Timeline
Koo Chen-fu (, 6 January 1917 – 3 January 2005), also known as C.F. Koo, was a Taiwanese businessman, diplomat, and film producer.
He inherited a substantial fortune and a business upon his father's death in 1937.
He led the Koos Group of companies from 1940 until his death.
Koo graduated in 1940 and pursued a graduate degree in Japan.
Koo was jailed in 1946 for 19 months on treason charges for helping the Imperial Japanese.
As a chairman of the Straits Exchange Foundation (SEF), Koo arranged the first direct talks between Taiwan and mainland China since 1949 and served as Taiwan's negotiator in both the 1993 and 1998 Wang-Koo summit.
After his release, he took refuge in Hong Kong and only returned to Taiwan in 1949 to marry his wife, Cecilia Koo.
He focused on running Koos Group as well as on his political career that led to his elevation to the central committee of Kuomintang.
Koo was the founding chairman of the Straits Exchange Foundation (SEF).
He was also a film producer and produced a number of Taiwanese films between 1973 and 1982, such as Love, Love, Love (1974), Eight Hundred Heroes (1975), Heroes of the Eastern Skies (1977), The Coldest Winter in Peking (1981), and Attack Force Z (1982).
Born in northern Taiwan into a wealthy business family headed by his father Koo Hsien-jung, Koo attended Taihoku Imperial University (now National Taiwan University).
On 16 December 1991, a little over ten months after the establishment of the SEF, the authorities of People's Republic of China (PRC) set up the Association for Relations Across the Taiwan Straits (ARATS), with Wang Daohan as its chairman.
The following year Koo and Wang held preliminary talks in Hong Kong that resulted in the so-called "1992 Consensus" and facilitated negotiations of practical matters.
However, the content and the existence of this "1992 consensus" is widely disputed.
In April 1993, Koo and Wang met in Singapore to hold the first formal discussions between Taipei and Beijing since 1949.
The two met again in Shanghai in 1998.
On 18 October 1998, Koo met Jiang Zemin, General Secretary of the Communist Party of China, in Beijing, in what was then the highest-level talks yet held between the two sides.
The talks were called off by Beijing in 1999 after ROC President Lee Teng-hui proposed his two-states theory.
In 2001, Koo publicly affirmed that the meeting did not result in a consensus on the issue of "one-China".
Koo Chen-fu died of renal cancer on the morning of 3 January 2005 at the age of 87.
