news sector. I want the audience to see

how much sweat and tears an athlete like Tang Yibai sacrifices before a competition.

Director Liu, I also have some thoughts on Yun Duo's suggestion.

Wait a second. I'm not done talking.

You are only worried about two issues: first, how long is Tang Yibai's popularity going to last?

Second, is Tang Yibai worth our time and money?

I found a solution.

We can turn this documentary into a faster product.

In the form of a personal and intimate reality show, we can post the videos weekly.

This way, we can divide up the workload and cost.

This way, if Tang Yibai's popularity falls, if our audience don't like it, or if our view count drops, we can stop at any time.

Then, the problems you were worried about won't exist.

That's reasonable.

Not bad. That suggestions is very probable.

Yun Duo. Good work. You improved a lot lately.

Alright. We will go with Yun Duo's idea.

We will create a weekly personal interview for Tang Yibai.

Any more questions? Okay.

Cheng Mei, stay behind. Meeting over.

Let's go.

Okay. Let's go. The meeting is over.

What is it? Are you worried about Cheng Mei?

Yea. I don't know what happened to her. She seems preoccupied.

It's her first time not paying attention at a meeting.

Isn't she your good friend? Go ask her if you're worried.

I did. She didn't say anything.

Really?

Also, this is my first time seeing Director Liu lecture her.

Alright. Stop worrying. Think about it like this:

Even if you're friends, you guys are competitors too.

The competition for the interns is very intense. Only two of the thirteen will remain.

Without a competitor like Cheng Mei, you will have a higher chance of becoming an official reporter.

You don't understand. Cheng Mei and I promised we will both work hard to stay as official reporters.

Sit.

I believe you know why I told you to stay.

I know. It's because of my recent performance is not up to par.

This is only one of the reasons. The other reason is that

last week, the company decided to hire Li Hongyan, who is currently working in the entertainment sector.

Then...

That means there's only one remaining spot for an intern to become official.

Out of the 13, I had high hopes for you.

But, you have disappointed me lately. Truthfully,

if I had to choose now, I would choose to keep Yun Duo instead of you.

Director Liu, I understand.

I will work harder to win your trust.

Very good. Continue with this energy. Don't lose your momentum. Good luck.

Coach, am I seeing things wrong? Why do I feel like Yibai is calmer than before?

He's not moving fast, but his speed has not slowed at all.

Not only that, he's effortlessly speeding up.

Yibai is swimming so wonderfully. The angle of his splashes look so picturesque.

I can't even feel him breathing. He's combined himself with the water. He's become a fish.

He's almost at the turnaround. With this speed, will Yibai make a breakthrough?

Senior, what did you do?

I've never seen Tang Yibai turn so smoothly. You're so impressive.

I'm not the impressive one. Tang Yibai is just a fast learner. I merely gave him a more suitable rhythm.

Rhythm?

Every swimmer has their own rhythm.

Tang Yibai's personality is introverted and steady, but his swimming speed was vastly different.

I could tell he had not become one with the water.

Tang Yibai lacked a steady rhythm to lead him. The music I just showed him

is a cannon composed by Beethoven, the first composer to utilize metronome markings in his pieces.

It gave him a breathing pattern. If his breathing rhythm is correct,

it's not difficult for him to get his 100 meter freestyle
time below 48 seconds.

Sorry. Excuse me.

48.02 seconds.

Good job. You're smart. A small adjustment

helped you improved a lot. No wonder you're the future star of the swimming circle that I picked.

Cheng Mei.

Are you okay? What did Director Liu say to you? Why do you look so terrible?

I'm fine. Director Liu just wanted to talk about the following work. Don't worry.

Good. I was afraid he lectured you.

Yun Duo.

Teacher Sun.

The first round of point qualifiers for North Physical in the Dream Cup is about to begin.

This will be Sovereign of the North Ouyang Heng's first competition.

You and your assistant go prepare for a pre-competition interview.

Although Ouyang Heng never accepts interviews, it's good enough to get some pictures of him.

- Sure.
- Teacher Sun, Director Liu just told Yun Duo to prepare for Tang Yibai's exclusive interview. Did you forget?

Now, you're asking Yun Duo to prepare for an interview with North Physical. Isn't the workload a little heavy?

That's right. How annoying.

Teacher Sun, how about you send me and Cheng Mei to the interview of North Physical?

- You?
- Yes.

If I'm not mistaken, Cheng Mei has interviewed North Physical before. She's familiar with them.

If I go with her, I'll be able to learn some things. Am I right, Cheng Mei?

Alright. I'm okay with it.

Alright. Since you guys are so motivated, that's decided.

Yun Duo. From now on, focus on Tang Yibai.

Yes.

That's so great Cheng Mei. You're such a good sister. Thank you.

If I had to do both, I don't think I could do it.

It's only the lift of a finger. Alright, let's not talk anymore. Let's continue to work hard.

Good luck! Alright, I'll go to South Physical in a bit.

I'll find Head Coach Yuan and Coach Wu to allow an interview with Tang Yibai.

You, don't become a burden to Cheng Mei, okay?

Don't worry. Go do your work. Don't miss me too much when I'm not around you.

Miss what? Be good.

Good luck!

What do you mean?

I want Tang Yibai to enter the Asia Elite Training Team.

