"After the famous door", "the descendants of the revolution", these words can always firmly catch people's attention. People are always curious about the famous soldiers in history, and people are naturally very concerned about their descendants.
Qiao Guanhua was once a famous foreign minister of our country, and he had two wives and three children in his lifetime. Among them, the stepdaughter Hong Huang, many people are familiar with. So who are Qiao Guanhua's other two children, and what is the current status of their lives?
Father Qiao Guanhua
In 1971, the 26th session of the United Nations General Assembly regained China's legitimate seat in it. The Chinese delegation was led by Qiao Guanhua, who was then vice minister of foreign affairs.
On behalf of China, he made his first sonorous and powerful speech at the United Nations General Assembly, which won warm applause and high praise from the representatives of various countries and major news media present. His unbearably dashing laughter at the meeting was captured by the reporter at the time and became a classic.
Qiao Guanhua has been talented since childhood, and was admitted to the Department of Philosophy of Tsinghua University at the age of 16. After graduating from Tsinghua University, he studied in Japan and Germany and obtained a doctorate in philosophy. In 1938, Qiao Guanhua gave up the opportunity of further study in his motherland and returned to Hong Kong as the editor-in-chief of the Evening News of Current Affairs, and began to publish international commentary articles.
After the founding of New China, Qiao Guanhua was mainly responsible for foreign affairs. He has served as Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs, Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs and Minister of Foreign Affairs. He has made outstanding contributions to the diplomatic work of New China and is an outstanding diplomat of our country.
Qiao Guanhua had two wives in his life, the first wife was Ms. Gong Peng, a famous diplomat in China. In the 1940s, Qiao Guanhua and Gong Peng fell in love and married while working together in Chongqing. The year after their marriage, Qiao Guanhua and Gong Peng's first child was born and named Qiao Zonghuai. In 1953, the couple's second daughter, Qiao Songdu, was born.
In 1970, Gong Peng died of illness. Three years later, Qiao Guanhua married his second wife, Zhang Hanzhi. Zhang Hanzhi and her ex-husband have a daughter, that is, Hong Huang, and since then Qiao Guanying has become Hong Huang's stepfather.
Eldest son Qiao Zonghuai: The son inherits his father's business
Qiao Zonghuai's name is still somewhat derived, Qiao Guanhua and Gong Peng's hometown is adjacent to the Huai River, in order to commemorate this irrigation and nurturing the people on both sides of the mother river, Qiao Guanhua and Gong Peng for their first child to take the Huai River "Huai" character as the name.
When Qiao Zonghuai was born, his parents were very busy, and it was very difficult to take care of children while handling various affairs. In order to take care of both ends, Qiao Gong and his wife often put Qiao Zonghuai's crib in the office, and the comrades in the mailroom often took Qiao Zonghuai on duty together to welcome guests together. Therefore, one of the first sentences that Qiao Zonghuai learned was "goodbye".
Qiao Zonghuai grew up in such an environment, and the deepest impression his parents gave him was the hurried pace and the back of the work. It was the golden age of Qiao Gong and his wife, and it was also the growth process of Qiao Zonghuai. Perhaps the influence of his parents is too profound, Qiao Zonghuai has been following in the footsteps of his parents.
In 1963, at the age of 19, Qiao Zonghuai was admitted to his father's alma mater, Tsinghua University. After graduating from university, Qiao Zonghuai was assigned to the Aerospace Medical Engineering Research Institute of the National Defense Science and Technology Commission for internship, staying for ten years.
During the death of his mother, he was affected by the struggle, and there was also a storm of his father's second marriage, which made Qiao Zonghuai depressed and had no fighting spirit. Qiao Zonghuai and Hu Yaobang, who was also affected at that time, became friends for a long time, and under Hu's care and encouragement, Qiao Zonghuai was admitted to the Chinese Academy of Sciences after the college entrance examination was resumed.
After graduating with a master's degree, Qiao Zonghuai was quickly reused, and after a period of studying in Hong Kong, he was appointed deputy secretary-general of the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency. At this time, the 40-year-old Qiao Zonghuaizi inherited his father's business and, like his father, began to shine in the field of Chinese diplomacy.
In 1991, Qiao Zonghuai began a 10-year career as an ambassador abroad. He has served as ambassador to Finland, ambassador to North Korea, ambassador to Sweden, etc. No matter which country he goes to, his gentle elegance, cordial and warm demeanor allow him to quickly integrate into the local area.
