Life does not bring it, death does not bring it.
This phrase is about property. No matter how much money a person has, when he rushes to Huangquan, he will be empty-handed.
In 2007, Hong Kong billionaire Nina Gong, who was once the "richest woman in Asia", died of cancer, leaving behind a huge fortune of 40 billion Hong Kong dollars.
However, with so much money, Nina Gong could neither take it away in person, nor could she find anyone to inherit it, because although she was married, she had no children in her life.
Gong Nina, who has no children and no daughters, can only reluctantly transfer all her 40 billion assets to the ** meeting controlled by the family business Chinachem Group.
Gong Nina is not a rich second generation, and all the 40 billion property she left behind was saved by starting a business with her husband Wang Dehui.
However, Wang Dehui was kidnapped and disappeared as early as 1990, so after Gong Nina died in 2007, there was no "first heir".
Gong Nina was born in an ordinary family, and her early entrepreneurial experience can be described as bitter, and after the disappearance of her husband Wang Dehui, she was forced to provoke the pillars of Chinachem Group.
Because of this, after Nina Gong died of illness at the age of 70 in 2007, the world was embarrassed, because such an outstanding strong woman in the business world ended up with such a tragic ending.
Nina Gong was born in Shanghai on September 29, 1937, and she is the eldest daughter in the family.
Gong Nina's parents had a total of four children, in addition to her, there are the second sister Gong Center, the younger brother Gong Renxin and the third sister Gong Yinxin.
In the 40s, Nina Gong's father met a Wenzhou businessman named Wang Tingxin, who started a business in Shanghai, and the two fell in love and soon became brothers.
This person named Wang Tingxin later became Gong Nina's father-in-law, and his son Wang Dehui was Gong Nina's future husband.
's father is a sworn brother, Gong Nina and Wang Dehui have naturally known each other for a long time, in fact, the relationship between the two can be described as "childhood sweethearts".
Born in 1934, Wang Dehui is only 3 years older than Nina Gong, and since his father got married, they often play together, and when they become adults, they fall in love freely with the support of their parents, and finally tie the knot.
It can be said that even though there are many regrets in Gong Nina's life, the marriage can be described as satisfying.
She and Wang Dehui have been together for a lifetime, even if they are developed in the later period, neither party has changed their minds, let alone any scandals.
This can be described as a clear stream in the circle of wealthy families who are "known for chaos".
Nina Gong spent her childhood in Shanghai, although she was a woman, her family let her go to school, and she was competitive enough to be admitted to Shanghai Normal University on her own.
It's a pity that not long after entering the university, Gong Ruxin had a serious illness and was forced to drop out.
At that time, Wang Dehui, a childhood sweetheart, was going to Hong Kong to make a living, and Gong Nina who was still at home was idle and had nothing to do, so he followed him to Hong Kong.
The two people, who were still very young at the time, would never have imagined that many years later, in this beautiful coastal city, they would jointly start a group company and save a net worth of 40 billion yuan, becoming the world's super-rich.
When she first arrived in Hong Kong, Nina Gong, who was not yet 18 years old, could not find a job, so she studied at Maryknoll High School for a year before landing a job as an accountant after graduation.
But at that time in Hong Kong, the treatment of workers was very low, and they were often abused by their bosses, although this job allowed Nina Gong to support herself, but it also made her suffer great grievances and pain.
Once, Gong Nina accidentally misspelled an English word, and the boss scolded her after knowing it, and didn't treat her as a human being at all.
When she returned home, Nina Gong became more and more angry the more she thought about it, and handed over her resignation letter to her boss the next day.
Gong Nina resigned with the support of Wang Dehui, and also gave him the idea of starting a business: as long as he becomes the boss, he doesn't have to be angry with others.
When it comes to entrepreneurship, Wang Dehui actually has more capital than ordinary people, because his father Wang Tingxin is a boss and has a company under his name, which is mainly engaged in importing industrial raw materials and also concurrently operating part of the western medicine business.
