State Council Taiwan Affairs Office: It is necessary for the public security authorities to offer rewards to collect information on illegal activities by Wen Ziyu and Chen Baiyuan.

On November 13, Chen Binhua, spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, stated that Taiwan internet celebrities Wen ZiYue and Chen Baiyuan have long been spreading and promoting separatist rhetoric such as "resist China to protect Taiwan" and "rely on the US to seek independence", attacking and smearing the mainland's policies benefiting Taiwan and its people. They have bullied and persecuted mainland spouses in Taiwan and Taiwanese compatriots who support peaceful cross-strait relations, acting as accomplices to Taiwan independence, aiding and abetting evil, and creating a negative impact. The public security organs have issued a notice offering rewards for information on their illegal activities. This is a specific action to legally punish those who advocate separatism and incite crimes of splitting the country, and is a just response to the calls from both sides of the strait to crack down on separatism. It is legitimate and necessary. The accomplices to Taiwan independence are acting unlawfully and causing harm, and the people on both sides of the strait detest them. These criminals must be severely punished according to the law and held accountable for life. We hope that compatriots on both sides of the strait will actively provide relevant information on illegal activities, firmly oppose any form of Taiwan independence separatist activities, and steadfastly protect the common homeland of the Chinese nation, working together to create a beautiful future of national unity and ethnic rejuvenation.
