"I don't want to have a connection with the bureaucracy?" As the fourth generation of the Jiang family, Jiang Youbai said this, which has attracted the attention of many people. This "aristocratic young master" who grew up under the protection of the Jiang family since he was a child took a completely opposite path.
Jiang Youbai
His life is a parallel process of resistance and preservation. Great-grandfather Chiang Kai-shek, grandfather Chiang Ching-kuo, and father Jiang Xiaoyong are the fourth generation of the Chiang family. As a concubine of the Jiang family, Jiang Youbai has been pampered since childhood. After Jiang Youbai was born, great-grandmother Song Meiling was very happy and had high hopes for him. From an early age, food and clothing are worry-free, and learning is smooth. When he was studying in Taiwan, Jiang Youbai went all the way and came to the age of twelve.
The Jiang family
In 1988, the political situation was turbulent, and various forces clashed. Jiang Youbai's father, Jiang Xiaoyong, was deeply disturbed in his heart. In fact, a long time ago, in order to protect myself, I chose to stay away from the officialdom. As he put it: "I can do other things, but I will not do two things – the first is not to be a civil servant, and the second is not to be a party member." "So, at the time of the bloodshed of chiang kai-shek's family, Jiang Xiaoyong had already made a name for himself in the business world.
However, the title of descendant of the Jiang family did not allow Jiang Xiaoyong to completely stay out of the matter. After much deliberation, he decided to leave Taiwan to immigrate to Canada. In this way, Jiang Xiaoyong took his son and others to a completely unfamiliar country. Because of the business empire built by Jiang Xiaoyong, even in Canada, his son's life is still very luxurious.
For Jiang Youbai at that time, money was never a fixed concept, as if it was inexhaustible and inexhaustible.
The Chiang family
But this extravagant life came to an abrupt end in 1996. That year, Jiang Xiaoyong was diagnosed with esophageal cancer, and after learning this bad news, Jiang Youbai urgently went through the suspension procedures and returned to his father. In December of the same year, Jiang Xiaoyong left forever due to ineffective treatment. At the same time, "suddenly found that our family ran out of money..." Without Jiang Xiaoyong's protection, wealth followed, without power and status, and gradually declined. Prosperity faded, self-reliance and self-improvement almost overnight, Jiang Youbai lost everything.
Jiang Youbai
Gradually, however, his thinking gradually changed. In Jiang Youbai's view, the great changes in life occurred around the age of 20, and he experienced setbacks in life in advance. As he puts it: "Actually, I'm lucky because before I was 20 years old, I had already experienced the big changes that other people went through before they were 40 years old, and I did it before I was 30 years old, and others didn't finish it until they were 40 years old."
After the demise of the Jiang family, Jiang Youbai could not live under the protection of his ancestors. To everyone's surprise, the young master, who has always been comfortable, chose the most difficult path of "starting a business". He refused the help of all powerful people and set up a special design firm with his younger brother Jiang Youchang, who studied design in New York.
Incorporation of the company
Jiang Youbai named the design company "Orange Fruit". At the age of 18, under the guidance of his parents, he began to exchange money for money. At that time, Jiang Youbai showed a strong talent for business. In a short period of time, he made millions of dollars in profits. It was also from then on that his father discovered his abilities.
When the company was first established, Jiang Youbai's business became worse and worse because he could not attract customers, and some even ridiculed him. How could the young master, who had once been pampered and habitual, be so wronged? Just when everyone thought that Jiang Youbai was going to give up, his actions surprised everyone.

Later, Jiang Youbai recalled the difficulties at the beginning of entrepreneurship, and he thought to himself: "Until I am knocked down, I can get up!" Because of this, Jiang Youbai's strong will was deeply tempered. Later, the company's fame gradually expanded, and his company was recognized.
In 2003, Jiang Youbai also acquired his own family in Taiwan. Lin Jiayi is a well-known beauty in the entertainment industry. She has a beautiful appearance and a wealthy family. The first time I saw her, I completely fell into it and immediately began a crazy pursuit.
