Wen/Bai Keding

On April 3, 27, Gong Ruxin, the 7-year-old woman who is the richest woman in Asia and the chairman of the board of directors of Hong Kong Chinachem Group, died of illness, which triggered a major earthquake in Hong Kong media. Why can an ordinary businessman have such a great influence?

It's all because her life is quite legendary, and strange things that make people stunned constantly appear on her.

One of the richest women in Asia, with assets of 4 billion yuan under her name, five times that of the Queen of England, only earns money without spending money, and lives more cheaply than ordinary people; A business elite woman, who is over 6 years old, is known as a "witch" by the Hong Kong media because her behaviors are puzzling.

Next, let's walk into the legendary life of Gong Ruxin, the "witch's richest man".

The combination of Gong Ruxin and her husband Wang Dehui is the real version of Cinderella becoming a princess.

In 1937, Gong Ruxin was born in Shanghai. Her father was an employee of a paint company, while Wang Dehui, who was three years older than her, had a well-established family. Because of business contacts, the two families gradually became familiar with each other, and Gong Ruxin and Wang Dehui became childhood playmates.

Until Wang Dehui was 11 years old, his father, Wang Tingxin, took his family to Hong Kong to do business. When they were young, they had to separate. When they grew up, they began to write to each other.

With Wang Dehui's encouragement, teenage Gong Ruxin went to Hong Kong to study alone.

It's true that how bold a person is, how productive he is. A teenage girl went to a strange city alone for a word from a man she hadn't seen for more than ten years. If she hadn't put all her eggs in one basket, she would never have had such a brilliant life later, so I could see at that time that this little girl had extraordinary courage.

After graduation, Gong Ruxin went to work in a company in Wang Dehui. She said that she was going to work, but actually she didn't do anything. She just came for a walk every day and sometimes brought her pet dog. She didn't regard this place as a company at all, and Wang Dehui gave her all the food and clothing.

At that time, the Wangs already knew about Gong Ruxin's existence, and they just thought that their son was playing and didn't take it seriously, but they didn't expect Wang Dehui to take it seriously and marry Gong Ruxin.

Of course, the Wangs didn't agree. At that time, their family was already a famous family in Hong Kong, and Gong Ruxin's father had passed away, which could not bring any help to the Wangs' business at all. Moreover, Gong Ruxin, a little girl with a wild temper, was too timid to dare to come to Hong Kong alone to join a man in her teens, so Wang Jiajian never agreed to her coming in.

But Wang Dehui is not a "second-generation ancestor" who has no opinion. He has already demonstrated his extraordinary business acumen, and he has run a company independently and done a good job, which greatly surpasses the family business.

So in 1955, Wang Dehui married Gong Ruxin, who was only 18 years old, regardless of her family's opposition.

After marriage, Gong Ruxin knew the gap between herself and Wang Dehui, so she put away her fun, began to learn how to manage the company affairs, and made up her short-board English, which laid the foundation for her to become a rich man in the future.

in 196, Wang Dehui saw the future development of Hong Kong real estate, transformed a chemical company into a real estate company, and established Chinachem Group.

The first few years were not smooth. There was no good land in hand, so we had to do some projects left by others. At that time, Wang Dehui's stingy personality was fully displayed.

Engineers need pencils of different thicknesses. Wang Dehui doesn't even want to spend the money for an extra pencil, so he lets them use one. When the pencil needs to be thick, he grinds off the tip, and when the pencil needs to be thin, he cuts it again.

This stingy style hasn't changed since they made a fortune. On August 15th, other companies distributed a box of moon cakes to their employees. The couple cut a moon cake into four pieces and the employees shared it.

It did save them a lot of money, but it also became the most fundamental reason why Wang Dehui lost his life.

In 1967, Hong Kong's housing prices plummeted, which greatly affected the economy, and all walks of life were miserable. However, the shrewd Gong Ruxin predicted the economic situation in advance and tried his best to persuade Wang Dehui to buy a lot of land at a low price.

