An Fengshan, spokesman for the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council, said today that films with the participation of Taiwan artists who hold a "Taiwan independence" stand and have "Taiwan independence" words and deeds will not be allowed to be released on the mainland. The release of the Taiwanese film "Johnny Keck" on the mainland has been shelved.
At a regular press conference held by the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council on 28 July, a reporter asked: The Taiwanese film "Johnny Keck" is about to be released on the mainland, and some netizens recently pointed out that Ke Yulun, one of the main actors in this film, once had "Taiwan independence" words and deeds, and supported his father, film director Ke Yizheng's "Taiwan independence" stand, and supported Taiwan's "power of the times." I would like to ask the spokesperson, do you know the relevant situation and what kind of measures will be taken next?

An Fengshan said: It is understood that the relevant competent departments have grasped the situation mentioned by the reporter, and said that they will not allow films with the participation of Taiwan artists who hold a "Taiwan independence" stance and have "Taiwan independence" words and deeds to be released on the mainland. If these Taiwanese artists recognize the mistakes and harms of "Taiwan independence" and change their thinking and actions, we will welcome them. At present, the release of the film in the mainland has been shelved.
