Many people know that Hong Kong’s richest female Ho Chaoqiong’s father Ho Hongshen is also a super rich man. On the one hand, Ho Chaoqiong's success was achieved through his own efforts, and on the other hand, it was through his father's help. If Stanley Ho had not supported Ho Chiu-chiu, then Ho Chiu-chiu would not have been able to start MGM Macau.
actually has a pair of rich father and daughter, they are Taiwan's Wang Yongqing and Wang Xuehong . Wang Xuehong's father Wang Yongqing is the richest man in Taiwan. He was also the famous Chinese richest man in the 1990s, with assets of at least hundreds of billions of NT$2. Wang Xuehong is the boss of VIA Electronics. In 2011, she became the richest woman in Taiwan with a net worth of US$6.8 billion.
Wang Xuehong is different from He Chaoqiong. He Chaoqiong's success still depends on his father to a large extent, while Wang Xuehong relies on his own efforts. Wang Xuehong not only learned her father's business philosophy, but also learned her father's patriotism.
In 2008, there was a major earthquake in Wenchuan, and Wang Yongqing donated 100 million yuan without saying a word. That year, Wang Yongqing ranked second in all entrepreneurs' donations, second only to Li Ka-shing's 130 million .
Wang Yongqing also donated billions and built more than 4,300 hope novels in the mainland. In the 1980s, Wang Yongqing also hoped to invest US$10 billion in the mainland to establish a petrochemical project in the Haicang area of Xiamen. In order to promote the development of this project, Wang Yongqing met with representatives of Xiamen in Hong Kong many times. Although the project was not completed in the end, Wang Yongqing's patriotic enthusiasm is still worth learning from.
Wang Xuehong grew up in such a family atmosphere since she was a child, and naturally she learned a lot. Wang Yongqing is the boss of Taiwan Formosa Plastics Group. He has rich assets, but he is very saving and has very strict education for his children. When Wang Xuehong went to study in the United States, every penny she spent must be recorded in detail and she must never spend money indiscriminately.
1981 After Wang Xuehong graduated from the famous University of California , she did not return to Formosa Plastics Group to work. She went to work in the Volkswagen Computer PC Division and was working outside by herself. A few years later, Wang Xuehong accumulated some funds herself, so she founded VIA Electronics. At that time, Wang Xuehong's company mainly engaged in integrated circuit design and PDA foundry.
After years of hard work, Wang Xuehong's company has also become the world's 11th integrated circuit design company. The business that really makes Wang Xuehong a household name is still a mobile phone. Wang Xuehong established the HTC mobile phone brand very early, but the development of this mobile phone has always been lukewarm.
In 2009, the fourth generation of Apple mobile phone was launched. Coupled with the development of mobile Internet, the world has begun to enter the era of smartphone market. Wang Xuehong also took the opportunity to launch HTC's smartphone. The Android system launched by Google makes mobile phone business simple. As a result, global smartphones ushered in explosive growth.
At that time, mainland mobile phone manufacturers had not yet developed, and Huawei was just a small brand. HTC has rapidly developed into a brand that can compete with , Samsung, and Apple. Many people born in the 1980s and 1990s should have an impression that the high-end phones sold by HTC were no longer inferior to Apple.
Wang Xuehong also became the global mobile phone queen with HTC, and her personal net worth has also grown rapidly to US$6.8 billion. Unfortunately, Wang Xuehong's father Wang Yongqing died of illness in 2008, and he did not see his daughter achieving such a successful side.
After Wang Xuehong's career was successful, she continued to learn from her father and repay the motherland. In 2009, Wang Xuehong, as a representative of Taiwanese entrepreneurs, went to Beijing to participate in Daqing activities. In the same year, Wang Xuehong donated huge funds to build the first fully public welfare university in the mainland in Guizhou. In 2011, Guizhou Shenghua Vocational College also officially started.
Although HTC has declined now, Wang Xuehong's other businesses are still developing well.In addition, Wang Xuehong has been looking for new opportunities to stand at the top of the world again. In recent years, she has also actively invested in VR and other businesses, hoping to make new breakthroughs.
As the daughter of the richest man in Taiwan, Wang Xuehong has become the richest woman in Taiwan through her own efforts, which is indeed worthy of our admiration.
