On the eve of the debate, Jiang Wanan's throat was still uncomfortable. Xu Qiaoxin emphasized that he "will definitely attend": he did not want to affect the schedule because of him alone.

Tomorrow (31st) is the Taipei Mayor’s televised debate. However, Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan, who is seeking re-election, has been in poor health recently. Chiang Wanan’s campaign executive director and legislator Hsu Qiaoxin stressed in an interview on the afternoon of the 30th that he “will definitely attend tomorrow” and there is no need to adjust the time. Since the Democratic Progressive Party’s Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang, as well as the media and organizers are very busy, they do not want the debate schedule to be affected because of Chiang Wanan alone.

The media is concerned that Jiang Wanan is ill and his throat is still uncomfortable. Shen Boyang said that if he wants to adjust the time, he will cooperate. In this regard, Legislator Xu Qiaoxin emphasized in an interview in the afternoon that first of all, there is no need to adjust the time, because it was difficult to coordinate the time. I believe Committee Member Shen is also very busy. In addition, the media and the units that have worked hard to organize the event do not want the schedule to be affected because of Mayor Jiang Wanan.

Xu Qiaoxin also explained that it is not just two people who have influence. If the debate is to be rescheduled, in addition to the two candidates, it will be a huge burden for media friends, organizers, etc. In fact, no matter what, he will definitely attend tomorrow. He just hopes that Mayor Jiang Wanan will take good care of his health these two days, face the public with the brightest and most confident side, explain his four years of political achievements to everyone, as well as his next vision, and strive for re-election opportunities. He hopes that citizens will go out to vote for Jiang Wanan on November 28.

In addition, regarding the debate process, Xu Qiaoxin said that when Luo Zhiqiang was the negotiation representative, he emphasized that there must be cross-examination. Although the process seemed very complicated, he also hoped that this would attract more Taipei citizens to care about Taipei City's municipal administration and Taipei's future.

The media also asked, is it difficult to master the rhythm of cross-examination? For example, if you don't answer the drug question correctly, will you lose points in the eyes of voters? Xu Qiaoxin said that it depends on who is being asked, "It probably won't be the case for Commissioner Shen, because no matter what question is asked, Shen Boyang seems to be able to answer it, but whether there is content is another matter."
