One of the texts written on the scoreboard is clearly written.

[Four]

[catch]

[open]

What surprised Qu Shenghua was the character [Zhang], which represents the last name of the player who appeared.

According to their understanding, Japan does not have the surname "Zhang".

But among the players in the baseball department of Baishan High School, there is a main player named Zhang.

"Does there be Chinese students in the first year of high school?"

At first, Xiao Xi and the others thought that there were Chinese students among the first-year members of Baishan High School, but this idea was rejected as soon as it emerged.

at this time.

The baseball manager of Baishan High School read out the information about the defensive players one by one through the radio speaker.

""ねャッチャー,ちょくん (Catcher, Zhang Jun)!"

Xiao Xi, Zhan Shifang and Qu Shenghua saw the familiar and upright back.

"Damn it!!!"

"Is it?!!"

Zhan Shifang and Qu Shenghua looked at Xiao Xi in shock, eager to know whether the guess in their hearts was correct.

"Look at what I'm doing," Xiao Xi also looked surprised and puzzled, "I've been busy arranging travel plans these days and have no time to search for news."

"Old Xiao, you're so troublesome. There's no news about such a big deal."

Zhan Shifang complained: "You are still the group leader, haha! Hurry up and delete your ID of "Zhehuang's No. 1 single push" and let me do it!"

"Get out! You still don't know!"

While retorting, Xiao Xi used his mobile phone to search for news about Japanese college wild balls.

The news content found surprised the three of them.

Several news related to the baseball department of Baishan High School published the same news, that is, the head of the baseball department changed the registered nationality of Nishino Takashi and changed the login name to Zhang Zhe.

"Damn it!!!!!!"

"This is true!!!"

"Mom!!!"

The day before yesterday, when Zhan Shifang and Qu Shenghua first arrived in Japan, they talked to Xiao Xi about whether foreign Chinese could play for the Chinese national baseball team, and imagined that in the future, the national baseball team would produce a few more professional baseball players.

Unexpectedly, I got a surprise today.

A young Chinese baseball player they are extremely optimistic about has returned to Chinese nationality.

"Wow!! My mentality is so explosive!! Zhezai will always be divine!!!" Qu Shenghua was so excited.

"When Takano's group of people in China know, wouldn't they want to explode?!"

“Is there any news in China?”

"Let me take a look!" Xiao Xi immediately browsed the domestic website.

He flipped over a dozen pages and finally found a report with a reading volume of about 1,000 between the news that the 16-year-old Chinese skiing genius Gu Ailing returned to Chinese nationality.

The three of them watched carefully together.

"Recently, a 16-year-old Chinese baseball boy traveling to Japan chose Chinese nationality and will play in the U18 Baseball World Cup"

After reading this report, Xiao Xi and the others realized the whole story.

As early as this spring, Zhang Zhe returned to his hometown in Guangzhou to worship his ancestors. The Chinese Basketball Association contacted him and sent someone to visit him.

Although Zhang Zhe went to school in Japan, he spent the winter and summer vacations in his hometown in Guangzhou when he was a child. He loved Chinese history since he was a child and could speak authentic Cantonese.

After interviewing and understanding Zhang Zhe's intention to play for China, several coaches from the Chinese Baseball Association national team unanimously hope and assist him in completing the procedures as soon as possible to strive to catch up with the U18 Baseball World Cup.

The 2020 Tokyo Olympics resets the baseball event.

Despite the lack of national team strength, the Chinese Baseball Association still makes every effort to prepare for the Olympic baseball qualifiers.

The results of the U series baseball game are one of the ways to get points to improve the world ranking.

Finally, in June 2019, Zhang Zhe was officially converted to Chinese nationality.

"My fault!" Xiao Xi secretly scolded himself for his dereliction of duty.

It took him a few days to find out about the news.

But it was not a big problem, just knowing this news would be enough to make him ecstatic.

In fact, it is not uncommon for Chinese people to play baseball in Japanese high schools.

As far as Xiao Xi knows, in addition to Zhang Zhe, there are also active Chinese players in high schools in Tokyo, Shikoku, Fukuoka and other places.

Some people have accounts on Bilibili, and Xiao Xi also followed several people.

However, compared to Zhang Zhe's popularity and attention in the Japanese high school field, other Chinese players need to work harder.

Although baseball is a niche event in China, the Baseball Association is very dedicated to promoting baseball, organizing various youth, amateur and professional events in China, and also actively supporting young players to go out.

The Chinese Baseball Association has gradually carried out in-depth cooperation with the US, Japan and South Korea baseball systems, and used other countries' training systems to train players.

Xiao Xi hopes that Chinese baseball will get better and better, and now Zhang Zhe’s naturalization has strengthened his confidence.

As long as some players with excellent potential emerge, they will attract Chinese people to pay attention to baseball, then the level of baseball being understood in China will become higher and higher.

With an excited mood, Xiao Xi and the others watched the game that started on the court.

The main players of Baishan High School and Dongbang High School all came out in this game, and both sides sent out the strongest lineup considered by the supervisor, so the pace of the game was very clear.

The 3rd game ended, Dongbang 2 to 2 Baishan.

The 6th game ended, Dongbang 4 to 5 Baishan.

The game started and closed fiercely, and Xiao Xi and the others were watching it.

The three of them stood sore and didn't notice it much. Until they saw some town residents sitting in a small stool, they suddenly felt a sore in their feet.

"The feet hurt so much!"

"I can't care about that much, sit on the ground."

"OK!"

They found a piece of grass to sit down, and they also took a break during the game.

Zhan Shifang felt a little depressed when he saw Xiao Xi pulling his phone: "Old Xiao, what's wrong?"

Xiao Xi was worried about the other side.

"When Takashi was still a Japanese citizen, the Japanese Takano media promoted his own son, and he had filmed several personal documentaries alone."

"From now on, I'm afraid I won't have this treatment."

"If you don't play well or lose if you make mistakes in the future, the Japanese media will be ruthless when criticized."

"I'm worried that Emperor Zhe will be affected by this."

"It probably won't be." Zhan Shifang said uncertainly.

Just as they were discussing, the situation on the game changed drastically.

In the second half of the seventh inning, Baishan High School attacked.

Once eliminated.

Full of the roof.

The hitter has four sticks.

Qu Shenghua held up his cell phone and said excitedly: "Wow! It's Zhezai's turn again! Manlei! It's so exciting!"

"Can Brother Zhe come here?" Zhan Shifang was also full of expectations. If he could shoot a home run today, this trip to Japan would be worth it.

Xiao Xi and the others watched with great enthusiasm on the sidelines.

Their eyesight determines whether the ball is good or bad, and the judges rely on the gestures of the presiding judges. As for the ball types, they can only distinguish between straight balls and changing balls when they see it on the spot.

The first ball comes out.

No swing.

The judge is the best ball.

Next is the second ball.

No swings again.

The presiding judge once again as a good goal.

"Oh, two good balls are here, Zhezai, we won't swing, we're so anxious." Qu Shenghua was even more nervous than the people in the attack area, and she looked like she was watching the ball in an in-shot style.
