[Sports Center/Comprehensive Report] The turmoil over whether Taiwanese player Zhang Yucheng will participate in the classic game continues to rage. Yesterday, there was a major turning point after the appearance of Cai Qichang, the president of the secondary vocational school. This matter also attracted the attention of the Japanese media.

The Japanese media "Sponichi Annex" reported last night that the 27-year-old infielder Zhang Yucheng will join the Taiwan team in the Classic. After negotiating with the president, he agreed to join the team. The head coach Lin Yueping also said that Zhang Yucheng is the player that the Taiwan team needs.

The Japanese media mentioned that Taiwan is divided into Group A. If they pass the preliminaries, they may face Japan in the quarter-finals. They also mentioned other Taiwanese players in Japan, including Zhang Yi who transferred from Orix to Seibu, Seibu fielder Wu Nianting, and Wang Bairong, who signed a breeding contract with Nippon Ham.

Among them, "Taiwan King" Wang Bairong accidentally sparked a debate among Japanese netizens in the comment area. Some netizens pointed out that they don't really care about Zhang Yucheng or the Taiwan team, but they can't understand why Wang Bairong, who has been unable to achieve results in Japan for 4 years, is still in the Ham team. I questioned Ham's high-level approach, but this message received more than 600 upvotes. Other fans below expressed their opinions. If Wang Bairong wants to go back to Taiwan, he can go back at any time. He himself hopes to stay. Nothing to lose.
