What the wealthy are most afraid of is the "curse" that people say "rich for no more than three generations". Looking back at history, we can see that many families prospered on the road of chasing wealth, but many families perished in wealth bubbles.
However, for the Huo family, the richest man in Hong Kong, it seems that he is not worried about this issue. From Huo Yingdong to Huo Zhenting, and then to the three Huo Qigang brothers, their wealth continues to grow, and there is no sign of decline at all.
From the beginning, the Huo family has developed from one door, and wealth, fame and identity have always been its accumulation and continuous escort.
This book is Fok Yingdong's secret treasure, and it also shows the cruelty and ruthlessness of the wealthy family.
Liu San's mother taught Huo Yingdong the method of inheriting the glory of the family alone, and his respect for the big house itself laid the foundation for the Huo family's century-long prosperity.
When we mention this, we can't help but think of another wealthy family: the He family.
The gambling king of the He family had many wives and concubines and children, although he was once worth a lot of money, but after his death, his family wealth was scattered, and he disappeared like a goddess scattering flowers.
The status of the long room has plummeted, while the second room has an absolute advantage, and the other three and four rooms have their own highlights. In the competition for wealth, many children showed their talents, resulting in the gambling king's family business in jeopardy.
The three Huo brothers also had a dispute over wealth and eventually went to court, isn't this a rebuttal to those who are not convinced?Which wealthy family can avoid inheritance disputes?
Inheritance is the focus of contention for the wealthy, and the estate is clearly the most important part of the inheritance. Probably so to speak.
The Huo family has a rule that only the children of the big house can participate in the family business, while the children of the second and third rooms are not allowed to get involved.
This may seem a bit harsh, but it has laid a solid foundation for the family's wealth inheritance and sustainable development, showing a strong side. It is on this basis that the century-old foundation of the Huo family has continued to grow and become more and more stable.
The ruthlessness of the Huo family's elders may lie in the exclusive respect for the big house, which to a certain extent ensures that the inheritance of the family business meets the requirements of monogamy.
However, for children in the second and third bedrooms, although they have parents, there are few opportunities to actually have both parents at the same time. This will inevitably have some impact on their growth.
Fok Yingdong started from a downfall and saw the biggest drawback of a family's development and continuity: the more wives and concubines, the more children, and the more children, the more disputes. But how does that make a difference?
From ancient times to the present, neither the imperial family nor the ordinary wealthy family can get rid of the struggle between their children after the death of their father.
Because they have the same bloodline, but because they come from different mothers, they are more unscrupulous in the fight.
In the history of the Qing Dynasty, the tragic scene of nine sons seizing the heir is heartbreaking. This is a brutal fight between relatives with the same surname, a tragedy of cannibalism, and anyone who knows anything about history should remember this lesson, this history is too bloody.
To a certain extent, Fok Yingdong's exclusive house is a wise move to avoid family infighting and effectively ensure the good and orderly development of the family business.
According to insiders, the reason why Huo Yingdong took such an action is inseparable from the support of his mother Liu San.
As a man, he simply couldn't resist the ** of wives and concubines that were popular at the time, which may be a test for all men, and also had an impact on the family industry.
Liu San is a woman with multiple children, and she expects her husband to be with her in the wind and rain, from a female perspective.
Liu San showed her mother-in-law's greatest determination after her son got married and started a business, that is, she resolutely opposed her son's concubine.
Seeing this, I believe that many women will want to be like a mother-in-law like Liu San, after all, every woman hopes to meet this kind of mother-in-law full of positive energy.
With Liu San's keen vision back then, he chose Lu Yanni as his son Huo Yingdong's partner, and followed the arrangement of his parents, and found a marriage for his son who could really share the ups and downs with him and spend hardships together.
At the same time, Liu San also did not forget to support the hard-working Lu Yanni.
Huo Yingdong's life is becoming more and more beautiful, and the number of women around him is increasing day by day, and the elderly Lu Yanni lacks an emotional foundation with her husband, how can she occupy a place in his heart?
Just when Huo Yingdong became famous, his former lover Feng Jianni and his child suddenly appeared, which made Huo Yingdong fall into the test of fame for a while.
Liu San acted decisively: Lu Yanni accompanies you from scratch, you can't marry a noble wife. She has affection for you, you must be righteous, and you can't marry again.
People often refer to emotions as luxury, not only because of its uncertainty, but also because it often touches the softest places in the heart at the most unexpected times.
Huo Yingdong had no conditions back then, so he didn't dare to look forward to love at all.
When a person's wealth is accumulated, his inner emotions are fully revealed: Feng Jianni is the woman he really loved, so he does not want to miss out on this relationship.
This is the human heart, which spontaneously classifies feelings, some people can ignore feelings, while others are seen as emotionally delicate.
Although Fok Yingdong is the richest man, he is not mediocre. In order to marry Feng Jianni, he even discussed the conditions with Lu Yanni in person without hesitation.
Liu San realized that the situation was no longer optimistic, and he could only find a new way out for his daughter-in-law and grandson: Feng Jianni could not be treated more than Lu Yanni at home, and her children could not get involved in the family business.
This request may have been just to support the Lu family's mother and son, but the old lady's wise move inadvertently laid the foundation for the Huo family's century-old foundation.
Huo Yingdong attaches the most importance to sticking to this behavior to the end: a big house is a big house, it represents his external image, even the favored second and third rooms cannot cross the line.
Therefore, even if Huo Yingdong later married Lin Shurui's third room, and even doted on her, he did not break his promise to his mother and his oath to Lu Yanni.
In this process, it can be seen from the fact that Feng Jianni and Lin Shuduan gave birth to children for Fok Yingdong, they are not people in the same room, but they come from different backgrounds.
Lu Yanni's children's names are: Zhenting, Zhenhuan, Zhenyu, Liping, Lina, and Lili. And Feng Jianni's children only have names that start with the word "Wen": Wen Fang, Wen Bin, and Wen Xun. As for Lin Shuduan's children, they are all names that start with the word "xian": show light, show up, show strong, and show whirl.
They have their own unique identities and names, and although they are both called Fok Yingdong's fathers, they each occupy the most appropriate place in the big house, and no one can compete with them.
Huo Yingdong clearly told all the family members that the hostess of the Huo family can only be Lu Yanni, and the person who will inherit the family property in the future can only be her son.
No one else is allowed to touch the family business, except for the eldest son of the eldest house.
The Huo family's family rules are formulated in this way: all family property belongs to Lu Yanni and her children, and anyone who violates it is no longer considered a member of the Huo family.
The strength and courage they showed even surpassed that of the former emperor's house.
Fok Ying-tung takes emotions very seriously, especially in front of the family business and the wife of the chaff. However, when he had to act decisively, he would not hesitate to make decisions for the children of the other two houses, even leaving a ruthless label.
It is said that in order to suppress the children of the second and third rooms, Huo Yingdong has never taken pictures with them publicly.
This father may be a bit harsh, but his actions effectively maintain the status of Lu Yanni's mother and son in the family, and ensure the true inheritance and sustainable development of the Huo family's estate.
Although Fok Ying-tung's move was effective in curbing large-scale disputes between family members, it failed to prevent instability within the small family.
After the death of the Fok brothers, the family business sparked a fierce court dispute. However, in this battle, the people in the second and third rooms never showed up, as if they were ** and were excluded from the Huo family.
Huo Yingdong's words as a king are enough to inherit the country, but his father seems to lack love. It seems that monogamy may be the greatest tenderness to human beings, do you think?
