[Reporter Wu Liangyi/Taipei Report] There are 3 days left in the election of the Mayor of Jiuheyi County. Chen Shih-chung, the mayor of the Democratic Progressive Party of Taipei, held a press conference on the "Five Major Promises" this morning. When Lin Ye Market was sweeping the streets to ask for tickets, some excited fans took a group photo and gave away the real "clock". Are you worried that it has a bad homophonic meaning?

Chen Shizhong said with a smile that in Taiwanese, "good luck gets a clock".

Chen Shizhong went to the Shilin Night Market yesterday to collect tickets. At the beginning, he took photos with the public and interacted with them, which attracted a large number of people to line up. A fan specially presented a real "clock", which made Chen Shizhong laugh for a while, and then asked his staff to accept it.

When Chen Shizhong responded to the media today, he said with a smile that he often introduces himself to his supporters, "I am Ah Zhong, you can call me Clock (Taiwanese)".

Chen Shih-chung has also publicly stated many times that Taipei is a city that never stops, just like a clock that does not stop, and he will be the eternal "clock" for citizens.

In addition, regarding the occasional public protests or "downvotes" when sweeping the streets to ask for votes, Chen Shizhong said that this is the expression of everyone's opinions. For example, when he met competitors, candidates from different parties would "say Hello" to them (greet).
