[Entertainment Channel/Comprehensive Report] Taipei City Councilor Li Baiyi recently took his daughter to the hospital emergency room. Suspected to be dissatisfied with the waiting and medication disposal process, he scolded the medical staff in the emergency room at high decibels, which triggered criticism from the outside world. Unexpectedly, some netizens found out what Li Boyi said on the political commentary program "News Face to Face" when he talked about the controversy over Chiang Wanan's son's trip to the United States, "I would rather sacrifice my political life." Now, in light of the recent turmoil, he is being criticized for being "the strongest manifestation king!"

Li Boyi said in the program at that time that as a father, he would want his children to be healthy and happy and would not care about his own political future. He emphasized, "When you have children, especially in today's society, it is so difficult to have children. I want my children to make sacrifices and choices because of my personal future. What I would rather sacrifice is my political life!" This remark was originally about discussing whether the mayor's children can participate in activities organized by the city government, but now it has been resurfaced by netizens due to the emergency incident.

Some netizens bluntly said that Li Boyi is the "most powerful manifestation king", ironically saying that he was willing to sacrifice his political life at the time, but now he has been criticized by a large number of netizens because of the emergency incident. Some even said bluntly: "For the sake of my children, I don't care about my political future!" They believed that since I have said what I said, I should "please be responsible." Some people said bitterly: "Congressman Li really does what he said, I admire him!" Someone else left a message: "I will help him, leave politics and go back to take care of my children."

In addition, there were many sarcastic comments in the relevant comments. Some netizens laughed and said, "It's so funny. I'm afraid people won't believe it. I'll do it now."

Li Boyi came forward to apologize for the emergency incident on the 8th. During the process, he shed tears and bowed many times. However, the relevant apology was still questioned by many. Jinzhong actress Ji Peihui, YouTuber "Na Na Na" and others also responded sarcastically in the community. Now, as Li Boyi's past remarks about "preferring to sacrifice his political life" have been revealed again, this sentence has become the focus of repeated ridicule among netizens.

"Zongxie 4" 18-year-old Golden Horse newcomer Hu Yuheng plays "Zhenhong" and attracts fans

18-year-old newcomer Hu Yuheng became popular with his role as "Zhenhong" in "Zongxie 4: Kuntilana", and his delicate appearance aroused discussion among the audience. He made his debut in "Boys and Girls" at the age of 14 and was nominated for the Golden Horse Award for Best New Actor. He is now a contracted actor with Maji Tijia. Off-screen, I admit to being socially anxious, but I think acting is a protective shell. During the filming in Indonesia, I couldn't open my eyes due to the ashes being smeared in the cave scene. The interrogation scene was so emotional that I almost fainted. I had to step into a real tomb to shoot the last scene before finishing the filming. I felt guilty and hallucinated during the process. During the crying scene, I was worried that my emotions would not come out, but Chen Xuezhen managed to shed tears after being reminded. His popularity increased after the film was released, but he does not often search for himself. He prefers writing novels and playing video games. He likes dark works such as Junji Ito and "Back to School". He joked that he is not afraid of ghosts and is more afraid of real humans.
