Winston Wen-Yang Wong OBE〔(王文洋喜獲英女王勳章 上議院議員恭賀 )〕 (; born April 2, 1951 in Taipei County (now New Taipei City), Taiwan) is the eldest son of Wang Yung-ching, chair of the Formosa Plastics Group (FPG), by his second wife. Wong is now a widower with a son and a daughter after his wife succumbed to stomach cancer in 2007. Wong holds degrees in physics, applied optics, and chemical engineering from Imperial College London. His English name was chosen during his study in the United Kingdom. ==Career== Wong was executive vice president of Nan Ya Plastics, an FPG subsidiary, until a widely publicized affair (and the resulting 14% drop in FPG stocks) led to his dismissal in December 1995. His father then “banished” Wong to the United States, where he spent one year teaching at the business school of the University of California, Berkeley. While in the United States, Wong met Jiang Mianheng, son of Jiang Zemin, the president of the PRC at that time. In 2000, Wong and Jiang Mianheng co-founded the US$1.63 billion Grace Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp. joint venture in Shanghai, China. Though Wong serves as president and CEO of that company, Wong himself is not a stockholder, due to cross-strait investment restrictions imposed by the Republic of China (ROC).〔 Wong also serves as chair of the Hung Jen Group (宏仁集團) and chair of the Grace THW Group (宏仁企业集团), which are heavily invested in mainland China’s petrochemical and electronics industries, respectively.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/06/07/idUS34855+07-Jun-2011+BW20110607 )〕 The Winston Wong Centre for Bio-Inspired Technology was created at Imperial College London in 2009. In 2015, Wong was named to “Top 100 Chinese for Economic Achievements and Contributions” list by ''Management World Magazine''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.winston-wong.com/en/news/dr-winston-wong-named-to-top-100-chinese-for-economic-achievements-and-contributions-list )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Winston Wong」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
