How Much Wealth Does Song Meiling Have In His Life: Equivalent To 2 Billion 100 Million Now (Photos)

Property in the US in 1949

When Song Meiling went to the United States for help in November 1948, he was treated with cold reception by President Truman.

Truman had lost confidence and hope for the Kuomintang at that time. He kept talking with his assistants about the "corrupt officials and bad guys" in the Kuomintang government, and pushed the two families of Komin in the first place. During the war of resistance against Japan, they had made great trouble in developing the national financial difficulties, intercepted American aid, used to set up their own companies, sold American aid materials to China, and plotting their own interests. During the civil war, they repeatedly extended their hand to the US government and put a large number of dollars into their own enterprises. Before the collapse of the Kuomintang regime, they moved the property overseas, especially the United States.

Can this make Truman angry?

When Song Meiling failed to seek help at the end of 1948 and early 1949, she hurried to deal with her private property in the United States and let her nephew Kong Ling help.

At that time Kong family bought a property worth 1 million 500 thousand US dollars.

According to information, Kong song two (Kong Xiangxi and Song Ziwen) mainly used American aid materials and their special ways to speculate in the US in 40s. They were found to have tens of millions of dollars in tax evasion by the US Treasury Department, and they were reported to President Truman.

The joint investigation by the Central Intelligence Agency and the US Treasury found that the illegal property in the United States had reached more than 2 billion U.S. dollars. It was said that antiques, paintings, jewellery and gold, which were unknown to the US bank insurance vault, were said to be frozen.

But at last, it turned out to be a mystery.

The above data can be analyzed as follows: (1) the assets of the Kuomintang government should be distinguished from the private property of the so-called "four big families"; (2) in 1949, the investigation of the property of the two families in Kong and song has been inconsistent so far.

Song Meiling was at the front line during the war of resistance against Japan.

Where did Song Meiling's main income come from in the rest of his life? Before Jiang Jieshi died (April 5, 1975), he would give Song Meiling an allowance every two or three months.

So did Jiang Jingguo after he came to power.

In October 1983, at the invitation of Jiang Jingguo, he returned to Taiwan and published the long text of "I will reappear", helping Jiang Jingguo to appease the senators and military personages in the party, to defuse the resistance of innovation, and finally to open the party's ban.

When Jiang Jingguo died in January 1988, he participated in the arrangements and cancelled the martial law.

After retiring from politics, he reclued in Taipei's Shilin residence.

When Jiang Jingguo died (1988), when Song Meiling and Li Denghui met, they demanded: "you know, when the state is in office," the presidential palace "gives me a sum of money every month. Now that the country has passed away, I wonder if you will still give me this sum of money. After all, Song Meiling should enjoy the treatment of the widow who is removed from office.

Li Denghui generally satisfies her wishes for Song Meiling.

(6) who's a huge amount of spending in the United States? The Taiwan times weekly reported that at the beginning of Song Meiling's settlement in the United States, she had no property in her own name.

It seems to be in line with the actual situation.

Because her life was attached to her husband's family, she stopped managing money.

So how did she live these years? How much money did she need each year? When Song Meiling published the Sino US joint communiqu in 1972, she felt that she had nothing to do in safeguarding Taiwan US relations and pferred her energy to running the industry.

Invest in the oil and natural gas industry in the United States.

In the middle of 1984, the United States International News Agency reported a telegram: "Mrs. Song Meiling of Chiang Kai Shek invested $five million to sign a contract with the Texas Philli Petroleum Company, and to cooperate in the oil and gas exploration near New Mexico."

It turned out that Kong Lingjie was in the name of his aunt.

Besides, Kong and song are a family.

Concentrating on shopping malls is also a helpless choice for Song Meiling to be forced to withdraw from the political field.

After Jiang Jieshi died in April 1975, half a year later, Song Meiling went to the United States to recuperate.

And then stayed in the United States for several times.

For the first time, Song Meiling (1975) left Taiwan for the United States and moved to the old home of Kong family in locust Valley, Long Island, New York.

Only three or three sorties were delivered to the luggage. Only second boxes of luggage were left when leaving Taiwan in 1991.

As for the locust Valley house, a two storey building with a loft on sale in 1998, a total of 3 million dollars, or 100 million NT dollars, was sold.

But the buyers later indicated that they really looked at the calligraphy and painting antiques in the house. According to conservative estimates, the value of those paintings and antiques exceeded the selling price.

In addition, the old lady's residence in New York, Manhattan, was also owned by Confucius.

After the death of Jiang Jieshi, the Taiwan authorities released the implementation measures of the "outgoing president's courtesy regulations" in May 1978, stipulates that the spouses of the "outgoing president" can not only be invited to participate in the ceremony, but also enjoy 2 vehicles and 2 drivers; 3 or 4 persons handling matters and the corresponding paction fees.

Internal and external health care in Taiwan includes all costs required by private doctors and health checks, as well as security guards provided by the "National Security Bureau" according to the actual situation.

According to these regulations, the presidential palace set up a budget of 4 million 160 thousand yuan in 2003.

It is worth noting that, according to the regulations, whether Song Meiling is in Taiwan or overseas, all medical expenses are paid entirely by the Taiwan authorities, and they are reimbursed without any upper limit.

Although she was in the United States, the medical personnel stationed in the United States' presidential palace in Taiwan before the death of 2003 had a salary of at least 50 thousand yuan per month, plus holiday bonus, at least 6 million yuan a year for 6 people.

So in order to take care of Song Meiling, it costs at least NT $10 million a year (RMB 2 million 500 thousand yuan). [Note: at the beginning of this century, NT $4:1, or 100 NT $25]{page_break}.

However, there are also rumors that Song Meiling's life in the United States does not depend solely on the expenses provided by Taiwan, as well as the "secret funds" of Chiang's family.

Hongkong's "Ming Pao Monthly" in the December 2003 issue of "super size" has published an album entitled "Song Meiling's love across the century" on the death of Song Meiling. He wrote that Mrs. Jiang Jieshi, Song Meiling, died in his dream at the age of 106, and has been taking care of aunt Song Meiling's Kong Lingyi (Kong Xiangxi girl) for many years. He told reporters that after he came to New York in 1991, he only asked her once in twelve years: "is there enough money?"

After that, Song Meiling stopped asking about money and left behind only 120 thousand dollars in the bank.

Song Meiling did not have any last word, did not commit to the funeral, and never made a will, just like Kong Xiangxi and Song Ailing.
