That made him a target of a transnational repression campaign. An Chinese national identified as “K” had agreed to pay five defendants to “break the arms and legs” of Huang. After an investigation, the New Taipei District Prosecutors Office recently indicted the five suspects. On Thursday, during a standup routine, Huang detailed his horrifying experience of “cross-border repression.” - I was just doing a comedy bit, scolding Xi Jinping a little; somehow I went from being a standup comedian to a fighter for democracy. I want to especially thank Uncle Xi for his support. Comedian, Huang Yi-hao, made humorous jokes about Chinese leader Xi Jinping and experienced what some suspect to be transnational repression, even becoming involved in a staged traffic accident. In a recent standup routine, he openly recounts his absurd experience. Huang Yi-hao Comedian He asked me, doesn’t your foot hurt a lot? Do you want to get on my car and rest? I said, it’s okay, it’s okay. It’s good that I didn’t get on that car otherwise today would have been my memorial service. After the accident, the driver checked on Huang every day. Despite causing the accident the driver seemed more needy than a romantic partner, making Huang feel something wasn’t right. Huang Yi-hao Comedian When my ex got into traffic accidents, I just told her to drink hot water. Later he said because my injury wasn’t too serious, I wouldn’t get the NT$200,000 in compensation. Why did they want to see my injury report? Because my injury report was his payment request form. It turns out they weren’t being kind, and had other plans. At first, Huang thought it was an ordinary traffic accident, and both sides agreed to a settlement. The medical bill and vehicle damage came up to more than NT$200,000. Later the police felt something was off about the whole situation, and they later found that the suspect had been keeping watch on Huang for 3 days. Huang Yi-hao Comedian Let me ask you, if they break a comedian’s arms and legs, isn’t that more material for the stage? If you really want to bruise a comedian, what you do is book the entire venue with your people and tell them to do one thing. What thing, you ask? Tell them to not laugh. Line by line, he turned his thrilling experience into dark humor. It seemed that the CCP wanted to use this car accident to shut the comedian up, and inadvertently gave him more comedic material to work with.
