- This is a Chinese name; the family name is Zhang (張).
Zhang Hong was a minister for Eastern Wu during the Three Kingdoms era of China.
Originally from Guangling, he and Zhang Zhao were known as the "Two Zhangs". He was a close friend of the Sun family, and when Sun Jian was involved in his campaigns, Zhang Hong served him. In the days of Sun Ce, Zhang Hong was often responsible for writing memorials and essays to Emperor Xian and Cao Cao. After Sun Ce's death, he was sent to serve Cao Cao, and then was later sent by Cao Cao to monitor Sun Quan's activities. Zhang Hong, however, remained loyal to Sun Quan, and on his deathbed, petitioned Sun Quan to develop the city of Moling, which ultimately became the capital of Wu.
