In 1945, 22-year-old He Wanqi left Vietnam for seven years and returned to Hong Kong.

Soon after, she appeared in front of members of the Ho family living in Hong Kong. She attended the wedding anniversary party of He Dong, the head of the Ho family, and his wife.

As soon as she appeared, He Wanqi surprised everyone. She is of four countries' ancestry, and her face is amazing and very beautiful.

At the party, He Wanqi's 19-year-old cousin, Stanley Ho, was fascinated by her.

At that time, He Wanqi would never have thought that all kinds of grudges and enmities in her later life started from this meeting.

He Wanqi was born in 1923. Her father, He Shiguang, was the chairman of the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals and the comprador of Sassoon. His grandfather, He Fu, was the comprador of Yihe and Sassoon, and was once one of the top five Chinese businessmen. He Fu's brother, He Dong, was even better. He was the first richest man in Hong Kong.

It can be said that He family is a noble family in Hong Kong.

In such a big family, people are very prosperous. He Wanqi is He Shiguang's 1th child, who is called "Ten Girls". When she was a child, Ten Girls had the best relationship with her Jiu Ge. His Jiu Ge name was Stanley Ho.

He Wanqi and Stanley Ho lived a luxurious life when they were young, which made the outside world very envious.

however, this luxurious life ended in 1934.

This year, He Wanqi's father, He Shiguang, and his three brothers joined hands in stock trading. As a result, the stock trading failed and went bankrupt.

In order to avoid debts, He Shiguang took two older sons to Vietnam, and later took He Wanqi over, while Mr. Stanley Ho and his mother Xian Xingyun stayed in Hong Kong.

Stanley Ho, who was left in Hong Kong, was determined to change his fate. He studied hard and was admitted to the University of Hong Kong.

Unfortunately, when Stanley Ho was a junior, World War II broke out and Japan invaded Hong Kong. In order to make a living, in December, 1942, Mr. Stanley Ho went to Macau alone with 1 yuan dollars.

After arriving in Macau, he joined Lianchang Company as a secretary and also engaged in the business of grain, oil and cotton yarn.

Because of his outstanding performance, he was deeply recognized and valued by the leadership of Lianchang Company, and he was introduced to Li Wanhua in his work.

Li Wanhua's identity is not simple. Her family is a well-known local family in Macau. Her ancestors used to be high officials in Portugal, and her father is a famous lawyer in Macau and the only local notary.

as a good family, Li Wanhua has outstanding face value and is called "the first beauty in Macau Street".

For such a beautiful woman with an extraordinary family background, Mr. Stanley Ho launched a pursuit.

In 1942, Mr. Stanley Ho successfully got a beautiful woman and married Li Wanhua in Macau.

With the help of Li Wanhua family and personal efforts, Mr. Stanley Ho soon became a wealthy businessman in Macau.

While Stanley Ho accelerated his fate change through marriage in Macau, He Wanqi came into contact with gambling in Vietnam. She helped Peter Du, a descendant of Hong Kong Wing On Company, set up an entertainment venue in Sai Kung and applied for gambling cards, which made her know something about the casino business.

This understanding has deeply bound her and her brother Stanley Ho's life together, and an important reason for this firm binding is that He Wanqi and Stanley Ho have a story.

After returning to Hong Kong in 1945, He Wanqi had a story with her cousin Stanley Ho because she attended the wedding anniversary party of He Dong and his wife.

He Wanqi and Stanley Ho are together, and the Ho family are firmly opposed.

In order to break them up, the Ho family used vicious tactics.

Eric Zhang was sent to the United States to study, while He Wanqi was arranged to marry Mai Zhiwei of the Mai family.

What confuses the Ho family is that the Mai family is not as glamorous as it looks, because Mai Zhiwei's father's business failed, and the Mai family has long been an empty shell, and Mai Zhiwei is just a worker who gets 7 yuan's salary every month.

Faced with such a situation, He Wanqi was unable to break free at that time, so she had to live a hard life in Mai's family and gave birth to a son and a daughter to Mai Zhiwei.

This kind of life is not what He Wanqi wants. She is very unhappy, so when she is in a bad mood, she often goes to the racecourse for fun.

What He Wanqi didn't expect was that in 1953, when she had a rest at the racecourse again, she saw a familiar figure, and she met Stanley Ho who had returned to Hong Kong again.

This meeting rekindled their old love, and He Wanqi started an extramarital affair.

However, because He Wanqi couldn't get a divorce, in 1961, under the arrangement of his family, Stanley Ho married an English woman, Yu Anni. At that time, He Wanqi was pregnant. Soon after, He Wanqi gave birth to the son of He Hongzhang, Mai Shunming.

