Wei Yung, a Kuomintang legislator who wrote a preface for the book, says that the author's not using his real name shows that he "understands the nature of political discourse in Taiwan"; in addition, "it is a brilliant gimmick to boost sales."
為作者寫序的國民黨籍立法委員魏鏞表示，作者不以真名示人，是他「瞭解台灣政治生態的睿智決定，也是一種高明的促銷方法」。
