Lin family from Banciao : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lin Ben Yuan Family
The Lin Ben Yuan〔()〕 (; rōmaji: ''Rin Hon Gen''), also known as the Banqiao Lin Family (板橋林家), are a Taiwanese family of businesspeople, politicians, and scholars. They rose from Banqiao, Taipei during the era of the Qing Dynasty and are still active in present Taiwan. In June 2008, ''Forbes'' ranked Lin Ming-cheng (林明成) as the 20th richest person in Taiwan. He is a member of the seventh generation of the family and the chairman of Hua Nan Financial Holdings. ==Origin== The family was descended from Lin Ying-yin (林應寅) who moved from LongXi, Zhangzhou of Fujian province in China to Xinzhuang of Qing-era Taiwan in 1784. His second son, Lin Ping-hou (林平侯), accompanied him in search of opportunities in the new frontier. Lin Ying-yin became a teacher while Lin Ping-Hou managed to work for a rice merchant. Recognizing his diligence and penchant for business, he was given the opportunity to start his own rice trading firm which sparked the beginning of his wealth and fortune. With the wealth created from the rice business, he expanded into other commodity trades and invested in real estate. In later years, Lin Ping-hou divided his portfolio of businesses into five separately owned and managed entities for his five sons. The entities were named "Yin" (飲), "Shui" (水), "Ben" (本), "Si" (思) and "Yuan" (源), which is a meaningful proverb and a strong family value. It literally means to always remember the source of the water which we are drinking; a constant reminder to be grateful and respectful of the origins, ancestry or reasons for the favourable or better current conditions. From the eldest to the youngest, the sons were Lin Guodong (林國棟), Lin Guoren (林國仁), Lin Guohua (林國華), Lin Guoying (林國英), and Lin Guofang (林國芳). Two of the brothers, Lin Guohua and Lin Guofang, who were respectively the third and fifth children, united their business entities they had received, Ben and Yuan, and so the family name became "Lin Ben Yuan".
