Post-interview remarks: Lu Chao has a very laid back personality and there is a little bit of “innocence” in his shy smile. However, once he stands on that pitching mound, he takes advantage of his gifted upper back and pitches the ball with all of his might.For Lu Chao, who is from Heibei province, adjusting to life in Guangzhou, a southern city, must have been a difficult one. Nevertheless, with his kind personality, he has been able to fit in quite nicely with his team. Although Manager Lai Guo says that “Lu Chao still has a lot to learn”, it has become quite clear that Lu Chao has become a key component of the Guangdong Leopards’ plans. This is Lu Chao’s first visit to Japan, but he has said that he doesn’t have many days off and will not have time to do any sightseeing. This interview took place just before one of his few days off. Lu Chao was looking forward to a NPB ballgame in Tokyo Dome the day after that the Leopards were going to see as a team. 第1页 第2页 |
