The Linkou Police Substation recently successfully cracked down on a fraud group led by a suspect surnamed Yang, using the method of impersonating convenience store 'Sell Goods Conveniently' customer service for scams, causing 7 victims to lose approximately NT$1.46 million.

The case was difficult to investigate, but the substation managed to connect the main suspect Yang and driver Lee through extensive surveillance footage, successfully revealing evidence of their roles.

Soong Meiling, the second wife of Chiang Kai-shek, played a significant role in seeking American support for China during the resistance against Japan. However, during the Chinese Civil War, her radical remarks contributed to the U.S. gradually withdrawing from involvement, leading to the defeat of the Nationalist government and their retreat to Taiwan. Despite her previous successes, the changing global landscape marked by the Cold War era diminished her influence, as exemplified by a conversation with President Truman where she questioned why the U.S. did not drop atomic bombs on China if they possessed them, leaving Truman stunned. This ultimately led to her return to China, facing the reality of losing the mainland to the Communist forces alongside her husband.
