Shen Yuzhong pointed out that the CCP spreads “dubious theories about beauty” and “dubious military theories” on social media, and also uses TikTok and Xiaohongshu to carry out subliminal soft cognitive penetration. These are trends towards commercialization, organization and targeted marketing.
Shen Yuzhong also mentioned that the CCP has recently used cognitive warfare. In addition to releasing false information, it can also use real events but inaccurate operations or narratives for political purposes. For example, last year it used the international order after the 80-year war, UN Resolution 2758 and even Liberation Day on October 25 or Sun Yat-sen’s birthday on November 12 to create a narrative atmosphere that Taiwan belongs to China and that China is the People’s Republic of China, which is the “one-China principle”.
In terms of legal warfare, Shen Yuzhong continued to point out that the CCP has established a legal system for “anti-independence and force reunification” in recent years. For example, it issued “22 Articles on Punishing Freedom” in 2024 to implement its united front intention to exercise jurisdiction over Taiwan and claim it to be a legal basis for cross-border repression. Furthermore, the CCP continues to “unilaterally expand its actions” against Taiwan by normalizing patrols and law enforcement, achieving the effect of “ruling before ruling.”

In this regard, the government has always stressed that it will never accept the political framework and legal definitions unilaterally set by the CCP, and will not allow it to shape cross-Strait relations in its internal affairs to undermine our country’s sovereign status.
Shen Yuzhong reminded that the CCP will hold the “21st Party Congress” next year. To strengthen the legitimacy of Xi Jinping’s continued power, the CCP will inevitably increase its pressure on Taiwan and the united front operation. Taiwan will also face more complex and serious challenges.
