The red capitalist Rong Yiren died in Beijing, and his only son was worth tens of billions.
Rong Yiren's family is known as the most powerful consortium in China, which is a high evaluation of them. The success of the Rong family is not accidental, they not only have business acumen, but also charisma.
When the country was in danger, Rong Yiren stood his ground, advanced and retreated with the country, and won the respect and love of the country and the people. When other enterprises went bankrupt, Rongjia enterprises stood tall, and Rong Yiren was also known as the "red capitalist" and made great contributions to the construction and development of New China.
The Rong family's business empire began with Rong Yiren's grandfather, who was born in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province in 1916, and the Rong family's fortune can be traced back to his grandfather's generation. "
Rong Xitai's grandfather was born in a family in Jiangsu, and when he was a child, he mistakenly boarded a ship from Suzhou to Shanghai, and since then he has the idea of developing in Shanghai. Due to his young age, his father found him a job as a cargo guard at the Shanghai docks, a decision that inadvertently saved his life.
During the Taiping Rebellion, the Rong family suffered misfortune in their hometown, and only Rong Xitai in Shanghai escaped. Later, he was promoted to charge of collecting taxes on passing ships, recognizing the importance of the economy to development.
So, in 1896, he and his friends set up a joint venture to establish a money bank. However, before his career could take off, he died of a serious illness at the age of 48.
Rong Xitai's legacy left him two sons, Rong Zongjing and Rong Desheng, rich funds, which they used to create flour mills and textile mills. During the period when Shanghai's cotton yarn soared, they took advantage of this opportunity to rapidly expand the scale of their enterprises and accumulate a lot of wealth.
Rong Zongjing once said: "Half of the Chinese are eating us and wearing us." This sentence fully illustrates the influence of the Rong family at that time. Rong Yiren was born into a family of big entrepreneurs, and he was born at the height of the Rong family's industry, so he enjoyed a superior life and a high-quality education.
Although Rong Yiren was born into a wealthy family, he never felt superior to others. When he was a child, his father let him go deep into the factory to study, eat and live with the workers, and did not discriminate.
Instead of complaining, he understood the hardships of the workers better. Such a growth environment played a key role in his production. In 1937, Rong Yiren graduated from the Department of History of St. John's University in Shanghai, when Japan's full-scale war of aggression against China had broken out, the people were living in hardship, and enterprises were closing down.
Many entrepreneurs have chosen to flee China, and the Rong family's business has been severely affected as a result. After the Japanese invasion, they seized schools, textile factories, flour factories and other facilities, and gradually deepened their influence on China.
The Rong family has many industries, so it is natural for Japan to target. Although life is full of challenges, Rong Yiren persevered, and his tenacity and courage have won him the respect and recognition of many people.
In order to avoid trouble, Rong Zongjing left Hong Kong, while Rong Desheng chose to stick to Shanghai and resist Japanese aggression. Helplessly, Rong Zongjing passed away, the Rong family lost its backbone, and the company was crumbling.
The 22-year-old took over the burden of the family and ran it with his father. As a "red capitalist", he dedicated his family business to the state free of charge. In the face of the threat of Japanese businessmen, Rong Desheng resolutely stated that he would never sell the factory and personality, and his spirit of "rather than broken jade than complete tile" is admirable.
After the hardships of the war of aggression, the Rong family struggled to recover for a while, however, the civil war in China began again, plunging the people into war again, and the Rong family's property once again became the target of others.
In order to increase their strength, the Kuomintang vigorously developed the industrial and military industries, but due to lack of funds, they began to exploit from civilian enterprises, and the Rong family became their main target.
In order to occupy the wealth of the Rong family, the national ** tried their best, and even charged the Rong family with a trumped-up charge, accusing them of inferior flour to the national **army**, which led to food poisoning among the soldiers, and eventually led to the loss of the Northeast.
National** detained them on this charge and threatened to take them to court for prosecution. Fortunately, the People's Liberation Army liberated Shanghai in time, and the dispute between the Rong family and the people was resolved, and the Rong family escaped.
Although the war of liberation was won, many businessmen still had a sense of distrust of **, and they feared that they would encounter ** who would loot the people again. 's credibility has greatly declined, and many people have chosen to leave China with their possessions.
The Kuomintang is unreliable, and whether the PLA can be relied upon is also inconclusive. At this critical moment, Rong Yiren is faced with a life choice. Just when Rong Yiren was confused, he witnessed a scene that shocked him deeply.
After the People's Liberation Army was stationed in Shanghai, the soldiers did not have their own residences, but they preferred to sleep on the streets rather than disturb the people, not occupy a single house of the people, and not rob the people of a stitch and thread.
This is the first time Rong Yiren has seen an organized and disciplined army that is so considerate of the people. Having experienced wars of aggression and civil wars, Rong Yiren has never seen such an army, who put the interests of the people first and consider the needs of the masses.
Such an army was very different from what he had seen before. Rong Yiren is convinced that with such a first-class army in China, the people will surely live a peaceful and stable life.
From that moment on, Rong Yiren decided to follow the Communist Party. After he consulted with his father, Rong Desheng also agreed to his approach, "I have never done evil in my life, and I have fled abroad." ”
He decided to stay in China and contribute to the construction of the country.
Insisting on not moving factories, transferring funds, or leaving China, Rong Yiren took his family members who stayed in Hong Kong to Shanghai and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the construction of the motherland. He followed the leadership of the Communist Party of China, shared weal and woe with the Communist Party of China, and demonstrated unwavering loyalty to the Party.
Under this goal, the Rong family's factory resumed work and production, and Rong Yiren did not hesitate to donate seven planes and a large amount of materials to support the front line when the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea broke out. In daily life, he actively propagated the best ideas and supported the party and the country with practical actions.
