In offering some remarks, President Chen commented that he had been very concerned about the domestic film industry during his tenure as mayor of Taipei. President Chen noted that as mayor he had promoted "mosquito theaters" (outdoor screenings of films) and movie festivals, and urged Taiwanese people to give local films their support.
他表示，自己在台北市長任內就非常關心國片，曾推出蚊子電影院、台北電影節等活動，他也呼籲國人支持國片。
