mainland rapper wang yitai, also known as wang shanhuo, became famous on the show "china's new rap". he was originally scheduled to hold a concert in taipei on september 14, but because of the promotional photos of "next stop: china taipei", the taiwan mainland affairs council and other relevant agencies determined that he violated the so-called "regulations on the permit for mainland residents to enter taiwan". the fan page "zhengzheng shuang" questioned that american singer taylor swift also wrote taiwan as a province of china, and hong kong singer andy lau will also hold a concert in taipei in october. does it matter if it's a big star? he sarcastically said that the taiwan authorities want to engage in ideology, but the standards are not consistent!

"zhengzheng shuang" posted on the social platform on the 28th that wang yitai was blocked from entering taiwan to hold a concert. it was a double-standard political incident from beginning to end! he mentioned that not long ago, the famous german singer chris james said on xiaohongshu that there were still seats for the "8.22 china taipei concert". the concert was still held on time in taipei. is this not "insulting taiwan"? taylor swift was also discovered by netizens last year. the official website set taiwan as "a province of china", but the dpp kaohsiung mayor chen chi-mai was still trying to get her to hold a concert. "may i ask what the dpp authorities' standards are?"

in addition, andy lau is expected to hold a concert tour at taipei arena from october to november. "politician shuang" said that the "taiwan people's party" close to the dpp once accused andy lau of being a so-called "mainland civil satellite organization", so why did the dpp allow andy lau to hold a concert in taiwan? did they check andy lau's identity according to the high standards of the green camp? the same thing, different standards, and said to be handled according to the "law", what is the so-called "standard for insulting taiwan"? or is it okay for big stars to say "taiwan, china", "taipei, china", "taiwan province, china", but small stars can use it for political manipulation.

it is understood that dpp legislator wang dingyu had previously called for a boycott of andy lau on the internet, but was mocked by netizens on the island. taipei city councillor hou hanting also sarcastically said: "the frog said he wanted to boycott the sea, it's so funny, he thought he could get the votes."

finally, "zhengzheng shuang" said frankly that the taiwan authorities claim that they are acting in accordance with the "law", so what are the standards for the source of the "law"?
