A rich man with a difference
As the saying goes: a woman does a good job, it is better to marry well. How many women dream of becoming rich and wealthy all their lives? A lifetime of not worrying about work and not struggling for life can also make it easy for the next generation to win at the starting line.
To say that the people who have the most opportunity to get close to the rich circle should be the female stars of the entertainment industry, they rely on their high-quality looks, get to know each other at various business cocktail parties, and some people can take this opportunity to become rich and wealthy.
But is the rich Mrs. Kuo really that good? In fact, in addition to being often ridiculed by netizens about fertility issues, it will also be questioned by netizens about married life. Counting the female stars who are married into the entertainment industry today, which one has not stood on the cusp of the storm?
Xi Mengyao has been ridiculed by netizens many times because of the problem of having children, saying that she has become a "fertility machine"; Guo Biting has also been ironically lost herself after marrying Xiang Zuo, and her hair cuts have to be disciplined by her mother-in-law; Huang Shengyi's black history has been continuously dug up after marrying Yang Zi, and in recent years, she still wants to wash white through the popular variety show.
It seems that many actresses who marry into the giants cannot avoid being talked about by people, but there is only one actress, Xu Ziqi, who has become a woman who is "born for the giants" in the public's mouth, which is envied.
Xu Ziqi can marry into the rich as fate, and get the love of Lee Ka Shing, the youngest son of Hong Kong billionaire Lee Shau Kee, sitting on nearly 100 billion assets, in addition to relying on her mother's cultivation of her from childhood, but also thanks to a person - Liu Huijuan, the ex-wife of her father-in-law Lee Shau Kee.
Since it is an ex-wife, it actually does not matter to Xu Ziqi, so why should she thank Liu Huijuan? This has to start from the story of Liu Huijuan and Lee Shau Kee.

From Hong Kong sister champion to full-time wife
When the two first met, Liu Huijuan was already a Hong Kong sister champion, and Lee Shau Kee was not the current real estate tycoon, but could only be regarded as a fledgling "poor boy".
Although Liu Huijuan, as a Hong Kong sister elected by a competition held by an unknown nightclub in the 50s, her influence is naturally not as good as that of the Hong Kong sister elected by the competition held by TVB later, but it is still impossible to deny Liu Huijuan's appearance advantage, otherwise Lee Shau Kee would not have looked at her for no reason.
For Liu Huijuan, Lee Shau Kee at that time was just one of her many suitors, and could only be regarded as some capital, definitely not one of the best.
At that time, Lee Shau Kee had just made a small profit with the 1,000 yuan borrowed from his father for foreign exchange and gold business, accumulated a certain amount of capital, and was ready to start planning his real estate business.
It is said that men should start a business first and then start a family, but Lee Shau Kee wants to grasp both ends, while beginning to pursue the rather beautiful Hong Kong sister champion Liu Huijuan, while cooperating with several of his friends to start a real estate company.
Liu Huijuan regarded Lee Shau Kee as a "potential stock" to invest in, and decided to marry herself to him when his career was just starting out, trying to be the woman behind him.
I have to say that Liu Huijuan's vision of choosing her husband is indeed good, the business talent accumulated since childhood has achieved Lee Shau Kee all the way, in just a few years, Lee Shau Kee's value has appreciated all the way, and the company he and his friends founded Sun Hung Kai Has also been successfully listed.
After Liu Huijuan married Li Shaoji, the two have been dividing labor according to the traditional concept of male and female protagonists, Li Shau kee concentrated on trying to fight for his career outside, and "Xian Nei Help" Liu Huijuan took care of housework at home, and the feelings of the two were like glue.
It is precisely because of the family and Wanshixing that within a few years of marriage, Liu Huijuan concentrated on taking care of her three daughters and two sons, and Lee Shau Kee's career was also smooth sailing, getting bigger and bigger.
Unloading the aura of her "Hong Kong Sister Champion" and marrying a small boss, no one knows why Liu Huijuan at that time could be at ease as this "little woman"?
03
Insisting on managing the company was divorced
Soon after, Lee Shau Kee decided to set up his own portal and founded Henderson Land. The establishment of this company made Liu Huijuan no longer want to be the woman behind the man, and her strong personality was exposed.
With the establishment of the company and the growth of her children, Liu Huijuan felt that she was becoming more and more idle, and feeling the crisis, she decided to enter her husband's company and wanted to participate in the management work.
Out of love for his wife, Lee Shau Kee is not easy to refuse, so he wants to give her a position at will, as long as she does not intervene, doing things will not hinder the development of the company.
However, the company has a lot of people, Liu Huijuan has no business acumen, saying that it is not too much to say that it is a "vase", repeatedly provoking the dissatisfaction of the company's employees, Li Shaoji wants to persuade Liu Huijuan to go home and be comfortable as a wide wife.
Maybe she is not willing to be treated as a "vase", or maybe she does not want to be a young grandmother who "clothes to reach out and eat to open her mouth", Liu Huijuan insists on staying in the company, she believes that it is the problem of other management of the company, and firmly believes that there is no problem with her way of doing things.
Li Shaoji had no choice but to invite his family and children to persuade Liu Huijuan: "I hope she can give in and enjoy the joy of heaven." Liu Huijuan is still unmoved, even if Lee Shau Kee insists on quitting the company on the grounds of divorce.
In this way, the two were deadlocked and eventually went to divorce.
At the time of the divorce, Liu Huijuan also said to Lee Shau Kee: "I will not regret this decision, and it is useless to find anyone to persuade me!" The two went through the formalities, Liu Huijuan did not want to share the family property, so she flew to Canada alone and completely broke off contact with Lee Shau Kee.
In fact, it is not difficult to see from the fact that Liu Huijuan identified Lee Shau Kee that she is a person with a lot of ideas, and the people or things she believes will be carried out to the end.
This is true even in the education of children, and her tiger mother image is a lingering shadow of children. For example, when children go to study abroad, what major to study, and what kind of other half to find, Liu Huijuan has to manage, which leads to her children being closer to their fathers.

