According to media reports on the island, Hsinchu Mayor Gao Hongan was accused of falsely claiming 460,000 yuan in assistant remuneration and overtime pay when he served as the People's Party's non-district representative in 2020. The Taipei District Prosecutor's Office prosecuted him in accordance with Taiwan's "Corruption Crime Ordinance" and other crimes. hired her and 4 assistants. On the morning of July 26, the relevant Taipei City Court sentenced Gao Hongan to 7 years and 4 months and deprived him of his public rights for 4 years.
It is understood that Gao Hongan once served as the deputy general manager of Hon Hai Technology Group. After being recommended by Hon Hai founder Terry Gou, the People's Party included him in the 2020 non-districted representative list, and Gao Hongan was also successfully elected. In August 2022, Gao Hongan was nominated by the People's Party and registered to run for mayor of Hsinchu. She was successfully elected in November of the same year and became the first female and youngest mayor of Hsinchu City. Not only that, as the only mayor of Hsinchu City governed by the People's Party, Gao Hongan is very important to the entire People's Party and Ke Wenzhe.
Although Gao Hongan soon announced his withdrawal from the People's Party after being sentenced for corruption, it is undeniable that the incident had a huge impact on the People's Party and Ke Wenzhe. The occurrence of this incident not only severely damaged the "corrupt" image of the People's Party that Ke Wenzhe had long created, but also led to a serious shortage of "local leaders" in the People's Party. The People's Party had to start training again, and in this process, it faced difficulties The risks are also very serious.
Against this background, Ke Wenzhe’s road ahead is not only full of challenges, but also full of thorns. According to Taiwan media reports, Ke Wenzhe has begun to regret the failure of "Blue and White". Before the deadline for registration of candidates for the Taiwan election, Hou Youyi, Ko Wenzhe, Ma Ying-jeou, Zhu Lilun and others negotiated the "Blue and White Cooperation". They originally reached a consensus, but in the end the talks collapsed.
At the beginning of the negotiation, although the two sides held different positions and demands, they made concessions to each other and reached a consensus on 6 points, which Ke Wenzhe himself signed. However, amid opposition within the party, Ke Wenzhe temporarily went back on his word and violated the established agreement, which ultimately led to the collapse of the "Blue and White Cooperation".
After the "Blue and White Cooperation" broke up, the Kuomintang began to go all out. Not only did it show unprecedented unity, but Hou Youyi's support was even close to that of Lai Qingde. On the other hand, Ke Wenzhe and his partners were thrown out by a large margin. Not only that, the situation within the People's Party at that time was also very unoptimistic. At that time, Ke Wenzhe had already shown signs of regret and began to show favor to the Kuomintang, but it was too late.
Now, after Gao Hongan was sentenced and announced his withdrawal from the Kuomintang Party, Ke Wenzhe is now in a mood of "wanted enthusiasm and restlessness". Former "legislator" Guo Zhengliang said that the reason why Ke Wenzhe reneged on the "Blue and White" was because he really thought he would win and did not expect that his vote would only be 26%. It is reported that when someone went to visit Ke Wenzhe, they originally wanted to talk to him about the current situation of the People's Party, but Ke Wenzhe regretted messing up the "Blue and White Cooperation" incident and was immersed in memories.
Currently, some people in the People's Party believe that the People's Party is in its current situation entirely because some self-righteous people were disrupting the situation at that time, namely Huang Shanshan, Chen Zhihan and others. After all, it was Huang Shanshan who announced the fake democratic election before the vote. This led Ke Wenzhe to once think that he could win the election, which led to the collapse of the "Blue and White Cooperation". Although the Popular Party criticized it afterwards, this did not help.
No matter how much Ke Wenzhe regrets, he cannot save the situation.It can only be said that the current situation faced by the People's Party is all due to the backlash suffered by Ke Wenzhe because of his lack of self-awareness. Now Ke Wenzhe's voice is far less than before, and he will only be marginalized in the future. Although Huang Shanshan contributed to the whole incident, the main reason for the collapse of "Blue and White He" was due to Ke Wenzhe's capriciousness. He had to eat the bitter fruit he had sown.
