He was once a top-tier talent, but an accident sent him crashing to rock bottom.
He was the hottest rising star in the sport, but he drove away every co-driver he had.
Until they met each other...
Zhou Quan, 25, a genius navigator formerly with the Fiber Technology racing team.
At 23, his driver ignored his pace notes, and their car plunged down a mountainside. His right leg was shattered, bringing his career to an abrupt end. He left the team and returned to the convenience store in his hometown, thinking that was all life had left for him.
Shen Hanhai, 22, the lead driver for the Yul team and a hot-tempered rising star.
He's too fast, too reckless, and never listens. He's already driven away three navigators. No one can sit in his passenger seat; no one can keep up with his pace.
Until a slight, small man walks into the team's dormitory with a duffel bag.
The first time Shen Hanhai sees him, he says, "Manager Chen, where did you find this bean sprout?"
Zhou Quan says nothing. He just gets into the passenger seat and calls out the first pace note.
