Recently, Taiwanese artist Rainie Yang mentioned in a program that she "had never eaten any seafood" when she was a child. After the program was broadcast, it quickly attracted the attention of Taiwanese netizens, and many Taiwanese media people and politicians were even more annoyed by this sentence.

This content that has attracted widespread attention from all walks of life in Taiwan comes from Zhejiang Satellite TV , a variety show called " And Poetry and Far East ". The episode where Rainie Yang's content was broadcast 2 months ago.
But recently, someone on the island found Rainie Yang said in this show, "I grew up in Taipei, but I am from Guangdong." After the content of this video was dug out, it aroused the siege of many pro-green media and politicians in Taiwan.
Another part that made these people on the island feel indignant is a subsequent conversation in the episode. When talking about eating seafood with other guests, Rainie Yang said that she "had never eaten any seafood in Taiwan" because her family "had a great economic pressure in her early years" and "eating seafood there (referring to Taiwan) is also a luxury."
From the complete dialogue context, Rainie Yang's opinion about not eating seafood was mainly attributed to the fact that her family was not very financially in her childhood, but for those who were too sensitive or had ulterior motives, Rainie Yang's words meant "eating seafood in Taiwan is very luxurious" and "living in Taiwan is not good."
According to this interpretation, Taiwanese media reported on Rainie Yang's words in succession, and many well-known people on the island took the lead in leading the pace, causing many Taiwanese netizens to accuse Rainie Yang of "spoiling Taiwan" in mainland China programs.
Among these people, there are Taiwanese politicians Zhou Chunmi and Pan Mengan. They posted photos of themselves eating seafood on their social media accounts, and also posted a message saying that "eating seafood in Taiwan is never a luxury, but an ordinary happiness."
Many followers cheered for the speeches of these two people, which was a "slap in the face" and "fight back" to Rainie Yang.

. The DPP politicians led by Wang Huimei are full of threats. They deliberately ignored the context of Rainie Yang's speech, exaggerated her personal experience to "belief Taiwan for the sake of earning RMB", and also deducted her the big hat of "forgeting her roots for self-interest."
These people also called on their supporters to post more photos of eating seafood online to prove that "Taiwan can afford seafood", claiming to use these photos to "repel acid" (strike back) Rainie Yang.
htmlOn September 5, Chen Jizhong, the head of Taiwan's agricultural department, also joined the farce of "drawing the target by yourself" and emphasized in the interview video that he had just eaten seafood porridge , which is very rich in ingredients, and only spent 120 yuan NT$ .This "encirclement and suppression" against Rainie Yang is becoming increasingly widening. Even the Taiwanese writer Ku Ling , who has always had a relatively anti-Mainland position, could not stand it anymore. He posted a message saying that Rainie Yang's words were just talking about her teenage life, and did not involve evaluation of Taiwan, and called on everyone to understand the original words before commenting.
Some people agree with Ku Ling's statement, but many Taiwanese netizens still insist that Rainie Yang's statement is "very intentional".
Under the siege of these people, Rainie Yang recently closed her message function on multiple social media platforms, and it has not been opened so far.
