Wendi Deng's life model drama

Wendi Deng's life model drama On July 19, 2011, the media empire was deeply involved in the "wiretapping scandal"...

Although it became famous in the British government and the public for this incident, Wendi Deng's life legend is no longer unfamiliar to readers. Ranked first among the world's top ten super-rich wives in 2010 and fifth among the world's top ten wealthy wives in 2011, it is not an exaggeration to refer to this legendary woman from Jinan, China, with words such as "China's richest woman" and "a legendary Chinese woman". The embarrassing ending of a well-intentioned couple. Wendi Deng, formerly known as Deng Wenge, lived in Jinan and Xuzhou before being admitted to Guangzhou Medical College in 1984. The turning point in her fate occurred when she met an American couple in 1987. Mr. Jake Cherry, 50, works in a company in Guangzhou, and his wife is accompanying him. The Cherry couple not only helped Wendi Deng practice English, but also paved the way for her to study in the United States and become a world media empire.

In February 1988, Wendi Deng obtained a student visa with the help of Cherry and his wife and entered California State University to study economics. Compared with many Chinese students studying in the United States, Wendi Deng is undoubtedly lucky. The Cherrys even let Wendi share a bedroom with their five-year-old daughter and promised to fund her study expenses.

However, things took an embarrassing turn. Mrs. Cherry discovered that her husband was having an affair with Wendi Deng, and she was awestruck by the 30-year age difference between them. In February 1990, Wendi Deng married Jake Cherry, taking another step forward into American society. To obtain a U.S. green card, you need to work and live in the United States for at least two years. After two years and seven months, the marriage of Wendi Deng and Mr. Cherry came to an end. According to Mr. Cherry, their relationship broke down four months after their marriage because he discovered that Wendi Deng had another lover. Marrying into a wealthy family and reaching the pinnacle of life. In 1996, Wendi Deng graduated from Yale University Business School and prepared to seek development in Hong Kong. On the plane to Hong Kong, Wendi Deng sat next to Bruce Churchill, director of Murdoch News Corporation. Before the plane arrived in Hong Kong, Wendi Deng had easily found a job as an intern at the headquarters of a satellite TV company. Since the beginning of 1998, Wendi Deng has appeared by Murdoch's side as an interpreter during his trips to Shanghai and Beijing. Soon, her affair with Murdoch, who was 38 years her senior, became an open secret. In May 1998, Murdoch split from Anna, his wife of 31 years. In June of the following year, they officially signed a divorce agreement. Just 17 days later, Wendi Deng held a wedding with Rupert Murdoch and became the media mogul's third wife. Anna's divorce agreement with Murdoch has a condition: After Murdoch's death, Wendi Deng, as his wife, has no right to inherit any of his estate. Unless she has children with Murdoch, Wendi Deng can take custody of the inherited property when the children are minors. Anna was well aware that Murdoch had been diagnosed with early-stage prostate cancer and had to undergo radiation therapy, as well as losing his fertility. But Anna did not expect that Murdoch had already extracted and frozen his sperm before undergoing chemotherapy. On November 19, 2001, relying on in vitro fertilization technology, Wendi Deng gave birth to her and Murdoch's first child, and gave birth to another child two years later.

The wording of Western media reports on Wendi Deng is evocative. The Telegraph paraphrased Murdoch's own Wall Street Journal report as saying that in return for Mrs. Cherry's help in leaving China, 21-year-old Wendi Deng took away her 53-year-old husband. But four months after the marriage, Mr. Cherry accused Wendi of having an affair with a young man. In the article titled "How a Cannibal Wife Controls Murdoch," Gawker quoted the New York Times as saying that Wendi Deng even directly read Murdoch's private emails.

Murdoch is known for his strong sales and courage to take risks. In order to enter the Chinese market of 1.3 billion people, Murdoch gave a speech at the Central Party School and actively sought to enter the Chinese media industry. In order to maintain relations with the government, he expelled the BBC, which broadcast negative news about China, from his Asia Star TV system. People are hotly discussing the media ethics of Murdoch's behavior, and there are even reports directly criticizing Murdoch's Fox News, "Fox Owned by Communist China".
