During the 1994 Taipei mayoral election, Zhao Shaokang criticized Chen Shui-bian for his independence stance and fake smile, but Chen Shui-bian ultimately won the election based on "happiness and hope".
The Taipei mayoral election has become fierce. The Kuomintang has recently changed its strategy and launched a fierce attack on Shen Boyang, the Taipei mayoral candidate of the Democratic Progressive Party. In this regard, veteran media person Huang Weihan said that when Chen Shui-bian ran for mayor of Taipei, he was also attacked by his opponent Zhao Shaokang, but A-Bian's "smile" became the key to victory. On the day of the recent Da'an Wenshan car sweeps, Shen Boyang specially wore a jersey with a "flag armband" and asked former President Tsai Ing-wen to bless him. It is obvious that Green Camp knows exactly "how to win."
Huang Weihan posted on social media today that in 1994, the Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall held a "Taipei Mayor's Debate" with an "ancient mythical beast" level. On the court, Zhao Shaokang was full of fire, beating A-Bian from the left and scolding Huang Dazhou from the right. He mainly criticized A-Bian for three things: Taiwan independence, not loving the Republic of China, and fake smiles.
Huang Weihan believes that comparing this year's election, the blue camp and Shen Boyang are basically the same. It is a lie to say that Shen Boyang is a black bear who pursues Taiwan independence. He used to be fierce in the Legislative Yuan but now smiles on his face. The blue camp’s attack method is clear, how should the green camp defend? A Bian demonstrated this 32 years ago.
Huang Weihan pointed out that Zhao Shaokang said that A-Bian "fake smiles" back then, but A-Bian still continued to laugh because his main themes were "happiness, hope, Chen Shui-bian". If you want to be happy, you have to laugh; the rotation of political parties can bring hope, which is the key to A-Bian's victory. Four years later, Ah Bian and Ma Ying-jeou fought again, with fewer smiles and more curses. In 1998, it became a war between "local dogs and poodles"; the choice became "bun buns and pizza", and newspapers were publicly torn up in protest. As a result, despite having a municipal satisfaction rating of over 70%, his vote share increased from 43% to 46%. In a one-on-one election, A-Bian could not win against Ma Ying-jeou, a political star in the blue camp.
Of course, 30 years later, the "blue outnumbers green" voter structure in Taipei City has long changed, but winning over the middle voters and the ROC faction is still the key. Huang Weihan pointed out that on the day of the Da'an Wenshan car sweeps, Shen Boyang specially wore a jersey with a "national flag armband" and asked Tsai Ing-wen, who had "twice won more than half of the votes in the North City," to give her blessing. It was obvious that Green Camp knew "how to win." "Happiness, hope, Chen Shui-bian"; "warmth, breaking the circle, Shen Boyang". Persisting in smiling, insisting on breaking the circle, and insisting on talking about municipal affairs are the keys to Shen Boyang's miraculous comeback and victory.
