Speaker A
Welcome to this week's CU News. Sixth place. Following last month’s Spider-Man reunion, a sequel was released. To see the post-credits surprise, you must first pass the test of the Mandarin theme song. One person can only trade for your heart, forever.
Speaker A
If you think this song is bad, I guess you haven’t heard the version from ten years ago.
Speaker A
There is an American Spider-Man. Wait, that’s the wrong one, it’s this. After hearing this, all I can say is we owe the original singers an apology. Regardless of whether you like these theme songs, what the Spider-Man movies want to convey is that not every
Speaker A
hero wears a cape, like the kind-hearted Spider-Man in the US recently. Surveillance footage captured a person in a wheelchair struggling to cross the street. With the light about to turn red, a driver jumped out of his car and
Speaker A
pushed him all the way to the other side, but looking closely, the driver was Spider-Man. It’s not just the central and southern regions that raise righteous people. In the US, the birthplace of superheroes, it’s perfectly reasonable for a random
Speaker A
driver to be Spider-Man. As long as you have a heart for the world, every place is a martial arts arena. Yuanta Securities is looking for you too. You don’t need to be an expert investor; as long as your ID number, name, or
Speaker A
birthday meets the criteria, you are the "chosen one" we are looking for. Register for the event now to get a limited-edition 5,056 NTD electronic voucher. What? You say you’re not the "chosen one"? Trade Taiwan stocks, ETNs, or ETFs—it doesn't matter. Open up
Speaker A
your potential and you can participate too; one share or two is not too little, even zero can win a prize. If you are a martial arts novice in the stock market, just enter "V66" to draw a starter gift pack; Yuanta Securities is
Speaker A
giving it away. From today until September 30th, there is one month left. The stock market is unpredictable; if you don't want to fall behind, click the event link in the description now and let Yuanta Securities help you
Speaker A
start ahead. Fellow martial arts experts, let's meet at the pinnacle of the stock market. Fifth place: TikTok trends. One shot, two shots, Chen Chih-han shot three times, congratulations.
Speaker A
Second, Sushiiro is also holding a carnival this week. Remember when a Japanese prankster licked the soy sauce bottle and caused a ten-billion-yen market value loss? This time, Taiwan Sushiiro is challenging the stock price with its global "fresh local
Speaker A
ingredients on the conveyor belt" stunt. Give me a break. Yeah. Happily posing for the camera—is this so absurd that I’m doubting if it’s AI? The employee sprawled across the conveyor belt like a poster, getting stuck for a moment. Although the belt
Speaker A
the employee climbed on wasn't the one for delivering food, but for collecting dirty dishes to the wash station, it still leaves a very bad impression.
Speaker A
The monkeys are here. So this time, it's not just a collaboration with the museum, but also with uncivilized behavior. The most commendable thing about young people today is that they leave evidence when doing bad things, even on campus. From
Speaker A
customers touching soy sauce bottles to employees playing on conveyor belts, I sometimes wonder if this place has undercover agents from competitors. How can weird stuff happen every other day?
Speaker A
Before you "rectify the workplace" and treat the conveyor belt like a slide, have you ever watched the movie Final Destination? If you get stuck or your clothes get caught for even a second, you'll instantly become fresh ingredients. Turning from "human sushi"
Speaker A
into "horse sushi"—playing once wasn't enough, they even sent it into the furnace for a second round. I've seen people practice serving dishes, but never people practicing cremation; using a human body to clear leftovers off a conveyor belt—that's a 1948794
Speaker A
level of insanity. The god-building is underway; super-popular Taipei mayoral candidate Shen Bo-yang was out campaigning when he met a fan who brought an award certificate signed by Hsinchu Mayor Kao Hung-an to ask for a signature. He crossed out her name,
Speaker A
which drew criticism for being disrespectful to the original mayor. Of course, there is no disrespect toward Mayor Kao. Many members of the public have various creative ideas, and we, naturally, try our best to satisfy everyone's needs. So touching! I only
Speaker A
support Shen. Crossing out Kao Hung-an's name—if you didn't know better, you'd think it was a Hsinchu mayoral by-election. If we change President Lai to Shen Bo-yang, is that also "creativity"? Disrespecting it as "creativity"—no wonder smashing glass can get you a cultural grant.
