Wang Chien-chiu presses on whether his father earned 'red money'; Shen Po-yang denies: It was all news released from Hong Kong ZH王淺秋追問父親有沒有賺紅錢 沈伯洋否認:全部都香港放的消息
Newtalk新聞 香港媒體報導,民進黨台北市長候選人沈伯洋父親沈土城的公司遭到中國制裁後,換另外一個公司的名義,繼續跟中國做生意。針對父親遭質疑賺紅錢,沈伯洋今(20)日表示,「就我所知沒有。這全部都對方在放的消息。」他並說,他家是厄瓜多台商,但香港卻抹黑成賺紅錢,還派人到台灣委託徵信社跟監他的家人,台灣人應該會感受這是不應該的。 港媒日前指稱,沈土城名下的「兆億有限公司」,2025年6月遭中國制裁,禁止與中國企業交易後,改透過另一家境外公司「VWAY」,繼續跟中國採購紡織品、保溫杯等,再轉賣中南美洲賺取價差。此外,VWAY從2022年到2025年5月,三年多對陸交易只有38筆、約60萬美元;但兆億2025年6月被制裁後,直到2026年3月,VWAY有39筆交易、約69萬美元。 沈伯洋今中午接受鋒燦傳媒FTNN新聞網節目《鄉民監察院》主持人王淺秋專訪,並重申,他爸是厄瓜多台商,他應該講1000次了。他說,父親最早在非洲經商,後來前往哥倫比亞,再到厄瓜多,在當地應該有30年。 沈伯洋指出,厄瓜多有很多當地廠商,想要買腳踏車、挖土機等東西,他家是做貿易,像是挖土機就會從日本、布料從台灣、五金從印尼進貨,至於中國則是零件類。 沈伯洋表示,中國制裁父親的時候,就說不能從中國出貨,當客戶要訂貨時就說「沒關係,那改從越南訂」。因此,他當時也開玩笑,中國在害自己的廠商。他說,他在講風險的時候都是講跟資安有關,尤其跟中國要特別謹慎,但如果是螺絲釘之類的東西就是想太多,沒有必要。 主持人追問VWAY這件事,沈伯洋強調,「完全就是他們在放的消息,我根本就不知道有這件事。」他說,最可怕的是,媒體抹黑、抹紅完全就是根據香港兩個最沒有公信力的報紙。但完全沒有證據。 沈伯洋表示,香港那時候兩個全版攻擊他,又委託台灣徵信社拍他的女兒,都是這些人在做的事。他說,以一般人的理解,他的家族是厄瓜多台商,「香港對我們的做法是抹黑成賺紅錢,還派人到台灣委託徵信社跟監他的家人,台灣人應該會感受這是不應該的」。 主持人追問,父親究竟還有沒有在大陸經商賺紅錢?沈伯洋表示,「就我所知就沒有,因為它不讓中國出貨啊。這就全部都對方在放的消息。」 沈伯洋強調,選舉過程中,他告訴大家,對於對手的家人、小孩都不要討論,因為重點是擺在市政、政策。他批評,但中國一直在害台北市長蔣萬安,一直針對他女兒、爸爸,不知道何時會針對他的太太。延伸閱讀:阿扁出手幫沈伯洋想口號!6組創意曝光 網笑翻:千軍萬馬不如阿扁出馬中國控美獨立級濱海戰鬥艦LCS-18闖仙賓礁 近年衝突一覽仍在對峙中!中國海警船關閉AIS侵擾東沙水域 海巡強勢廣播回擊統戰言論沈伯洋曝收養女兒暖心故事!小一女兒出門前緊抱不放 心疼她戴墨鏡躲偷拍防止反串、激動支持者排擠中間選民 沈伯洋將推「網路教戰守則」