A few years later, Hong Kong's economic development entered a fast lane. They made a lot of money by developing real estate with the land they bought at a low price. But at that time, they insisted on not going public, so the outside world didn't know their financial situation.

After Gong Ruxin's death, the media once counted that apart from fixed assets, she * * * had 2 buildings for rent, and there were 6,7 parking spaces, with a total of 2,547, square feet of office space for rent and 1,856, square feet of shopping malls for rent, with an annual rental income of at least two or three billion.

However, such rich couples are always very stingy, and they are not willing to hire bodyguards. You should know that in Hong Kong in the 198s, the public security was quite poor, and kidnappings were frequent, and the rich stars were their prey.

In 1983, Gong Ruxin and Wang Dehui drove the same car to work. Unexpectedly, on a lonely road, they were suddenly blocked by two cars from the front and back. Then several masked gangsters jumped out of the car, smashed the window and took Wang Dehui away. They put black sunglasses on Gong Ruxin and told her to take $11 million to redeem her.

Wang Ruxin, who was in shock, calmed down without informing anyone or calling the police, and immediately remitted $11 million to them as the kidnappers said.

Four days later, Wang Dehui really came back safely, but after coming back, Wang Dehui not only didn't appreciate Gong Ruxin, but jumped up and down with $11 million in anger because of his distress.

However, after the kidnapping, Wang Dehui was scared enough, and finally he was willing to hire some bodyguards and lived a peaceful life for several years.

But the concept of being stingy has long been ingrained. Watching these bodyguards every day is like drinking your own blood. Wang Dehui finally couldn't hold on, and fired one after another. Five years later, there were none left, and Wang Dehui finally relaxed.

With this relaxation, something serious happened again. In 199, Wang Dehui was kidnapped again. This time, the kidnapper leader was very intelligent. It can be seen that he had made careful arrangements and the design was flawless.

He gathered a lot of people, each of whom was in charge of a link. No one knew the whole process of the kidnapping, which led to the police finally catching some kidnappers, but they still didn't understand the real story.

This time, the kidnapper lion opened his mouth and demanded 1 billion dollars at a time, which set a new record for asking for ransom in the history of Hong Kong, and he can also pay 3 million yuan in installments, and then wait for the next news.

Gong Ruxin obediently paid the money again, but what she didn't expect was that the kidnappers, afraid of leaving evidence, had pushed them into the sea with their cars and people because they couldn't drive a Mercedes-Benz in Wang Dehui.

A generation of rich people just disappeared into the world, leaving behind tens of billions of assets and huge family businesses, which also made his family fall apart after his disappearance and became crazy for a time.

After learning that Wang Dehui had been pushed into the sea with people and cars, Gong Ruxin was always unwilling to accept it and searched hard for three years.

Suddenly, one day, Gong Ruxin, who has always shown herself as a business elite, suddenly changed her style. In her fifties, she wore two sheephorn braids, a festive red sweater, a miniskirt and other exotic girls' dresses, coupled with enchanting makeup. The whole person looked particularly strange, and the Hong Kong media once thought that she was not in good spirits after being stimulated.

Gong Ruxin, who could not be found everywhere, was almost devastated, so she placed her hopes on Feng Shui master, who cheated her by 2 billion yuan. Feng Shui master told her that if she could show people the image when she was in love with Wang Dehui, she might be able to call him back and let him come back.

Gong Ruxin, who has entered a desperate situation, has completely changed her appearance, regardless of outsiders' eyes, even on the cover of a magazine.

However, although her image is a little "crazy", her dedication to work has not changed. She holds meetings and negotiates with her partners as usual, and she is still in full swing and capable.

Superman's economic mind and investment ability, as well as her unique vision in business, led by her, Chinachem Group has gradually expanded from pure real estate to entertainment, commerce, investment and other fields, and its valuation has increased eightfold.

In July, 1997, the world's authoritative financial magazine Forbes listed the super rich, and Gong Ruxin was among them with a personal asset of 7 billion dollars.

