[Campus + Group Portrait + Pure Love + Youth] Strong contrasting character design × extreme detail tension × unique narrative style, the observer Song Zhen × the obsessive A Xiang, two people who are not good at expressing themselves, used 900 daily details to create a silent fall. You can watch it even if you don't understand baseball. This is not a sports article, but a story about how two teenagers got closer to each other.
Song Zhen is used to keeping a distance from others. On the first day he transferred to another school, he saw the ace of the school baseball team, Xiang, pitching alone in the spring cold. He was coughing so hard that he couldn't straighten up and continued to cough. Later, he discovered that Xiang would glance at the sky every time he pitched a good ball, and he would kneel down on one knee to wipe home plate before every training session. That was a habit left by my grandfather, who is no longer here.
Song Zhen shouldn't meddle in other people's business. But he said "you will get hurt" in the equipment room, listened to Axiang crying in the infirmary and said "I was so angry that I didn't go to the hospital that day", and took the initiative to touch another person for the first time when Axiang collapsed from exhaustion. And Axiang, with a tube of sunscreen, a hat, and countless restrained approaches, allowed Song Zhen, who was never touched by others, to slowly open a crack in the defense line.
Together they reached the national competition. At the critical moment, Song Zhen took off his mask and mouthed "breathe". Axiang threw the palm ball taught by his grandfather, and the ball fell steadily into Song Zhen's gloves. This time, he didn't look at the sky.
Intention: "Take your time" is a kind of sincerity. Allow yourself to walk slowly, and allow others to approach slowly.
