[Bright and Perfect Future]
I know that you meant to give this wildcard to Yuanshan Real Estate's President Qi's son.
You know Coach Zhang Yan from our tennis club. Right?
He previously worked as his private trainer and understands him really well.
He knows that this kid has a very introverted personality.
He doesn't even like tennis.
Tennis is a sport that was selected by President Qi in order to open up his own connections.
With his capability, he'll be slaughtered at the tournament.
Also, they won't appreciate you for it.
President Qi would feel embarrassed, too.
Your wildcard will turn into poison.
On there is a list of the best resources I've arranged.
He'll be interviewed by the most famous tennis magazine.
After that, if a tennis star comes to our country,
I'll arrange for him to get connected and train.
To President Qi, isn't this better than showing off?
Liang You'an,
I can give you this card to use.
But there's a condition.
Let's have a gentlemen's agreement.
I haven't decided what I want yet.
But once I know what I want,
you cannot refuse me.
I can't sell to Y-Space.
I already thought clearly about this problem. Selling is only a matter of timing.
We'll see if you want to sell later on.
Okay.
I agree.
Also, go back and tell Song Sanchuan.
Play well in the matches.
Don't lose so badly that it's embarrassing to see.
At minimum, this card is issued by Y-Space.
[TopSmash Tennis Club]
You're all here. I have some great news.
Hold on.
Someone delivered a photo to the club's front desk.
A number of malicious posts have also appeared online.
They say that TopSmash is striving to get the tournament's wildcard
because the manager is giving special treatment to her little boyfriend.
That's nonsense.
He won because he ranks the top at the club.
They also say that our club's internal ranking is a joke.
It's all manipulated.
We've been smeared.
Did you get the wildcard?
Yes, I got it.
That's good. I'm going to go to practice.
That's bullshit.
They say I gave the number one spot to Song Sanchuan.
It's insulting.
Enough. Don't be angry anymore.
It looks to me that Liang You'an and Sanchuan really do like each other.
They look sweet in that photo.
I've never heard him talk about it.
If they really are together, how can he not tell his buddies?
This gossip about him...
- Hey, Chuan'er. - Chuan'er.
About that wildcard, did Liang You'an get it yet?
Yeah.
Well... don't believe those nonsense posts online.
You've been training with all of us.
We know very well whether you're relying on real capability or...
Shoo, my mouth...
We're buddies and won't think that way.
They even say the resources aren't distributed fairly.
Liang You'an is really fair and impartial. Right?
Who doesn't know that?
None of that is important now.
They're smearing us because they believe I'll lose.
When I lose, it'll prove them right that I wasn't qualified for the wildcard.
It'll be useless for us to say anything.
That really seems true.
Let's not play then.
They won't be able to make up rumors then.
That's right. I think you should forget about it.
This competition is clearly meant for you to lose.
Even if you play, you'll lose. For athletes,
- it's mental abuse. - That's right.
You won't lose anything if you don't go.
There's still a month left.
Who says I'll definitely lose?
Chuan'er...
So handsome.
I led a team a long time ago.
A female team member was in love with the male manager.
At first, no one knew, so it was fine.
Later, their relationship was revealed and trouble came.
Everyone wants to go to a good environment,
where the prize money is high to compete in matches.
So, from the lineup arranged by the coach,
to the times and courts arranged for the matches,
everyone kept an eye on this girl to see if the resources she received were fair.
When it comes to these things, people never get the same anyway.
But because their relationship existed,
the girl ended up where she couldn't have any bit of better treatment than anyone else.
Otherwise, people would clamor.
A promising player eventually quit playing because of this matter.
Misunderstandings arose in the club over this matter, too.
I see a bright future for Sanchuan.
It wasn't easy for him to finally overcome his mental obstacle, and should be able to go far.
He shouldn't be ruined over something like this.
If you choose to act impulsively, the club will suffer because of your inappropriate behavior.
If everyone questions the fairness and impartiality of the club's rules,
why would good players come here to play?
Coach Yan, I didn't manage this matter well.
I wasn't acting professionally.
I shouldn't have fallen for my own player.
I'm a manager and I'm much older than he is.
I bear all the responsibility.
After the wildcard tournament,
if the club continues to be harmed by the damage,
I'll find a new manager to replace me.
Both Song Sanchuan and the club must keep moving forward.

Do you feel better?
Much better. Thanks, Sister Luo.
Does it still hurt here?
It's much better.
This isn't good. I think you should reduce your training load tomorrow.
If it continues like this, forget about the competition.
No need.
I feel I'm in the best shape ever.
If I really can't take it, I'll tell you.
It's fine, you don't need to reduce my training.
You're relying on these kinds of interventions to force recovery.
If the fatigue resistance of your muscles and bones can't cover your training load,
you'll collapse instantly.
This won't do. I can't bear this responsibility.
