Through regular interactions with the farmers and business people from Taiwan, Chen has become familiar with them and understands their needs.

During the National People's Congress session in 2023, Chen proposed opening a fast track for the Taiwan Innovation Park and further optimizing the investment environment for Taiwan compatriots and enterprises.

Currently, Fujian is creating a model for integrated cross-Strait development. Chen is hopeful about the future.

For the upcoming session of the National People's Congress, Chen said he will promote the release of more benefits for Taiwan farmers and business people to enhance the national identity, cultural identity and ethnic identity of Taiwan compatriots.

"I hope the affection between people on both sides of the Strait grows stronger to cooperate for mutual benefit and common development," he said.
