According to Taiwan's "Zhongshi Electronic News" reported that the "city within the city" fire in Kaohsiung, resulting in the unfortunate death of 46 people, 41 people were lightly injured, the whole of Taiwan was sad, and all walks of life also carried out reform and discussion on related issues such as urban construction renewal, fire security inspection, building management and rental housing safety. Kaohsiung Mayor Chen Qimai immediately apologized at the first time and stressed that he had an unshirkable responsibility and that he would bear all the blame. After the "City within a City" fire, Chen Qimai's online voice also soared, becoming the core of the discussion of the entire incident.

Chen Guan'an, director of the Youth Department of the Kuomintang, wrote on Facebook on the 20th that although Chen Qimai apologized at the first time, the problem of the municipal government not implementing public safety management has also attracted high discussion on the Internet. He analyzed that from the perspective of the big data of the Facebook community, chen Qimai's cumulative network voice in the three days of the incident was not far from the sum of the month before the incident, and the impact score was 117056 points and the latter was 148445 points. From the cross-comparison of the keywords "city within a city", "Chen Qimai", "Chen Qimai & City within a city", Chen Qimai covered about a quarter of the online discussion in the city-within-city fire incident, occupying the first place among Taiwanese politicians.

Chen Guan'an continued that Chen Qimai not only increased his personal network voice because of the "city-within-city incident", but also the core of the discussion of the events. But is the volume of the discussion of Chen Qimai positive or negative? Chen Guanan found that from the perspective of the "mood anger ratio" of the number of anger generated by each hundred moods, the ratio was only 0.55% in the 30 days before the event, but during the three days of the event, it increased by 6 times to about 3.5%; in addition, the anger ratio of the Facebook community to discuss the keyword "city within the city" was 2.65%, but if the article discussed both "city within the city" and "Chen Qimai", it would grow to 3.74%.

Chen Guanan also pointed out that in simple terms, Chen Qimai's negative voice not only grew significantly during the "City within The City Incident", but also in the "City within the City Incident", making it easier for community articles to have the keyword of the discussion of anger numbers. From this point of view, although the discussion of the event has gradually slowed down, from the perspective of big data, the community does have a considerable degree of responsibility for Chen Qimai.

Chen Guan'an lamented that after every major event, the society will set off a wave of reform, and in this unfortunate incident, it has also been exposed that public problems at the composite level of public security, consumer inspection, rental housing, social welfare, and more need to be solved urgently. However, from past experience, including "Puyuma", "Taroko", social safety nets, etc., the DPP authorities have often been hot through the reform and forgotten, so many tragedies have been continuously circulated. Data is only numbers, but public issues affect every Taiwanese. (Source: Huaxia Graticule)
