He had in his early years travelled and worked in the mainland and become very interested in the funerary societies, found in Shanghai and other large cities, that would arrange funerals for people. He felt that this service could also be brought to Taiwan.
他早年曾至大陸遊歷，對於上海等大城市中，為人們辦理治喪事宜的葬儀社很感興趣，認為可以引進台灣。
