A generation of Hong Kong real estate legends, known as the "Ninth Uncle", Luo Zhaotang unfortunately passed away on the 2nd of this month (the obituary issued by his wife Hui Jieshan) at the age of 90. And on the 15th (today) set up a spirit, a group of rich and powerful people appeared collectively, because Uncle Jiu had a wide range of friends before his death, so there were also many artists in the entertainment circle to participate. It is reported that the Luo Zhaotang family has just ranked 48 and has a net worth of US$1.3 billion.
It is reported that the whole ceremony was held in the "Taoist form", the photo of the ninth uncle in the spiritual hall was written on the top of the "Fushou Quangui", about 300 people attended the memorial, and each of them had a certain social status. In addition to Ren Dahua, Maggie Shaw, Joe Junior, etc. in the entertainment circle, there is also Tang Han, emeritus bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Hong Kong.
Yang Shoucheng, Lui Zhi and Sanzai Lv Yaohua, He Chaoxian, Du Qifeng, Qiu Litao, Huang Yaoming, etc. In addition, many banks and large institutions have sent flower cards.
Although Luo Zhaotang had business cooperation with Li Ka-shing and the fourth uncle Li Shau-kee, he did not see his descendants come to mourn at the scene, but there were flower cards delivered. I don't know if tomorrow's funeral ceremony will have their presence. Because there were too many flower cards sent at the scene, the celebrities and organizations that sent flower cards included Su Shuhui, the old minister of the gambling king He Hongshen, Yang Guojia, the eldest son of the "King of Gongsha", and the Red Cross, were all placed at the door.
Luo Zhaotang's life is full of countless legends, although he is not as good as Li Ka-shing in terms of property, but his kindness is not bad at all compared to them, and he donated 100 million yuan to baptize last year. It is understood that Luo Zhaotang is a native of Hong Kong, because he ranks as the "old ninth" in the family, so he has the title of uncle nine.
Since his father was in the pawn industry, Lo inherited his mantle and founded Yu Tai Hing, which mainly acquired and rebuilt old buildings and engaged in construction, including the construction of Hung Hom Railway Station in the 1970s.
Luo Zhaotang has three sons and two daughters under his knees, the eldest son Luo Shouhong is an architect, and he runs a "black tea house" hotel and serviced residences, as well as a nursing home for the elderly named "Cultural Village". The second son, Luo Shouhui, runs real estate investment, and the third son, Luo Shouyao, although a filmmaker, also participates in the family business.
Because the family has always been relatively low-key, there is rarely bad news coming out. However, Luo Zhaotang knew that it was not easy to move all the way, even if it was inconvenient to move more than ten years ago, he still sat in a wheelchair every day, going to and from the base camp in Central, and the wind and rain did not change.
But it is gratifying that Luo Zhaotang died very peacefully, because there were about 20 people in four generations accompanying his bedside. After the completion of the spirit on the 15th, a funeral will be held at 10 o'clock on the 16th, and the funeral will be officially held at 11 o'clock. The death of a generation of legends is inevitably a little heartache, but he walked very peacefully, and this result was prepared for a long time ago, after all, his age is also there.
