Preamble:
How does a person go from deep poverty to a business empire, and how does he suffer trauma in marriage and family?
What kind of twists and turns and moving legend are hidden in the life experience of a Hong Kong tycoon?
Children from poor backgrounds
In 1943, in the heart of Hong Kong's bustling metropolis, an ordinary poor family welcomed a young boy - this child was Yang Shoucheng, a famous business tycoon.
In that turbulent era, the war was raging, the people were struggling to make a living, poverty and hardship were imprinted in the lives of almost every ordinary person, and the Yang family was no exception.
Yang Shoucheng's father, Yang Cheng, was an ordinary watch repairman, and the food and clothing of the family became a problem.
When he was 11 years old, there was little left in his family, and the poverty made it impossible for the young Yang Shoucheng to continue his studies, so he could only go into society alone and start his own difficult life path.
For a young child, this is undoubtedly a difficult decision.
However, Yang Shoucheng seems to be born with a tenacious tenacity, and he will not give up easily, but with his excellent business acumen and keen insight, he has gradually found a place in this challenging business sea.
First of all, Yang Shoucheng founded a company called "Astronomical Watch Company", and soon obtained the agency rights of top international watch brands such as Rolex and Omega.
With his keen sense of business opportunities and enterprising spirit, Yeung soon became a leading figure in Hong Kong's watch industry.
Tough Fight Back: Regaining Strength from the Bottom
Recently.
In the early 80s of the 20th century, the real estate industry fell into a cold winter, and Yang Shoucheng's career also suffered a heavy blow, with a debt of up to 300 million overnight.
For most people, this is a major blow that is too much to bear, but Yang Shoucheng did not give up.
He chose to work in financial institutions such as HSBC first, and in just three years, he paid off all the debts of up to 10 million yuan with his hard work.
Later, Yeung founded a number of well-known magazines, such as "New Paper" and "Economic Digest", and re-established himself as a leading figure in Hong Kong's high society.
From a crumbling valley to the peak, Yang Shoucheng has shown his never-say-die tenacity.
With his business acumen and tenacious fighting spirit, he has regained his strength from setbacks again and again, and finally achieved an extraordinary business legend.
Enter the entertainment industry: build the British Empire
Just when his career was booming, Yang Shoucheng's eyes turned to the Hong Kong entertainment circle.
In 1987, he founded Emperor Entertainment Group, and soon established an unshakable position in this circle, becoming the "big boss" who soared here.
Under the leadership of Yang Shoucheng, Emperor Entertainment Group has risen rapidly and become a powerful force in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
He did not hesitate to provide various resources and support for his artists, such as realizing his dream of directing for Li Keqin and solving difficulties for Nicholas Tse.
This kind of generosity and righteousness and squandering money have also made Yang Shoucheng widely respected in the entire entertainment industry.
But at the same time, Yang Shoucheng's reputation has also been overshadowed by some scandals with artists.
Among them, the most well-known are the rumors of his "spring roll door" and "cake door" with Joey Yung and Gigi Leung.
It is reported that Joey Yung was still a nobody when he first joined Emperor Entertainment, and then quickly became a household name with the vigorous support of Yang Shoucheng.
Once, Yang Shoucheng also specially invited superstars Jackie Chan and Alan Tam to appear to help and cheer warmly for Joey Yung's performance.
After this grand performance, Yang Shoucheng had a whim, proposed to play a game of "eating spring rolls" with Joey Yung, and promised that the winners would receive key support.
This slightly absurd request undoubtedly caused an uproar at the time, and people speculated that there might be some ulterior motives behind it.
Similarly, some people have witnessed the fragrant scene of Yang Shoucheng and Gigi Leung once tasting delicious cakes together.
What is surprising is that Gigi Leung, who has always been quiet and dignified, behaves so boldly and generously at such a moment, and seems to have an unspeakable ambiguous relationship with Yang Shoucheng.
These gossips undoubtedly cast a shadow on Yang Shoucheng's reputation in the entertainment industry, but his full support for outstanding artists has also won everyone's respect and reverence.
Married life: the ups and downs of life
Compared with the brilliant achievements of his career, Yang Shoucheng's married life can be described as ups and downs and full of drama.
