Taiwan's "Central News Agency" and China Times News Network and other Taiwanese media reported on August 1 that artist Zhou Yumin and his wife Yu Hongyuan had previously insured a 6-year high-value savings insurance. The insurance broker Feng, who was in charge, is friends with Yu Hongyuan. She used Yu Hongyuan's trust and successively charged Yu Hongyuan cash directly on the grounds that huge transfers would be checked and might be mistaken for money laundering. She defrauded more than 34.47 million NT$1 (approximately RMB 7.75 million). The Taipei District Prosecutor's Office today (1st) prosecuted Ms. Feng's surname for "fraud".

reported that the prosecution pointed out that Ms. Feng and Yu Hongyuan are friends. The two signed a 6-year savings insurance in 2018. Both the insured and the insured were Vic Chou.

Ms. Feng lied to Yu Hongyuan in April and May 2019 that if the payment is made by transfer, the insurance fee amount may cause tax inspection by the tax department, and the Financial Management Department mistakenly considers money laundering. She asked Yu Hongyuan to pay the premium in cash and then she would pay the money to the life insurance company on behalf of the insurance broker.
The prosecutor found out that Yu Hongyuan handed over the second, third and fourth phases of insurance fees to Ms. Feng from May 2019 to September 2021. Ms. Feng lied that if she prepaid the 5th and 6th phases of insurance fees, she would receive a prepaid discount of more than NT$3.47 million. Yu Hongyuan later handed over the 5th and 6th phases of insurance fees to Ms. Feng respectively. Yu Hongyuan successively delivered more than NT$34.47 million to Ms. Feng.
Yu Hongyuan received information on insurance fees from life insurance companies in October 2021, and then he found out that he was cheated and called the police to deal with it. On August 1, the Taipei District Prosecutor's Office prosecuted Ms. Feng for "fraud".
Zhou Yumin's agency responded to this at noon today, saying: "Everything is left to the lawyer and full judicial authority."
