The Democratic Progressive Party's Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang and the current Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan's camp are negotiating to hold an election debate. Since August, they have signed debate invitation letters with five media (including Liberty Times and China Television). However, the two sides have differences on the venue and time of the debate.
The Democratic Progressive Party's Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang and Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan's camps held pre-debate consultations yesterday. However, the two sides had different opinions on the venue and time of the debate, and they had their own interpretations. Among them, Blue Camp representative Luo Zhiqiang told the media after the meeting that they could "1+1" game, but Chiang's attitude was "one game as usual", and even his own family members were inconsistent. In response to this, Shen Boyang was sweeping the streets at Ziqiang Market in Beitou District today and responded, "Can the two of them debate it first so that they can agree on what they say to the outside world?"
Shen Boyang said that since August, all five media outlets (the fifth is jointly organized by "Liberty Times", "China Television", etc.) have signed consent letters for the debate invitation. They have been waiting for almost two months. "We have always been the waiting party." Therefore, it is not Shen Ying who chooses which media can host the debate. "It is the other party who is choosing, and the date is also proposed by the other party. We are the party that continues to cooperate."

Shen Boyang pointed out that it was regrettable that Jiang Ying deliberately released news about escaping from the battlefield and so on. "Let me just say, you can argue now! From August to now, I don't know which sentence the opponent can't understand?" He teased Jiang Wanan, "Maybe the municipal government is really busy and he only has time on October 31." Otherwise, he couldn't think of any other reason why he couldn't debate right away.
Shen Boyang mentioned that no matter what, consensus must be sought in the end. Everyone has seen that Shen Ying is the one who always gives in. "We agree to everything, and the other party wants everything. We let the other party decide everything." Under such a situation, it depends on whether we can quickly set the date. The media asked, so it was Jiang Ying who proposed October 31st? Wasn't it proposed by the organizer? Shen said that October 31 was the date proposed by the other party during coordination.
Faced with Luo Zhiqiang telling the media after consultation yesterday that "1+1" could be played, but Jiang Wanan said "one game as usual"; Shen Boyang laughed and said, "The two of them can debate it first to see if they can agree on the external statement, okay?"
