Her success in Spain has increased Real Valladolid's, as well as other Spanish clubs', interests and understandings to Taiwanese female players and also motivated the latters to challenge the world stage of football. She currently earns 200 euros with Real Valladolid and due to the low pay rumors have it she will sign with Real Madrid femenino this summer on a 1000 euros a month deal.
