Fly, Skating Star (飞吧，冰上之光)

49 km/h.

How fast is this speed?

This speed is the same as that of an adult eagle

flying through the air,

and the same as the fastest speed a human can achieve

without the aid of machinery.

This sport

is called short track speed skating.

It makes humans experience the feeling of flying.

Someone once said that

when you really approach that speed,

you'll feel as if

you are a beam of light.

This is the live broadcast of

the 2019 Black Rock Cup Asian Short Track Speed Skating

Invitational Tournament.

Yes, these three consecutive days of competition

were full of surprises and pressure.

Meanwhile, the competition finally

came to the most exciting moment.

At this moment I believe that all your eyes

are all focused on this competition,

because this competition is

to select the reserve athletes

for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.

The coaching staff of the national team all came here

to make the last nationwide selection of players

for the Winter Olympics training team.

After this competition,

the national training team will be formed.

The selection will end here.

This is the last ticket

to the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.

Yes, in order to make sure the athletes from each team

perform better,

this invitational tournament is highly standardized.

Kim Seung-woo, the top seed of the Korean national team,

known as a rare genius

and world champion,

is also here.

To contest the last chance of competing in the Winter Olympics,

all provincial teams have sent their top members

to participate in this tournament.

But as far as I know,

Fang Xiaoyi, the head coach of Jibei,

has made a sudden change to the team

before the competition.

Two faceless athletes, Cheng Huan and Shen Bingxin,

were sent instead.

I have no idea why she did that,

sending two inexperienced athletes

to such an important competition.

Shen Bingxin.

Control it. Lower your body when the curve ends.

God divided athletes into two kinds of people.

One is called genius,

and the other is deemed to be ordinary people. -Low center of gravity.

The outer track.

Shen Bingxin is the first one.

All I can do

is to look at his back

when he is skating the anchor leg.

Excellent blocking.

Shen Bingxin is being bold and meticulous.

Now there's only nine laps left. Keep it!

How I wish I could do the anchor leg.

I want to hear the audience cheering for me too.

I must make it to Beijing Winter Olympics.

Cheng Huan's incredible extreme explosion

has made a perfect relaying with Shen Bingxin.

Shen Bingxin took the lead and rushed into the curve.

Four laps left.

The entrance of Winter Olympics is near.

Why?

There are 27 million people in China playing basketball every year.

Yet there are only 12 players in the national team.

16 million people plays volleyball.

There are 21 players in the national team.

Ping pong players are more countless.

More than 80 million players.

Only 12 players in the national team.

But our short track speed skating is different.

All together in China, there are only

3,000 people who play the sport.

National team.

10.

So why would we choose short track speed skating?

Why?

To be successful.

Three years ago,

I took the qualification test of national second-level athlete

in short track speed skating.

And I made it.

What the...

Don't touch them.

Come on, bro.

Just practice with me.

I bet you will be the next one.

It must be you.

These...

These shoes

are so neat.

Look at these shoes.

Who is he?

All-carbon.

Cheng Huan, my friend,

delivering takeout for his dad,

he always wanted to practice skating.

So he brings food here every day.

But his physical condition is not too good.

Well,

who deserves these shoes?

These shoes...

Bro, where did you buy these shoes?

You won't find them.

Can you sell them to me?

Oh, I got it.

Here you go, bro.

Bro.

Let me ask you.

Can you skate or not?

I...

No.

It's settled then.

Only the second-level athletes

are qualified to wear this pair of shoes.

As for me,

I am the only second-level athletes

in our town for eight years.

Do you think

you are qualified to wear them?

But

I’m in a good mood today.

The 200 yuan you just paid

is the entrance fee for our group.

If you really want to learn skating,

pay 5,000 yuan later.

I will make you the next second-level athlete

in five or ten years.

Yang Yu.

Did you hear that?

Cap, let's not take him for a fool.

My brother just told me that,

in five or ten years,

I'll be a national second-grade athlete.

Then in another five or ten years,

I’ll be in the national team.

In another five or ten years,

I will be a world champion.

Brother,

How about we start today?

Let's start practicing today.

But I have one condition.

Please go ahead.

Cap.

Xiao Pang!

He got beaten in the ice field.

What the...

How could he be beaten up in Mudanjiang?

Who did this?

Who?

Is it true?

Why would I lie to you?

Wang Meng and Lin Bohan,

they all started from our neighborhood, didn't they?

Besides, I've heard that

the Devil Coach will come in person to choose students this time.

What are you two talking about?

Nothing. We're just chatting.

Can't you read?

I just didn't read it carefully.

We'll stop chatting.

I don't want to with you.

That's more like it.

Have a drink with us, Cheng.

You wish! Just finish it and go home.

Why are you being so irritable?

So soon?

Of course. It was me who's doing the job.

Why is the delivery box still inside the bag?

How could I eat without a box?

I asked you to deliver it,

not to eat it.

No.

Our town is separated by Hengdao River.

But our customers are on the other side of the river.

It'll take at least an hour,

If I go from here to there.

Won't the fried pork be cold by then?

I had to eat it for the big picture.

I...

I've practiced,

ten years of martial arts.

Are you scared or not?

Stop talking nonsense.

My son went to the same place a few days ago.

It only took him 15 minutes to go there and come back.