She invested 3 million yuan in real estate management in Britain, and earned more than one billion yuan in just two or three years. Before the central government approved the "individual tour", she boldly transformed the hotel industry and decisively used some valuable land to build five-star hotels. The super five-star hotel built in Repulse Bay became another new symbol of Hong Kong.

Not only has she invested heavily in biotechnology, shipping and finance in Europe, America and Asia, but she has also invested by domestic enterprises. There are dozens of projects in the west alone, covering agriculture, tourism, real estate, biochemistry and gold mining.

After Wang Dehui disappeared, because Gong Ruxin inherited her property, all the money was in her hand. Her father-in-law Wang Tingxin, who has been treating her badly since marriage, can only get some living expenses every month, depending on her face. Naturally, she is unwilling.

In 1999, nine years after Wang Dehui's disappearance, Wang Tingxin declared his legal death and demanded the division of Wang Dehui's estate. He also produced a will written by Wang Dehui in 1968, which said that he would leave all his estate to his father.

Gong Ruxin was taken aback. She also took out a will, which said that after death, all the inheritance would be taken care of by her wife.

Wang Tingxin and Gong Ruxin fought for the inheritance for eight years, which is the longest civil lawsuit in history. At that time, Gong Ruxin also asked a Feng Shui master to make fortune, at the expense of his life.

finally, in 25, Gong Ruxin won the lawsuit as she wished and inherited all her husband's inheritance (of course, this is not the function of geomantic omen, so don't be superstitious), but unfortunately, she died suddenly two years later.

It turns out that Gong Ruxin has always been in poor health. Many people say that in order to save money, she has been reluctant to see a doctor until cancer is diagnosed.

however, Xiao Bai thinks that maybe it is not to save money, but to see through the secular world and not want to be cured. Otherwise, with her financial resources, she can spend money to prolong her life as much as possible, just like a gambling king, but she didn't do so, and left almost silently without struggle.

Maybe after Wang Dehui disappeared, her life was meaningless. She took back her husband's things with one breath, and was regarded as a "witch" of mental cholera for the rest of her life. She never waited until her husband came back, and she was very tired.

At that time, some people suspected that she planned the kidnapping case, because later she showed amazing business talent, and maybe she had planned for a long time to seize power.

But I think that's just her sustenance. Because I don't want her and her husband's hard work to be in vain, she has demonstrated her superhuman ability and talent in generate. She is just a woman without children. What does she need so much money for? It's just to divert my thoughts from my husband and make myself less painful.

In those days, when she came to Hong Kong alone for him, he didn't live up to his breaking up with his parents and marrying her. He was kidnapped and disappeared, and she was crazy for him for half her life. I'm afraid this kind of love will never happen again.

The most embarrassing thing is that Gong Ruxin fought a lawsuit with her father-in-law for her husband's inheritance for eight years when she was alive. After her death, the same situation happened again.

Chen Zhencong, her feng shui master, revealed that she and Gong Ruxin had proper relationship. He took out a will to inherit all the property of Gong Ruxin, and in order to increase credibility, he shamelessly described the secret of their boudoir.

However, a liar is a liar. The court finally ruled that his will was forged and sentenced him to 12 years.

In the end, Gong Renxin, Gong Ruxin's younger brother, took over Chinachem Group and Chinachem Charity Fund. However, in 212, there was a bloody story: Zhang Yankun, Gong Ruxin's adopted son, once bombarded the Gong family, saying that they had made a mess of the charity fund, and that the Gong family had failed to perform their duties to take care of the Wangs.

It's really an embarrassing life. Wang Dehui and Gong Ruxin only want to be together when they are alive, but they are separated from each other because they are too rich. Gong Ruxin has a huge fortune all his life, but he has never really enjoyed it. Instead, he is constantly being calculated by people around him.

The huge wealth earned at the risk of life can't be taken away, and I don't know who will collect it later. What's the use of making so much money? If it weren't for this wealth, Wang Dehui wouldn't have been tied up and disappeared twice, and Gong Ruxin wouldn't have been crazy for half his life. What a pity!
