1985 graduated from the economics department of Harvard University. After returning to China, he re-entered the Faculty of Law of the University of Tokyo.

1988 to 1990, studying at Oxford University, UK.
1993 resigned from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. On June 9 of the same year, she married Japanese Crown Prince Naruhito and became the Crown Princess.
200 1, gave birth to a daughter, Prince Aiko.
On July 30, 2004, officials of the Palace Office announced that Masako Owada, who had been depressed by the pressure of the royal family's life, was diagnosed as an adjustment disorder and was currently receiving treatment.
In February 2007, Blu-ray Bookstore published an English book "Princess Masako: Princess of the Anthem" by Australian journalist Ben Hills, pointing out that Masako suffered from severe depression rather than adjustment disorder, and his beloved son was actually a test-tube baby. On February 13, the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs called the book inaccurate and demanded an apology from Hills. On February 16, Toastmasters announced the cancellation of the plan to publish the Japanese version of the book.
Masako is determined to be an excellent diplomat. When Masako met Crown Prince Naruhito in 1986, she was already in charge of Japan-US trade friction in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. She once rejected the pursuit of the crown prince because she didn't want to live a life bound by the royal family.
Masako, the wife and princess of Prince Naruhito, was persecuted by the Palace Hall. Masako graduated from Harvard University and Oxford University with great talent. Before 1993 married Naruhito, she was regarded as a star of hope in Japanese diplomatic circles. Beautiful, confident and multilingual, she seems to be a pioneer who will lead the Japanese royal family into a new era of modern activity.
However, she didn't even do her first traditional "job"-carrying on the family line for the Japanese royal family. After eight years of marriage, Masako gave birth to a daughter and a little princess Aiko. So far, Aiko is the only child of the Deren couple.
Everyone cast a critical eye on Masako, and the Palace Hall was one of the important members, which gave Masako unbearable pressure. After Aiko was born, the Palace Office advised Masako not to stop giving birth, as if to force her to give birth to a male heir.
In 2003, Masako fell ill and suffered from depression. He no longer participates in any official activities (he is gradually recovering, but he has not fully resumed his royal duties). In 2004, Crown Prince Naruhito was fed up and publicly complained for his wife. Naruhito said at a news conference that his wife had completely given up on herself and didn't want to try to adapt to the life of the royal family. "Some obstacles hindered the development of Masako's career." Deren said.
Naruhito's rare confession shocked Japan. The TV media repeatedly played Deren's speech for several weeks, and the commentator's analysis of his every subtle movement and tone change-blinking, raising eyebrows and gesturing-became meaningful.
The Palace Office responded that it would pay more attention to the crown prince's displeasure. However, the outbreak of Deren's grievance against his wife cannot fundamentally change things. Naruhito and Masako only won public sympathy for them. Prince Wen Ren thought his brother's remarks were "regrettable". In order to repair the tense relationship between the royal family and the palace hall, Deren finally apologized and regretted that he had "brought trouble to the Emperor and Empress".
The crown prince and his wife always have to face the problem of childbirth. Although Masako is 42 years old, the Palace Office is still adamant about them. Since Masako's miscarriage in 1999, the Palace Office has made strict travel arrangements for Masako, expecting her to endure the pain caused by multiple births. In 2003, Toshi Utsumi, then director of the Palace Office, expressed his intention: "To tell the truth, I hope they have more children." Today, the Japanese public seems to want Masako to make further efforts. During Kiko's stay in hospital, Naruhito and Masako took their little princess Aiko on a trip to Holland. This is the first time the little princess has gone abroad for a holiday. However, some Japanese media and the public accused them of just having fun and neglecting their official duties.
