After Taiwan's epidemic prevention was lifted, the people of Guishan Island in Yilan who had the word "turtle" in their names for sightseeing were allowed to board the island for free on August 1, with a limit of 20 people. As soon as the news came out, it was questioned by netizens, "If you don't want to discount it, just say it, who will take the 'turtle' in the name"? However, the island still set off a "turtle hunting fever", as of now, a total of 4 people have learned that there are "turtles" in the name of the whole Taiwan.
According to Taiwan's "United News Network", the 20th anniversary of the opening of Guishan Island for sightseeing, the Northeast Corner Management Office of Taiwan's Transportation Department announced that on August 1, as long as the name of the "turtle" in the name of the people can board the island for free. Up to now, a total of 4 people who have learned that the name "turtle" is there, in addition to an islander named "Wu Guixiong", it was also found that the female artist "Cai Yu" is really named "Cai Li Tortoise". Through the Internet, another person found the person in charge of the Yongcheng Rice Mill in Tainan, "Wu Gui", and a senior temple restorer in the north, Bo "Yellow Turtle Li", and the northeast corner management office hoped that they would come to participate in the event, but they have not yet contacted me.

Taiwanese female artist Cai Boo used the name "Cai Li Turtle" when she was a child, and also shared the origin of the name, because her father who lived in Penghu went out to see a green turtle, so he got inspired to give his newborn daughter a unique name. She said that when she was a child, she was very tired of writing her name, so she later changed her name to Cai Yu, but to say special, her sister's name "Cai Zhen Gua" is also equally impressive, but the stroke of "Gua" is still much less than that of "Turtle".
In order to celebrate the 20th anniversary of the opening of Guishan Island for sightseeing, the Northeast Corner of Taiwan's Transportation Department and the Yilan Coast Scenic Area Management Office issued a search notice to solicit "old turtle friends to find roots", in the past, they had graduated from Guishan Island Elementary School, teachers, police officers, officers and soldiers, doctors and nurses who used to serve in the past to "return to their mother's home" on August 1, and on the day of the event, people with the word "turtle" in their names could board the island for free, with a limit of 20.
As soon as the news came out, it set off a hot discussion on the island, and many netizens ridiculed this as the most "ridiculous" offer in history. Some netizens commented: "Whose name will take the turtle?" The tourism bureau is really cursing. "I really can't think of anything other than the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles." "So the big battle, is to discount a few people?" Some netizens congratulated Cai Boo: "Congratulations you can land on the island for free." "From a market perspective, the name is a success."

In this regard, Chen Meixiu, director of the management office of Taiwan's northeast corner and Yilan Coast Scenic Area, said that at first he just thought that this was an interesting activity, and he did not expect to attract such attention, they did not officially go through the household administration system to find people, but it is currently known that 4 people have the word "turtle" in their names.
Some people suggest that if the "turtle friends" do not reach the activity limit of 20, should the standard be relaxed so that those who can join the sound can also enjoy the free island landing discount? Chen Meixiu said that in fact, there have been considered plans to expand the handling, but because Guishan Island has a rich and special ecological landform, there are restrictions on the number of people who can land on the island, and the number of people invited to the island is "not much, it lies in sincerity", which also shows the preciousness of the "turtle" in the name.
It is understood that Guishan Island is a volcanic island in the Pacific Ocean, located about 10 kilometers east of the coast of Toucheng in Yilan County, Taiwan, with a total area of only 2.85 square kilometers, named because of its appearance resembling a turtle floating on the sea. In the early years, Guishan Island was a military control area, but in 2000 it was officially opened to the public for sightseeing, and was included in the coastal scenic area of the northeast corner of Taiwan, positioning itself as a marine ecological park.