**I have heard about what he did, and at the meeting to meet with some CPPCC members, Rong Yiren was honored to be invited to sit at the same table with the premier. This is the first time he has met Prime Minister, and they are working side by side for the construction of the motherland.
Rong Yiren, known as the "Young Zhuang faction", took the initiative in national construction, purchased 6.5 million Shengli discounted public bonds, and contributed his own strength to the country's economic development.
In the transformation of industry and commerce, he was even more courageous, took the initiative to hand over the operating accounts of Rong's enterprise to the first company, and proposed the implementation of public-private partnership, which set an example for socialist transformation.
His loyalty and law-abiding spirit have been affirmed and appreciated by the chairman, and he has been approved as a "fully law-abiding household".
In 1957, Rong Yiren made an exciting decision to donate his family business to the country free of charge to support the construction of the country and contribute to the future development of New China.
Rong Yiren used his own actions to truly link the fate of the family business with the fate of the country, and this spirit is called "red capitalist". His move caused a strong response among local entrepreneurs, and Vice Premier ** recommended him to be the vice mayor of Shanghai to continue to promote the country's economic development and construction.
Rong Yiren lived up to the expectations and was successfully elected, and in 1959 accepted an invitation to work in Beijing as vice minister of the textile department. However, when he arrived in Beijing, he found that his diet and other aspects were different from Shanghai, which made him not quite accustomed to it.
Despite this, Rong Yiren still upholds his beliefs and makes his own contributions to the construction and development of the country.
Rong Yiren, a red capitalist, firmly believes that "when you come to Beijing, you will work in Beijing and slowly adapt to the life in Beijing", he has deepened international economic cooperation in the establishment of China International Trust and Investment Corporation, made great contributions to China's economic development, and also accumulated rich international experience for reform and opening up.
Thanks to his efforts, CITC soon became one of the world's top 500 companies. In July 1985, Rong Yiren honorably joined the Communist Party of China, and in 1993, Rong Yiren was elected as the vice president of the People's Republic of China, from a red capitalist to a red people's representative, more effectively expressing the voice of the masses.
Rong Yiren, a patriotic entrepreneur who had a son worth tens of billions, was deeply saddened by the people of the whole country when he passed away. After his death, his wife Yang Jianqing chose to settle in Hong Kong in order to avoid touching the scene.
Nine years later, Yang Jianqing passed away, leaving a will hoping to be buried with Rong Yiren. Rong Yiren loves the motherland and the people and devotes himself to the construction of the cause of national socialism. His word "Ren" has never forgotten, he is for the country and the people, and at the same time educates his children to be patriotic, respect women, and treat each other without distinction.
When it comes to education, he is never ambiguous.
The three daughters of the Rong family have their own life trajectories, among which the eldest daughter Rong Zhihe has experienced the war era, and her father's teachings have made her know how to be self-reliant since she was a child, and finally became the chairman of Shanghai Shanghai-Hong Kong Kindergarten, and now lives in Shanghai.
The second daughter, Rong Zhiping, takes the eldest sister as an example, is down-to-earth, low-key, rarely appears in front of the public, and now lives in Shanghai, and occasionally goes to her sister's house as a guest.
Although the third daughter had a bad fate and had encephalitis when she was a child, she was still well-behaved and smart, and hoped to be able to ** as soon as possible.
Due to the lack of time** at that time, Rong Yiren eventually suffered from dementia, and his life became unable to take care of himself, and he needed someone to take care of him all the time. A few years later, he was diagnosed with lung cancer and unfortunately passed away.
The loss of his daughter made the whole family deeply painful, which also made Rong Yiren love his children even more. After the birth of his fourth daughter Rong Zhiwan, he loved her even more, hoping to make up for the debt to his children.
When Rong Zhiwan grew up, she married Ma Youheng, a domestic entrepreneur, and settled in Macau, where she lived a happy life. As for Rong Yiren's only son, Rong Zhijian, as the only boy in the family, he carries Rong Yiren's high hopes and hopes that he will be able to make a difference in the future.
Although Rong Zhijian was born in such a family, he is not the kind of unruly son, he showed excellent grades since he was a child, and was finally admitted to Tianjin University majoring in electric power engineering.
Not only is he a sports enthusiast who loves sports, horse racing and sports cars, but he has even won several awards in national competitions. After graduating, he worked as an intern at the Changbaishan Hydropower Station and then at a factory in Liangshan, Sichuan, where he was deeply educated.
In 1978, he returned to Hong Kong to start a new life and found his true love, with whom he had three children. After becoming a father, his character became more mature and stable, and he began to settle down, not only an excellent father, but also a qualified heir to the Rong family.
At work, Rong Yiren did not provide him with any convenience, he completely relied on his own efforts and talents, and embarked on the road of entrepreneurship step by step.
With his intellect and business acumen, he embarked on a series of acquisitions as soon as he joined CITIC Hong Kong. In 1987, he founded CITIC Pacific and became the richest man in mainland China.
The company grew rapidly and became a well-known large group in Hong Kong. Since then, he has continued to expand the company's business, continuing to invest in the power, telecommunications and ** sectors.
However, investing is always risky, and in 2009, he failed to succeed due to the large proportion of investments.
The legend of the Rong family began with Rong Xitai, and Rong Yiren pushed it to the top. Rong Yiren's wise decision has enabled the Rong family to maintain a solid position and continue to develop with the development of the country.
The inheritance of the Rong family relies on the unchanged spirit and inheritance of several generations, and the original intention has not changed after difficulties, which is the most valuable wealth of Rong Yiren. His life is full of brilliance, and he is a well-deserved light of the Rong family.
