午夜特搜：支持中國客來台？他發「這張圖」遭控又是網軍－民視新聞

[FTV Instant News] Have you seen this AI-generated image on social media recently? It shows a shop owner holding a sign that says "I support mainland tourists visiting Taiwan," and the background looks like a traditional Taiwanese tofu pudding shop. However, the bottom left corner of the post indicates it's an AI-generated image and not a real photo. Moreover, this isn't the only post using this image. Besides the photo itself, the posters also wrote things like, "Milk prices in Taiwan are getting higher and higher," "Rentals are rising," and "We hope Chinese tourists will come to Taiwan to boost consumption." Furthermore, recently a netizen claiming to be a tourism operator in Yilan said that business has been significantly worse in the past two years due to the lack of Chinese tourists. However, these posts, clearly intended to influence public opinion, were immediately debunked by many netizens. For example, some pointed out that the claim of no Chinese tourists in the past two years is incorrect; in fact, since 2019, the Chinese government has suspended the issuance of travel permits to Taiwan without warning, so this isn't a recent phenomenon. In addition, the Mainland Affairs Council recently reiterated its position on Chinese tourists visiting Taiwan, emphasizing that Taiwan had formally notified China as early as February last year that pre-arranged tour groups must be formally communicated and reach a consensus through the tourism sub-committee before implementation. However, China has ignored the call from the Taiwanese government to this day, never providing a formal response, and instead trying to bypass the official channels and unilaterally contact Taiwanese non-governmental organizations. Furthermore, regarding Taiwan's tourism industry, many netizens believe that truly capable businesses can survive without relying on Chinese tourists. Recently, a Japanese tourist posted several photos of Taiwanese food on social media, jokingly saying that if he didn't gain 5 kilograms after arriving in Taiwan, he wouldn't be able to leave the country. Unexpectedly, the post attracted a comment from former President Tsai Ing-wen, who suggested that if he was worried about gaining weight, he could find time to go hiking, as Taiwan is full of beautiful mountains. Tsai's comment instantly boosted the post's discussion. In fact, former President Tsai Ing-wen not only frequently interacts with netizens from various countries on social media, but also recently personally attended the Global Women Leaders Summit in Italy, continuing to promote diplomacy for Taiwan. Back in Taiwan, he shared glimpses of his trip to Italy on social media. In one video, he even showed off a couple of boxing moves, revealing in his post that he recently hired a coach and started learning boxing to train his upper body muscles. He added that this wasn't just for health, but also to continue contributing to Taiwan. Speaking of Taiwanese people's active use of Threads, it seems to have reached a new level recently. One user posted their convenience store gift card barcode on Threads, saying they had NT$40 left and wanted to treat their friends to drinks, asking if anyone had used it. Unexpectedly, the comment section exploded with coupons from various convenience stores, saying they had more than they could use and asking for help. Later, many users in the comments section actually redeemed their coupons for free coffee, unexpectedly finding small joys. That's all for today's trending topics.
