Shanshan Group is a fashion industry group based on clothing and textiles, which has an important position in China's garment industry.
At the beginning of the 21st century, Shanshan Co., Ltd. saw the opportunity and began to enter the field of new energy, becoming one of the earliest enterprises involved in new energy in China.
In 2021, China's top 500 listed companies announced that the market value of Shanshan shares was 54.2 billion, making it the 384th among the top 500 listed companies in China.
Earlier this year, Zheng Yonggang, the founder of Shanshan Group, unfortunately suffered a heart attack and died at the age of 65, an incident that caused an uproar in the business world.
Due to the sudden accident, Zheng Yonggang failed to arrange his funeral and the distribution of his estate, and the distribution of these tens of billions of huge assets became the focus of attention from the outside world.
And the subsequent inheritance dispute of "eldest son vs stepmother" caused an uproar and became the focus of gossip from all walks of life.
Zheng Yonggang, a typical wealthy businessman legend.
His rise from ordinary driver to billionaire is legendary.
From the garment industry to new energy, from a garment factory to a listed company, Zheng Yonggang is a leader in the business world in terms of business acumen and industry vision.
Zheng Yonggang has had two wives: his ex-wife gave birth to a son Zheng Ju for him, and his current wife gave birth to two sons and a daughter for him.
One of the reasons why this incident has attracted so much attention is that Zheng Yonggang's current wife was the famous hostess Zhou Ting of Zhejiang TV.
Zheng Yonggang met the well-known host Zhou Ting at the peak of his career.
Zhou Ting, born after 1985, is young and beautiful, with an extraordinary temperament. She studied at Zhejiang University and obtained a master's degree in broadcasting and hosting, and is an academic leader with both appearance and wisdom.
After joining the TV station, she has become a high-profile host rookie, successively working in Zhejiang Satellite TV, Dragon TV, and served as the host of CBN TV.
Zhou Ting's appearance brought freshness to Zheng Yonggang's monotonous life. Her bright eyes exude wisdom, and her bright smile has the charm of melting ice and snow.
While they love each other, they also attract many jealous eyes.
Some people say that Zhou Ting is "a junior superior", "a gold worshipper", and "climbing a high branch", while some people also say that Zheng Yonggang is a ...... "old cow eats tender grass" and "rich is good".
However, they chose each other and walked hand in hand towards marriage. After marriage, Zhou Ting became the wife of a wealthy family and gave birth to two sons and a daughter for Zheng Yonggang, and the outside world believes that she has been firmly supported in the second half of her life.
However, no one expected that within a few years, this marriage ended with Zheng Yonggang's sudden death. He left behind a huge legacy, but he also buried troubles.
Zheng Yonggang's eldest son, Zheng Ju, has been cultivated by his parents since he was a child, studied abroad and studied financial and business management, and has worked in the group for a long time.
He thought that after his father's death, he would naturally inherit control of the group.
Unexpectedly, even before his father's funeral ended, there was an unexpected situation - that is, his stepmother Zhou Ting, who was 7 years younger than him.
Appeared as the guardian of Zheng Yonggang's current wife and three children, trying to veto Zheng Ju's decision to become chairman.
She claimed that as the widow of her deceased husband and the guardian of her three children, she should have ownership of the group.
At the shareholders' meeting, Zhou Ting did not hesitate to confront the board of directors, insisting that as the legal guardian of Zheng Yonggang's three children, she should become the controller of the group.
This action was strongly opposed by the board of directors, and the two sides were locked in a standoff.
Even shocking the Shanghai Stock Exchange, on March 26, the Shanghai Stock Exchange issued a regulatory work letter to Shanshan Group, urging it to deal with relevant matters as soon as possible.
Soon after, the stepmother and stepson had a disagreement and quarreled, and the group's inheritance path was extremely tortuous.
This dispute over the property of a wealthy family reminds me of Li Ka-shing, who is also a wealthy man. Compared with the chaos of the Zheng family, the Li Ka-shing family's plan to separate the family is commendable.
As early as 2012, Li Ka-shing clearly planned the share distribution of his two sons, and they approved it. This arrangement not only avoids infighting between brothers, but also ensures the steady development of the enterprise.
If Zhou Ting had initially chosen to discuss and formulate a separation plan with her stepson Zheng Ju, rather than openly confronting her at the shareholders' meeting, the situation would not have deteriorated to this extent.
However, after some competition, Zheng Ju finally defeated Zhou Ting by virtue of his own and his mother's shares.
In the end, this power battle ended in Zheng Ju's victory. According to the inheritance law, Zhou Ting and her children can still share in the profits of the group and are not excluded.
The seemingly chaotic ending is actually the most rational choice.
Of course, for these wealthy disputes, we ordinary people just think that we just eat melons and watch the excitement.