This can't help but make people sigh: tiger father has no dog. In 2001, Qiao Zonghuai became China's vice minister of foreign affairs, as if practicing the life path of his father Qiao Guanhua.
Second daughter Qiao Songdu: Remembering her parents
The second daughter, Qiao Song, did not embark on the same diplomatic path as her parents and brother. Born in 1953, Qiao Songdu is the pearl in the palm of Qiao Guanhua and Gong Peng, and has been loved by the whole family since childhood.
She studied at the 262 Hospital of the Beijing Military Region, was later admitted to Tianjin Medical University, and after graduation worked as a military doctor in the 262 Hospital of the People's Liberation Army. From the 1980s to the 1990s, he studied in France and the United States, and now works in a unit under the State Council.
It may be because Qiao Songdu lost her mother at a young age, so that she has always had a deep nostalgia for her mother, and Qiao Songdu believes that there are too few records of her mother as an outstanding diplomat in history. So she decided to write a book for her parents, restoring the legendary life of the revolutionary couple and their deep feelings for nearly 30 years.
Qiao Songdu prepared for the book for 8 years, and finally published this book in 2008, "Qiao Guanhua and Gong Peng: My Father and Mother".
Josson recalls mentioning that their parents had a profound impact on them. Qiao Songdu was born after the founding of New China, but his parents' work did not relax in the slightest. In her impression, her parents always rushed into the car to go to work because of their busy work, and did not come back late at night.
Whether they are running to the battlefield filled with smoke and smoke or going to an international negotiating conference, they always have no complaints, do not care about gains and losses, and diligently and earnestly contribute to the diplomatic cause of the motherland.
Qiao Gong and his wife's hard work, patriotism and love for the people, and perseverance have left a precious wealth for both Qiao Zonghuai and Qiao Song. To this day, Qiao Songdu and Qiao Zonghuai have carried forward the spirit of their parents and served the people in their respective posts.
Stepdaughter Hong Huang: A famous woman
Speaking of Qiao Guanhua's stepdaughter, Ms. Hong Huang, many people are not strangers, and her early emotional entanglement with Chen Kaige has been discussed from time to time. Spicy dare to say that the straightforward and dashing Hong Huang was once called a "famous woman" by the media, and Hong Huang did not care about it at all.
The remarkable background makes Hong Huang exist as "Zhang Hanzhi's daughter" or "Zhang Shizhao's granddaughter" for a long time, and perhaps "rebellion" is the best way for her to find her name, and living authentically is what she pursues.
Now when people talk about Hong Huang, they call her by her name directly, and they will not add other prefixes to her specifically, because she is dazzling enough.
Hong Huang is a veritable celebrity, except that his stepfather is Qiao Guanhua, the foreign minister of the new China. Her grandfather was the famous Zhang Shizhao, and her mother was Zhang Hanzhi, the adopted daughter of Zhang Shizhao, and like Qiao Guanhua, she was also a famous diplomat.
Born in such a family, Hong Huang was pinned high hopes on from the beginning, and his mother once hoped that Hong Huang would return from school to become a diplomat. Hong Huang, who was only "rebellious", did not listen to her mother's choice, and after graduating from Wasser College, she began to work in foreign companies, and the remuneration was very rich.
This job, which outsiders are very envious of, Hong Huang has long been tired of. In 1996, Hong Huang resolutely gave up his high-paying foreign company job and began to return to China to "upgrade and fight monsters" to start a business.
She keenly aimed at the field of fashion magazines that were not much developed at that time, and despite the difficulties and challenges, Hong Huang quickly produced three magazines: "Famous Brand World Music", "Youth Family" and "iLOOk World City".
In addition to running magazines, Hong Huang's writing is also very good, her early blog views are novel, and the amazing style of speech is very popular, according to incomplete statistics, Hong Huang's blog has as many as 100 million hits. Now, she is still very active in the domestic fashion circle and the Internet, and in 14 years, she also starred in the role of the villain Qin Sainan in Jiang Wen's movie "One Step Away".
These are the three children of Qiao Guanhua, the new Chinese foreign minister, who either inherit their father's business or develop new interests, no matter what choice they make, they all make great efforts in their own fields.
In addition to the family's influence and help, it is more of their own efforts. There is no eternal fame, the brilliance of the family is always dim at that moment, and the only thing that can be relied on is their own strength.
