Popular YouTuber with a million subscribers, Guanchang (Chen Zihan), officially concluded his six-day trip to China today (15th) and expressed admiration for various aspects of China upon arrival at Shanghai Pudong Airport. This has sparked discussions among netizens, with some mocking him by comparing him to 'Liu Laolao entering the Grand View Garden.' After returning to Taiwan, Guanchang faces a barrage of negative comments, causing him considerable fatigue.

Upon arriving at Pudong Airport, Guanchang revealed he hadn’t slept for four days and expressed the immense pressure he was under. He mentioned that his visit significantly altered his perception of China and hinted that he plans to visit Shenzhen next. After watching a video by Shen Boyang, he retorted against the criticism: 'A lot of nonsense, brainwashing the Taiwanese people to create division; come see for yourself.'

Despite having a mixed experience during his China trip, he acknowledged the criticisms and felt physically and emotionally exhausted. He expressed sadness at being accused of 'selling out Taiwan's dignity,' stating that Taiwan will always be his home. He was born and raised there and will die there, emphasizing that he cannot understand why his compatriots cannot empathize with him. He also noted that his trip aimed to shift focus away from the major recall elections and believes he has succeeded in doing so.

On the 15th, Shen Boyang recorded a video responding to Guanchang's trip, urging people to differentiate between 'China, the Chinese people, and the CCP.' He noted that he has been labeled as a stubborn pro-independence figure and warned that expressing dissent in China could lead to severe consequences under its legal framework.

As Guanchang completes this highly publicized trip to China, his next steps and attitudes toward future activities in China will be closely monitored.
