The recent preparations for the "Shamei Art Festival" by the public have aroused enthusiastic response. Recently, there are rumors on the Internet that someone plans to follow the same example and plan to stage "The Civet Cat for the Crown Prince" in Taipei City. This has caused many Taiwanese netizens to worry about increasing hatred and mobilizing counter-attacks to hurt the election. In this regard, DPP Taipei City Councilor candidate Ma Yuwen today (27th) reported the latest statement of Taipei Mayor candidate Shen Boyang. Shen Boyang solemnly emphasized "I strongly disagree" and reiterated that the main focus of the election campaign should be to test municipal and governance capabilities, and personal past, family and life experience should not be the focus.

Chen Xingyu, the daughter of former President Chen Shui-bian, recently encountered a marital crisis. People spontaneously launched the "Shamei Art Festival" to support and spark discussion. However, there have been recent rumors on social platforms that some people are trying to copy this model and are planning a show called "Civet Cat for Prince" in Taipei City, which is suspected to be aimed at the rumors about the life experience of the current mayor Chiang Wanan. After this news was exposed, many supporters of the Green Camp and Taiwanese factions warned that such operations might become a unnecessary mobilization of negative hatred and even affect Shen Boyang, who is striving to overturn the election of the mayor of the capital.

Ma Yuwen posted an article on Threads today to relay Shen Boyang's latest response. Shen Boyang said that he had made his attitude clear at the beginning of the election campaign. Whether it was targeting other people's past, family or background, it should not be a factor in this election campaign. These are not the main themes that voters care about at all; what he cares about is only the municipal performance of the incumbent and whether his governance ability is sufficient. If someone deliberately tries to sensationalize the issue of life experience, "I personally disagree very much."

Shen Boyang emphasized, "I completely disapprove of this kind of thing. This has nothing to do with whether he has sold tickets or whether he has written the script. Whether I approve or not, this is completely irrelevant. I don't approve, just disapprove."

  • ?Is there really a group planning the show "Civet Cat for Prince"?

Trump carefully choreographed diplomatic rituals. Wu Jialong analyzed: The essence is forcing Xi Jinping to swallow it.

The "Trump-Xi meeting" between the heads of state of the United States and China did not sign a joint statement and there was no substantial policy breakthrough. General economist Wu Jialong analyzed that the entire visit was essentially a carefully choreographed diplomatic ceremony by Trump. Under the guise of receiving the highest standards, he essentially exerted tough and soft power on Beijing, forcing Xi Jinping to accept the U.S. position.
