In 2023, the Forbes China Hong Kong Rich List was announced, and Liu Luanxiong's name once again attracted the attention of the whole city. However, his ranking was shocking, falling from sixth to eighth place, and his wealth shrank by $500 million, or about 3.65%. The news immediately became a hot topic in the city, raising people's attention to Liu Luanxiong's family and the distribution of property. As a legend in Hong Kong's business community, Lau Luen-hung has always prided himself on his strong physique. In recent years, however, his health has raised widespread concerns.
According to people familiar with the matter, Liu Luanxiong's health is deteriorating day by day, and he is no longer the beautiful he once was. This may also partly explain his decline in the wealth charts, as he has begun to gradually relinquish control of some affairs. Contrary to Liu Luanxiong's physical condition is the distribution of his property. Although his wealth shrank, in the second distribution of property, he divided nearly 80% of the family property to his eldest son, Liu Mingwei, and eldest daughter.
This decision has sparked much speculation, with some believing it to be a sense of duty in the family and others to a commitment to his bloodline. Interestingly, however, less than 20% of the remaining property was distributed to his wife, Gambi. This raises questions about whether Gambi really doesn't care about money. Although she used to have an expensive Hermès bag, Liu Luanxiong ignored it and didn't even mention it.
This raises doubts about Gambi's true motives, whether she really doesn't love money, or if there are unknown reasons why she is not interested in wealth. In 2016, Liu Luanxiong married Gambi, a move that changed the trajectory of their lives. Liu Luanxiong was at the helm of Chinese Estates, but after his marriage, he handed over all the company's shares to Gambi. This move also made Gambi the richest woman in Hong Kong, and her role changed dramatically.
From an obscure business wife, she has become an important figure in Hong Kong's business community, and her influence has continued to expand, which has attracted more attention. However, Liu Luanxiong's eldest son, Liu Mingwei, chose a different path. He left Chinese Estates to take up the management of Ocean Park in Hong Kong, a decision that showed his cleverness and shrewdness. Liu Mingwei is not satisfied with simply inheriting the family business, but wants to prove himself through his own ability.
His outstanding work at Ocean Park has not only led to a significant improvement in the Park's business performance, but also earned him more recognition. Gambi also played an important role in family affairs. Her decision to invest in Evergrande has been closely watched, especially after the Evergrande crisis. Her decisions have had a profound impact on the future of Chinese Estates and have caused volatility in the market.
However, her role is not limited to investment decisions, she also plays an important role within the company, participating in decision-making and strategic planning, and making a positive contribution to the company's financial performance. Perhaps the most interesting issue is the issue of Liu Luanxiong's second distribution of property. Although he left nearly 80 percent of his fortune to his eldest son and eldest daughter, his ex-wife and her children have also raised eyebrows. Whether the distribution of property this time will lead to family disputes and whether there will be discontent are all issues that people are worried about.
However, Liu's decision may also hint at the importance he attaches to his family, and he hopes to ensure the family's future in this way. To sum up, the relationship between Liu Luanxiong and Gambi, as well as the distribution of Liu Luanxiong's property and family affairs, have always attracted much attention. Their stories reflect not only the changing business world in Hong Kong, but also the complex relationship between family and wealth. Gambi's changing role, Liu Luanxiong's health problems, Liu Mingwei's ingenuity, and the distribution of wealth within the family all make up the elements of this family story.
In the ups and downs of the business sea, their story continues, and how it will be interpreted in the future is still unknown, but it will undoubtedly continue to arouse people's attention and heated discussions. In this family story, we see Liu Luanxiong's emphasis on family and his decision-making in the distribution of wealth. His actions have raised questions about Gambi's financial attitudes and the importance of family inheritance. In my opinion, although Liu Luanxiong's decision is controversial, it also reflects his consideration and sense of responsibility for the future of his family.
The distribution of family assets is not only a matter of money, but also a consideration of family values and inheritance. However, this story also reminds us that the distribution of wealth and family affairs are not just individual decisions, but a process that requires the participation and negotiation of family members. In this process, everyone's rights and feelings should be fully respected and considered. Only by establishing good communication and trust between family members can we achieve sustainable wealth inheritance and long-term development of the family.
Finally, I would like to ask readers a question: in your opinion, should the distribution of family assets follow traditional authoritative decision-making, or should it focus more on the equal participation and consensus of family members? What do you think of Liu Luanxiong and Gambi's property distribution decisions? Please share your thoughts in the comments section.
