Faced with the controversy over Luo Dayou's linking childbearing with caring for the next generation, Wu Zongxian talked about the changing concepts of the times, "Before, when I was an artist in Taiwan, I would be caught and scolded for giving birth to a child out of wedlock. Now you are subsidized for having children." He believes that many concepts will change with the times. Regarding Luo Dayou's public political views, he said: "I personally admire the master for being able to express his views freely. This is democracy! It's great."
During the general recall last year, Wu Zongxian was asked about his political stance. At that time, he emphasized that artists should not differentiate between audiences. Now that he has encountered political controversy again, he said that he is both an artist and a businessman. He has never been exposed to politics in his life. He only hopes to deal with various difficult situations more calmly. He once again shouted: "There are no losers in peace, and there are no winners in war!"
Wu Zongxian rarely mentioned his family's past, "My mother's family is in Kaohsiung, and my relatives in Kaohsiung also have family members of the 228 victims... We know the pain, but we also know that that era has passed!" He said frankly that this period of history may never be over in the hearts of the elders, but people living in this generation should still reflect and introspect.
Wu Zongxian also bluntly said: "I have never expressed a political stance in my life, which does not mean that I have no stance." He believes that the rule of a democratic society is a vote. He can walk into the voting booth silently and cast a vote, or he can choose to bravely express his inner world like Luo Dayou, saying: "Peaceful coexistence, the world can be a better place."