But Wang Dehui was reluctant to ask his father for money, he wanted to start a business entirely on his own, which is why he went south to Hong Kong instead of starting a business in Shanghai, where he could rely on his father's connections.
In 1955, 21-year-old Wang Dehui pulled 18-year-old Gong Nina to plan the future togetherThe more the two talked, the more excited they became, as if they saw themselves after the success of their business.
In the same year, Nina Gong and Wang Dehui held a wedding in Hong Kong and officially became husband and wife.
When she was young, Nina Gong was very beautiful, a bit like Ai Fukuhara.
After getting married, she put almost all her thoughts on her husband, and Wang Dehui did not live up to his wife's expectations and has been working hard to find entrepreneurial opportunities.
Finally in 1960, Wang Dehui and his wife Nina Gong set up their own portal to create "Chinachem Real Estate"., which is the predecessor of Chinachem Group, which has a market value of 100 billion yuan.
The name "Chinachem" is actually ** in Wang Tingxin's company, but although Wang Dehui and he are father and son, they are their own companies, even if the company name is the same, they have nothing to do with each other, not the son inherits the father's business, but the real "self-reliance".
After the establishment of the company, Nina Gong became Wang Dehui's secretary, and since Chinachem Real Estate has many foreign businesses, in order to help her husband run the company better, Nina Gong also went to study English.
Nina Gong, who was admitted to university, has a strong learning abilityAfter a few months of hard work, she became fluent in English, thus providing great convenience for Wang Dehui to negotiate business.
Back then, when Nina Gong was reprimanded by her boss for misspelling an English word, she chose to quit her job instead of improving her English.
Now, because of her husband's entrepreneurial needs, she takes the initiative to study EnglishIt can be seen that she is a decisive person, and it is this kind of character that allows her to gallop in the shopping mall, and then become a "strong woman" in the limelight.
In the early days of their business, Wang Dehui and Nina Gong often encountered financial problems, which made the couple develop the habit of frugality.
And this kind of frugality, they have maintained until the success of the business, and this caused a tragedy, but also made Nina Gong's image in the hearts of employees greatly reduced.
Wang Dehui's death is related to excessive frugality.
As early as the early 70s, Wong Tak Fai was keenly aware of the potential of Hong Kong's hotel and real estate industries, so he voluntarily gave up some of his old business and began to buy hotels and properties on a large scale.
In the 80s, Wang Dehui turned his attention to the construction of commercial housing, purchased land to build houses, and then sold them to ordinary citizens.
This was a big feat at the beginning, as the first person to eat crabsWang Dehui and Gong Nina also made a lot of money because of this, and soon accumulated a net worth of tens of billions.
During that time, Chinachem Group's advertisements were all over Hong Kong, and every Hong Kong person who wanted to buy a house knew the name of this company.
But strangely,Wang Dehui and Gong Nina are the behind-the-scenes bosses, but they are extremely low-key, and few people have even heard of them.
This is related to the couple's "frugality", because being high-profile means spending more.
However, with the continuous increase in value, it is impossible for Gong Nina and Wang Dehui to be high-profile.
In 1983, Wang Dehui drove his wife Gong Nina to work at Chinachem Group, which was under his name, and suddenly encountered kidnappers halfway through.
Later, according to the demands of the bandits, Gong Nina remitted 11 million US dollars, and Wang Dehui was released.
After this incident was encountered, the Hong Kong ** community was in an uproar, and people only knewIt turned out that the boss of Chinachem was so rich that he could casually come up with a huge sum of $11 million.
But in addition to the amazement, there were also people who ridiculed the couple, laughing at them for being too frugal, if they hired a bodyguard, the bandits would not have succeeded so easily.
As various news continued to break out, Gong Nina was also picked up about her past slamming the door.
One of the most outrageous is a Mid-Autumn Festival, Gong Nina distributed mooncakes to employees as a benefit, but she did not buy a box for everyone, nor did she have a piece of mooncakes for each person, but divided a piece of mooncake into 16 parts, resulting in each employee can only get a small bite.
