Facing the announcement of Hon Hai Chairman Taiming Gou and the polls continue to lead the possible candidates of the Democratic Progressive Party, the Tsai Ing-wen authorities used the "red-smearing" tricks used on Kaohsiung Mayor Han Kuo-yu on Guo. Some Taiwanese media bluntly stated that the more they randomly "paint the red" they are, the more they show that the DPP has no political achievements and has to rely on the squid tactics to "paint the red" and fight the smell.
According to Taiwan's pro-green Liberty Times on the 25th, Xu Yongming, the legislator of "The Power of the Times", said that the "Industrial Fulian" listed by the China Stock Exchange and the "Fu Zhikang" listed by the Hong Kong Stock Exchange received relevant subsidies from the mainland government alone reached 4.333 billion yuan (NT$, the same below). "4.3 billion yuan election is more than enough, which will not only affect the media, but also affect the election." The Mainland Affairs Council responded that the mainland is accustomed to using subsidy policies to promote industrial development, and most Taiwanese businessmen in mainland China accept subsidies or preferential measures. Some Taiwanese media mentioned that China Want Want Holdings Co., Ltd. had previously issued a statement on this, stating that government subsidies are subsidies for investment promotion by local governments in mainland China. The Taiwanese authorities also said that it is not illegal for Taiwanese businessmen to receive subsidies in mainland China.
Terry Gou was also accused of suspected insider trading by the green camp. According to the China Times on the 25th, during an inquiry by the Democratic Progressive Party's "legislator" Yu Wanru said in the "Legislative Yuan" on the 24th that Terry Gou was thinking about the issue of running for election at the end of 2018. He invested more than 2.4 billion yuan from February 15 this year, and bought Hon Hai stocks for three consecutive months; on April 1, Guo's call for election was getting higher, and the stock soared to 80.8 yuan. On the 17th, he officially announced his candidacy, and the next day the stock price rose to 97.2 yuan, and Terry Gou's price rose by more than 17 billion yuan. Taiwan's "Securities and Exchange Law" stipulates that after the management knows that the company will have major news that will affect the stock price, it cannot buy and sell the company's shares until it is released to 18 hours after it is released. Yu Wanru said that according to the above regulations, Guo bought Hon Hai stocks in large quantities after he was determined to elect the "president", which may involve "inside transactions".
However, "Chairman of the Financial Commission" Gu Lixiong believes that running for the election of "president" is a personal plan, and Guo's stock price did rise on the day of the election, but it fell for several days afterwards. Taiwan's "Stock Exchange" believes that Hon Hai has not violated major information regulations. Legal people say that this case is "rare among the rare". Since there are no relevant examples to follow, it is difficult to judge whether "participating in the Kuomintang presidential primary election" constitutes a definition of "major information". Sun Mingde, director of the "Taiwan Economic Academy" Prosperity Forecasting Center, also said on the 25th that the performance of the Taiwan Stock Exchange is actually related to the international market. This time, there are entrepreneurs running for the election, and it is inevitable that there are some Lenovo , "But Trump president was elected. Is US real estate particularly good? No, either."
Previously, the Green Camp had raised questions about the Communist Party branch of Hon Hai. According to TVBS TV, the Democratic Progressive Party recently claimed that Hon Hai Group not only supports the economic development of the mainland, but also set up party branches in 2001 at the request of the mainland. As of September 2017, there were 1,030 party branches in various parks in Hon Hai. "Legislator" Lin Junxian also questioned, "One day if Taiwan and China have conflicts of interests, Terry Gou will you stand on which side? I don't want a businessman to be without a motherland." In response, the Kuomintang "legislator" Jiang Qichen said that under other people's systems, "You say that even if you are a red enterprise, I think if you divide it like this, there may be many Taiwanese businessmen who will be red enterprises." According to the China Times, Tsai Ing-wen recently claimed that as long as the Kuomintang candidates come up, "we will enter the process of unification and maintain sovereignty will be gone."
In addition to facing the "red" of the green camp, Terry Gou also has to face his wife's incomprehension. On the 25th, he said bluntly that he had a lot of pressure to run for the election. His wife Zeng Xinying was very opposed and had run away from home. The two had not met for a week, so he had to go home to be a dad after get off work. As for my mother, she is "silently supporting me". Terry Gou also said that "peace, stability, economy, and future" are his main axis of campaign. He runs for election not to make a penny more, but to reverse Taiwan's political ecology.
US Fortune magazine said "Trump in Taiwan?" 》 points out two major problems of Terry Gou: one is to face the challenge of the super popular mayor of Kaohsiung Han Kuo-yu, and the other is that Hon Hai has many factories in mainland China. Some media on the island said that it is not the first time that the Kuomintang was "porn" by the Democratic Progressive Party. Looking back at the "general election" in 2008, Ma Ying-jeou was "porn" and said that once he was elected, "men can't find a job, women can't find a husband, and children can't be sent to Heilongjiang." As a result, Ma Ying-jeou has been "president" for 8 years, and it seems that no child has been forced to go to Heilongjiang. "On the other hand, if the Democratic Progressive Party has a good election, why should it slander the Kuomintang in a silence?"
United News Network said that Guo Taiming's atmospheric response after Han Kuo-yu issued a five-point statement gave him a lot of points, but he has been the leader of a large enterprise for a long time and has never been able to bend and stretch like Han Kuo-yu, and has won the heartfelt recognition of supporters from the common people. In particular, fighting online information competition has become a trend. Whether the supporters are strong enough may become the key to the victory or defeat of the "general election".