Also in this year, as the eldest grandson of He Dong, Eric Zhang inherited a huge legacy. Because he felt indebted to He Wanqi, Eric Zhang presented 2 million Hong Kong dollars to He Wanqi.

At the same time, Stanley Ho joined forces with Henry Fok, Ye Han, Teddy Yip and others to win the exclusive franchise of Macau Casino.

the wheel of fate will turn faster.

When winning the exclusive franchise of Macau casino, Stanley Ho, Henry Fok, Ye Han and others wanted to set up an Australian entertainment company, but the funds were insufficient.

Just when they were worried about money, He Wanqi appeared, bringing 2 million Hong Kong dollars.

He Wanqi became a shareholder of Aussie Entertainment Company under the pseudonym of "Huang Wanli".

Because she trusted her brother, she told Stanley Ho that Mai Shunming was the illegitimate child of her and Stanley Ho.

at that time, she thought that her brother would help her keep a secret, but she didn't expect it to be the beginning of a nightmare.

Only at present, the relationship between them is still very good, and He Wanqi is not involved in the specific affairs of the Australian entertainment company. Instead, she assists Stanley Ho's career.

In 1974, He Wanqi stopped assisting Stanley Ho's career, and she moved to the United States with Mai Zhiwei and her children.

A few years after arriving in the United States, He Wanqi realized her freedom, and she divorced Mai Zhiwei.

At that time, Mai Zhiwei was facing bankruptcy crisis because he helped a friend to get a loan from the bank. He Wanqi told him that he could avoid the bank's debt collection by faking a divorce.

Mai Zhiwei followed He Wanqi's advice, and as a result, the marriage was divorced, but He Wanqi was never willing to remarry.

However, this freedom hasn't been long, and He Wanqi lost her "freedom" in another form.

His brother Stanley Ho wants to "control" her.

Because he wants to develop the gambling business, but also let Ye Han out and make himself a real gambling king, Stanley Ho needs effective help. He thinks about it. Among his brothers and sisters, only He Wanqi has the most business talent. He needs He Wanqi to come back and help himself.

He called He Wanqi.

At first, He Wanqi wasn't very interested in going to Macau, but Mr. Stanley Ho used his magic weapon. He told He Wanqi on the phone not to think that he could forget the scandal with Stanley Ho in the United States.

Stanley Ho threatened and coerced his sister.

In order to protect the secret of illegitimate children, He Wanqi finally decided to go to Macau, and she joined the Australian Entertainment Company.

In the Australian entertainment company, He Wanqi showed her commercial talent, which was not inferior to that of Mr. Ho. She helped Mr. Ho drive away Ye Han, and learned from the experience and methods of the American gaming industry to open and activate the signboard of the casino through tourism, which made Mr. Ho earn a lot of money.

Because of her tough style, He Wanqi can be called the Iron Lady of the gambling industry. At that time, people in Macao's gambling industry bluntly said, "When ten girls make a sound, the whole casino will shake. The gambling king even issued an imperial decree saying that if there is anything, you can find ten girls. "

And because she is so beautiful, she is called "the first beauty in Macau".

However, even so, He Wanqi's share in the Australian entertainment company is getting less and less. Stanley Ho threatened her with the secret of her illegitimate child, and her share in the Australian entertainment company dropped from 2% to 7%.

He Wanqi could bear the original 7% stake, but the appearance of a woman completely broke the bottom line of He Wanqi.

In 1986, Mr. Stanley Ho attended a private dance held by his third brother, Mr. Stanley Ho, and his third sister-in-law, Ding Yuzhu. They arranged Liang Anqi, a dance teacher, as Mr. Ho's partner.

Because of Liang Anqi's superb dancing skills, Mr. Ho was deeply impressed by her.

Later, Stanley Ho attended the dance and invited the dance teacher who was 39 years younger than himself as his partner.

This dance was much more common, and Mr. Stanley Ho was moved to take Liang Anqi into the harem.

In September, 1989, Mr. Stanley Ho bought an independent villa at No.26 Shoushan Village Road in the name of Liang Anqi, and they began to live together, which also meant that Mr. Stanley Ho announced to the outside world that Liang Anqi was his "fourth aunt".

Unlike many young women who are married to rich families and live an easy life, Liang Anqi is not interested in being a canary. She wants to get involved in Mr. Ho's business and enter the business world.

After joining Stanley Ho's company, Liang Anqi set foot in the field that He Wanqi was in charge of, and also took away the patent that He Wanqi opened in Portugal.

