At the end of the year, the nine-in-one election has entered a fever pitch. Xie Jinhe, chairman of Caixin Media, issued an article pointing out that according to polls, Chinese people’s positive evaluation of the current situation of the overall economy has been higher than negative evaluation for two consecutive months. Among them, the positive energy that AI has brought to Taiwan’s economy has been the most felt by Taipei people. Strongly, although some people think that Yangliu is just a bluff, he feels that Taipei City has many economic voters and is the city that will benefit the most from the AI wave. Voters will be more sensitive to the economy than other cities, and President Lai Ching-te’s trust and satisfaction are both above the 50% threshold. Xie Jinhe also mentioned that Shen Boyang challenged Jiang Wanan, and the quality of the candidates gradually made many people look forward to seeing another person.
Xie Jinhe posted a post on Facebook titled "Economic Variables in this Year's Local Elections" and pointed out that he looked at the two months of August and September together regarding Dai Li's Taiwan public opinion survey, and there were several points worth paying attention to! The first is the Chinese people’s evaluation of the current situation of the overall economy. The negative evaluation has not changed. The positive evaluation in September was slightly lower than that in August, but it was still higher than the negative evaluation for two consecutive months.

Xie Jinhe said that the positive energy that AI has brought to Taiwan's economy is felt most strongly by Taipei people. As many as 63.4% have positive evaluations and only 27.8% have negative evaluations. This phenomenon is unique to Taipei City. New Taipei City's positive and negative evaluations are both 45.4%, which is a tie. Most of them fall within this range. This economic situation may also be reflected in this local election.
Xie Jinhe analyzed that Taipei City has become the focus of most attention in Taiwan. Everyone is watching what will happen to the ocean current cyclone rolled up by Shen Boyang? In July, he participated in an event held by Beishike and was on the same stage as Shen Boyang. After carefully observing Shen's conversation and the reaction of interacting with the public, Xie Jinhe couldn't help but say that Shen is the most outstanding emerging political figure in the past 20 years.
Xie Jinhe bluntly said that the ocean current had not yet risen at that time. This momentum gradually detonated from Shipai Night Market and Gongguan Night Market until Shen accepted an exclusive interview with Wang Weizhong, and the ocean current finally found an outlet to detonate. When momentum builds, even a sugar cane from the Tuigong Temple can become a big deal.
Xie Jinhe pointed out that some people think that the ocean current is just a bluff, and will end up with the fate of rising high and falling like a big strike! But he doesn't see it that way. He has listened to every episode of Watson's Commentary and feels that Taipei has a large number of economic voters and is the city that has benefited the most from the AI wave. Voters are more aware of the economy than other cities.
Xie Jinhe mentioned that the other is that the trust and satisfaction level for President Lai Qingde are both above the 50% threshold. This level of support is very different from the hatred level full of last year's general recall. What is even more noteworthy is that the public's acceptance of "one country, two systems" is extremely low, with a distaste for the Chinese Communist Party as high as 73.5% and a favorable rating of only 7.5%. This also shows that Taiwanese people's identification with the land has increased.
Xie Jinhe emphasized that in the recent New Taipei City mayoral election, the Kuomintang was making great efforts, and only one of the five candidates was missing, Chairman Zheng Liwen. This phenomenon is also very special. This time Shen Boyang challenged Jiang Wanan. At first, everyone had the attitude of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor. Unexpectedly, the election campaign started and the quality of the candidates was judged. Many people gradually looked forward to seeing another person! Xie Jinhe said bluntly that the remaining 50 days of competition will definitely be great!
