Jiang Wanan merges with Huang Guochang for live broadcast tonight! Wu Jingyi is bitter: Return to the blue and white deep water area

Quick Look

  • Media person Wu Jingyi pointed out that Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan has been interviewed continuously by Guo Zhengliang and Tang Xianglong, and will be broadcast live tonight with People's Party Chairman Huang Guochang.
  • The essence is to strengthen the negative party identity of Blue and White and use joint opposition to the Democratic Progressive Party to consolidate the basic base.
  • However, this strategy polarizes politics and sacrifices its original image of moderate and rational establishment elites.

AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

The Taipei mayoral election is coming soon. In order to fight for re-election, Jiang Wanan actively participated in various media interviews and live broadcasts in an attempt to expand his influence. There has been frequent cooperation between Blue and White in recent times, but at the same time there has been criticism within the Blue camp against those who are deemed not to be loyal enough, reflecting the tension between intra-party integration and external expansion.

Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan has been interviewed by Guo Zhengliang and Tang Xianglong, and tonight he will have a live broadcast with People's Party Chairman Huang Guochang. Regarding this, media person Wu Jingyi said, is the "hate the DPP" this sacred card still useful? Shen Boyang crossed the blue-green stratosphere, and Jiang Wanan approached Huang Guochang to consolidate the blue-white identity! Tsai Kang-yong was pressured by China, and Zhao Shaokang and Wang Weizhong were scolded, revealing the two faces of political polarization!

Wu Jingyi said in a Facebook PO post that Jiang Wanan has been interviewed by Guo Zhengliang and Tang Xianglong one after another, and will appear on Huang Guochang's live broadcast tonight. This layout is to strengthen Blue and White's "negative party identification"! Consolidate the base by rallying supporters through common opposition. This live broadcast will be Jiang Wanan's tactic to once again arouse his "hatred of the DPP" in order to fight against Shen Boyang, using Huang Guochang's incendiary insults to intensify the election situation and drive hatred. However, voters in the middle of this year have already taken sides, and Blue and White continue to intensify political confrontation. How many new votes can they get?

Wu Jingyi pointed out that Jiang Wanan’s anxiety brought the election campaign into political extremes; on one hand, the CCP was eager to catch “traitors” to sacrifice the flag, and on the other hand, the Lanying family was busy catching “black sheep” for witch hunts. The Taiwan Affairs Office of the other side of the Taiwan Strait and the military media were unabashedly hegemonic and intimidating. Tsai Kang-yong only showed his face across the border. China immediately labeled him as a "two-faced man" and cut off Taiwanese companies at the speed of light; the "black sheep effect" within the Blue Camp, Zhao Shaokang is the blue flag bearer of the battle, and Wang Weizhong is the cultural indicator of the military village. The two invited Shen Boyang to visit Shen Boyang based on their media expertise and traffic. The result was overwhelming condemnation from the Deep Blue grassroots.

Wu Jingyi continued to point out, what was Jiang Wanan’s biggest brand asset in the past? He is a moderate, rational, and municipal-first "establishment elite", but now he has chosen to tie himself into Huang Guochang's high-tension, highly emotional and critical style of God of War. What does this look like? Just like borrowing usury from political underground banks, the Kuomintang had to owe a huge favor to the Kuomintang again, and using political morphine to cover up election anxiety. While Shen Boyang was dismantling the stratosphere, Jiang Wanan was taking his own path narrower and narrower, retreating into the deep blue and white waters.

Wu Jingyi bluntly said that what is really worth discussing in the Taipei election is not who heats up the stratosphere the hottest, but who can open the door to public discussion wider. Jiang Wanan chose the narrow door that Huang Guochang helped him open. It may seem convenient, but for the Kuomintang, the price is quite expensive!