Facing Liang Anqi's Si Mazhao heart, He Wanqi found the theory of Stanley Ho, who put her off by saying that the company needed young people and fresh blood.

So, He Wanqi said that since the company needs young people and fresh blood, she hopes that her son Mai Shunming can join the board of directors of Australian Entertainment and take over his shares in Australian Entertainment.

For He Wanqi's proposal, Mr. Stanley Ho didn't adopt it. He didn't like Mai Shunming, a nephew. He borrowed 15 million yuan from him in the name of He Wanqi.

Although Mr. Stanley Ho didn't adopt He Wanqi's proposal, he made a new proposal, saying that he hoped she could resell her shares to Liang Anqi.

He Wanqi also chose to refuse.

At this time, He Wanqi also knows very well that she must do something, otherwise all her rights and interests will be lost soon.

In 22, He Wanqi announced the true identity of Mai Shunming for his own rights and interests, for his son Mai Shunming to enter the board of directors of Australian Entertainment, and for himself to be no longer threatened and controlled by Stanley Ho.

At this time, it has been 4 years since she was threatened and controlled by Stanley Ho.

He Wanqi not only exposed the scandal herself, but also took Mr. Ho to court. She accused Stanley Ho of threatening a "family scandal" for 4 years, forcing him to give up his equity, thus defrauding hundreds of millions of dollars in assets. She also accused Mr. Ho of forging documents, which caused his own interests to be damaged, and demanded a thorough investigation of the company's account books. She also claimed that the Australian entertainment company still owed her dividends in the past five years, about HK$ 3 billion, and she believed that Mr. Ho's business empire today depended on the investment of 2 million that she had given.

In the face of his sister's larger foe attack, Mr. Stanley Ho's "counterattack" was not soft at all. He bluntly slandered him by He Wanqi.

After his operation, in 22, He Wanqi was removed from all management positions in the Australian entertainment company. In 25, He Wanqi was removed from the shareholders' meeting of Australian Entertainment Company.

In 28, He Wanqi prevented Stanley Ho's SJM from going public. On the day of SJM's listing, in an interview with the media, Stanley Ho bluntly said: "SJM's listing is real gold and not afraid of stove fire. I must peel off the teeth of ten girls. Being listed today proves that evil is invincible. As for those troublemakers, let them stir it!"

At this time, Stanley Ho and He Wanqi had long been estranged from each other, and they didn't reconcile until He Wanqi died.

When the feud between He Wanqi and Stanley Ho came to an end in 28, He Wanqi's troubles did not end.

In 29, why did Mai Shunming, who had changed her name to Dong Shunming, divorce his wife Chen Fusheng? For Chen Fusheng, he was very appreciative of this daughter-in-law, and he was very dissatisfied with the state that He Shunming couldn't help the wall. Therefore, when He Dongshun Ming wanted to divorce Chen Fusheng, he cursed him for abandoning his wife and children, and even angrily denied that He Dongshun Ming was his own son, saying that he had not tested DNA.

As soon as He Dong Shunming heard what his father said, he sued Eric Zhang without saying anything, and also claimed $6 million in mental compensation.

Because of this son, in 211, Stanley Ho informed He Wanqi and He Dongshun, and he demanded the HK$ 2 million that was given to He Wanqi that year.

At this point, He Wanqi and He Hongzhang, who once loved each other, also became strangers.

In September 217, Stanley Ho died, and neither He Wanqi nor He Dongshun Ming appeared at the funeral scene.

Nine months after Stanley Ho's death, on June 5, 218, He Wanqi died in Yanghe Hospital at the age of 95.

After He Wanqi's death, her spokesperson Miss You announced He Wanqi's last wish. Miss You conveyed He Wanqi's original words: "Ask Mr. Ho to' settle the bill' and' pay back the money'! Stanley Ho has bullied me for so many years. I hope he can pay back the shares and dividends that have been owed to me for more than ten years and more than 2 billion yuan as soon as possible. I can transfer to the foundation and continue to do charity. "

Earlier, He Wanqi mentioned her brother Stanley Ho in her autobiography Memoirs of Ten Girls Against the Devil, and wrote: However, mom, you would never have imagined that Jiu Ge, who vowed to take care of me that day, would bully his siblings in the future, not only failing to fulfill his promise to take care of his mother, but also showing no concern for brotherhood.

It's a shame that the brotherly friendship between Mr. Stanley Ho and He Wanqi can come to this stage.

I have to say that He Wanqi's life is legendary, but also sad.

If life can be chosen again, I wonder if she will be born in a rich family as deep as the sea?
