The family is in the middle of the road: The rich young master has become a beggar
The young Stanley Ho originally lived a prosperous and decent life, and he was a rich son who was envied by everyone. Who knew that the good times would not last long, and his father's investment failed and the family went bankrupt. This series of accidents instantly fell the He family from the peak to the bottom, lost all the family property, and owed a lot of debts.
The mother could no longer withstand the blow and the pressure of life, and suddenly ran away from home. Stanley Ho and his brother can only rely on each other for their lives, struggling under the attitude of their relatives who will not save them.
The situation is much worse than before, and they struggle with hunger all day long, sometimes even squatting on the streets to beg for food. This kind of life is nothing less than hell for Stanley Ho. He has been pampered since he was a child, and he never imagined that he would one day fall to the bottom of society and be reduced to the point of being penniless.
Macau for money: first love and the first pot of gold
In order to survive, the young Stanley Ho came to Macau alone to make a living. Every grass and tree here seems to be stained with the smell of money, which makes him have a glimmer of hope - maybe the small town will become an opportunity for him to change his fate.
With his flexible mind, Stanley Ho quickly got a job as a secretary in a company. He was diligent and studious, and was soon appreciated by his boss and promoted to partner.
Just when his career took off, a young love also quietly sprouted. Stanley Ho met local socialite Lai Wanhua and fell in love at first sight. Not only is she talented and beautiful, but she also has a lot of social connections – her father is the only notary in the city.
However, the social atmosphere at that time was conservative, and intermarriage between China and foreign countries was still not accepted. Stanley Ho is well aware of his status at this time, and it is impossible for him to be a close friend with Miss Li.
However, the power of true love is indiscriminate. In order to impress Miss Lai's heart, Stanley Ho began to learn Xi Portuguese diligently, just to communicate better with her. He would wait at the entrance of Miss Lai's school after work to chat and walk with her.
The two fiery hearts gradually merge into one in this romance. Finally, Miss Lai agreed to marry Stanley Ho, which became a big talk in Macau at that time.
Inspired by love, Stanley Ho's career is thriving. With his wit and skill, he expanded the territory of the company, and his performance was thriving. However, with great merit to the master, he began to kick the iron plate in this small city.
The opponent threatened, forcing Stanley Ho to choose to leave. Although he was reluctant to give up, he was more aware of the current situation and could only choose to back down. Stanley Ho decided to return to his hometown of Hong Kong with his family and savings to start a new business.
The first pot of gold and his first love became an unforgettable glorious memory on the road of his life.
Hong Kong is popular: real estate makes new wealth
Returning to Hong Kong, Stanley Ho decided to step into the real estate industry. He is keenly aware that with Hong Kong's population growth and rapid economic development, real estate will have a lot to offer.
With his business acumen and judgment, Stanley Ho decisively chose the wise path of commercial real estate development. At first, He's company was just a small company.
However, under Stanley Ho's leadership, the company expanded rapidly, with more projects and a growing reputation. Within a few years, the property company had taken shape in Hong Kong.
Keeping pace with his career is Stanley Ho's love life. One day, Mr. He happened to meet a young and beautiful woman at a banquet. Her name is Lan Qiongying, and she is only a girl in her early 20s.
But when Stanley Ho met her eyes, he was deeply attracted to this vivid smile. Although the age difference between the two is huge, they can't stop the power of Eros in the end.
Miss Lan soon became the new love of Boss He's life. For this relationship, Stanley Ho has prepared a luxury mansion and jewelry to make his sweetheart live a worry-free life.
Macau reigns king: game with an old enemy to seize power
Not satisfied, Stanley Ho, whose career is booming, has once again set his sights on Macau, where the casino industry is booming but leaderless.
With ambitions, Stanley Ho knows very well that it is difficult for him to do things alone. So, he chose two allies with the same business acumen and skill: Ye Han, the heir of the gambling king, and Fok Yingdong, an industrial tycoon.
The trio teamed up, and they did make a name for themselves in the gambling world at the beginning, and even won the right to operate several casinos. However, the good times did not last long, and He Huo and Ye Han gradually disagreed on their business philosophy.
Ye Han adheres to the old way, but the two advocate reform and innovation, and are even more enterprising. The three drifted apart, and disputes were inevitable.
Stanley Ho decided to oppose the public with Fok Ying-tung, who had a heavy army, and launched a "coup d'état" to depose Ye Han's power in the casino. With the strong influence of the two in the business circle, coupled with the deep methods of the city government, this "coup" ended in the complete victory of the Ho family.
Since then, Stanley Ho has been the most influential in Macau's casinos, gradually consolidating his dominance. All casinos are firmly controlled by the Ho Twins.
Twilight romance: remarrying a dancer at the age of 72
In his later years, Stanley Ho was still suave and suave, not at all lifeless like ordinary old people. At the age of 72, he is still radiant and energetic. Once, Boss He participated in a business cocktail party, and his eyes inadvertently met a dancing girl who was dancing lightly.
Her name is Liang Anqi, and she is a 26-year-old girl with a youthful body. In her whirling and dancing posture, Mr. He saw the long-cherished wish and passion of the year. He has always boasted of being romantic, and immediately decided to pursue this gorgeous colorful butterfly.
So, Boss He began to curry favor with Miss Liang in a big way - giving famous cars, mansions, and jewelry, just asking for her heart. In the end, Miss Liang was also deeply moved by the old and strong Chairman He and agreed to enter the palace of marriage with him.
Marrying a dancer at the age of 72 undoubtedly became a topic of gossip at that time. However, Stanley Ho didn't care about these criticisms at all, he seemed to have found a long-lost passion, and he was in harmony with his young wife Qin Se all day long, loving and loving, not at all like an old man.
Perhaps, money and status can rejuvenate people and make them unattainable for ordinary people.
Chinese dream: dedication to the nation to serve the country
In his later years, Stanley Ho did not indulge in romance and indulged in his wealth and career. Because he also shoulders another ideal -- national rejuvenation and the rise of the motherland! As a wealthy Chinese, Stanley Ho cares about the children of China and always remembers his blood and roots.
When Macau returned to China in 1999, he was already the head of the local gambling king, but he still did his best for this historic event. Chairman Ho not only lent land to the government for preparation, but was also an important member of the drafting team of the Basic Law of Macau.
Thanks to the hard work of the great Confucians, including him, Macao returned to the embrace of the motherland two years later as scheduled.
The national righteousness also inspired Stanley Ho to devote himself to the great cause of strengthening the country with science and technology and the revitalization of talents. He spared no expense in setting up the "Stanley Ho Aerospace Science and Technology Talent Training Fund" to train aerospace science and technology professionals urgently needed by the mainland.
Since the continuous operation of the foundation, a large number of talents have been sent to the motherland's space industry every year, providing a solid backing for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. In addition, He Lao also publicly bid for the National Treasure of the Old Summer Palace, the Bronze Horse, which was plundered by the British and French forces, and finally returned all of them to the country free of charge.
A series of patriotic measures show Stanley Ho's sincerity in caring for the nation.
