For the 1998 Cannes Film Festival, except for TTV almost all of Taiwan's news stations bought coverage from her. And if there is major news from Europe, Taiwan's news media think of Chang. Lee Tai-lin even goes so far as to say, "Carol Ann Chang is Europe."
去年坎城影展時，除了台視以外，國內幾乎全部的新聞台都向她訂購新聞，若是歐洲發生什麼大事，台灣新聞界也會想到，還有一個張桂越在歐洲，李泰臨甚至說：「張桂越等於歐洲。」
