[Pop Karting Club]

[First place, Car No.16, Racer: Mr. Convincing]

You're Mr. Convincing, huh?

I'm Zhang Chi.

You did a good job.

I'm Sun Yuqiang.

I'll drive a bit longer.

Who's that guy?

He said his name was Sun Yuqiang.

He's a good driver.

Indeed.

Speeding Garage?

What do you think?

A really good place.

Good, isn't it?

Such a cool car.

What's your problem?

Didn't you see me down here?

Why are you here?

None of your business.

Ye invited me.

No need for introductions.

The karting club.

He's that good driver.

Yeah.

- Well, - That's him.

You're a famous racer.

In last year's CCRC,

you were the third place in circuits.

Yes.

Hello, Mr. Ye. I'm Sun Yuqiang.

Ye,

I just rode on the mountain.

But I feel something is wrong with my motorcycle again.

Adjust the damper for me, okay?

I heard you were going

to open a racing club, huh?

What club?

Racing club?

If we really open a racing club,

can you guys do that?

Technique, time,

and determination to fight despite repeated failure.

We need money, too.

I have time.

I have technique.

And I... I have...

I have the determination to fight despite repeated failure!

- You have money! - You have money!

Ji Xing, are water and electricity off?

Let's leave, then.

Okay.

[Speeding Racing Team]

Done.

Let's go.

You get in the car.

Ji Xing, you drive.

Hello.

It's the press conference for the new season tomorrow.

I have to be there, anyway.

[Traffic Police]

Come on, when will the road be available?

I'm in a hurry.

Not until I'm done with the spare tire.

Can you do that?

I'm the CCRC record holder

of a 15-second tire change.

You step aside. I'll take care of this.

15-second tire change

of CCRC?

You came to the right person.

Last year in Liupanshui circuit,

to cope with the complex local environment

and road conditions,

we had some special training.

Eventually, we did 15 seconds

and beat Master Racing Team

who did 16 seconds.

However,

it was a pity

we never used this

in any formal races.

You?

Who exactly?

Sun Yuqiang,

Ji Xing, Chi,

and me.

[I found something that may be relevant to your second personality]

What did you find?

I remember during the tire change,

your second personality told me

he was the CCRC's record holder

of a 15-second tire change.

I checked it.

There isn't such a record in CCRC.

Weiyi said it's an internal record.

Don't you think it's weird?

How did your second personality

know something

that only Speeding members knew?

Why could I accurately predict

the demand for wet tires

in CCRC Ningzhou circuit?

[Two million]

How come my wrong navigation

[Sheep+tire=?] made Zhang Chi avoid the sheep?

[Speeding Racing Team]

[Wei Qianli,] Why do I care

[Master Racing Rally Invitational] Why do I care

so much about Speeding Racing Team's future?

[Zhang Chi, Li Xiaohe, Zhang Weiyi, Ji Xing, Sun Yuqiang]

And why do I say

I can predict the future?

So, my second personality

turns out to be Zhang Chi who came back from the future.

What? Zhang Chi?

I just came up

with a ridiculous answer.

But anyway,

thank you.

This information matters to me.

[Children's Go-Kart Competition Championship]

Mr. Lin,

move it along.

Or you'll miss the plane to the UK.

[INTL/Hong Kong/Macao/Taiwan DEP]

Text Mom when you arrive.

Take care, Mom.

Take care.

Hello, Ye.

Hello, Mr. Lin.

You're leaving today?

Yes.

For the UK.

These days, thank you

for taking care of me.

I wish Speeding Racing Team

would still be the champion of the next season.

I'll cheer for you guys.

Oh, Speeding Racing Team...

It disbanded.

Disbanded?

Why?

[Ten days ago]

[Nurse Station] I heard the patient in Bed No.20

was a racer.

He was even a champion.

No wonder these days,

some reporters have been wandering

in our hospital.

Well, can that man

still do car racing?

No, according to the Director.

