Have you ever wondered why Fok Yingdong donated 30,000 acres of land in Nansha instead of leaving it to future generations?
Before, everyone was paying attention to Huo Qigang and Guo Jingjing's donation of 70 million to Gansu **. Huo Qigang also responded to this, he said that the Fok Yingdong family had donated to Gansu through the Macau Fok Yingdong ** Association, but he did not disclose the specific amount, but he used the words "do his best".
In fact, the donation of 70 million is not reliable, the first thing is sent by some marketing accounts, and it is not a regular message. In addition, the Huo family's donations are usually not in their personal names, but in the Macau Fok Ying Tung ** Association, and the ** Association's donations are not equivalent to the personal donations of Huo Qigang and Guo Jingjing. Another point, everyone may have any misunderstanding about 70 million, although Huo Qigang is Huo Yingdong's grandson, but now 70 million is not a small amount for the Huo family.
After laying so much groundwork, the key is to talk about the Macau Fok Ying Tung ** meeting. Many people have heard that Fok Yingdong has 30,000 acres of land in Nansha, and in 2012, the valuation of Hong Kong** was as high as 30 billion, and now it is at least more than 100 billion yuan.
But such a large fortune was donated by Huo Yingdong many years ago. So why didn't Fok Yingdong leave the land to future generations?
In 1978, when Fok Yingdong returned to Guangzhou for an investigation, he took a boat out of the Pearl River and discovered the place Nansha at the mouth of the sea. When he saw the map, he found that the place was only a few dozen nautical miles from Hong Kong. Later, he discovered that Nansha is the geometric center of the entire Pearl River Delta.
So he thinks there must be a lot of future development here. Since the 80s, he has invested a lot of money in the Pearl River Delta to promote the development of Nansha. At that time, Nansha was full of tidal flats, and there was basically no decent piece of land.
Fok Yingdong also spent his own money to level the land. He has smashed more than 8 billion here. But before 2003, in addition to the passenger terminal** tens of millions. Other projects didn't make much money.
In the early 90s, Fok Yingdong also established the Nansha Development Company, and through this company, he bought a total of 30,000 acres of land in Nansha Bay. Since then, Fok Yingdong has continued to develop around these plots.
After years of hard work, Nansha has gradually developed, and the country has also begun to attach importance to the development of Nansha, and proposed to build Nansha into a second Hong Kong. Later, Xu Jiayin, Wang Jianlin and other tycoons also invested heavily in Nansha one after another.
After 2010, Nansha real estate is also developing rapidly. The value of the Huo family's land in Nansha is also soaring. By 2012, Hong Kong** estimated that the market value of these plots of land was at least more than 30 billion. Today, the market value of these plots may exceed 100 billion.
But such a large fortune was actually donated by Huo Yingdong as early as 1997. At that time, Huo Yingdong signed an agreement, and then donated all the shares of Nansha Development Company to Huo Yingdong's ** Association.
So why did Fok Yingdong do this? In the past few years, the Huo Yingdong family has been fighting for family property, and everyone found out that the Huo Yingdong family no longer has much assets. At present, the Huo family's undivided assets are only more than 2 billion, because most of the valuable assets were donated by Huo Yingdong during his lifetime, in addition to the land in Nansha, there are also shares of Macau Entertainment Company, which were donated by Huo Yingdong.
Huo Yingdong once introduced this issue in his biography, he does not want future generations to remain rich and prosperous for a long time, he just needs them to be a special talent and can have their own development.
It can be said that Huo Yingdong is really wise, and many rich people are entangled in whether their families can be rich for a long time, and they all hope to be rich from generation to generation. But Fok Yingdong didn't have this idea. Because many rich people have thought of a lot of ways, but in the end, they can't keep their families rich. In fact, not to mention a wealthy family, even those dynasties are only two or three hundred years at the longest.
Therefore, the most important thing for a person in the world is to realize his own value, not to think about the problems of future generations. Nowadays, many parents want to pave the way for their children, but the end result is often that the smoother the paving, the worse the development of their children in the end. Because people have to go through trials before they can grow.
