Guo Chuyongzhen

Guo Chuyongzhen, born in the 1940s, is a well-known business figure in Taiwan. Detailed information about her family background and education has not been publicly disclosed. In the business sphere, she is best known as the mother of Terry Gou (Guo Taiming), chairman of Foxconn (Hon Hai Group).

In 2016, the Kuomintang (KMT) faced financial difficulties, mainly because party assets were being investigated by relevant authorities, resulting in funds being frozen and the party being unable to pay staff salaries in September and October. To resolve this financial crisis, Guo Chuyongzhen provided financial assistance to the KMT through interest-free loans, totaling NT$90 million. The loans were transferred on October 25 and 26, 2016, and the funds were deposited into the account of KMT chairwoman Hung Hsiu-chu. The first NT$45 million was transferred on the afternoon of October 25, and the second NT$45 million was transferred at noon the following day. All loan procedures were confirmed by Qiu Dazhan, chairman of the KMT’s Executive Management Committee, and the flow of funds was fully recorded to ensure legality and transparency.

As of February 14, 2017, the KMT had repaid one of the NT$45 million loans; the repayment status of the other loan was not disclosed in public sources. The KMT emphasized that all funds were used for designated purposes and denied that the lending involved privately received donations. Some public opinion questioned the motives behind the loans, but the KMT maintained that its actions complied with legal requirements and were intended to help party operations continue normally.

Guo Chuyongzhen’s social influence is mainly tied to her family background and business connections. Detailed information about her personal life and family members has not been widely disclosed, and public records do not provide more specific details about her professional activities. Her 2016 financial assistance to the KMT became a focal point of public attention at the time, but she made few public appearances in related reports and is primarily known for providing financial support.
