The shot was fixed at the Zhangzhou Women's Volleyball Training Base.

Time: New Year's Eve.

Outside the window of the women's volleyball training hall, a few brilliant fireworks passed across the dark sky.

　　Under the dim light, a group of young girls were tirelessly following the ball from the opposite side.

They have bloody bandages on their knees, and their bodies have long been wet with sweat.

Every time I catch the ball, it is accompanied by a hoarse cry...

　　This is the plot of the just-released movie "Win the Championship". The protagonist of the movie is the "iron and blood master" in the history of Chinese sports-the Chinese Women's Volleyball Team.

　　The film takes the volleyball legend Lang Ping as the main line. Through three classic matches in the history of Chinese women's volleyball, it connects the blood and youth of several generations of Chinese women's volleyball players and reproduces the ups and downs of the Chinese women's volleyball team for more than 40 years.

　　At the beginning of the movie, the audience's thoughts were brought back to the Chinese women's volleyball team's natal home-Fujian Zhangzhou training base.

It has witnessed the establishment of the Chinese women's volleyball team and has tempered and forged generations of volleyball players.

　　Old stadiums, simple facilities, and girls' worn palms and bloody knees... After the film, many viewers expressed that they were moved by the hard work of the women's volleyball girls.


　　Historically, the "marriage" between the women's volleyball team and Zhangzhou base dates back to 1972.

At that time, the National Sports Commission decided to establish a volleyball training base in Zhangzhou, which is rich in resources.

At the end of October, the location of the training base has been selected. According to the plan, the women's volleyball players will come for training in December.

　　Due to time constraints, at first the women's volleyball girls could only train in a makeshift bamboo pavilion.

The floor of the bamboo pavilion is tamped with a mixture of loess, lime, and salt water, and then padded with cinder.

When it rained, the ground was damp, and the girls rolled in mud, and their thighs and elbows often bleed.

Someone's wound and bed sheet were glued together while sleeping. When the team doctor came to separate the bed sheet from the wound, the wound had already become suppurative.

　　Under such difficult conditions, the women's volleyball girls have never called bitterness or tiredness.

They opened the brilliant chapter of the Chinese women's volleyball team's five consecutive championships with their tenacious struggle and never giving up.

　　At that time, the world volleyball were dominated by powerful teams such as the Japanese women's volleyball team and the American women's volleyball team known as the "Witch of the East".

As a latecomer, the only thing the Chinese women's volleyball team can do is to continuously improve the professional level and break the limit through thousands of repeated trainings.

　　In the film, the young Lang Ping played by Bai Lang said: "The distance from the bottom of the national flag to the ground is 3.32 meters. That is Heyman's touch. One day I will pass her."

　　Zhong Jiaqi, the former director of the Zhangzhou Women’s Volleyball Training Base in Fujian, once recalled: “Each women's volleyball player has to serve 100 balls, buckle 200 balls, and pad 300 balls in a morning... If you can’t complete the task, you can’t eat.”

　　This kind of training sounds cruel, but in the face of opponents who are better in all aspects, only if you practice harder can you see a glimmer of hope in the dark.

Data map: In the 2016 Rio Olympics, the Chinese women's volleyball team won the Olympic championship again after 12 years.

　　Facts have proved that hard sweat will not flow in vain.

In the 3rd World Cup in 1981, after several years of hard work and weight-bearing, the Chinese women's volleyball team defeated the defending champion Japan in the final decisive battle and reached the top of the world for the first time.

　　This is also the first world champion among China's three major goals.

　　In the following three years, the Chinese women's volleyball team won the World Championships and Olympic Games again, achieving a "three consecutive championships".

In 1985 and 1986, the Chinese women's volleyball team successfully defended the World Cup and World Championships, thus achieving the "five consecutive championships" that has been eulogized to this day.

　　Time passed, the current Zhangzhou base has long been replaced by a new look, and the "bamboo shed" was replaced by a modern training hall.

However, the memory of working hard here has been passed down in the Chinese women's volleyball team.

　　In the play, the head coach Lang Ping played by Gong Li led a new generation of women's volleyball players back to Zhangzhou before the Rio Olympics.

Facing the ball mark on the wall of the training hall, Huang Bo played Chen Zhonghe said: "At that time, we played and there was nothing, but we have this in our hearts." Those mottled marks on the wall are not the spirit of the women's volleyball team. The embodiment.

　　At the Rio Olympics, the Chinese women's volleyball team, which was questioned in the group stage, staged a comeback in the knockout round.

Facing the thriving host Brazil, the women's volleyball girls finally defeated their opponents 3:2 after falling behind.

At that moment, the spirit of the women's volleyball team had a new footnote.

　　Director Chen Kexin also put this classic battle on the screen.

The original cast of the Chinese women's volleyball team appeared on the scene, as if returning the audience to the summer four years ago.

After defeating the Brazilian team, the Chinese women's volleyball team defeated the Dutch and Serbian women's volleyball team again, and won the Olympic champion again after 12 years.

　　From 1981 to 2016, although 35 years have passed, the spirit of "the motherland is supreme, unity and cooperation, tenacious struggle, and never give up" of the Chinese women's volleyball team has been passed on and continued.

　　In the play, two generations of women's volleyball representatives Lang Ping and Zhu Ting staged a tear-jerking scene.

　　Lang Ping asked Zhu Ting: "Why play?" Lang Ping, who has come all the way from the player era, hopes that his players can simply enjoy the fun of the game, get happiness from volleyball, and realize themselves, not just "for parents" , Or to be the next one.

　　In the movie, Lang Ping told Zhu Ting in this way: playing volleyball is not for parents or for idols, but for a better self.

While passing on the spirit of the women's volleyball team, it has also been given new meanings.

　　After winning the 2019 Women's Volleyball World Cup, Zhu Ting once said: "The spirit of the women's volleyball team has always been there. What we have to do is to preserve the spirit of the old women's volleyball team, fill the Chinese women's volleyball team with better things, and make the Chinese women's volleyball team better. , So that the women's volleyball team spirit is more fulfilled."

　　At the end of the movie, Gong Li stood on the sidelines, watching the new generation of Chinese women's volleyball team desperately, full of her former self.

　　Since the establishment of the Chinese Women's Volleyball Team, this team has gone through dozens of years.

Chen Zhonghe in the film said: "I don't know if others need the Chinese women's volleyball team, but I do."

　　This team has also experienced troughs and doubts.

Lang Ping took over the Chinese women's volleyball coach twice in times of crisis, the first time in 1995 and the second time in 2013.

　　After the "second entry into the palace", Lang Ping tried his best to implement the "big national team" model, and created a scientific training system tailored to the Chinese women's volleyball team.

Data map: In the 2019 Women's Volleyball World Cup, the Chinese women's volleyball team successfully defended their title with a record of victory.

　　I still remember what Lang Ping said when he took office: "I am the last in the old women's volleyball team. I should pass on something for the Chinese women's volleyball team and leave something behind."

　　From Yuan Weimin, to Chen Zhonghe, and then to the current coach Lang Ping, the spirit of the women's volleyball team not only passed between the players, but also continued between the changing positions.

　　Times are changing, coaches are changing, players are changing, and opponents are changing.

But the spirit of the women's volleyball team has been baptized over the years and has become stronger over time.

　　This is the fruit of generations of women's volleyball players with blood and sweat.

As the film said: "The Chinese women's volleyball team is not you, not me, but us."
