Everyone's understanding of self-discipline may be different, but the lifestyle of Jiang Youbai, the grandson of the Jiang family, may provide us with some enlightenment. He starts at half past five every day, and that's the basis of his self-discipline.
Wake up from the dream at half past five in the morning, go out at six o'clock to buy a delicious breakfast for the family, go home at six twenty to feed the beloved dog, set off again at seven and fifteen, send the child to school safely, arrive at the café upstairs of the company at eight o'clock, order a cup of fragrant coffee, sit at the small round table, plan and arrange the day's work, at nine o'clock, walk into the door of the studio, and start a new day ......
Jiang Youbai's life is an accurate and orderly schedule. He is imbued with an obsessive-compulsive love for every detail of life, starting at a specific point in the day, to the specialty coffee at hand, to his rigorous workout schedule.
His life is full of self-discipline, and his identity as a designer has allowed him to maintain a high level of enthusiasm for his work even after setting up his studio. After finalizing the plan, he did not choose to rest, but immediately started doing push-ups.
His determination was contagious to his colleagues, who also began to actively participate in fitness. So, in your spare time in the studio, you can often see a row of company lads doing push-ups or abdominal exercises on the floor.
This is Jiang Youbai, a person who insists on himself and loves life.
Long-term fitness can make blood vessels thicker, increase the concentration of oxygen in the blood, and then improve people's endurance and concentration. At work, Jiang Youbai is able to devote himself more wholeheartedly and show his outstanding self.
Not only is he handsome in appearance, but his years of fitness experience have also made him have a strong figure and become an idol in the hearts of many people.
Jiang Youbai, the great-grandson of Chiang Kai-shek, the eldest son of Chiang Ching-kuo's son Jiang Xiaoyong and his wife Fang Zhiyi, was born in a famous family and is the noble son of the Chiang family.
He immigrated to Canada, became a Canadian citizen, studied at New York University in the United States, and finally started his career in Taiwan. When asked for his opinion on this matter, he said flatly that he was the *** of the Jiang family, but he did not want to enter politics, he wanted the life he chose and became his "first generation of the Jiang family".
Convinced that with such an ideal, he chose the profession of designer because he was born with a passion for it, and he believed that being a designer was a profession that "combines science and engineering and empathy" and would not be replaced in the future.
However, someone who has analysed his family history has come to the conclusion that he was not so much a dream as a forced choice.
Jiang Youbai was born a year after his grandfather's death, so he has never seen this historical figure with his own eyes. Grandfather Chiang Ching-kuo was elected ** in 1978 after taking over the mantle of Chiang Kai-shek, and the Chiang family was still full of vitality, power and honor made the family prosperous.
Under the protection of his grandfather, Jiang Youbai's childhood life can be described as extremely happy, as his father's eldest son, he lived a worry-free life, was favored by his parents, and was served by people in all aspects of his life.
However, the changes in the family came quietly but suddenly, on January 13, 1988, Chiang Ching-kuo died of illness in Taipei, for a family like the Chiang family, the loss of power meant the loss of the security of life.
In order to revive the prestige of the family, his father Jiang Xiaoyong squeezed into the 13th ** Committee of the Chinese Kuomintang through various means.
Jiang Xiaoyong's decision was a big surprise, and soon after he was elected to the first committee, his family moved to Canada. As for the reason for leaving, Jiang Xiaoyong and his family were tight-lipped and only claimed that it was for further study.
According to outside reports, Jiang Xiaoyong was born into a political family and has long been tired of the intrigue of officialdom, and he hopes to start his own career in the business world. When educating his son Jiang Youbai, he repeatedly stressed that he should not engage in politics, but engage in business activities.
However, there seem to be some doubts behind this. If he really wasn't interested in politics, then why was he so keen to get into the ** committee later? In the end, did his whole family leave on a whim, or was there something else to hide?
Looking back on Jiang Xiaoyong's life, it is difficult not to doubt the truth behind it.
After Jiang Xiaoyong immigrated to Canada, the family withdrew from the **, and the young Jiang Youbai also settled in a foreign country accompanied by his father. They depended on each other in a cold and long winter, which was Jiang Youbai's childhood.
