Ho Chiu Kiong is a key figure in Macau's real estate industry, and her love life has attracted much attention. She once had a first love, that is, Chen Baiqiang, a famous Hong Kong singer, but unfortunately he died early. Later, she married Hui Jinheng, a member of the Macau gambling king family, and their marriage attracted everyone's attention. The couple have children and control Macau's real estate and gambling industries. Their marriage symbolizes the union of two families, which is complex and eye-catching, further cementing their position in Macau society.
Born into a wealthy family
Ho's upbringing is a story of vitality and tenacity. She was born in Macau in 1962, coinciding with her father, Stanley Ho, obtaining Macau's gaming patents, which seemed to herald a time of prosperity and hope. He regarded her as a "blessed general" and hoped that she would inherit the success of the family.
As the fifth child of the gambling king, her mother Lan Qiongying is also a determined woman, she was a famous family before she married into the He family, but married He Hongshen's second house for the sake of the family. She named her daughter Chaoqiong, pinning her hopes on her future and hoping that she could surpass herself.
Lan Qiongying is a resolute and decisive woman who takes a unique approach to education. For young He Chaoqiong, life is simple and worry-free, she performs well in the small book every day and is rewarded with stars, which is the motivation given to her by her mother. She doesn't get unreasonable because her mother tells her that problems need to be solved instead of complaining.
As he grew older, He Chaoqiong developed a strong interest in poetry, especially Shakespeare. She is considered a typical literary girl who actively pursues art. Her talent was verified after graduating from high school, and she was admitted to the world's top Vasar College, becoming the only Chinese student to be admitted.
Give up your dreams
When He Chaoqiong resolutely handed the notice to her father Stanley Ho, she instantly felt the cold reality. Stanley Ho did not look up, let alone glance at the notice, but firmly told her to apply to business school. Although Stanley Ho is not domineering in the family, and the other children are not forced to make any choices, he has always regarded Ho Chaoqiong as a candidate to inherit the family business, and art is no longer accessible to her.
Looking at his daughter's crying appearance, Stanley Ho's heart also softened. He reassured her in an affectionate tone: "You have always been a child who is more rational than emotional, and it is more suitable for you to study business." If I force you to take the artistic route, you will regret it in the future. He Chaoqiong was silent, her heart was dull, and after a long time of mental struggle, she had to accept her father's advice to go to the United States to study business management.
In 1981, Stanley Ho's eldest son Ho Youguang died in a car accident, and his eldest daughter He Chaoying also had a nervous breakdown. From that moment on, he became more determined to regard He Chaoqiong as the successor of the family business, and He Chaoqiong could only put aside his artistic dreams and choose the path that her father had paved for her.
He Chaoqiong returned to China after graduation, not to work in her father's company, but to start from the grassroots level and join a bank. After she mastered the relevant skills, she switched to the jewelry store opened by her mother, Lan Qiongying, and gradually learned how to do business. After that, in order to prove his worth to his father, 25-year-old He Chaoqiong and several friends co-founded the "Tianji Public Relations Company". In just a few years, Tianji PR has become a high-profile public relations company in Hong Kong, and although it also has some great influence, Ho's personal ability cannot be ignored.
Although she gave up her artistic dreams, she was proud of her remarkable achievements in the business world. However, she has not yet realized that she will have to give up more for the sake of the family.
Meet the loved ones
When He Chaoqiong first met Chen Baiqiang, a popular cream boy in Hong Kong, her heart beat fast and she knew that she had fallen in love. Fortunately, this is not unrequited love. She was deeply attracted by the handsome and melancholy Chen Baiqiang. And Chen Baiqiang also has a soft spot for this cheerful and lively girl.
Two hearts, attracted to each other, cannot resist each other's surging love. Soon, they were honest with each other, confessed their hearts, and came together. At Chen Baiqiang's thirtieth birthday banquet, he specially reserved the position of hostess for Chaoqiong.
This almost announced their relationship, the two sat together and looked like a match made in heaven, and He Chaoqiong smiled brightly. But then, her face gradually became heavy as the gambling king intervened in the situation.
He Chaoqiong is the second daughter of the gambling king family and the most beloved daughter of the gambling king. Her marriage was destined to be closely linked to interests. However, in the eyes of the gambling king, Chen Baiqiang is just a small star in the entertainment industry, with a mediocre background, how can he be worthy of his daughter?
