2022 Taipei mayoral elections in the blue, green and white confrontation. People First Party Chairman Song Chuyu became the focus of the media because he did not stand on the stage for Taipei mayoral candidate Huang Shanshan, who ran for non-party elections. Huang Shanshan announced on the 6th that Li Hongyuan, the former head of the internal affairs department of the Taiwan authorities, would serve as the general counsel of the campaign team. Because Li is from the Kuomintang and has a close relationship with Song Chuyu, the outside world abandons Lenovo . Li Hongyuan said that as long as it is not green, there is nothing that cannot be combined. Kuomintang candidate Jiang Wanan pointed out that Li Hongyuan is his very respected senior, and of course he would like to help him with the opportunity. He hopes that Li can assist Taipei City in its development. Hong Kong media observation pointed out that Zhang Zhaoxiong and Li Hongyuan, the founding vice-chairman of the People First Party, have successively stood up for Huang Shanshan, and there are also public offices in the Orange Camp to join the Huang team. Is Song Chuyu supporting Huang in the dark or is he in a swaying state? It makes the outside world curious.
Huang Shanshan's newly established campaign headquarters is located at the intersection of Zhongxiao East Road and Guangfu South Road in Taipei City, diagonally opposite the "big dome". The campaign headquarters is mainly white, and the main axis of the campaign is "TAIPEI K33P GOING (Taipei Keep going)," symbolizing the integration of the chairman of the Taiwan People's Party and mayor of Taipei Ke Wen-je and "white power". The three transparent floor-to-ceiling windows allow passers-by to see clearly what is being done in General Jing at any time, and also symbolizes the element of "openness and transparency".
Huang Shanshan announced her resignation on August 28 and ran for election press conference. Zhang Zhaoxiong, the founding vice chairman of the People First Party, sat in the audience with him throughout the whole process, but because she did not come to the stage to deliver a speech or participate in the group photo, Song Chuyu was not present, which aroused suspicion of the Song camp's movements. Huang Shanshan held a press conference on the morning of the 6th. Li Hongyuan was invited to attend and served as the general policy consultant of the campaign team and personally endorsed Huang Shanshan's urban renewal political views, with some shadow of Song Chuyu.
Li Hongyuan said that many county and city mayors are unwilling to do it even more because they need to demolish the house. Whether to do the right thing or to please others is difficult to grasp. He said that choosing to do the right thing will cost you, but one day the people will miss you. If you do something to please people, you don’t have to choose. There are too many such people. Li Hongyuan and Chen Shizhong's toilet policy pointed out that disaster prevention and urban renewal is the most priority issue for Taipei citizens, "far more than toilets that are exempt from treatment."
As for whether Song Chuyu is in the center to promote this fusion, Huang Shanshan said that she is an old friend of Li Hongyuan and does not need to go through anyone. Li Ye revealed that he met Huang Shanshan in 1996 and came to endorse Huang, and Song Chuyu didn't know.
Li Hongyuan also emphasized that although he is a permanent member of the Kuomintang, there is nothing that cannot be discussed, so don’t be too politicized. Lin Jiaxing , vice chairman of the Kuomintang Cultural and Communication Association, said that Li was appointed as Huang Shanshan's policy advisor because of his years of friendship and did not join the campaign team. The outside world does not need to look at this matter too politicized. Lin Jiaxing also pointed out that Li Hongyuan is a well-known water conservancy engineering expert, and many candidates are rushing to invite them. Li also supports many Kuomintang candidates and provides policy consultation.
Hong Kong "China Review News Agency" reported that Song Chuyu and Li Hongyuan had a close relationship. When Song Chuyu served as "Taiwan Governor " from 1994 to 1998, Li Hongyuan served as "Taiwan Provincial Government Water Conservancy Director" from 1997 to 1998, and Huang Shanshan was a lawyer for the "Taiwan Provincial Government River Bureau". Li Hongyuan's younger brother and currently the deputy head of the Taiwan authorities' supervisory agency, Li Hongjun is a general of the People First Party. When Song Chuyu competed for the leader of Taiwan in 2016, Li Hongyuan was invited to serve as the convener of the shadow "cabinet", and Li Hongyuan even expressed that "if he was fired by the Kuomintang, I have no objection."
"China Review News Agency" believes that it can be seen that although Li Hongyuan expressed in front of the media that "I haven't seen Song Chuyu for several years" and "Song Chuyu doesn't know I will come", Huang Shanshan from Zhang Zhaoxiong and Li Hongyuan successively stood on the stage, probably all of them were Song Chuyu's secret writings. Moreover, one person is more representative than another, and can also arouse associations from all walks of life in media operations.
Huang Shanshan has expressed in the past that "there are two partners at the election headquarters who are people-first party cadres" and "Song Chuyu even pushed the cadres over." These words are not false.Observing Huang Shanshan's campaign media group, it can be seen that the Party and League cadres of the People First Party legislative body joined in the past, and issued press releases from relevant election headquarters to the media many times. This shows that the People First Party supports Huang Shanshan's position.
"China Review News Agency" pointed out that Song Chuyu supports Huang Shanshan in the dark, which may also lead blue camp supporters to vote for Huang Shanshan. After all, Huang Shanshan has successfully poached Zhang Huanlin and Zhou Jiahong, who have switched from the Blue Camp, as deputy spokespersons of the Competition General Office. Some village heads of the Blue Camp are not afraid of party discipline to stand up for Huang Shanshan, which has also made the 2022 Blue Green and White Taipei election even more stalemate.
