[Entertainment Channel/Comprehensive Report] Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang held a campaign headquarters inauguration meeting on the 4th. Well-known host Cai Kangyong showed up in a low-key manner without warning and was captured, triggering China's little pink to shout for ban. Some Blue and White supporters also went to Cai Kangyong's Facebook to criticize him for running to support Shen Boyang.

Tsai Kang-yong made a low-key appearance at the founding meeting of the campaign headquarters. Internet celebrity "Taiwanese goddess" Xu Guan believes that only Tsai Kang-yong knows whether Tsai Kang-yong will really vote for Shen Boyang. "But the person who decided to vote for Shen Boyang because he saw Tsai Kang-yong at the scene is the key." He emphasized that there are not too many votes.

As for whether he will also visit Jiang Wanan in the future? Showing his high EQ, he said: "It would be great if I had the opportunity to interview every candidate."

Tsai Kang-yong's agent later said: "We are considering interviewing the two candidates for Taipei mayor, so we will try our best to understand the processes and opinions of the two candidates."
