In 1981, the Chinese women's volleyball team first stood on the top at the World Cup. And in 2019, it defended（保住）its World Cup crown with a record of 11 wins. The women's volleyball team has been the pride of the Chinese people. To honor it, a film named Zhongguo Nvpai or Leap in English has been made.
Based on the volleyball team's stories, the film shows the struggles（奋斗）and achievements of the Chinese women's volleyball team over the past 40 years. Gong Li, a world-famous Chinese actress, plays the role of Lang Ping, who has won the world championships many times with the team and is now the team's head coach. In order to play the role well, Gong came to the training site of the team, observing Lang's words and deeds carefully.
Zhu Ting, captain of the Chinese women's volleyball team, also plays a part in the film. It is the first time that she has taken part in a film shooting and she says it's a little bit difficult. However, her playing volleyball is more difficult than being an actress. It took her at least 10 years to rise to fame in the field but playing herself in the film could be realized in a short time.
