Taipei Mayor Chiang Wanan’s exclusive interview with media personality Tang Xianglong yesterday (9th) triggered heated discussions. Lawyer Huang Diying said today (10th) that Jiang Wanan chose "Stratospheric" programs such as Zhongtian and Tang Xianglong for exclusive interviews. In contrast, Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Boyang of the Democratic Progressive Party, in order to clearly explain his political views and dare to face off, appeared on "Stratospheric" programs with different positions, such as senior media figures Zhao Shaokang, Wang Weizhong, Li Siduan and Ping Xiulin. In contrast to the two, Jiang Wanan's discussion of his own municipal government clearly seems guilty. What is even more embarrassing is that Jiang Wanan was not only questioned about his municipal incompetence, but also made frequent mistakes in highly friendly stratospheric interviews, which eventually turned into a public opinion disaster that left jokes, bad comments and irritated citizens.
Huang Diying posted a post on Facebook today listing the specific controversies during the interview with Jiang Wanan, pointing out that when Jiang Wanan was asked about the municipal planning for the next four years on the Zhongtian program "Green Table", he shouted "Create the future" after a few seconds on the spot. "Then he was unable to explain the connection with the municipal government, which made the host stunned for a while. Jiang Wanan's 'Create the future' became an Internet joke, with various mocking videos and pictures."

Huang Diying went on to say that when Chiang Wanan was asked about the core issue of the Kuomintang's recognition of the Chinese people on Tang Xianglong's program "Viewpoint│Long Xing Tian Xia", he once again showed an evasive attitude of "asking A and answering B", which angered the host on the spot. In the end, the host left a vicious comment: "If his surname was not Chiang, he might not even be the mayor of Taipei now."
Faced with the recent political situation in which the gap in polls has narrowed, Chiang Wanan openly complained in an exclusive interview, "When he was elected as a legislator 10 years ago, he had never experienced that voters in Taiwan and even Taipei had become so irrational. Chiang Wanan violated the taboo of democratic politics by calling voters irrational."
Huang Diying finally criticized, "Jiang Wanan is irrational by choking voters, which is a taboo in democratic politics. Jiang Wanan's exclusive interview turned out to be the mayor of Sanbao: his jokes and bad comments choked the citizens." After seeing the post, netizens left messages one after another. Some said, "Is he stupid? Is he a fish? Is he pretending? Chinatown has been around for too long" and "Idiot prince".
