On April 22nd, the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council held a routine press conference, spokesperson Zhang Han answered questions from reporters on recent cross-strait hot issues. A reporter asked about recent comments made by Kuomintang Chairman Zheng Liwen during her visit to the mainland, where she mentioned that young people in the delegation had questioned why cross-strait relations were made so complicated, suggesting that inviting mainland actor Zhang Linghe to Taiwan would solve everything, sparking discussions. What is the spokesperson's comment on this? Is it possible for Zhang Linghe to visit Taiwan for exchanges? Zhang Han stated that recently mainland TV dramas like "Zhu Yu" have been popular in both sides of the strait, causing the actors to receive attention and love from audiences in Taiwan. The comments made by young members of the Chinese Kuomintang delegation express the sincere hope of Taiwanese youth for cross-strait film and television exchanges and peaceful development of cross-strait relations, vividly illustrating the unique role of cultural exchanges in bringing closer the hearts of compatriots on both sides of the strait. We have always supported the "two-way visits" of film and television industries across the strait, and are happy to see mainland artists visit Taiwan to meet with local people. She mentioned that compatriots on both sides of the strait share the same roots, culture, and emotions, and cultural resonance is the most natural bond that connects the hearts. We will continue to create favorable conditions for cross-strait cultural exchanges and cooperation, supporting more cultural and artistic workers and young people to visit each other frequently, using culture as a bridge to enhance mutual understanding and promote spiritual harmony.
