C hang Kuo-Ming is a Taiwanese billionaire and an heir to the Evergreen Group, the massive shipping and transportation conglomerate founded by his late father, Chang Yung-fa. He is one of the three sons from the founder's first marriage who now collectively control the family's vast business interests, which are centered on Evergreen Marine, a top global container shipping line.

Following his father's death, Chang Kuo-Ming, alongside his brothers Chang Kuo-Hua and Chang Kuo-Cheng, was involved in a succession dispute that ultimately saw them gain control of the group. He now holds key positions within the family's companies, including a leadership role at Evergreen Steel Corp. His wealth is derived from his substantial inherited stake in the various publicly traded and private companies that constitute the Evergreen Group, a cornerstone of Taiwan's industrial economy.