I heard his team had lost

their sponsors and advertisers.

I guess they'll be doomed.

It'd be better if you could take over.

If you can't,

what about your friends?

We have a great technique for sure.

Introducing you to my friends

would be cheating.

They aren't charities.

Am I right?

Well, Xiao, listen.

For Speeding,

I even mortgaged my flat.

If I had any other option,

I wouldn't have to beg you.

What are you talking about?

I take you as my friend.

How many years has it been

since you became a racer?

What do you still have now?

Your wife divorced you.

You can't see your child.

And you mortgaged your flat.

In your twenties,

you were like a boy scout.

In your thirties,

not giving in to fate,

you did car racing.

But now, you're forty, Ye!

You're 40.

You're no longer young.

If you keep being so impulsive,

you may easily break down, you know?

Press ahead against all odds

or advance bravely...

That's for fools.

Sometimes, one has to wake up to reality.

The reality is...

You should give up.

Xiao, you know what?

After I became a racer,

I realized that living a life

was just like driving sometimes.

When I sit in the driver's seat,

I just want to step on the gas.

I want to drive forward.

I hope that one day

I can take these young men to Dakar.

That's my dream.

Xiao,

I have a dream.

I can't break down.

Or who else can lead them forward?

Speeding is all that I have now.

All the sponsors only think highly of Zhang Chi.

Now, he's injured.

How about you make it a garage?

Get through the next six months first.

Ye,

what did he say?

Don't bother.

Let's mind our own business.

We'll open a garage, make some money,

and get through the next 6 months first.

Garage?

Garage...

Well, we're professional, then.

What is it called?

[Speeding Garage]

Dimensionality reduction.

Good.

My tools

and spare parts

for car repair...

They're still there.

We'll be able to repair all kinds of vehicles,

ranging from bikes to cars.

Now we need to think

about how to tell Zhang Chi about it.

Oh, right.

Actually, all excuses will sound fake.

Just get one.

What matters most

is that everybody wants

to stick together, doesn't it?

Remember not to mention the team thing.

And don't mention cars or races.

Or he would break down.

How about this?

We haven't had team building for months, right?

I'll invite everybody to a barbecue.

When we eat and have fun,

we can tell him about this.

Okay?

- Okay. - Good idea.

You go buy some meat. I'll go tell Li Xiaohe.

I'll buy some charcoal, too.

- Fine. - Okay.

Let's go get prepared, too.

It's really clever of Ye.

[Warmly congratulate Mr. Zhang Chi on leaving the hospital (in five days)]

[Wish the team building of Speeding Club a complete success]

What is this, surprise or shock?

Well, neither.

Ji Xing,

show it to everybody!

Coming.

What is this?

The guard beast I had made for you.

We hope

you will be forever safe

after you leave the hospital.

Cool, isn't it?

Such a big Leopard Peace.

Chi will always be safe in future races.

Don't mention races.

Anyway...

Anyway, it's our best wish.

Right?

Right.

We should...

We should give it a name.

You.

You give a name.

Name...

Superstar Ye.

Why?

It looks...

It looks like you.

Okay.

It's Superstar Ye, then.

From this day on,

Superstar Ye is the spiritual totem

of our team!

Good idea!

Ye, you look

exactly the same.

I'm much more handsome.

Come over here and look.

It looks so much like you. Come.

Are you sure?

How come?

How come I look like it?

Exactly the same.

Superstar Ye.

Really?

Come on.

Let me take a photo for you. Hurry.

Come over.

Come on, Chi.

Come over here.

Group photo.

Come on.

Three.

Chi, smile.

Come on, smile.

Be happy.

One.

Two.

One, two, three.

Three.

Well, they...

The two of them.

A photo alone.

Yeah, yeah.

You two stand on both sides.

Ye, you go stand there.

Chi, smile.

Smile.

Cheer up.

One, two, three.

A beautiful day, isn't it?

Yes.

When are we arriving?

I'm hungry.

