P3.B1: You seem to know him, // what is he like?
P4.B1: About half a year ago // a friend told me:
P4:B2: "There might be someone stronger than you"
P5.B1: But since I never met someone like that, I didn't believe it. // So I ignored it.

P8.B1: China is the leading power in the world regarding badminton!

P1.B1: Kenichi wants to play professional in China.
P1.B2: But our father is making him study economy, // so that he can take over the company.
P2.B1: Then after a big fight, they came to the agreement, that Kenichi may go back to China if he wins this Tournament.
P3.B1: Then where's the problem.... // Just let him play in China.