Speaker A
There's this guy named Shen Bo-yang running for Taipei mayor this time. Let me tell you, he is truly outstanding.
Speaker A
He’s from NTU, a lawyer, studied law at NTU, taught at a cram school, was a university professor, and later became a legislator. He is very suitable to be our mayor, but he really likes playing with Beyblades. Support Shen, replace
Speaker A
Lai with Bo-yang! Such a talented future president should be in charge of changing signatures to benefit Taiwan.
Speaker A
Let the Hsinchu mayor be Shen, let the wood village disaster be Shen, let everything be Shen, let everyone be Shen, let everyone be a vessel for Shen Bo-yang.
Speaker A
Everyone is Shen Po-yang. During this election period, let everyone become a body double for Shen Po. Wear Shen Po-yang, carry Shen Po-yang; everyone is Shen Po. One is God Shen, the only path returns to God Shen; God Shen
Speaker A
births all things, the ultimate universe, God Shen, God Shen, God Shen, God follows nature. Too divine, worthy of being the political Jesus.
Speaker A
A young student asked me anxiously, "What should I do? My elders are hardcore, they might not vote for you, what do I do?" I told him, "Just bring your elders out to shake hands with Shen Po-yang once; Shen Po-yang's gaze
Speaker A
will handle it for you." Thank God, thank the Lord. As expected of the man hailed as the closest to a god, Taiwan's All Might, Taipei's strongest hero, the hope of the entire village.
Speaker A
Shen Po-yang is playing the role of All Might. He is One For All. Oh, the most miserable time. Worthy of being Chiayi’s 4 ChaCat—I mean, Chiayi’s mysterious soldier. Now, as long as you are breathing, you are counted as similar to Taipei’s All
Speaker A
Might. How could he lose? Third place, an apology to Kao and Lin Chih-chien. Four years since the pandemic started, the large garbage dump project that ballooned from 350 million to 1.15 billion NTD—former mayor Lin Chih-chien finally received a
Speaker A
non-prosecution decision. Heaven has eyes, justice has been served for Xiao-Zhi. As expected, having the Party makes one invincible—I mean, as expected, Xiao-Zhi is innocent. Hailed for personally supervising the baseball stadium, he bought a pile of waste, yet walked away unscathed. It’s all fine,
Speaker A
simply incredible. Hung-chieh, we did it. Justice and kindness have returned. Believe in the Party, right and wrong can truly be reversed. He posted on social media that the law proved his innocence—it wasn't accidentally dumping six tons of steel, it was a
Speaker A
"good-faith backfill," not illegal waste buried; as long as the ratio isn't high, it's within the acceptable range.
Speaker A
Ruining the career of a professional baseball player is a merit, not a fault. Brother Che-hsuan, it’s still not too late to apologize to Xiao-Zhi. This isn't Lin Chih-chien's problem. When Mayor Lin Chih-chien held the games, it hadn't passed inspection yet, but he
Speaker A
had some procedural flaws. Can you play without inspection? Yes, you can. Did you hear that? The mayoral candidate said it: apparently, the Hsinchu Baseball Stadium can host games without inspection. Did I force you to play ball? Did I force you to get
Speaker A
injured? Did I force you to fall? Did I force you to trip? Did I force you to buy a seat where you stare at a wall?
Speaker A
Did I force you to use a bathroom do
Speaker A
law, but when the DPP's excavators dug in, the soil was riddled with large red bricks and discarded tire scraps.
Speaker A
Everything is legal, pointing out that Xiao Zhi might have issues—second place. Why charter a flight? With heavy rain hitting the south for days this week causing flooding, Premier Cho Jung-tai stated that due to budget cuts by the Blue and White camp, he couldn't
Speaker A
visit the disaster sites and could only communicate by phone. With the Legislative Yuan cutting the budget, these past few days I can only contact local areas by phone.
Speaker A
Hello. Yes, wow. The rain is very heavy now, and traffic conditions might not allow for a full arrival. You all need to set your...
Speaker A
In the future, I will still overcome various difficulties to go to the local areas to check on the current situation .
Speaker A
There are some inconveniences, but once things settle down, we will quickly come to assist the local areas.
Speaker A
Why has it become so difficult for us to see you? No, I didn't know you wanted to see me.
