READING

It is another busy day in a bakery. Crowds of people are lining up to buy the bread. In the kitchen, some apprentices are full of enthusiasm as they learn from the Taiwanese master baker. They all want to be the next Wu Pao-chun. Today, there are several Taiwanese people starting to take center stage in a variety of fields. They are pursuing their passions, finding success around the world, and, in the process, making Taiwan proud.

At the 2010 Bakery Masters competition in Paris, the winner of the title of Master Baker in the bread category was Taiwan’s Wu Pao­chun. It was quite unexpected that a person from Taiwan could achieve such success in the field of baking. After all, an oven is rarely used in traditional Taiwanese cooking. Wu has devoted his entire life to baking. When he was honored as one of the best bakers in the world, his years of hard work finally paid off. Unlike many other people, he did not move to Europe to set up a bakery there. Instead, he began to offer baking courses in Taiwan, hoping to help create more Taiwanese master bakers in the world.

In the world of sports, Taiwan’s Tseng Ya­ni is said to perform at the top of her game. Tseng started playing golf at a very early age, and she was determined to become a professional golfer. After an amateur career filled with victories, she joined the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA). Then, at the age of nineteen, she won the LPGA Championship. Tseng was not only the youngest player but also the first from Taiwan to win this title. Later, she was even ranked as the number one female golfer in the world.

When it comes to fashion, Taiwan’s Jason Wu has definitely taken the fashion world by storm. This Manhattan-based clothing designer became famous when Michelle Obama started to wear his dresses on many important occasions. Every time the First Lady shows up in Wu’s elegant dress, people are amazed by her beauty. Thus, it is not surprising that Wu’s designs have become a big hit around the world. Just like his designs, Wu’s personality is also worth mentioning. He is a humble person, and he has devoted himself to improving his design skills all the time.

There is a famous quotation shared by many successful people: “Follow your bliss, and the universe will open doors for you where there were only walls.” Wu Pao­chun, Tseng Ya­ni, and Jason Wu are excellent examples of this saying. They have shown that by pursuing their own goals wholeheartedly, it is possible to achieve success not only in Taiwan but also on the international stage.