I'm going to look for Coach Yan.
- Keep soaking in the ice bucket. - No, wait, Brother Huo.
I'm going now, Teacher Luo.
Sister Luo, can you adjust my diet?
I feel that I'm not eating enough. The more I eat, the faster I'll recover.
Hold on.
You... You...
Do you realize you're a bit hyperactive right now?
In this condition, all the blood, nerves, and organs in your body are as if they're being grilled over fire.
Eating can indeed replenish your energy,
but I don't want to add oil to the fire.
I studied sports science.
The most important aspect about science is to pay attention to objective facts.
Do you really have to ruin your body for one competition?
I know.
Although people don't say it out loud,
but they all think...
that I'm going to play in a match that I'll surely lose.
Isn't that right?
Sister Luo, I really need your help.
What's the matter?
Go and see Song Sanchuan.
No one can persuade him now except you.
He is over-drafting the training intensity of his sports career.
Nian Nian,
I completely understand him from the bottom of my heart.
Think about it. He was underestimated by everyone and his performance isn't as good.
He didn't start in tennis either.
If he can win, that would be the best way to counter attack and shut everyone up.
So... I don't know how to persuade him to be less serious.
But I'm really worried about how hard he's training right now.
He may not even make it to the game and will destroy his body first.
He's already irrational now.
You can't be the same.
I have one more to go.
Why... Why did you come back?
The coaching team approached me, they asked me to talk to you.
You've been overtraining too much lately.
Actually, since we've already qualified for this tournament, we'll get a point no matter what.
Treat it as joining for the experience.
That'll be enough.
I know.
With my accumulated score this year and current skill level, I definitely don't stand a chance in it.
I also know what it means for the club to compete in this tournament.
I've been watching the whole thing,
and how much effort you spent on this wildcard.
So I'm especially grateful. Because I'll be the one who's competing.
As an athlete, what I have to do now...
is to win this competition.
Actually, before...
I'd never been able to accept it.
I think between me and the club... you've always prioritized the club.
Until now, when we received that photo
and the club was smeared,
then I knew what you were afraid of and what you were hiding from.
I know this probably isn't the right time,
but I still want to ask you again.
Liang You'an.
Do you like me?
I do.
That's enough.
How nice would it have been to say so earlier?
All those worries you have about our relationship
affecting the fairness of the club? Only I can fix that.
As long as I can win, even just one game, neither of us will have to leave the club.
All those doubts won't have a leg to stand on.
So all you need to do is stand there,
watch me...
and wait for me.
Leave the rest to me.
Okay?
Okay.
Then... you go back, take a good bath and go to bed.
I'll practice two more sets and go back to the dorm.
You said it. Just two more sets.
- And you'll go back to rest. - Yes, and go back to rest.
Keep your word.
Remember to switch off the lights and lock the door when you leave.
[Hangu Chinese Medical Center]
You're a professional athlete. Don't you have a doctor on your team?
I don't want the team to know.
Is my knee injury serious?
Wear and tear on the knee is a common injury for athletes.
Your condition is more likely to be cartilage damage.
I have seen many cases like yours.
As long as you cooperate with the treatment, you'll get better.
But you have to reduce the higher intensity training.
Maintain the most basic rehabilitative exercises and stretch appropriately.
If you don't stop the wear and tear, the situation is likely to worsen.
Do you have any pain relief methods? Something that will work quickly?
Doctor, you know what?
I'm about to play in a particularly prestigious tournament.
You've got to be kidding me.
You might have only damaged your medial meniscus right now.
If you delay any longer, you'll have problems even running and jumping normally.
And you still want to compete in a tournament?
It's okay.
It'll be especially worthwhile.
He'll be over there later.
- You're here. - Long time no see.
- Hello, hello. - How are you?
I'll help you all get a bottle of water later.
The weather is quite hot today.
Hello, all tennis fans.
We're at the "Young Space Cup" Tennis World Tour in Shenzhen.
The match to be played today on the center court
is the first highlight of the tournament.
The match features a rookie player from our country who switched from badminton to tennis, Song Sanchuan.
His opponent is from the Japan tournament, the second seeded player, Itoka Times.
Yes. Itoka's performance
this season has been good. His style of playing is also more versatile.
As a newcomer, Song Sanchuan still has a gap between his skills and Itoka's.
A number of malicious posts have also appeared online.
They said TopSmash's manager was seeking a wildcard for the challenge match.
Do you really have to ruin your body for one competition?
- You're overtraining... - All those worries you have... only I can fix that.
He is over-drafting the training intensity of his sports career.
Neither of us will have to leave the club. So all you need to do is stand there.
Leave the rest to me.
Young man, bear with me a little. The numbing injection will hurt a bit.
Song Sanchuan, it's time to go on the court now.
Chuan'er! You can do it, Chuan'er!
Show him what you can do! You got this!
