Chinese original
The film is inspired by China's "breakthrough zero" for gold medals in the Chinese Winter Olympics, telling the story of the Winter Olympics athletes struggling to forge ahead and win glory for the country. In 1980, the Chinese delegation began to participate in the Winter Olympics, and repeatedly missed the gold medal. The failure and unwillingness stabbed the hearts of the Chinese like a needle. In order to achieve zero breakthroughs, Qin Shan formed the Chinese national short-track speed skating team represented by Yang Fan and was ordered to be ashamed in the face of danger. The two launched an attack on the gold medal, and the relationship between master and apprentice was also faced with fierce collisions and many tests. (Source: ChineseDrama.info)
