Recently, Zong Qinghou, the founder and chairman of Wahaha Group, passed away, which aroused the attention and heated discussion of many netizens.
This outstanding entrepreneur known as the "richest man in common people" is also a great father. He has a net worth of tens of billions but only has an only daughter, Zong Fuli, and has spent nearly 20 years cultivating his daughter to be a good father. A good successor.
In fact, Zong Qinghou’s family members are very simple. His wife Shi Youzhen gave birth to a daughter for him, and his wife and daughter are also Zong Qinghou’s “right-hand men” in his family and career. The whole family is dedicated to the group.
Whenever we talk about Zong Qinghou, many people think that it is relatively rare for the "legendary richest man" to have only one daughter. After all, many wealthy families choose to have more children.
But Zong Qinghou was different. He put a lot of thought into the training of his daughter and was a good and attentive father.
So whenever the media asks Zong Fuli what she thinks of her father, Zong Fuli always simply and directly praises him as "a very good entrepreneur", which also shows that she has learned a lot from her father.
However, rich people like Zong Qinghou, who has a net worth of tens of billions but only has one daughter, are not unknown in the circle of wealthy people. There is such a person in the family of the gambling king that everyone is familiar with. He is the son of the gambling king, He Youlong.
He Youlong is the only son of the gambling king's second wife. Compared with his eldest son He Youguang and his sister He Chaoqiong, who were groomed as successors, He Youlong has always been a relatively low-key presence in the gambling king's family.
He studied abroad in his early years and studied extensively. He also received an honorary doctorate in business administration from Napier University in Edinburgh, Scotland. He is a perfect academic figure.
Then He Youlong returned to China to start a company and listed the company on the Hong Kong GEM. He was praised by the industry as a "business wizard", so he officially entered the list of successors of the He family and became the boss of Melco International under the name of the gambling king. Managing Director.
As early as 2004, Lawrence Ho entered the 31st place on the Hong Kong rich list with a net worth of 3.8 billion. By 2023, his personal net worth has reached 15.5 billion, ranking 370th on the Hurun Rich List.
Even though he is wealthy, Lawrence Ho still lives a low-key life. The only high-profile moment was his wedding to Luo Xiuyin, the granddaughter of Vitasoy founder Luo Guixiang.
The two got married in 2000 and held a grand wedding banquet for two consecutive nights. The banquet totaled more than 100 seats and cost 20 million Hong Kong dollars. At that time, they were also called a "strong alliance" by the Hong Kong media.
Even the gambling king, who was in his 80s at the time, expressed his satisfaction with Ho Youlong and his wife more than once, and even said that they were "comfortable". After entering into marriage, Lawrence Ho and his wife Luo Xiuyin can be called "a model of love from a wealthy family". The two are very compatible both in front and behind, and there have never been any scandals in their marriage for many years.
In the sixth year after her marriage, Luo Xiuyin gave birth to a daughter to He Youlong, and the gambling king personally named her granddaughter He Kaizi. At this point, He Youlong finally became a father, and he has cared for and doted on his daughter since she was a child.
But in the years since, the outside world still has a question, and that is why He Youlong only gave birth to one daughter. As a rich lady, why did Luo Xiuyin not give birth to a son to inherit the family business?
In fact, Lawrence Ho has withstood pressure from his family and the outside world before. He said that his wife's body is more important to him. It turns out that Luo Xiuyin's body has never been strong, and her pregnancy and childbirth also had a certain impact on her.
Therefore, He Youlong, who loves his wife so much, has not pursued rebirth. Instead, he has a strong sense of family and often takes time to accompany his wife and daughter.
For his daughter who is almost 18 years old, He Youlong loves her like a treasure. He once said in an interview that he cannot have exclusive father's love, but his daughter He Kaizi can.
Whether He Kaizi was a child or a girl, he could often be photographed with his father He Youlong by his side.
At the gambling king's funeral, He Kaizi, who rarely appeared in public, attracted much attention. She was neatly dressed in black and had a calm and calm aura. She had already become a young girl, and was praised for being the daughter of a wealthy family. temperament.
Many people say that He Youlong is a genius in the business world. He only loves his daughter and trains her as his future successor. He Kaizi also grew up with a golden spoon in his mouth. He must also have excellent educational resources. This third generation of a wealthy family. Future development cannot be underestimated.
But more people envy He Kaizi for being able to enjoy his father's love all to himself. After all, in the wealthy circle, there are not many rich men like He Youlong who dote on their daughters in a low-key manner.
What’s interesting is that the second brother, who is the most talked about in the gambling king family, currently has daughters in the third generation. Except for He Youlong’s only daughter He Kaizi, his sister He Chaofeng has two daughters, He Qianheng and He Strontium Heng, so the second brother is the third daughter. Several daughters of the present generation may be the future successors of the family.
Therefore, the public also believes that He Youlong will be more attentive to the training of his daughter in the future.
Whether it is Zong Qinghou or He Youlong, even if they only have one daughter, they still protect and train her daughter very well. After all, even if the successor of a wealthy family is a daughter, she is still very good.