The strong intervention of the gambling king destroyed He Chaoqiong's love, just like the one who destroyed He Chaoying back then, without mercy. As a young girl, how does He Chaoqiong compete with the gambling king? She had to break up with Chen Baiqiang and marry Xu Jinheng, the son-in-law chosen by her father.
Sad sadomasochism
Not daring to disobey her father's wishes, she accepted the arrangement of fate, flew to the United States, and married Xu Jinheng, the grandson of the rich third generation and ship king. This is a doomed marriage, she walked on the red carpet of the wedding, wearing a mask, although she was wearing a beautiful wedding dress, but the sincere smile, optimistic and cheerful He Chaoqiong has disappeared, leaving only a fake smile on her face.
This business marriage not only made He Chaoqiong feel unhappy, but also made her true love Chen Baiqiang heartbroken. He could only tearfully watch the woman he loved marry someone else. At the wedding, his heart was heavy, as if life had been stripped of color. Once talented and beautiful, but now facing a regrettable fate, life and death separate them.
Chen Baiqiang was depressed after losing his love, quit the music scene, and began to indulge in alcohol to alleviate his pain. He wrote a song, "Just Because I Love You", in which he expressed his feelings of helplessness and reluctance. This song is soulful and makes people feel his inner struggle and pain.
However, Chen Baiqiang's pain was unbearable, and he tried to commit suicide at home in 1992. Although emergency treatment saved his life, he could only rely on a ventilator to stay alive, and he remained in a coma. During this difficult period, He Chaoqiong ignored the comments of the outside world and firmly accompanied him and confided in him. Her heartache and reluctance were overflowing with words.
However, after 17 months in a coma, Chen Baiqiang finally passed away forever, without even having the opportunity to say goodbye to his beloved. He Chaoqiong felt very sad, and on the day of Chen Baiqiang's funeral, she ignored her father's obstruction, insisted on appearing, and insisted on carrying Chen Baiqiang's coffin to help the spirit. Dressed in black, she hugged and cried with Chen Baiqiang's mother, expressing her deep reluctance to Chen Baiqiang and her attachment to this tragic love.
However, fate continues to test He Chaoqiong. Her marriage and Xu Jinheng have long broken down, and the two do not care about each other, just like strangers. A few years later, He Chaoqiong and Xu Jinheng officially divorced, and this commercial marriage carefully planned by the gambling king also came to an end. This unhappy marriage ended up with a painful end for the three of them.
After the divorce, He Chaoqiong never married again, and never even made any relationship public. She took over her father's business and threw herself into her work, and the family business flourished, but family management became unnoticed. When everyone thought that this relationship, known as the sadomasochistic love of the century, had long been forgotten, He Chaoqiong publicly showed a photo of his father and Chen Baiqiang at the funeral of the gambling king, continuing the memory of this touching love story.
Gossip boyfriend
According to reports, the famous Hong Kong public relations Cheng Shaokang was rumored to be He Chaoqiong's "gossip boyfriend", he not only performed well in handling Ho Chaoqiong's affairs, but also the first choice of many wealthy people. However, it is interesting that although the fourth wife Liang Anqi tried to hire Zheng Shaokang to do public relations for himself, he was politely rejected by Zheng Shaokang. This makes Zheng Shaokang's status more attention, and even Liang Anqi may begin to feel jealous of him.
Some people rumored that Zheng Shaokang and the late singer Chen Baiqiang were related, which was traced and clarified by some netizens. In fact, Chen Baiqiang and Zheng Shaokang are not cousins, but are only mistaken for kinship because of their work relationship.
More striking, however, is the relationship between He Chaoqiong and Zheng Shaokang. Despite rumors that the two are a couple, officials have not commented on this. He Chaoqiong once loved each other deeply with Chen Baiqiang, but could not be together for various practical reasons, which was a big regret in her heart. Over the years, she has been taking care of Chen Baiqiang's family, perhaps this is her way to make up for the past and protect Chen Baiqiang's memory.
However, online rumors are difficult to believe, because the truth is often not what it seems. So far, the relationship between He Chaoqiong and Zheng Shaokang has been limited to friends and has not been sublimated into a lover relationship.
