Are there blue and white flowers in Hualien? People's Party Chairman Huang Guochang has never relented in his support for You Shuzhen. Today it finally became clear. Huang Guochang went to Hualien today and attended both the morning and afternoon trips with You Shuzhen, the Kuomintang candidate for Hualien County Mayor. Huang Guochang said that he hopes that Dai Yuwen will be elected as mayor and You Shuzhen will be elected as county magistrate, so that "county and city cooperation" can be achieved and everyone can move Hualien forward together.

Huang Guochang led members of the Central Committee to Hualien on the 23rd. When he accompanied Dai Yuwen, the Hualien mayoral candidate of the People's Party, to hold a policy briefing, he never made a positive statement on whether the People's Party supported "Fu Kunqi's successor" You Shuzhen in the election of county magistrate. However, the situation has changed significantly today. In the morning When he went to the Renli Market in Ji'an Township to help village representatives campaign, he shook hands with Kuomintang Hualien County Mayor candidate You Shuzhen for the first time. In the afternoon, when Huang Guochang accompanied Dai Yuwen to hold a parent-child Mid-Autumn Festival party at the Hualien Civic Square, he even took the initiative to invite You Shuzhen to participate, demonstrating the atmosphere of blue-white cooperation.

Dai Yuwen promised that if he is elected mayor, in addition to increasing the newborn subsidy by 10,000 yuan, he will also promote the "Park Cooling Plan" and increase green shades and drinking water facilities in parks. He believes that "County Mayor You Shuzhen will definitely support it strongly in the future."

You Shuzhen said that Chairman Huang Guochang’s close cooperation with the Kuomintang can be seen in many bills such as the Legislative Yuan’s fiscal revenue and expenditure division law. She believes that in the future, as long as it is a proposal from the Kuomintang, “we will also study it,” and the common purpose is to make Hualien better.
