The Hsinchu County Magistrate election is fierce. Xu Weiyuan, spokesman for the Kuomintang Xu Xinying campaign office, cited media reports today (2nd), criticizing candidate Zheng Chaofang's family for being involved in the 180,000-square-meter land change case in Zhudong's "Shenqu Village" and questioning his avoidance of important matters. In this regard, Zheng Chaofang's campaign Office spokesman Luo Zihuai immediately counterattacked, emphasizing that Zheng Chaofang strictly rejected the Shenqu village change case and that the county government had no relevant records. He criticized his opponent for spreading rumors and would file a lawsuit. The two sides later exchanged fire over "underworld pressure" and the "spiritual bone tower project", making the land issue the focus of the hot war.
Xu Weiyuan was the first to question. Reports pointed out that Zheng Chaofang's father Zheng Yongjin and his family were involved in changing the recreational land of Zhudong Shenqu Village into funeral land and land resources. Zheng himself also attended the relevant dinner. He criticized that various questions related to huge profits, ranging from campaign cash flow, illegal construction of farmhouses to the case of gods going to the village, but Zheng Chaofang repeatedly evaded it, asking Zheng Chaofang to explain whether he cooperated with the consortium to develop or to raise concerns about the land case with the county government, and to accept the test openly and honestly.
In this regard, Luo Zihuai solemnly clarified that Zheng Chaofang and County Magistrate Yang Wenke had the same position and strictly rejected the Shenqu Village change proposal. If elected, he would not build a new funeral park and ossuary tower during his term. He pointed out that Zheng Chaofang was only invited to attend a banquet at the county magistrate's official residence. Shenqu Village was not mentioned during the dinner, and the County Government's Industrial Development Department confirmed that "there are no relevant case records." He criticized Xu Xinying for relying on smear campaign because she has no political achievements, and asked, "Will the ten-billion ossuary pagoda and Miaotian business in Guanxi Town continue to develop their ambitions?" He said that he has prepared all the evidence and will file a lawsuit with the Hsinchu District Prosecutor's Office to stop the slander.
However, Xu Weiyuan issued a statement for the second time in the afternoon, pointing out that the Zheng Chaofang camp's response to the Zhubei Funeral Park in response to the Zhudong land case was a typical "reversal of the read." He further asked Zheng Chaofang: "Do you want to ask your brother first if any underworld forces were used to pressure the whistleblower?" He emphasized that since the evidence collection has not been completed, why rush to denounce the case, and called on the Zheng family and his son to tell the truth to be responsible to the county people.
Luo Zihuai counterattacked again, saying that Xu Xinying's camp "turns a blind eye" to the facts that do not conform to its own script, which is the "reversal of the read". When the original tourist resort "Shen Qu Village" was developed, the person who publicly supported and attended the signing ceremony was County Magistrate Qiu Jingchun. The official website of the county government still has records to this day. By 2023, as reported, the county magistrate who held the administrative power of the county government and was asked for his opinion on land changes was Yang Wenke. The above two incidents have nothing to do with Mayor Zheng Chaofang, and they are smeared without any evidence and put the blame of the unknown whistleblower on Mayor Zheng Chaofang.
Luo Zihuai called on Xu Xinying to come forward and clearly explain her relationship with Miaotian-related businesses, as well as her position on the subsequent development of the Kansai Casket Pagoda business. Public interests cannot be brought out only when attacking opponents. When it is your turn, you will "read it and you will not be able to read it back."