Although their life is simple, life in Canada is still a little better than that of ordinary families. However, for Jiang Youbai, he has changed from a teenager living a luxurious life to a down-and-out son.
His father's admonition made him understand that his family's current situation was not suitable for politics. Therefore, Jiang Youbai decided to take the road of business. He believes that this is a way to maximize his interests.
He can use his family's prestige to attract business, while also avoiding political troubles and not worrying about the impermanence of life.
In 2003, Jiang Youbai left his luxurious life in the United States and returned to Taiwan to devote himself to the field of design. However, in Taiwan at that time, design was not a highly respected industry, and in the eyes of the political and business circles, designers were like a play on the stage.
Therefore, Jiang Youbai's career encountered many challenges at the beginning, he was repeatedly frustrated in the business world, and experienced a lot of sophistication. It wasn't until 2008 that his company suddenly fell into financial difficulties, and the projects he had worked hard for a year did not pay off, and he could not even pay the year-end bonuses to his employees.
In the end, he decided to get the employees together, apologize to them one by one, and gave out 2,000 yuan in New Year's red envelopes each. Employees were puzzled by his behavior, believing that as a boss, it was a matter of course to pay the wages he deserved, and Jiang Youbai had to endure difficulties as a boss.
But they also understand that as employees, they are also moving forward in difficulties, which is more reflective of their shared adversity. Therefore, even if Jiang Youbai is the boss, even if he is facing financial difficulties, he should not owe his employees wages.
Through his business talents, Jiang Youbai has successfully extricated the company from its predicament and made its mark in Taiwan's design industry as the most profitable company.
His philosophy of life is the pursuit of profit, and his love for the identity of "designer" is actually just a means he takes to shape his personal image.
There is an inspirational story circulating in the outside world about him giving up his family business to fight for his dreams and hobbies, but the real thing is that he is just a shrewd businessman who takes profit maximization as the principle of his life.
He does not keep a low profile like other members of the family, avoiding public appearances as much as possible. On the contrary, his news always appears frequently in various newspapers, no matter which **, you can see him.
In 2005, Jiang Youbai participated in the Taiwanese variety show "Kangxi is Coming" with a couple scarf called "The Trap of Love".
In business, Jiang Youbai also showed a side that is not bound by principles. He had served a staunch ** element, despite the opposition of the Chiang family. Regarding this matter, he said indifferently: "I will not refuse to make money." ”
There was once a documentary that recorded Jiang Youbai's self-disciplined life, but many viewers felt awkward after **.
Jiang Youbai's life seems to be full of contradictions. The family changes in his early years made him have both low self-esteem and conceited feelings, and this complex emotion is vividly reflected in his life.
His attitude towards his employees is not as gentle and polite as he suggests, and in the documentary, he often can't control his temper and refutes other people's opinions in an impolite tone.
Although he has repeatedly emphasized that his career success has nothing to do with his family background, inadvertently, he will reveal that sense of superiority from a famous family. In fact, he may not have realized that without the Jiang family's identity, it is unknown whether he would have been able to grow the company to such a scale in just a few years.
Taking a step back, if it weren't for his birth in a wealthy family, how could there be so many ** interviews with him and invisibly build momentum for his corporate publicity?
Many wealthy children will claim that their success has nothing to do with their family, but they tend to ignore that they can catch the tail of success precisely because their family has made them stand tall enough that they can reach heights that are difficult for ordinary people to reach with a little effort.
Jiang Youbai has been committed to creating a perfect image of himself in various **, and through the two keywords of self-discipline and hard work, he has successfully created an impeccable image for himself.
Coupled with his handsome appearance, in Taiwan, this descendant of the Jiang family has won the love of many fans.
Jiang Youbai is a person who attaches great importance to marriage, he and his wife Lin Huiyi got married in 2003, have a pair of children, and have a happy married life. Jiang Youbai said that it took him more than a year to pursue Lin Chengyi, and Lin Chengyi's attitude towards him was relatively cold at first.
In order to win her heart, Jiang Youbai ran to Singapore and finally succeeded in touching her heart. After deciding to marry Jiang Youbai, Lin Xianyi chose to quit the entertainment industry and lived a life of concentrating on taking care of her family.
