In modern history, there are many stories about the four great families, and these four families are definitely a strong mark in modern history, and they were once the four most prominent families of the national authorities. Among them, the Jiang family is in power, and the other three are in charge of finance, the army, and the organs.
Once upon a time, these four families joined forces to amass a lot of wealth, and they also crushed the people at the bottom to the point of being penniless. If you want to talk about what they have done, you can't finish it for three days and three nights.
In 1949, with the collapse of the Nationalist authorities, these four families collapsed like a building, and soon declined, and there was no longer the glory and arrogance of the past.
After fleeing to Taiwan, the Chiang family was also arrogant for a long time. After Chiang Ching-kuo took power in 1975, the so-called "first" status of the Chiang family began to fluctuate, especially after Chiang Ching-kuo's death in 1988, the Chiang family seemed to have changed the world overnight, and the previous scenery was no longer there, and the rest was the descendants of the Chiang family who had no real power and could not stand alone.
Chiang Ching-kuo had a total of five sons and one daughter, two of whom were still his illegitimate sons.
But Chiang Ching-kuo never thought of it. As soon as he walked on the front foot, his four sons followed in his footsteps on the back foot. Jiang Xiaowen died in 1989, then Jiang Xiaowu died of illness in 1991, and in 1996, Jiang Xiaoyong and his illegitimate son Jiang Xiaoci died again.
In the past, the noisy Jiang family was thin in the end, which made people infinitely embarrassed. Although Jiang Xiaoyan is the illegitimate son of Chiang Ching-kuo, he has never been recognized by the Chiang family. Although Jiang Xiaozhang is an only daughter, because she is a woman, she cannot take the lead.
In fact, Chiang Ching-kuo also has a younger brother Jiang Weiguo, but he only has one child and cannot inherit the unification at all. In the end, the Jiang family could only be allowed to continue to decline.
Now, the qualifications of the Jiang family of ** and the fifth generation are mediocre, and they have long been far away, and they have no intention of fighting for power and profit. Although their status is so special that they have attracted the attention of the world, it is impossible to return to the grand occasion of the past.
If you talk about the best father-in-law in history, it must be Song Jiashu, he gave birth to three boys and three girls, three of which are quite good, two daughters became the first lady respectively, and the eldest daughter Song Ailing became the wife of the chaebol.
Although the sons are far less successful than the three daughters, they are also important figures in the national authorities.
However, among the three sisters, except for Song Ailing, who has children, the other two have nothing, but this does not affect the monstrous power of the Song family. After the Taiwanese Nationalist authorities retreated to Taiwan in 1949, the Soong family did not go in time, but moved to the United States one after another.
In 1969, Song Zi'an died of illness, leaving two sons, the eldest son Song Zhonghu was a little successful in the United States because he was good at business, and the five children born to Song Zhonghu settled in the United States for a long time and had little intersection with China.
In 1983, Song Zi'an also died of illness in the United States, and his only daughter has been living in the United States.
The most famous of the three brothers is Song Ziwen. However, after he accidentally choked to death in 1971, the three daughters lived a low-key life away from the hustle and bustle, and it is worth mentioning that the marriage of the three daughters was relatively happy and smooth, which also gave Song Ziwen a lot of comfort.
The Kong family is very wealthy, which is undoubtedly in modern history, just because the Kong family has always been very talented in doing some business, and they are very good at collecting money. In Kong Xiangxi's generation, his wife is the famous and scheming Song Ailing, with Song Ailing's help, the Kong family's industry is all over the bank, petrochemical and other aspects.
Interestingly, the Kong family is a typical family with poor wealth. Don't look at Kong Xiangxi, he has a total of four children, but these four children have different personalities and are difficult to discipline, and in the end, by the time they reach their grandchildren, they have already withered.
The eldest daughter Kong Lingyi is a very daughter, and according to legend, she even had breakfast by air from Hong Kong. However, the more such a rich lady has not gone through any ups and downs, the more she has experienced ups and downs emotionally.
Kong Lingyi let the officer's wife not do it, and fell in love with a poor boy, which made the whole family ashamed. In order to take care of the face of the Kong family, his father promoted the poor boy to the head of the bank, but the mud could never support the wall, and the marriage between the two ended in failure. Since then, Kong Lingyi has also had a second marriage, but she has nothing in her life.
The second daughter Kong Lingwei is a tomboy, she is arrogant and domineering by nature, but she treats her aunt Mrs. Jiang very filially, and Mrs. Jiang also loves this nephew. However, Kong Lingwei was never married in his life, so he naturally had no heirs.
The eldest son, Kong Lingkan, behaved perversely, had an unbearable private life, had affairs with many upper-class women, and later married a married woman Bai Lanhua, probably because he broke his body when he was young, and he had no children in his life.
The second son, Kong Lingjie, is the most outstanding child of the Kong family, he started his own company and became a Chinese industrialist after settling in the United States with his family, but because Kong Lingjie acted in a low-key manner, his descendants eventually disappeared into history.
The Chen brothers have been following the Jiang family before and after the horse, and later after the Jiang family made a fortune, the brothers Chen Lifu and Chen Guofu naturally gained fame, fortune and power.
Historically, Chen Guofu did not have children, but Chen Lifu's children were prosperous, he had a total of four children, but the descendants also left the United States due to the continuous decline of the family, and only Chen Zezhong settled in Taiwan.
And Chen Zezhong's achievements in his life are often high, he was a master of industrial design from Purdue University in the United States.
In addition, Chen Zening, the husband's other child, is also bright in his studies, he received a doctorate from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the United States, and has been doing research in the United States since then.
It should be mentioned that the grandchildren of the Chen brothers have inherited the cautious style of the Chen family, and each of them is quite good and has their own academic achievements.
Among the four major families, only the descendants of the Chen family did not rely on their ancestors, but relied on self-reliance and excellent reading ability to continue the glory of the family.
After reading their stories, you will understand a truth, that is, "no more than three generations of wealth", if these families can cherish everything they have when they are magnificent and grand, and cultivate their descendants well, future generations will not be so unmotivated, let alone so withered. I don't know what you think of seeing this?