Senior, didn't you say last time that Qi Ruifeng is chosen?

Why is it Yibai now?

Ruifeng is confirmed to be a candidate of the Asia Elite Training Team, chosen by the team.

Tang Yibai is different.

I want to choose you privately. I hope that you can join the Asia Elite Training Team starting now,

and use your results at the end of the training period to win the trust of the coaching group,

so that you an officially join the Training Team.

So, that means the other coaches don't want me to join?

I don't understand your purpose in doing this.

Four years ago, there was a saying among the coaching group.

Runmei, you remember right?

I remember. It was a doggerel poem.

"In the current swimming circle, there are three gold swimmers."

"Yibai's talent is the one and only. Ouyang's technique is breath-taking.

Ruifeng's confidence cannot be defeated." You three are the hopes of the swimming circle.

In eligibility, technique, and psychological qualifications,

you three are extraordinary and complement each other.

What are you guys doing?

What are you doing here?

I came to find Head Coach Yuan about Tang Yibai's exclusive interview. What are you doing?

Be smart won't you? Can't you see I'm eavesdropping?

- You're so proud of eavesdropping?
- That's right.

Yibai, I can't just watch as your talent gets buried.

I want to give you more professional training. I believe that with your performance, you can become better.

Come to me, Yibai.

Coach Fei, I thank you for your affirmation.

Coach Fei said he wants to invite Yibai to the Asia Elite Training Team.

This is good news. If Yibai can join the Asia Elite Training Team, that'd be great. Right, Yibai?

Yibai's age

is much older than the current athletes undergoing our training.

If you're willing to join Asia Elite Training Team,

I hope you can put all your focus on the training.

His future stage could be as big as the whole world.

He should avoid all national competitions if possible.

Senior, are you saying Yibai won't be participating in Dream Cup competition?

Dream Cup is highly valued in the Chinese college swimming circle

because of no other reason than that it's an ultimate stage.

But now, I have higher hopes for you.

I've already given you the passport that will lead you to a worldwide stage.

I believe you know how to choose.

Can you let me think about it?

No hurry. I'll be staying at South Physical for a while. Tell me when you have an answer.

Thanks Coach Fei.

- What are you guys doing?
- I was just passing by.

You guys can chat. I need to talk with Ming Tian.

What a coincidence.

I came to find them.

- This belongs to Qi Ruifeng.
- I...

Why are you staring at me?

Let me express my opinion. Personally, I hope that no matter what happens,

Brother Yibai should leave after the Dream Cup competition.

If Brother Yibai leaves, we will lose all hopes in winning the 100 meter freestyle and backstroke.

Also, we'll have to quit the 4x100 meter medley race after we finally learned

how to work cooperatively.

Tang Yibai, as a swimmer,

I am happy that you can join Asian Elite Training Team.

You don't have to care about how I feel right now,

but can you consider Ming Tian and Qi Ruifeng's feelings?

Without you, our team can't do it.

That's right Brother Yibai.

Can you go to Asia Elite Training Team after graduating like Brother Ruifeng?

Did you think you're the charge of Asia Elite Training Team? He can't join whenever he pleases.

Our team's honor is important, but we need to consider this from Yibai's point of view.

Joining Asia Elite Training Team is equivalent to going professional. That's all of our dreams, right?

If everyone sees Yibai as a friend, we should consider his future.

Hey Qi Ruifeng. You're the captain. Say something.

What should I say? I believe in Yibai.

I have no opinion on whether or not he leaves.

Brother Feng, what about our competition?

Okay. Stop disturbing him.

Yibai, decide on your own.

Don't bother with him.

Brother Feng didn't convince Brother Yibai to stay?

Are you crazy? Can't you see Qi Ruifeng is not speaking his mind?

He tells Yibai to make his own decision, but he's the one who doesn't want Yibai to leave the most.

That's right. Where's Yun Duo?

Wasn't she just with you?

Yun Duo was just with me.

She's currently chatting with Head Coach yuan and Coach Wu about interviewing Yibai.

But I think it's unlikely. Coach Wu never liked Yun Duo getting close to Tang Yibai.

Now, Fei Yu is inviting him to Asia Elite Training Team.

I think he'd want to avoid all distractions to his training.

You mean, this personal interview will last until the end of Dream Cup?

Yes. QKVideo wants to use a timeliness method

to record Tang Yibai's everyday training process, and help everyone understand

how hard athletes train before competitions.

We want to also use this chance to transfer the positive message of working for one's dreams.

You're Yibai's main coach. What do you think?

My opinion is simple.

Yibai is focusing on Dream Cup competition. I don't want anything to distract him.

So, I oppose to this interview.

Coach Wu, don't decide so quickly.

I guarantee that this interview won't distract Tang Yibai.

How will it not affect him? I'm mad about this.

You know that I want you to stay away from him,

but you're here again. This time, you're openly suggesting

to create a personal interview. Are you purposefully trying to create trouble for me and Yibai?

No, no, no. Coach Wu, I think you have misunderstood.

This is my job. I'm not causing you trouble.

Alright. Hope you can think about it more. I'll be leaving first.

Wait a second.

Junior, can I share my opinion on this?

♫ It's beautiful. ♫

♫ My courage to love you ♫
