Huang Kuo-chang claims 'terrifying stock value' boss offered him a job; netizens mock him

Taiwan People First Party Chairman Huang Kuo-chang recently held a book launch for his new work, "Moving Towards the Light." The book has drawn criticism for alleged inaccuracies and historical distortions, but Huang has not apologized.

During the book launch on June 5, Huang shared an anecdote about a dinner the previous evening with senior figures. He recounted that one elder, instrumental in the book's creation, urged him to write it and share his experiences with young people. This elder, Huang said, also suggested he stop engaging in politics, which he deemed unsalvageable, and join his company.

Huang stated the executive told him, "I can only tell you, the market value of his company's stock is terrifying right now, the stock price has doubled. Yesterday he also told me, 'Teacher, don't be so tired, I feel heartbroken watching you, and it's not worth it, let's do something else.' He really scared me when he said that."

Huang's remarks quickly circulated online, sparking a strong reaction. Netizens expressed skepticism and criticism, with comments ranging from "This guy is hyping himself up again" to "How disgusting can one get?" and "I'm really curious which company with a terrifying market value wants to hire Huang Kuo-chang." Some sarcastically suggested that if it were true, the political scene would be cleaner, with one user saying, "Quickly let him go, if it's true, we should thank that big boss for making the political scene cleaner."