In the show, he announced to the world that he has a deep affection for Lin Huiyi, "I only love two women in my life, one is my beloved wife, and the other is my beloved daughter." ”
Jiang Youbai's sincere words have made countless viewers envious, and many young girls have regarded him as an ideal marriage partner. Even praised their marriage as "fairytale love".
However, this beauty is only a short-lived bubble, and even if it is brilliant, it will burst one day. Jiang Youbai was obviously not as affectionate as he once said, and in the six years after marriage, he began to feel tired.
He still enjoys being interviewed, but he says something very different from what he did a few years ago: "Living a life of two points and one line every day, it feels boring and boring. ”
Jiang Youbai divorced his wife peacefully because he couldn't bear the trivial things and pressures in life. He once said in an interview that he had lost his artistic and spiritual pursuits, and it was as if he had fallen into hell.
Jiang Youbai had an affair with the company's special assistant and spokesperson, and finally filed a divorce lawsuit against his wife. The two's 17-year marriage finally came to an end. Jiang Youbai thought that his married life was boring and boring, but he didn't think from his wife's point of view, ignoring Lin Xiyi's pain of hearing her children cry every day.
From Lin Huiyi's point of view, this beautiful woman once gave up her career for him, her long flowing hair was cut off, she took care of the daily life of her two children at home, and perhaps in her heart, marriage is not always fun.
However, as a wife, Lin has always fulfilled her duties. When the reporter photographed Jiang Youbai walking with a female subordinate, she even came forward to clarify, emphasizing that they were just ordinary colleagues.
In contrast, Jiang Youbai's behavior seems a little unfair, he is like a child who has not grown up, thinking only self-centered, never taking into account the feelings of others, but still wants to maintain his considerate and perfect image in the outside world.
There are contradictions in Jiang Youbai's personality. In interviews, some reporters asked hard questions that he couldn't answer, and he chose to avoid them, telling stories about his childhood and the death of his father.
Although he is selfish, he is reluctant to admit it, and every time he faces a problem, he mentions the pain of his childhood as a justification for his current behavior. The status of the new love Lin Huiyi in his heart has changed, from white moonlight to rice grains.
When the two were in love, he once belittled his ex, but after the two divorced, Lin Xiyi became the object of spit.
He once confessed that he decided not to marry out of love, but because of their children. His choice to marry was entirely out of desperation. After the divorce, Jiang Youbai's lifestyle has hardly changed, and he still works out, drinks coffee and works according to his own schedule.
After work, he would return to the place where he lived with his female assistant, and when he was on vacation, he would take the children out to play. However, no one can**, for someone like Jiang Youbai, how long can this new relationship last.
His body is extremely self-disciplined, but his mind is extremely free, and in Jiang Youbai's body, self-discipline and indulgence form another contradiction for him.
Jiang Youbai's name once again attracted public attention in 2019, when his ex-wife Lin Chengyi filed a lawsuit against him, demanding that he return the alimony paid in lieu of him. After the divorce, Lin Chengyi took care of the children's daily life, but Jiang Youbai did not fulfill his father's obligation to support him.
At that time, the case had gone through three mediations, but no settlement had been reached. The lawyer said that if the fourth mediation is still unsuccessful, the case will enter the trial and adjudication process.
On December 31, 2019, the former couple mediated in the Family Division of the Taipei Court. Although the mediation results have not yet been made public, on the first day of 2020, Taihai.com reported the news, and Jiang Youbai disappeared from the public eye again.
In 2021, Jiang Youbai will be 45 years old, and he has begun to live a peaceful life in middle age, no longer as keen on giving interviews as he was when he was younger. At this time, he seems to have faded away from the radicalism of his youth and has become more rational and mature.
He began to realize the importance of responsibility and no longer liked to show his head as he used to, but ran his life in his own way. In 2022, there is no news about him on **, and his lawsuit with his ex-wife has not appeared in any newspapers.
However, his life has not changed because of this, every holiday, he will take the children out for a walk, and on weekdays, the children are taken care of by Lin Huiyi. Although the past is over, they still have to face a new life, and no matter what the future holds, they will bravely meet it.