Jiang Youbai and his wife
After marriage, the two often attend various occasions hand in hand and respect each other. Later, Lin Jiayi gave birth to a son and a daughter, and the family was happy and happy. Jiang Youbai will always be a good husband and a good father. With a successful career and a harmonious family, he had a perfect image of an aristocratic prince at that time. When his career improved, Jiang Youbai's value slowly rose. No one expected such a loving life to end in separation.
Divorce between husband and wife
In 2013, Zhuang Hanyun, who studied at the University of Technology Sydney in Australia, was selected by Jiang Youbai to join his company. Zhuang Hanyun was beautiful and sociable, leaving an excellent impression on him. In just five years, she rose from an ordinary clerk to an assistant. Since then, his life has changed...
Jiang Youbai and Zhuang Hanyun's family
In 2018, Jiang Youbai was tired of living year after year, day after day. After the young and beautiful Zhuang Hanyun broke into his world, he finally decided to abandon his wife and son. According to the agreement between the husband and wife, the child is raised by the wife, and Jiang Youbai is responsible for the child's alimony. Because of this, the set of wife-loving principles that Jiang Youbai was once envied completely collapsed. For a time, people's criticism of him was incessant.
In fact, Jiang Youbai seems to have a successful career, but life is like a cute child, in the six to seven years of marriage, he once frankly said: "Really tired." "Until now, I've been learning how to take responsibility for myself. At the same time, Jiang Youbai's character is flawed, which is obvious to all. He has publicly stated that his schizophrenia is severe and his temper is also very hot. This is indeed the case.
Jiang Youbai
In 2006, he was still in the entrepreneurial stage, and the company had little property left. Jiang Youbai was furious and lost his temper, and the employees present even stopped breathing. It's still impressive today.
Shake off the past and welcome new students? In fact, he was born complicated and has been fighting with himself. He acknowledges his flaws in personal feelings and temper, but he has been taking steps to hide it to minimize the negative effects.
Jiang Youbai thought
At the same time, Jiang Youbai has been trying to get rid of the label of "the fourth generation of the Jiang family". He said: "The Jiang family will definitely rise up, but not by relationship." When a friend asked Jiang Youbai why he chose to design this road, he smiled bitterly: "Design is the only family member who will always accompany me," at that time, he regarded the Jiang family as a burden. However, as he grew older, he also developed a different outlook on life because of his surname and identity.
He and his younger brother Jiang Youchang recounted their past experiences, recorded by a special person, and compiled a book about the rise and fall of the Chiang dynasty, called "The Nobles on the Edge of the Cliff".
The nobles on the edge of the cliff
In 2010, Jiang Youbai created again and completed the supporting work of "Nobles on the CliffSide": "The Path Under the Cliff", which tells the story of working alone in a design company after the fall of the Chiang dynasty. Growing up, Jiang Youbai seems to be able to appear as a descendant of the Chiang clan. In his heart, finding the "roots" of family culture has always been his expectation.
In 2017, Jiang Youbai returned to the auditorium of Xikou Wuling Middle School and personally set up a banquet. For him, the auditorium of Xikou Wuling Middle School was built according to his mother's wishes, which is of great significance. For hundreds of years, the Chiang family's major festivals have been spent here. He took the dinner very seriously and did everything by himself. Because he is a designer, Jiang Youbai has a quick mind and sets the theme of this dinner as "guo", which means China.
Xikou Wuling
Jiang Youbai ordered the banquet to be arranged in a fixed shape. Look down from a high place and you will find that all the tables form a big "medium" word. At tonight's dinner, Jiang Youbai began to prepare early. Under jiang youbai's arrangement, it was given a new meaning. The goal of de-officialization has been radically changed in his world.
Jiang Youbai
There are many opinions, mixed reviews, and there have been constant opinions, but many people do not know where the point of concern is... The Jiang family has passed away, how can talented people behave? Jiang Youbai brought such an answer to everyone based on his own personal experience.
