[Reporter Luo Zhipeng/Taipei Report] The Secondary Vocational School League announced earlier today, "Huang Qiancheng, a player of the Wei Chuan Dragons, has applied for arbitrary retirement as a player in accordance with Chapter 20 of the league's regulations. It is hereby announced." As the Taiwanese competition starts tomorrow, the news of 21-year-old left-hander Huang Qiancheng's application for arbitrary retirement was exposed, triggering heated discussions.

Earlier today, Huang Qiancheng posted on social media to explain, "Before the start of this year's season, a sudden change occurred in my family, which made me think differently about my future life plans and professional baseball career. After this period of consideration, I took the initiative to propose to the team to retire at will, and received the team's understanding and consent. At this stage, I hope to leave the high-intensity competitive environment of professional baseball. Leave some time to settle and think about your future career and life plans. I am grateful to the team, coaches and teammates for their care, especially the opportunity to be in the first team this year. I am really sorry that I cannot continue to contribute to the team due to personal factors. I take the support from all the fans and everyone who cares about me in my heart, and I hope everyone can understand my decision."

In 2023, Huang Baicheng graduated from Shoushan High School and entered the secondary vocational draft and was selected by Wei Quanlong in the fourth round. This year he made it to the first team for the first time. He played in 6 games as a backup and had an ERA of 3.00.