We can see both players have entered the court and are sitting courtside making preparations.
The game has started. Right now, it's the coin toss to choose the sides.
Itoka serves first and scores.
Come on!
15-Love.
[Song Sanchuan - 0 | Itoka Times - 15]
Itoka's second serve, Song Sanchuan returns with a backhand.
Backhand again.
Itoka steps up to hit the ball, Song Sanchuan tries to save but fails.
Doesn't matter. Be steady.
- It's clear that Itoka is aggressive in his offense, and has scored on two consecutive serves. - 30-Love.
Can Song Sanchuan withstand the pressure?
40-Love.
Itoka has extensive experience in competitions.
His condition is really good.
He's really strong in his serves.
On the contrary, Song Sanchuan is slow to start.
He can't keep up with Itoka's pace and is playing more passively.
[Set 1 - Song Sanchuan - 1 | Itoka Times - 6]
Itoka scored the winning point and has won the first set.
It looks like it's a one-sided win for Itoka judging from the first set.
I think it's difficult for Song Sanchuan to do anything when his opponent is serving.
This isn't the style of play that he excels in.
We've studied his playing style for a long time.
He's not following his play routine.
Can't you tell?
He looks down at Sanchuan and doesn't think of Sanchuan as an opponent.
He is practicing new plays.
It's useless to say anything now, just believe in him.
Time.
Okay, the second set is starting. It's Song Sanchuan's serve.
First serve.
Itoka returns with a forehand.
Song Sanchuan steps up in advance to hit the ball back.
He scores this point.
Great!
15-Love.
Out!
Although Song Sanchuan lost the first set,
but based on his performance in this set,
as an older player, I think his interpretation of the match
and ability to adapt are still quite strong.
Did you see that? This kid is starting to predict his opponent's moves.
In that break, he's totally figured out his opponent's plays.
The kid's brain works really fast.
He's getting into his groove.
A beautiful interception. Very nice!
Song Sanchuan boldly used
the SABR move invented by Roger Federer. (SABR - Sneak Attack By Roger)
It means to move up when receiving the serve and sneaking in a volley.
This is Song Sanchuan's first time
breaking through his opponent's serve. It's also a turning point.
His breakthrough has succeeded, and the match has heated up.
♫ When training, endless destruction happens before you're resurrected ♫

♫ Let youth be about the moment regardless of cost ♫
Beautiful! Song Sanchuan intercepted at the net again.
The ball dropped at a fantastic point and the angle is superb.
Itoka could only look at the ball with a sigh.
We just saw the Japanese player Itoka slam his racket on the ground.
It looks like Song Sanchuan's style of play is causing a lot of pressure on Itoka.
He's starting to show negative emotional reactions.
Chinese player Song Sanchuan has calmed his mental state after a bad start,
and succeeded in winning the second set.
Time.
The match has entered the last and deciding set.
Great shot! Song Sanchuan played a really beautiful passing shot.
But it seems to be out of bounds.
What's the matter with that ball?
Mr. Song is challenging the call on the right near sideline.
The ball was called out.
Song Sanchuan has raised a challenge.
Let us all watch the replay in a bit.
Yes, let's watch the replay.
It's very close. It touched the line by just a little bit.
- It touched the line. It's good. - That's right.
15-Love.
Song Sanchuan's challenge is successful.
The score is now 15-Love.
I told you it's good.
It touched by only a little bit.
Song Sanchuan's condition is getting better and better.
The pressure is totally on Itoka now.
Yes, Song Sanchuan has found his own pace and is gradually controlling the game.
The match has reached the determining set with 5-5 score.
I-I get it now.
Has Itoka switched back to the style of play that we studied?
Liang You'an, you're improving.
Just watch. This rascal is about to show his real game-winning shot.
We see Song Sanchuan walking to the courtside.
He's changing his racket.
If you really want to achieve a killer shot, I have a last resort.
Aren't you a stringer of badminton rackets?
They're similar. I've researched it already.
As I understand it, the usual tennis rackets are strung at 50 to 60 lbs of tension.
Tighter strings can increase the control and accuracy over the ball.
Looser strings can increase the speed, force, and spin of the ball.
I've strung this racket to 35 pounds for you.
This will give you the greatest friction when you return the ball.
It'll increase the probability of success for your game-winning shot. This is all that I can do to help you.
Song Sanchuan has chosen to change his racket at a crucial point in the match.
I wonder what his considerations are.
We look forward to seeing his performance.
That's mine. Mine!
["Young Space Cup" Tennis World Tour]
Wow, Song Sanchuan hit a snake shape return.
He earned a critical point. But we can see his racket hit the ground to support him.
His knee might be injured.
That's right.
Song Sanchuan's step was obviously staggering.
You've been overtraining too much lately.
...and how much effort you spent on this wildcard.
I've been watching the whole thing.
