In one show, Wang Mingquan asked the gambling king Ho Hung-sun: "Which do you think is the most important thing, money, fame, reputation and women?" The gambler said, "Woman! ”
In 1942, Ho Hung-sun, a rich man who fell into the middle of the family road, fled to Macau with the only remaining 10 Hong Kong dollars on his body. As a newcomer, he spoke fluent English and went to CIMB Macau to do the S business.
A year later, Ho earned his first pot of gold, 1 million Australian dollars, with his clever mind. During this time, he also met his first wife, Li Wanhua, a rich woman.
Lai Wan Hua was born into a prominent Portuguese family, with outstanding looks, and was known as "the first beautiful woman in Macau".
Ho fell in love with her at first sight, and in order to catch up with her, he did not hesitate to run to learn Portuguese, and every day he took advantage of Li Wanhua's school day to ride to her family's Shanshui Garden for a date.
Not only that, He Hongshen also asked Li Wanhua to drink tea after work. One after another, his romance and thoughtfulness captured the heart of Li Wanhua, and the rich Miss Qianjin fell in love with this poor boy who fell into love and willingly became a stepping stone in his career.
Soon after, the two married. After marriage, Li Wanhua gave birth to 1 man and 3 girls, and the family of five lived a very happy life. With the help of Lai's father, Ho became Hong Kong's super-rich.
However, this happy life lasted only ten years, and Li Wanhua was unfortunate to suffer from colitis, and in a sick state, she described it as withered. For a long time, Ho Hongshen's heart was inevitably lonely and lonely.
He once wrote in his autobiography: "I can't be a monk all my life, and I was already a big family, very busy at work, and I had a lot of socializing, and I needed to think that women were running the house and often accompanied myself." ”
So in a chamber of commerce, He Hongshen, after meeting 14-year-old Lan Qiongyi, decided to take her as a concubine. At that time, it was still in accordance with the laws of the Great Qing, so He Hongshen could marry the second house.
After much thought, Ho hung up to Lai Wan-wah's bedside and said to her, "I need a woman around me to stay and socialize, so I'm ready to marry the second room according to the Qing law." ”
Although Li Wanhua wanted to stop it, she knew that she was powerless to return to heaven, so she let him go.
In 1958, Ho bought a villa in Hong Kong as his love nest with Lan Qiongmiao. Since then, he has often traveled back and forth between Hong Kong and Macau, wanting a bowl of water.
After marriage, Lan Qiongyi accompanied He Hongshen to participate in various social interactions, although she was young, but she was at ease with this kind of scene, and she was completely different from what she should look like at this age, which made He Hongshen quite satisfied.
In 1961, Ho took advantage of the legal opportunity of the gaming industry to successfully bid for Macau casinos, and since then he has truly achieved a class leap and become a well-deserved giant.
In 1962, at the age of 19, Lan Qiongmiao gave birth to one of her daughters, He Chaoqiong, with Ho Hung-sun. In the next few years, Lan Qiongyi gave birth to 1 male and 3 females in succession, why did the Hongshen family branch and scatter leaves.
In 1973, the big house Li Wanhua suffered another senseless disaster, she was suddenly in a car accident, her chest was severely injured, and she was in a coma for a whole month, and since then she cannot take care of herself, and can only be bedridden for a long time.
Eight years later, even bigger blows followed, and the eldest son, He Youguang, who was originally selected as the heir, died in a car accident, which made Li Wanhua even more depressed and tragically completed the second half of her life until her death in 2004 at the age of 80.
In 1985, When Ho was 64 years old, Lan Qiongyan had settled in Canada with peace of mind, and Li Wanhua, who was seriously ill at the time, in order to fight against Lan Qiongyan, arranged his personal caretaker Chen Wanzhen with the gambling king.
Every time the gambling king came to visit Li Wanhua, he would meet the gentle and virtuous Chen Wanzhen, and after adding Li Wanhua's intention to match, Chen Wanzhen, who was born ordinary, was upgraded from a private caretaker to the third wife of the gambling king.
After that, the person who accompanied the gambling king was no longer Lan Qiongyi, but became Chen Wanzhen. However, Chen Wanzhen is very low-key, she has given birth to 3 children and carefully cultivated.
Because Chen Wanzhen did not have too much heart for people, Lan Qiongyi did not think too much, until 1989, the gambling king took four more rooms to let Lan Qiongyi feel the crisis.
At a private dance in 1986, the gambling king was impressed by Liang Anqi's dancing skills. After the song, the gambling king remembered her and arranged for her to work in his own company.
3 years later, the gambling king suddenly confessed to her: "I don't want to change dance partners, so many years I found you is the best, I would like to live with you, are you willing?" ”
In this way, two days later, Liang Anqi became the fourth wife.
Liang Anqi has no right and no background, and she is more ordinary than Chen Wanzhen who has the support of a big house. However, Liang Anqi's cunning has made her the biggest winner after the second room.
The gambling king announced that Liang Anqi was the fourth aunt and empress, purchased a mansion as a love nest for the two, and said to her: "I will give you 100,000 yuan of living expenses every month." ”
But Liang Anqi said, "I don't want money, I want you to teach me to do business." ”
The gambling king was very pleased, gave her some industry, and told her to take care of the business, but she did not expect that she would get started quickly, and later she could even come up with suggestions to solve some business problems.
Such a shrewd Liang Anqi made the gambling king can't help but marvel: "How can you be so strong as a little woman!" ”
Slowly, Liang Anqi took charge of most of the core industries under the gambling king, and even took away the shares of He Wanqi, the sister of the gambling king, and gradually established her own business territory with ambition and ability.
In fact, in addition to the 4 wives, the gambling king also had scandals with Kwong Meiyun, Li Zhi and the nurse Zheng Yongshi, but they were all cut off by Erfang and Liang Anqi.
Looking back at the four wives of the gambling king, in addition to the original Li Wanhua who was more miserable, the other three rooms were winners. Li Wanhua, who suffered and was used, finally made a wedding dress for others.
Ho Hung Sun mediated with four women all day long, and it is no wonder that he felt that women were the most important compared to money, fame and fame.
In 2020, 98-year-old He Hongshen passed away, and the legend of a generation of gambling kings came to an end, and the 500 billion family property and 17 children he left behind continued to write his legend!
