When Chiang Kai-shek was too ill to take charge of the Taiwan Province regime, Jiang Jingguo began to consider supporting his henchmen. Among the Kuomintang officials at that time, there were many officials from Taiwan Province Province, and Jiang Jingguo didn't want his subordinates to have too many relations.
During the period of 1972, Jiang Jingguo was worried about a large number of problems in Taiwan Province's agricultural production, especially the low grain output, the massive outflow of rural population and the cheap land. Jiang Jingguo's confidant, Wang Sheng, director of the Political and War Department of Taiwan Province Province, and the Secretary General of the Kuomintang Party Department also introduced Lee Teng-hui to him. They think Lee Teng-hui can help Jiang Jingguo solve the problem of backward agriculture in Taiwan Province.
However, some students from the School of Political Science initiated the movement to remove the bronze statue of Chiang Kai-shek, claiming that many policies of Chiang Kai-shek during the "martial law" period caused people's suffering in Taiwan Province Province, and withdrawing the bronze statue from the campus was a way for the Taiwan Province provincial authorities to make up for past mistakes.
If a university prides itself on academic freedom and Jiang is a controversial historical figure, then its merits and demerits should be accepted by the public. How can we completely deny his contribution to Taiwan Province Province simply by looking at his administrative mistakes?

Four families
The four families generally refer to Chiang Kai-shek, Song, Kong and Chen, and generally refer to the four families that controlled the political and economic lifeline of China in the first half of the 20th century, namely, Chiang Kai-shek's family, clan, clan and Chen and Chen Lifu's family.
There is a saying that it is the Chen family, and Song's sister Kong is. Chiang Kai-shek was the undisputed leader of the "Four Families", and it was with Jiang Zhongzheng's talent and ambition that the once incomparable "Four Families"-"Song Jiang Kong Chen" came into being. Jiang controlled politics, Chen controlled the party, Song and Kong successively served as finance ministers, and held the national financial power for a long time.
