Chapter 598 Making Money

There was also the Golden Horse Awards incident, where Tao was the host. Gong Li refused to go on stage to accept the award because of the presenter's reactionary remarks, which earned her widespread praise from mainland netizens.

However, when introducing the award winners, Tao Jingying skipped over Gong Li entirely. Gong Li looked angry at the time, and Tao Jingying's actions left even the renowned director Ang Lee at a loss. Her bizarre move directly angered netizens.

The root of the Golden Horse Awards' troubles lies with this idiot; she's the one who started it all.

Then there's Cai Xilin. I believe most people in mainland China know her. In previous years, she made a fortune in mainland China, had a high exposure rate, and gained a huge number of fans.

Many people like her, but she is a typical pro-Taiwan independence activist. She never dares to show it in mainland China, but after returning to Taiwan, she openly supported Taiwan's purchase of American arms, and when visiting Taiwanese troops, she said, "I think our country has hope." Furthermore, she repeatedly referred to cities like Hong Kong and Chengdu as foreign countries. Clearly, she is a pro-Taiwan independence activist.

Another example is Hebe Tien. When Pelosi visited Taiwan, she posted a photo of herself eating pasta with the caption, "No need to pretend, I already have a swollen face after my nap." The sarcasm was obvious, especially since Pelosi's ancestral home is Italian. Hebe Tien has also publicly stated her stance on other occasions.

And yet, there are still many people in mainland China who support her. I really don't understand what these fans are thinking! Are you even Chinese? Are you out of your minds to be idol fans?

In addition, there are Zhang Ximei, Yan Xilun, Barbie Hsu, Dee Hsu, Tsai Hsien-yung, and others. These people have all made a fortune in mainland China, but their support for W independence is very clear.

Even veteran entertainer Li Xiqun is wavering. These people come to the mainland to participate in programs just to make money, then go back to Taiwan and criticize the mainland—they're full of malicious intentions. These traitors who bite the hand that feeds them should be resolutely resisted.
