Vem gifte sig med Czang Kaj-szek?

Czang Kaj-szek, również Jiang Jieshi (chiń. 蒋介石, ur. 31 października 1887 w Xikou, zm. 5 kwietnia 1975 w Tajpej) – chiński wojskowy, polityk, działacz republikański i dyktator, teji shangjiang, prezydent w latach 1948–1975, premier w latach (1930–1931, 1935–1938, 1939–1945, 1947), współzałożyciel i lider prawego skrzydła Kuomintangu, po śmierci Sun Jat-sena przejął po nim schedę i sukcesywnie konsolidował władzę nad Chinami. Usiłował rozprawić się z watażkami, wdał się w wyniszczającą wojnę domową z komunistami, po czym stanął na czele odparcia inwazji japońskiej. Po zwycięstwie w II wojnie światowej raz jeszcze zmierzył się z komunistami Mao, lecz został pokonany i w 1949 roku wraz z resztkami sił oraz zwolennikami ewakuował się na Tajwan, gdzie podtrzymał istnienie Republiki Chińskiej i władał nią dożywotnio. W 1978 władzę na Tajwanie przejął jego syn, Chiang Ching-kuo.

Mao Fumei (Chinese: 毛福梅; pinyin: Máo Fúméi, 9 November 1882 – 12 December 1939) was the first wife of Chiang Kai-shek, and the biological mother of Chiang Ching-Kuo.

Mao was born in Fenghua, Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, and, like most women of the era, she was illiterate. She married Chiang Kai-shek in an arranged marriage in 1901. When Chiang came back from Japan, he divorced her in 1921. She was killed in 1939 in a Japanese air raid on the Chiang family home in Xikou.

Yao Yecheng (姚冶誠, 26 August 1887 – 1966), along with Chen Jieru (陳潔如, "Jennie", 1906–1971) was among the two concubines of Nationalist Chinese leader Chiang Kai-shek (蔣介石, 1887–1975) during the time when Chiang was also in an arranged marriage to Mao Fumei (毛福梅, 1882–1939). In 1921, Chiang married Jennie. In 1927, Chiang divorced Mao Fumei and exiled Jennie—denying any association with the latter. In the busy year of 1927, Chiang also dropped Yao and married Soong Mei-ling (宋美齡, "Meiling", "Madame Chiang", 1897–2003).

Yao was a sing-song girl whom Chiang "took as his concubine" though at the time she "belonged to an elderly man who became jealous of her relationship" with Chiang. Once as she was serving bubbling-hot soup at a meal with both Chiang and the elderly patron present, the elder seized the bowl and emptied it onto her head while chiding her about the contacts with Chiang—an assault in which "the boiling liquid disfigured her, and ruined her career of entertaining men in teahouses."

Yao lived with Chiang for a time at a villa at 99 Daichengqiao Road in Suzhou. The spacious villa, later renamed Garden Hotel Suzhou, still stands and was used by the Communist Chinese government as an "official state guest house for leaders of the Party, the State and foreign countries" and visiting celebrities. It is now a hotel open to the general public.

Chiang entrusted Yao with the parenting of his adopted son Chiang Wei-kuo (蔣緯國, "Wego", 1916–1997). Young "Wego" grew up to study military tactics in Nazi Germany where he commanded a Panzer unit before being recalled to China in 1938 where he was quickly promoted through ranks up to major general in the Kuomintang's National Revolutionary Army; he later was a senior officer in the Taiwanese Republic of China Armed Forces (until 1964 when he was moved to figurehead status after the Hukou Incident).

Yao died in Taiwan in 1966 at age 79.

Soong May-ling, ofta kallad Madame Chiang Kai-shek, född 5 mars 1897 i Shanghai, död 23 oktober 2003 i New York, var en kinesisk politiker. Hon var en av de berömda tre systrarna Soong tillsammans med Soong Ching-ling och Soong Ai-ling. Hon satt i parlamentet 1928-1933 och blev då en av de första kvinnorna i Kinas parlament. Som gift med Chiang Kai-shek var hon Kinas första dam 1928-1949, och Taiwans första dam 1950-1975.