At that time, many employees were so angry that they didn't want mooncakes, but Gong Nina didn't care, but packed all the mooncakes that those employees didn't want home, and then ate them with her husband Wang Dehui.
At that time, Gong Nina had already had a net worth of billions, but she was still so critical of such a trivial matter as Mid-Autumn Festival moon cakes, which shows how frugal she was.
But in terms of frugality, her husband Wang Dehui was more excessive than her, which led to tragedy.
Due to the danger of the kidnapping in 1983, Wang Dehui only hired bodyguards for two years afterwards, and then dismissed him because he was too expensive.
As a result, in 1990, he was kidnapped again, and this time, he did not have the good luck of the last time.
After receiving part of the ransom, the bandits pushed Wang Dehui, who was tied up with all kinds of flowers, into the sea, and needless to say, he could not live.
Wang Dehui, who was born in 1934 and has a net worth of 10 billion, ended his short life of 56 years.
Since Wang Dehui's body was never found, the court could not immediately declare him dead, so until 1999, he remained missing and his estate was never distributed.
But Chinachem Group needs someone to carry the banner, and Nina Gong, who started a business with her husband, is the most suitable candidate.
When she first took over the company, the employees were not convinced, thinking that Nina Gong was a weak woman, how could she lead the group to develop and grow.
But I didn't expect thatIn the hands of Nina Gong, Chinachem Group has developed better than before, exceeding the market value of 100 billion yuan in just a few years, and Nina Gong's personal worth has also exceeded 30 billion Hong Kong dollars, and thus became the "richest woman in Asia".
But with so much money, Nina Gong couldn't find anyone to inherit, because although she has been married to her husband for decades, she has never been able to give birth to children.
In the early years, Gong Nina wanted to have children, but she and her husband were busy starting a business and had no time to think about having children.
After the success of the business and the accumulation of tens of billions of net worth, Gong Nina is too old to give birth if she wants to.
What's worse is that with the disappearance of Wang Dehui in 1990, 53-year-old Gong Nina completely lost the opportunity to have children.
At this time, the only thing she can do is to stabilize the rudder of the big ship of Chinachem and keep the industry that her husband and herself have worked so hard to create.
Maybe she wanted to open up, but Gong Nina began to let go of herself in her later years, and at her age, she often dressed up as a "little girl" and wore double ponytails.
Because of her weird makeup, Nina Gong got the title of "Britney".
Although this nickname looks very good, it is actually full of irony, but Gong Nina doesn't care, and still appears in front of the world with "young makeup" in her own way.
Gong Nina 's behavior has been interpreted by some psychologists as missing her deceased husband, considering that she and Wang Dehui have loved each other all their lives, this interpretation may not be unreasonable.
Due to her lack of children and the sudden disappearance of her husband, Gong Nina also became strange in her later years, and she began to distrust everyone, even her younger siblings.
Only a feng shui master named Chen Zhencong was able to get close to her private life, because Chen Zhencong deliberately told her that Wang Dehui was not dead, and as long as he did what he said, he could let Wang Dehui come back.
Gong Ruxin, who was thoughtful, believed Chen Zhencong's words, in order to get her husband back, she who has always been frugal did not hesitate to spend billions of Hong Kong dollars to do things, but she got nothing.
In 2002, 65-year-old Nina Gong no longer had illusions about finding her husband, and she made a will without children and daughters, announcing that after her death, all the 40 billion Hong Kong dollars in her name would be transferred to Chinachem ** Club.
In 2006, Nina Gong suffered from cancer, and although she had tens of billions of assets, she was still not immune.
On April 3, 2007, 70-year-old Nina Gong died in the hospital.
Seventy years of life is rare, but for a rich man like Gong Nina , only 70 years old is too short.
And having no children and no daughters, leaving 40 billion assets but no one to inherit them, is also a sadness.
Gong Nina 's life could have been more complete, but it ended in regrets. Maybe life should be like this, regrets are real, and true fulfillment only exists in fantasy.