Speaker A
The meaning is throwing up his hands: " I have no money, the democratic grassroots can just handle the flooding themselves, no need for me to visit." After all, the commoners are meant to be harvested, not looked after. Just a
Speaker A
couple of days ago, there was money and time to help the party campaign, but when it came to visiting disaster zones , the Democratic Party's heart lost its function—useless at everything, but first place at putting on a show. Ask
Speaker A
and it's always a natural disaster in the north, or the fault of the Blue and White parties in the Yuan. With the budget cut in the Yuan, the party can only rely on "pigeon post" transmissions. The total budget was cut
Speaker A
by only 0.6%, yet the entire government has come to a standstill, acting as if 99%was slashed. Don't say that deducting a little over 1%...a little over 1%of 48 billion doesn't account for much. It really doesn't. I believe Premier Cho is saying that the
Speaker A
Legislative Yuan's budget cuts weren't precise enough; I believe he's speaking from experience. So, if you cut less than 2%, you can't get anything done? Flooding in the north is due to poor management; flooding in the south is blamed on
Speaker A
insufficient funds. Now, the victim today is Premier Cho. Blue party caucus, you are both blaming the victim and holding his neck, forcing him to go to the scene. So there are no disaster victims, only the injured Premier Cho Jung-tai, and
Speaker A
asking him to care for the flooded households is like holding his neck— it's so hard; our Premier is truly suffering.
Speaker A
This humble minister's life is hard; I am the most miserable person under heaven. How am I forced...
Speaker A
As expected, only "Dong Zhuo" can out-Dong Zhuo himself. During elections , he faces wind and rain without obstacle; during disasters, he acts like your mother—so impressive.
Speaker A
Relying on the "no budget" trick to conquer the world; the poor disaster victims are not as important as Cho Jung-tai chartering a flight to Japan to watch baseball.
Speaker A
This charter flight cost 2.08 million, and I paid it to China Airlines. They have money to watch baseball in Japan but only use the phone to check on floods. They'll drop two million without blinking but can't spare a few
Speaker A
thousand for travel. They're used to chartering private jets; without extra funds, they won't even visit their own strongholds.
Speaker A
The KMT and TPP can't expect a horse to run well without feeding it. Now, they have to go out and inspect the disaster on an empty stomach.
Speaker A
With over 3 trillion in the budget, it's still not enough? Premier Cho must be starving. Who would have thought that even with that much, the coffers are still empty? Does the budget also cover the Premier's meal expenses?
Speaker A
Traveling hungry, then eating full— Schrödinger’s budget is truly pitiful. That’s Premier Cho for you.
Speaker A
After getting criticized, he suddenly found money in his pocket. Just yesterday, he cried about having no budget for travel, but the next day he was able to get from Taipei to Pingtung . Premier, what brings you down here
Speaker A
personally today? I mean, didn't you say before that a phone call was enough ?
Speaker A
We all know the central government's second reserve fund wasn't cut and can still be used. If that’s the case, we’re happy to accept that advice, so all the issues can be overcome.
Speaker A
Bravo to my party. One second you can't go, the next second you can. This flexible, expanding budget is magical.
Speaker A
I’m so envious of the residents in the south, being able to see clean floodwater and clean...wait, I can even see them every day!
Speaker A
Say that again, and I'll show you what a "submerged chicken rice" special is. Two months ago, Neihu flooded, and the internet was buzzing with snide remarks . The Tainan Mayor even offered to share his flood-control expertise. Yet, less than two months later, a heavy
Speaker A
downpour turned the entire Southern Taiwan into Venice. A heavy rain hit, and Yongkang, Tainan, flooded again.
Speaker A
The clothing store owner only realized it when they came to open up. How deep was it?
Speaker A
Probably about 20 centimeters. What about the stuff inside? Everything had to be moved. The store is flooded but business must go on.
Speaker A
Take this mobile phone shop: it flooded twice in one day. Feet soaked in water while the shop remains open—it's become a unique sight in Yongkang. The owner of the hardware store next door is in the same boat. The water came in
Speaker A
once, receded, then came in again, and receded again. Why, despite spending so much on flood control, is the improvement not very obvious? We people in Rende seem like second-class citizens.
Speaker A
Another local resident in Rende is so fed up with the flooding they want to move. This is water! I really want to move; I can't take this anymore. This problem is never going to be solved!
