Scholar Ye Yaoyuan analyzed that this is a cognitive operation by China's Ministry of National Security to intervene in Taiwan's elections through Hong Kong forces, aiming to deepen Taiwan's social opposition and polarization and have a negative impact on the democratic process.

Ming Chuan University communication scholar Du Shengcong analyzed that although the ocean current makes the election suspense, its power may be overestimated. The key to whether Taipei can be overturned lies in whether the turnout can increase significantly and whether voters who support Chiang can be persuaded to switch.

The Beijing election campaign "alarmed China's rescue". Lawyer said Jiang Wanan: It is difficult to raise one's head in front of Beijing.

China's Taiwan Affairs Office sanctioned Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang's father's company for the second time today, demanding he "prove his innocence." Lawyer Chen Yikai said that a local election in Taiwan alarmed Beijing's rescue, which showed that Shen's father was very clean, and sarcastically said that "the son will probably never be able to hold his head high in front of Beijing."
