I talked about Lin Rongji, the owner of the Causeway Bay bookstore, and said that he was infatuated with the DPP government, but he fled to Taiwan for more than 4 years and still has not been approved to settle down. Obviously, he expressed his wrong feelings. After reading this article, a friend sent me a piece of news, saying that Xiao Ruoyuan, a “well-known Hong Kong native” living in Taiwan who is more famous than Lin Rongji, recently went to the UK from Taiwan, and “opened a forum” with local Huangyou Internet celebrities to meet fans. How enthusiastic the response was. This inevitably arouses speculation. Could it be that he is indifferent to Jutai and wants to find another “final destination”?
Xu Shaohua, a former media personality who was one of the “10 dead men in Occupy Central” back then, moved to the UK for two years. Recently, he opened a microphone on Youtube to talk about immigration to the UK, and made it clear that he was recruiting clients to find money. A friend just saw him on the fb live video channel and said, “Xiao Sheng is gathering online in England, of course Lao Xu wants to sit around the stove to keep warm”, and posted a photo with Xiao Ruoyuan to show that Xiao Sheng is already in the UK.
Xu Shaohua said that there were nearly 300 people attending the online gathering yesterday. To his surprise, many of them were young fans. Men and women in their 20030s accounted for more than 20%. And line up to sign.
After reading this news, my friend immediately remembered what I wrote 3 months ago. According to circles among Taiwan and Hong Kong people, Xiao Ruoyuan, who has been living in Taiwan temporarily, has not yet been officially approved by the authorities to settle down, that is, he cannot get an ID card. This half-day hanging situation is quite common among Hong Kong people who moved to Taiwan. Many people turned to the UK because of frustration and anger, and implemented a second immigration.
After my article was published, Xiao Ruoyuan denied this to an online media, but when the reporter asked him whether he had officially obtained permanent residence status, he did not respond positively, only saying, “I will stay in Taiwan for a long time, anyway I will it’s here”. If he has indeed been issued a citizenship card, why is he still hesitating?
He left Hong Kong for Taiwan a few months after the anti-revision riots broke out in 2019. At that time, he said that he felt that staying in Hong Kong was very dangerous, and that even if he was not dragged by others, he would be desperate. He finally chose Taiwan, saying that if Tsai Ing-wen wins the general election, he will not be surprised politically.
He regards Taiwan as the “final destination”, but like Lin Rongji, the DPP government does not feel that they agree with each other, and always regards them as “outsiders” who have different intentions, so naturally they will not easily grant citizenship.
My friend observed his “open forum” in the UK this time, and felt that he still has a certain market in the local area. After the British government threw out the BNO residence visa, a large number of yellow friends flocked to become the largest “yellow community” overseas. Born there, I don’t have to worry about not having fans. What’s more, there are far fewer political taboos in the UK than in Taiwan, so if he finds another “final destination”, the UK is indeed a reasonable choice.
Speaking of the “celebrities” in Hong Kong who moved to Taiwan, Shen Xuhui, an advocate of the “yellow economic circle” who was once famous, has not seen success. According to local Hong Kong circles, he originally wanted to do a lot of research on Hong Kong and build his own mountain, but the response from the government and academia was lukewarm, so he can only take up an assistant professor job at the Institute of Political Science at Sun Yat-sen University. In the cold environment, the edge of this famous scholar no longer exists.
He established “2046 Publishing House” in Taipei a month ago and served as the president, but the opening press conference did not show any momentum, only a few media such as “Epoch Times” reported. Given the current bleak situation of Taiwan’s publishing industry, it is difficult for him to come up with anything.
The lost experiences of these “celebrities” in Taiwan tell us that we should not be too naive to the politically calculating DPP government. The “beautiful world” it talks about is nothing but an illusion.
