Su Guoyao 24 years old, lost love

When he was young, Su Guoyao, who was working in Tamsui and focused on sightseeing, was a hippie with long hair and torn pants. In order to win back his girlfriend who immigrated to the United States, he decided to study in the United States. But as soon as she arrived in the United States, her girlfriend said she was going to get married. That year, Su Guoyao was twenty-four years old and felt like a loser for the first time.

He has not been under much pressure from homework since he was a child, but his window to see the world is not small.

When I was a child, my family lived in Xizhi, which used to be in the countryside. My grandfather ran a coal mine, and my father had fifteen brothers and sisters. Four families lived together in a house that occupied an area of ??2,000 square meters, making them a prominent family.

My parents received a Japanese education. When I was a child, I was used to hearing my mother sing Japanese children's songs and tell Japanese fairy tales.

My father is a civil servant and worked at the American Aid Club in the past. At that time, a lot of U.S. aid supplies came to Taiwan, and I often had some European and American things at home. I remember there was a very thick book about Roman architecture. I often read it, and I thought Western-style architecture was beautiful. I also listened to records and played Beethoven's symphony in the Taiwanese Sanhe compound.

With the exchange of Western and Eastern styles, my family cannot be said to be Westernized, but it is not so esoteric.

Parents are very free, and the things they transmit to us are relatively unstandardized. My father was very "party" (meaning fashionable in Taiwanese) and could speak English. At that time, few people wore windbreakers, so he would put on a windbreaker and take us to watch movies at the International Cinema.

He often carries us around. It was the 1957th year of the Republic of China, and there was no such development in Kenting. My father took us to Kaohsiung, chartered a taxi to Kenting, and stayed at the Huawang Hotel. It happened to be the opening ceremony of the hotel. It was grand and lively. It was the first time in my life to stay there. I was very impressed with the tourist hotel.

My parents are brave enough to try new things. At that time, I felt that education in the countryside was not as good as in the city, so my family moved to Taipei. But "A cow led to Beijing is still a cow." Those who don't want to study will be the same wherever they go!