Come on, Zhang Weiyi.

You eat a lot every day.

What about the weight?

You've gained it.

Satisfied, huh?

Hey, don't.

No wonder Chi keeps complaining about my weight

and asking me to lose weight.

Yeah.

Wei Qianli's co-driver

only weighs over 60 kilos.

You have to weigh lighter.

I'm only about 8.8 catties.

When were you born?

Go away.

You know what?

Since I joined Speeding,

I've never had a square meal.

Ji Xing,

the main racers of our team

are all here in the car.

Drive safe.

Don't underestimate me.

You didn't know I was Schumacher

of Shanghai-Nanjing Expressway, huh?

Not to mention a car with four wheels,

I can even drive a big truck

with 18 wheels.

So, who squatted

by the expressway

and yelled,

"I ran out of gas?"

- That's right. - Gas...

All right. Stop.

Yeah.

You even sent a fatwa

in the group chat.

Come on. Say no more.

Who pulled your POLO

out of the mud?

I even gave you half a tank of gas.

Or you couldn't have made it to the gas station.

I'm driving, okay?

If you keep nagging, I won't drive you.

Stop it. Stop!

So much noise.

You get some sleep.

Hey, Ye.

Well...

Later,

when you tell him about our decision,

put...

Put it mildly.

I know.

Feels great.

Ye,

thank you

for today.

It's no big deal.

We're the champion of two games.

We should celebrate it.

Right?

Or Ye would be too stingy.

He must be up to something else.

What are you talking about? As if someone wants to trap you.

Come on.

Let's drink.

Cheers.

Ji Xing,

is the food ready?

Here it is.

Enjoy the food, then.

Even the sun's setting soon.

Smells great.

Don't grab it!

You always grab my food!

Wait a minute.

Give some to Chi.

No.

You guys enjoy it.

- Chi, have some. - Not until it cools down.

It's enough.

Enough.

Here, it's yours.

You guys eat.

I have something to say.

Four years ago,

when Speeding Racing Team was set up,

I promised you something.

I said

that within six years,

we would be a strong team

of CCRC.

But I never expect this.

Through

our joint effort,

it took us only four years

to be the champion.

And with the second championship,

we won...

We won again.

FASC doesn't approve.

But I do.

So do I.

Our Speeding Racing Team,

is the champion

of CCRC and Master Racing.

We're the true champion.

Yes!

That's right!

Speeding, is always the champion!

Come on.

We're the champion.

Cheers.

To Speeding!

To us!

Okay!

Champion.

Well, since you're so happy,

let me say something else.

Our team

needs a strategy transition.

We should focus on making money.

We should

become

an integrated car service company

for car modifications,

cultural recreation,

and car races.

Exactly.

Right.

Finally, I can tell my parents

that I have a serious...

Job.

Yeah, job.

Then I'll be

a rich woman.

You're already rich.

I think it's a good idea.

We should be bigger, stronger, and better.

Right?

Right.

Am I right?

Yes.

Do you guys approve?

I do!

So do I!

And me.

I approve!

Let's get closer to Zhang Chi.

Come on.

I approve.

So do I.

So do I.

I...

I won't

get involved.

- Help him. - Come on.

Ye is right.

Four years isn't very long.

It isn't short, either.

And it was hard for us

to be the champion.

To make Speeding Racing Team

bigger and stronger,

we need new racers.

I think

the racer of Bulls Racing Team...

Ding Cheng.

He has a lot of potential.

So, I think...

No.

Chi,

that's not what we mean.

Transition...

It's also a continuation.

Think about driving.

It's just like dancing.

No one can dance all his life.

No one can drive all his life, right?

Yeah.

- And now, we... - He's right.

We want to make money.

Yeah.

Right?

I know what you mean.

Now, you talk about the money thing, huh?

Don't you remember when you graduated from a world-class university?

What did you want to do?

You became a civil servant!

But six months later, you quit your job

for car racing.