Speaker A
Even if you gave me a house here, I wouldn't want it. I'd rather just work hard to earn money; why should I listen to this nonsense? And this is the third time it's flooded this year, and none of these times were because of typhoons
Speaker A
! If a typhoon comes next week, we might just…well… In response to residents complaining about flooding whenever it rains, Tainan Mayor Huang Wei-che had this to say. Even the Flora Expo had flooding issues, let alone Tainan, which is 8.5
Speaker A
times the size of Taipei but receives less than a third of Taipei's water management budget. We can't really expect the public to just accept it, but with limited resources, the government is doing its best. When Neihu flooded, the Tainan mayor shared
Speaker A
his flood control "experience"; when Tainan floods, the mayor cries about insufficient budget and demands the central government chip in. So "flood control experience" just means asking the central government for money?
Speaker A
Could’ve said that sooner; even a random person at the train station knows how to do that. I was looking forward to seeing June’s "Wei" share his wisdom with August’s "Wei," but once the flood hit, all that bravado from two months ago vanished. Maybe we
Speaker A
should just hire a fire-user like Zhang Xiaoquan to manage the water, making Tainan’s water flow smoothly— wouldn't that be what everyone wants?
Speaker A
Remember when the President was so full of confidence, issuing a challenge? Neihu's flooding was quite rare; those areas haven't flooded in 40 or 50 years , so I hope the government reviews every place that has experienced flooding.
Speaker A
Yet, before the other side even said a word, he was already rushing to stop the attacks against him.
Speaker A
If we look at the engineering budget for flood control in recent years, the central and southern regions actually received more, while the north received less. Then he turns around to criticize the flood control in the central and southern regions. I think this is
Speaker A
unfair. For a place that hasn't flooded in 50 years, sure, review it deeply. But for places that flood three times a day regardless of typhoons? We shouldn't use a blanket standard. Does Tom Cruise need to use the same
Speaker A
standards as a dentist? Ask about it and they'll say 99%of flooded areas are improved, or that he finished 30 years of flood control during his term, so don't be so dissatisfied.
Speaker A
A long-term patient eventually becomes a good doctor. When asked about flood control in the past, you were the one who took the lead.
Speaker A
But currently, it seems like we’re just relying on water pumps; isn't that just a temporary fix rather than a permanent solution?
Speaker A
Please, do tell me what you think should be done. Seeing the disaster now, the grassroots are emotional; thank you, President, for coming to see our situation. I believe the President is coming because he is our former mayor, a candidate we
Speaker A
deeply trusted when I was a neighborhood chief, so we ask the mayor —our old mayor—to visit our disaster area, is that okay?
Speaker A
Oh my, the Emperor is on a tour! How dare these unruly citizens try to petition him? Sorry, insiders know the current President won't just let you accost him; if it's not in the script, please don't ad-lib, okay? As the head
Speaker A
of state, how could he possibly just stand there and let you scold him? Isn't the situation perfectly clear now ? That’s great, you can go home now.
Speaker A
Getting used to flood control is just a habit. Small floods mean washing your feet, big floods mean taking a bath, and for a full wash, you have to look at our digital product passport. This story tells us: when other counties
Speaker A
have issues, don't rush to laugh too loud. When Neihu flooded, you—the president—were saying local governments need to take action. But when Kaohsiung flooded, you said we can't talk about this, that we can't blame flood control in the central and
Speaker A
south. Yet for Neihu, you insisted on flood control plans and local government accountability. The double standard is simple. You stir up drama, and even when nobody is blaming you for Kaohsiung yet, you start setting up your shield and preparing your defenses
Speaker A
. You've wasted too much time on empty talk. No wonder you want to hand out ten thousand bucks before the election —because you have no achievements.
Speaker A
You spend all day bickering and sowing division. Didn't you just scold Neihu? Is this not immediate karma? A small island, binary opposition, three major parties, split into pieces; officials can't tell grain from weeds, and the people are left in utter bewilderment.
Speaker A
Political enemies play mind games, the Crazy News has eight videos, eight yellow flags, and once in a blue moon a sponsored post—it’s absolutely dismal. We only ask our "sugar daddies" to support our sponsored content, which is rarer than Japanese compressors, or
Speaker A
send a little "Super Thanks."
