HuangZhou
[edit]Huang Zhou (1899-1957), nicknamed Xingmin, also known as Wu Huang Zhouye, was born in Hemei Town, Changhua County, Taiwan. He graduated from the Normal Department of the Mandarin School of the Governor-General's Office of Taiwan and the Department of Politics and Economics of Waseda University in Japan. After graduation, he traveled to mainland China and visited the people's situation in Nanjing and Shanghai.
All one's life
[edit]He used to be a teacher in a public school, and later joined the Taiwan Cultural Association. He worked in the Taiwan People's Daily. He was a reporter for the first time, and later he was promoted to the director of the Chinese Department of the Taipei General Society.
In 1927, the Taiwan People's Party was founded and he served as the director of the Investigation Department.
In 1932, he served as the editor of Taiwan New People's Daily and was stationed in China. He successively served as the director of the Shanghai branch and the director of the Xiamen branch. Later, he was changed to the position of director of Changhua Branch, so he returned to Taiwan.
In 1937, the imperial popularization movement was launched. Japanese officials forced Huang Zhou to change his Japanese name. Huang Zhou refused, and the official forced him. Zhou was very angry, so he changed his surname to "Wu Huang" and his name "Zhou Ye", collectively known as "Wu Huang Zhou Ye" (literal meaning: "I am Huang Zhou") to tease the Japanese with humorous and joking, and from then on.
At the end of World War II in 1945, the Japanese army was defeated, and the Kuomintang government took over Taiwan. Later, he served as the mayor of Dajia District and a middle school teacher.
He died in 1957 at the age of 58.