The rich man has never married for her
Liu Huijuan's obstinate behavior, not listening to advice, made the children less willing to contact Liu Huijuan for many years, until Li Jiacheng and Xu Ziqi married, Liu Huijuan did not come back.
I thought that the two had a chance to continue the frontier, Liu Huijuan could no longer be as strong as when she was young, facing Li Shau Kee's affection, I did not expect Liu Huijuan to only say: "You are a good person!" ”
Later, Lee Shau Kee threw himself into his career, appeared on the rich list several times, and won the list for consecutive times, and even surpassed Li Ka-shing, who has always been the richest man in 2021.
But for more than thirty years after the divorce, Lee Shau Kee did not remarry, and even the scandal did not appear, which made him sigh: "He has always been worried about Liu Huijuan in his heart." ”
Affectionate and single-minded men are not often there, and men who are rich and affectionate and single-minded are even less common.
The gambling king He Hongshen, has a total of four wives in his life, and there is a five-room wife who has not passed through the door. Every wife is not a fuel-saving lamp, and the open struggle and secret struggle, power grab can be described as a palace fight drama.
But He Hongshen is still happy to do it, looking for one after another, changing one after another, and even having "three wives and four concubines" at the same time, making this life the dream of all men.
Li Ka-shing also and an inexplicable confidante Zhou Kaixuan, although there is only one wife, but Zhou Kaixuan has become the sometimes nameless wife of Li Ka-shing in people's minds, only because of family and interests.
Many rich people have more than one wife, not to mention ambiguous objects. People like Lee Shau Kee, who have only one wife and have been single for nearly 40 years and have not married, are unique.
Perhaps affected by his parents' failed marriage, Lee Shau Kee's eldest son never married a wife, let alone had children, and Lee Shau Kee could only pin his hopes on his younger son Li Jiacheng.

At the age of nearly 100, he returned to divide the family property
Although Xu Ziqi came from an ordinary background, she had a good education, appearance, and etiquette, which also benefited from her mother's cultivation of her from childhood.
When Li Jiacheng and Xu Ziqi got married, Li Shaoji not only did not oppose throwing hundreds of billions of yuan, generously donated mansions, bought private planes to pick up relatives, and gave his company employees 10,000 yuan in red envelopes.
Xu Ziqi has become the envy of everyone's "hundreds of billions of daughters-in-law", and what is even more enviable is her husband's family environment, there is no concubine, no mother-in-law, and there are almost no people competing for family property, which can be called a perfect marriage.
Because Li Shaoji is eager to hold his grandson as soon as possible, and generously tells Xu Ziqi the reward after giving birth, Xu Ziqi has been giving birth to children continuously after marriage, and his father-in-law Li Shaoji has given hundreds of millions of rewards every time, making Xu Ziqi full of motivation.
Because of the experience of Liu Huijuan, the "mother-in-law", Xu Ziqi is very good at observing the color, she knows that her father-in-law likes children and tries her best to give birth, she knows that her husband does not like to interfere in his career, she does not care to ask, and concentrates on being a good rich wife.
Compared with other female celebrities who marry into the rich, Xu Ziqi is obviously much happier, she has the favor of her husband, and the simple family environment of the in-laws also saves a lot of intrigue.
Looking back at Liu Huijuan, I have to say that she is also a "strange thing", with a good life, but she had to meddle in her husband's company and missed the opportunity to become the "richest wife".
Perhaps because of her inner imbalance, when Lee Shau Kee was old and ready to step down, Liu Huijuan returned to Hong Kong from far and wide in an attempt to get a piece of the pie and make up for her "losses" over the years.
Some people say that since Liu Huijuan was pretentious at that time, she would rather not have a penny and divorce Lee Shau Kee, so she should not come back to ask for money now, which is simply too devaluing her own value.
Some people also say that Liu Huijuan did not find resources for Li Shaoji at that time, originally this money also had her share, xiangfu taught his son for so many years, there was no merit and hard work, and people's money was taken whenever they wanted.
Accompanying her husband from a nameless place to a grand plan, Liu Huijuan chose to leave when she had no worries about food and clothing, and did she regret her original wayward decision in the second half of her life? If she were to do it all over again, would she insist on running her husband's company?
There is no if in life, and we have not known the answer, I am afraid that as long as Liu Huijuan herself knows what she wants.