At that time, you said

you had a dream of car racing!

What about now?

Now, you want to give up?

Chi...

You can get it, huh?

You think I don't understand?

I don't know what is transition?

What are your friends doing now?

Something they aren't supposed to do

and they don't want to do!

Back then, you joined us

for your dream of car racing!

Now, you want to run a garage.

Do the car filming?

Do you really want that?

Chi...

I'm not leaving Speeding Racing Team.

Weiyi,

you sit down.

Zhang Chi...

Ye, you think I don't know transition?

I...

You're not young.

What should I say to you?

All right, Zhang Chi. Say no more.

We've made a decision.

Today when everybody is here,

I...

I made a decision, too.

From this day on,

I, Zhang Chi,

will officially leave

Speeding Racing Team.

You know what?

Those guys are going too far.

When the surgery was being done,

they came to the corridor,

trying to poach Speeding's racers.

Yeah.

I heard the offer was great.

But they all refused.

I'm not leaving Speeding Racing Team

for another team.

Please don't call me anymore.

Thank you.

Xiao, you're here to poach me, huh?

We're born for Speeding

and we'll die for it!

I'll hang up!

I see

the house price has risen.

- Help me to ask... - Don't worry

about the surgery cost.

Ye has solved the problem.

The flat is the only thing

your parents left you, isn't it?

You really believe Ye is super rich?

I can't get them in trouble.

They deserve a better future.

I'm not buried.

Even if I quit,

I'll also come back and have fun with you, right?

Everyone has his dream.

I have mine, too.

In the first half of my life, I loved car racing.

I've realized my dream.

In the second half, I may fly a plane.

Next time I'm back,

I'll fly a plane.

I'm going to do Rally.

Do you know about Rally?

It's the loneliest competition.

I have to make sure

I'm doing my best for every second.

In every race,

I have to play my best

and keep driving forward.

Okay.

Whatever you do,

I'll be there for you.

I'll wait for you at the finish line.

Xiaohe.

Let's talk.

Under such circumstances,

let's just disband.

If you really don't want to drive, fine.

Let's go realize your next dream.

Learn how to fly a plane.

I'll go with you

to get a pilot's license.

From this day on,

stop thinking about me.

Think more about yourself.

I think a lot about myself.

What, for example?

I'll start a business with you.

What business?

Look, I'm injured.

Stop pretending, Zhang Chi.

I know you very well after all these years.

You said

that just to drive them away.

I know.

I not only want to drive them away

but also want to leave.

Stop pretending.

Take it.

Come on. I said, take it.

You like me?

Yes.

I've loved you for years. Don't you know?

I didn't know. I don't know.

And I won't know.

Play dumb, huh?

Yes.

Over all these years,

we've been colleagues.

Buddies, at most.

Or good friends.

Buddies.

Buddies!

Let me make a wish.

I wish I could be admitted

to the School of Economics.

I wish

I could be

a female executive

on the top floor of Xingchuang Finance.

You...

You know someone

at Xingchuang Finance, right?

Do me a favor, please.

Could you please

get a job for Li Xiaohe?

I can do that for you.

But you have to admit something.

I've defeated you so many times.

Are you convinced?

Yes.

What happened to your nose?

Did you fight anyone?

He said car racing wasn't even as good as rubbish picking.

I was so angry that I beat him.

You shouldn't have done that.

You should have convinced him.

Hold it.

Do you remember now?

He spoke ill of car racing. I should beat him.

How dare you talk back?

Grandpa, you look ugly when you lose your temper.

You...

Stop.

Such a sweet watermelon.

Stop.

Catch me.

You stop! Stop!

Oh, my grandson is back.

Come over.

Come.

Show me your report card.

[Ningzhou Central Primary School Report Card, Zhang Chi]

Grandpa,

don't worry.

I get bad marks.

But I can do car racing when I grow up.

I hear a champion of car racing

could get a lot of bonuses.

I'll take care of you with the bonus.

