[Reporter Lin Youchen/Taichung Report] CITIC Brothers’ record in the first half of the season was last, but in the second half of the season they gradually showed hope of competing for the championship, until they dropped the yellow ribbon in the final battle. CITIC Brothers head coach Keiichi Hirano looked back on the entire process and said with a smile that it was like a Netflix plot, and also mentioned the key players in the team's record recovery.

Hirano said frankly that the team's record improvement is thanks to all the team's staff, and the coaching team members did not even sleep at night, working hard every day to think about how to make the team better. The coach works hard for the team every day, and often tells the players to put in more effort. The good results are thanks to the players.

Hirano mentioned captain Wang Weichen and said, "Weichen in particular can be said to be the MVP of the team. When we were in distress, he helped us communicate and find ways to break through. I am very grateful to him."

Hirano also pointed out the two young players Zhang Shilun and Zhang Renwei who have changed the team, saying: "They have changed the team a lot, raising the awareness of crisis within the team. I often emphasize competition within the team. These two have brought changes to the team, and I look forward to their future growth."
