In the 60s, in Song Ziwen's later years, a few rare family photos faded out of the political arena, and finally died in a foreign country

In the 60s, in New York, USA, a rare old photo captured the warm moments of Song Ziwen's later years, he and his little grandson Feng Yingxiang, left this photo, in this photo, Song Ziwen is wearing a brown suit and a shirt inside, revealing a calm and solemn temperament. Despite his age, his black-rimmed glasses are still his signature accessory, but the signs of age are clearly engraved on his face, with gray hair and deep wrinkles.

The little grandson Feng Yingxiang, who was sitting next to him, was immature and ignorant, showing the innocence of a child. His mother was Song Qiongyi, the eldest daughter of Song Ziwen, and his father, Fung Yan Tat, was a prominent business manager who often assisted Song Zian in banking business.

As a member of the Song family, his kinship with Song Meiling and Song Qingling has never stopped people's attention to him. As the actual "head" of the Song family, he and his younger brothers Song Zi'an and Song Ziliang together formed one of the four major families in the Republic of China, and accumulated amazing wealth with connections and political capital, which can be called a rich country.

However, Song Ziwen's wealth accumulation also has a disgraceful side, after all, he made a fortune and made a fortune, which is shameful. However, Song Ziwen has a broad vision and ambition, has studied abroad, and has received an advanced education. He served as Minister of Finance during the Republic of China and was known as the "God of Wealth", showing his talent and strength.

However, the wheels of history continued to move forward, and in 1949, with the complete defeat of Chiang Zhongzheng on the mainland, Soong also realized that his wealth and political position could no longer be sustained for long. So, he made a decision to take his whole family to the United States.

In the United States, Song Ziwen lived a chic life with years of wealth accumulation. Although he no longer has the glory he once had, he gradually let go of his attachment to fame and fortune. He and his wife Zhang Leyi have no children, but they have three filial daughters and respected sons-in-law. His mind became more and more peaceful, and his later life became happier as a result.

However, life is always unforgiving. In 1971, 77-year-old Song Ziwen left this world. At that time, his eldest sister Song Ailing and second sister Song Qingling were still alive, but for various reasons, they were unable to attend his funeral. In the end, Song Ziwen's ashes were buried in the United States, unable to return to his hometown and realize his wish to return to his roots.
