Jiang Qichen went to Dongshi Night Market on the 7th to pray for votes. He hung his pillow on his chest, and you could see that his nose was particularly protruding. Jiang Qichen said that everyone is welcome to "touch their nose" to seek luck, because his big nose has become a special feature. He used to be asked to touch his nose, which was a bit troublesome, so the team made a Q-version pillow for everyone to touch.
In this regard, Li Zhenghao pointed out in the "New Taiwan Party Online" hosted by him that in the past, Legislative Yuan Guoyu once joked that Jiang Qichen's big nose was "sexually strong", and he also directly asked Jiang Qichen's wife to confirm whether "he is powerful", which once caused controversy, but even Jiang Qichen himself used this incident as a joke during promotional activities. Now that he sees Jiang Qichen asking everyone if he wants to touch his nose when he meets someone, Li Zhenghao can't help but shout: "What on earth are your Kuomintang doing? Are you losing your mind after the election? What are you doing like this? Is this funny?"
Guest Wang Shiqi followed suit, "And he said that if you have a big nose, your wife is happy, and everyone is happy, what disgusting words are you saying? This is clearly sexual harassment of Taichung citizens!" Hsiao Jingyan, the former spokesperson of the Kuomintang on the side, tried to speak for Jiang Qichen, saying that sometimes it is just the candidate making a joke about himself, and the supporters will find it funny, but Li Zhenghao said bluntly: "People who originally supported it... will only feel disgusted when they see it!"
