He completed college studies part-time work and study. He has served as a water lifeguard, an amateur swimming coach, etc. He is eloquent, loves sports and drama, and was a popular figure in college. He graduated from Eureka College in Illinois in 1932 and worked as a sports announcer on radio shortly after graduating from college. In 1933, he was admitted to WOC Radio Station in Davinbet, Iowa, and then went to work for Radio WHO in Des Moines. In May 1937, he entered Hollywood as a movie photographer and acted in more than 50 films, becoming a "second-rate star" in Hollywood. He joined the army in April 1942 and served in the 1st Film Team of the Army Air Force. In the mid-1960s, with the strong support of California's powerful groups, he abandoned his political career and served as governor of California for eight years. He officially joined the Republican Party in 1962 and lost twice in the presidential election in 1968 and 1976. Elected as the Republican presidential candidate in 1980. In the same year, he defeated Carter and became the 40th President of the United States (served from January 20, 1981 to January 20, 1989). He took office in January 1981 and expired in January 1989.

Later, his political thoughts gradually changed. In 1947, he gave anti-communist testimony on the House "Un-American Activities Committee". In 1962, he officially transferred to the Republican Party and became a representative of the Republican Conservatives. His credo is: "Please please business and attack big government." After Reagan moved to the White House, he made major adjustments in domestic and foreign policies. Internally, it has changed the set of economic policies that the U.S. government has followed the "New Deal" for many years and pursued "Reaganomics", which has obviously changed the long-term "stagflation" situation of the U.S. economy. Externally, it is known for being tough on the Soviet Union, vigorously expanding its armaments, taking advantage of the United States 'scientific and technological advantages, and proposing an ambitious "Star Wars" plan in an attempt to "cheer up and suppress opponents." He began to reverse some trends in the Carter era that were unfavorable to the United States, and negotiated with the Soviet Union based on its position of power. Reagan was once one of the well-known pro-Taiwan figures in the United States, but after he took office, he had to face reality and value and develop relations with China based on the global strategic interests of the United States. In terms of political style, he is conservative in political thinking, but has a certain degree of flexibility. He adopts more policies and propositions of moderate and conservative Republicans, and takes into account the interests of other factions of the two parties. He only focuses on big things and relies heavily on think tanks. Visiting China in 1984. Author of "Reagan's Memoirs".