What I have to do now is to win this competition.
Right now, we're at the final set, tie break, 6-5.
This is the first match point of the game.
We can tell Song Sanchuan's injury is affecting his strokes.
I think the opponent, Itoka has also noticed that.
He has adjusted his way to play by creating wider shots,
so that Song Sanchuan is required to move from one place to the other.
If the match carries on like that, the probability of Song Sanchuan winning will drastically become smaller.
This Japanese player is too despicable.
He knows Chuan'er is injured and he's deliberately moving him.
You can't say it that way, this is a competition.
It's normal to use each other's weaknesses.
Let's see how Sanchuan adjusts.
Itoka is now tied at 6-6 for the tie break.
If Song Sanchuan wants to win the match,
he has to win 2 consecutive points.
One of the points is also the opponent's serve.
That's right. For someone like Song Sanchuan who is injured, it's going to be very difficult.
Let's see how Song Sanchuan will handle those two points.
Time!
- Killing Shot! - There was a shocking scene on the court!
After seeing Song Sanchuan hit a snake shape return,
he did this backspin drop shot.
Once the ball crossed the net, it immediately rebounded back toward the net. It caught Itoka by surprise.
The referee called it a valid ball.
After this shot, Song Sanchuan earned this match's second match point.
This way to score a point is very rare in any match.
Also, all the pressure is on Itoka now.
Out!

Song, two sets to one, 1-6,
7-5, 7-6.
Song Sanchuan won this match miraculously.
He's also opened up a new chapter in his tennis career.
Let's congratulate our Chinese player, Song Sanchuan.

[Ambulance]
Are you in severe pain?
It hurts a lot, doesn't it?
It's okay, it's okay! We're almost there.
What's the matter?
Why are you laughing?
I won the match. I'm happy of course.
How was it?
I was handsome, wasn't I?
Handsome. Very handsome.
What competition?
Was it worth exchanging your leg for it?
It's worth it.
This match is worth it.
Doctor, how long before we arrive?
Almost there.
Thank you. We're almost there.
It's fine. If you're in pain, grab me.
It's okay, it's okay.
Liang You'an, you're really something. [Shenzhen Hospital]
This wildcard was totally worth it.
If you had only won the match, it wouldn't have this kind of effect.
Although I don't think this is the right time to say this,
but there are already three companies asking about investing.
Hello? I know. I know.
We can't stop the reporting on it already.
I just forwarded you the media list.
Please reach out to all of them one by one. The attitude has to be humble.
Mostly importantly don't focus on the injury.
He battled for four hours and defeated an international player.
Please ask the reporters to promote that more.
It's fine. I'll count on you all with the rest of the matters. Okay?
I want to pay for the hospital fees.
Doctor, how is it?
My initial diagnosis is meniscus injury, likely a torn ligament too.
In terms of the level of injury, we can only determine that through surgery.
But he... has issues with the surgery.
I don't want to do surgery, can we conduct conservative treatments for now?
Let me finish the tournament and then go into surgery?
You still want to carry on competing in this condition?
If we simply inject painkillers
and extract fluids, the situation will only worsen.
If we can do the surgery right away, your injury might be able to be repaired.
If you carry on training and compete, and it snaps?
Then that's irreversible.
You have to think about it carefully.
Doctor, we don't want to take the risk.
- Surgery. - No, wait.
Surgery won't guarantee that I'll fully recover. Do you know what I mean?
It's true that no one can guarantee full recovery.
As I said before, we need to examine the severity of the injury during the surgery.
Even if the surgery is successful, it still depends on the athlete's ability to recover.
They are professional athletes after all.
They rely on their physical ability more than ordinary people.
Once you've recovered, I can guarantee you won't have any mobility issues.
Whether you can go back to the previous level?
No one can predict at this point.
Doctor Wang, Director Li is looking for you.
You two can discuss it. If you want to proceed, sign the document.
Once I'm on the operating table, it's really not up to me anymore.
When they open up my knee, no matter if it's severe or not,
they'll finish the operation as part of a doctor's duty.
In that case, I won't be able to play again.
I'm being serious, my knee doesn't hurt that much after they just treated it.
I don't think I need to do surgery right away.
Can you let me finish this year's tournaments?
What are you talking about?
You just won a wildcard game, the best days are still coming.
What if my knee is ruined?!
If I can't win any more matches in the future, I'm worthless to you.
♫ If we don't talk about worldly principles ♫
♫ Let your emotions run free, stop running from them ♫
♫ Do you want to go down the path ahead of you? ♫
♫ If all the reason and emotion ♫
♫ realize the answer was you in the end ♫
♫ How resolute do I have to be for you to believe it's true ♫
♫ We're always thinking about how to do this ♫
♫ In order to not make any mistakes ♫
♫ That type of carefulness ♫
♫ Is so rare to find ♫
