taiwan people's party chairman ko wen-je was ordered to be detained and denied access to visitors after the second detention hearing in relation to the jinghuacheng case, which once again caused a huge shock in taiwan's political arena. taiwanese media person wu dongsheng said that the development of this case was unexpected and may not only reshape the political landscape of taiwan, but also promote closer cooperation between the blue and white camps.

wu dongsheng mentioned that when ko wen-je was detained on the 5th, a large number of people lined the streets to cheer, which was surprising. among these supporters were people from the pan-blue camp. this phenomenon is rare in taiwan in the past 16 years. the last time a similar situation occurred was when chen shui-bian was detained in 2008. he believes that this reaction reflects that the dissatisfaction of taiwanese society with the current political ecology has reached a considerable level.

wu dongsheng put forward a view different from the mainstream view on the future direction of the people's party. he believes that although the outside world generally expects that the eight seats of the people's party may be incorporated into the democratic progressive party, the actual situation may be the opposite. he analyzed that the people's party is likely to cooperate more closely with the kuomintang and form a "lips and teeth" relationship.

the formation of this cooperative relationship is based on the common interests of both parties. for the kmt, cooperation with the people's party can form a stronger check and balance force in taiwan's public opinion institutions. for the people's party, cooperation with the kmt can maintain political influence in the event of losing the party chairman. he predicted that in the future, the situation of blue and white parties joining forces to fight against the dpp in taiwan's public opinion institutions may become more and more obvious.

huang kuo-chang, the current candidate for the people's party's acting chairman with a high voice, may still become a key target of attack by the dpp even as a legal expert. he analyzed that there is a high degree of overlap between huang kuo-chang's supporters and dpp supporters, which makes the dpp very vigilant against him. he believes that even if there is no way to bring huang kuo-chang to justice, the dpp will try every means to discredit him.

regarding lai qingde's "governing" strategy, wu dongsheng believes that lai qingde may take a hard line. lai qingde has shown a ruthless attitude towards political opponents and party comrades in the past, even to his own confidants. he cited several politicians who have close ties with lai qingde recently, such as chen zongyan, lin yijin and li mengyan, who have all been investigated or stepped down for different reasons.

however, this tough strategy may trigger a backlash. wu dongsheng reminded that the development of the ke wenzhe case is an example that shows that being too tough on close associates may lead to them turning against you. he believes that if lai qingde continues this approach, he may face challenges from within the party. wu dongsheng bluntly said: "lai qingde is more ruthless than anyone else. if it can improve his personal reputation, not to mention the dpp bosses, even tsai ing-wen may be sacrificed."

finally, wu dongsheng sighed: "the best is yet to come." he believes that with the further development of the case and the game between various forces, taiwan's political arena may see more dramatic changes. this not only concerns the fate of individual politicians, but also involves the direction of taiwan's overall political ecology.