Grandpa.

Come on.

You bad boy.

Never mind.

Mr. Lin,

wish you

a promising future

and a smooth life.

We will

see each other again.

I am

on my way to the news conference.

I'll hang up.

[The news conference of CCRC Rookie Race will start]

[CCRC Rookie Race]

Hi, Ye.

Hello.

Ye.

Hi, Ye.

Hello.

All these years, you've seldom lost.

Try to win more branch races.

It's your first grand championship.

Hard work always pays off.

[New season of CCRC]

Dear racers

and

fans of racing,

Welcome to the news conference

for a series of races

of 2022 CCRC.

This year's championship

is especially exciting.

It is of special significance, too.

First of all,

there's a pre-season Rookie Race.

[Seventeen Fleets]

The top four new racers

[Three Events] will be qualified

for CCRC regular races.

[Welcome to CCRC Rookie Race]

Nothing is different.

Just as usual.

Yeah, nothing new.

However,

something's different.

This year,

we'll restart the qualification

for Dakar Rally

that was held 17 years ago.

Covenant of 17 years,

back to Dakar.

I hope that one day,

I can take these young men to Dakar.

[Covenant of 17 years, back to Dakar]

Do you know Dakar?

To racers like us,

Dakar is

the symbol of courage and perseverance.

The top six racers

of CCRC regular races

[Covenant of 17 years] will get a spot

[Back to Dakar] in Dakar Qualification Race

and fight

for the only chance

to race on behalf of China.

To make

this sacred moment in 17 years

more significant,

FASC

will give this racer

top equipment

and security

throughout the Rally.

Next,

let's warmly welcome

each racing team

to introduce

their new racers.

Thank you.

Thank you all

for supporting and helping my team.

Let me introduce to you

this year's two new racers

of our team.

Li Aoduo.

Wan Zihe.

Come up here.

First of all,

I want

to thank you

for the past year...

Oh, no.

In the past four years,

thank you for your care and help.

Honestly,

without your company or encouragement,

we wouldn't have developed

from an anonymous team

into

a champion team.

I don't think you do a good job.

Boss,

I may forget to tell you this.

In Speeding Racing Team,

I was the chief technician.

And my specialty is

to refit cars.

Save it, man.

I know.

Failing in your racing team,

you're here working for me.

Racing is

a bustling industry.

Every day,

new racers

come to the circuit.

Some racers leave, too.

This is the motorcycle culture?

It's just to show our Motorcycle Club has girls.

You're part of our soft power.

So,

I decided

to come here

and say goodbye.

Sun Yuqiang,

right?

You graduated from a good university.

After graduation, you became a civil servant.

Then you quit your job

and joined a racing team for fun.

Not for fun.

That was a serious job.

You don't look like a racer, though.

You look more like a navigator.

Co-driver, exactly.

We will not

take part

in the rookie race

or other CCRC games

of the next season.

Mr. Lin loves car racing.

I decided

to take him as my disciple.

You...

You can try

to find out

your innermost desire

and release it.

You belong to Speeding.

Speeding belongs to you, too.

I enjoy driving a race car with you.

Speeding didn't disband.

[CCRC]

Sorry, everybody.

But Speeding won't disband

or leave the racing industry.

In the future, we will

continue professional car racing

and do our best in the next season.

Thank you.

Well, this is the news conference of the Rookie Race.

So, you seem

to have new racers.

Let me introduce myself.

I'm Lin Zhendong, Speeding's new racer.

I'd appreciate your help in the future.

Mr. Wei,

thank you

for giving us a valuable lesson.

We'll see you in the future games.

Young man,

not until you win Rookie Race.

I'll win, of course.

Or how could I get the only spot

at the Dakar Rally?

Am I right?

Thank you, Speeding.

Next,

we'll have

Bulls Racing Team.

Give it up for them!

[Yu Haixiang] For this season...

[Manager of Bulls]

we'll introduce

only one secret racer.