At the age of 20, Yang Shoucheng entered the palace of marriage for the first time and married Ms. Ren Manling, who had a prominent family.
But the good times didn't last long, and Yang Shoucheng did not live a stable life as conscientious as ordinary people, on the contrary, he continued to be treacherous and had romances.
It is reported that once Ren Manling witnessed the intimate scene of her husband and an actress, caught the rape on the spot, and almost wanted to commit murder with a knife in anger.
Faced with his wife's pain, Yang Shoucheng felt extremely ashamed, and repeatedly knelt down and begged for mercy, admitting his mistake.
But Ren Manling couldn't forgive her husband's dereliction of duty after all, and resolutely chose to divorce.
Although Yang Shoucheng gave everything in the divorce and left her a large amount of property, Ren Manling was still traumatized and left the United States to find another way to make a living.
However, Ren Manling did not live a rich and comfortable life in a foreign country as she wished, but gradually fell to the point where she had to rely on being a waitress to survive.
It wasn't until a few years later, under the sincere persuasion of her daughter, that Ren Manling made up her mind to return to Hong Kong, and finally joined Emperor Entertainment Group with her talent, showing her strength again.
The trauma of marriage does not seem to have taught Yang a long lesson.
At the low point of his career, he met Lu Xiaoman again, and his friends persuaded him to marry this lady so that he could be transferred.
Sure enough, after marriage, Yang Shoucheng's career soon embarked on the road of rehabilitation and development.
Interestingly, Lu Xiaoman didn't mind her husband's romantic history and various scandals, and even showed tolerance and generosity beyond ordinary people.
People in the company have witnessed Yang Shoucheng having intimate contact with a female artist, but Lu Xiaoman did not make a fuss at all, but was calm and bold as if he was a lover, which made people smack.
Deep friendship in the entertainment industry
As a well-known "big boss" in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, Yang Shoucheng has made many noble friends, among which the deep friendship with Li Keqin, Nicholas Tse and director Jiang Wen is particularly moving.
When it comes to Li Keqin, it reminds people of the dream he once cherished as a director.
At that time, Rickler was full of apprehension and hesitation about whether he could show his ambitions.
And when Yang Shoucheng learned about this, although he had doubts in his heart, he did not hesitate to take out a large amount of money to fully support it, so that this dream could finally be realized.
For Li Keqin, Yang Shoucheng is not only a boss, but also a relative-like existence.
"Mr. Yang is like a family member to me. Likeler said from the bottom of his heart.
The relationship between the two has long gone beyond a simple superior, and is more of an intimate friendship from the heart.
Similarly, for Nicholas Tse, Yang Shoucheng is more like a kind father.
Whenever Nicholas Tse faces a low point or major difficulties in his life, Yang Shoucheng will always lend a helping hand as soon as possible and provide him with all kinds of help within his ability to solve problems.
The deep friendship with Jiang Wen stems from the common pursuit and persistent persistence of the two in their career ideals.
When Jiang Wen was preparing his debut novel "The Sun Also Rises", he was in trouble due to a lack of funds.
At this moment, Yang Shoucheng did not hesitate to take out a large investment of 30 million yuan to fully support the aspiring director, regardless of any interests and losses.
Although the box office of "The Sun Also Rises" was not ideal at the time, the cooperation between the two parties lasted for a full 5 years.
Until 2011, Jiang Wen's "Let the Bullets Fly" won an astonishing box office of 700 million yuan, bringing considerable returns to Yang Shoucheng.
In this regard, Jiang Wen said frankly: "These honors should be attributed to Mr. Yang, I am just the one who owes him." "
It is precisely because of this kind of full support and pure friendship for aspirants that Yang Shoucheng has made many close friends and confidants in the Hong Kong entertainment industry.
The affection between them is far from being measurable by money, but a soul fit that understands and supports each other.
Epilogue:
Looking at Yang Shoucheng's magnificent life experience, it is not difficult for us to find the unique character and charm displayed by this business giant.
From a poor child to a business empire, he has undoubtedly experienced twists and turns, ups and downs in life.
But it is precisely with his own wisdom and determination that Yang Shoucheng has regained his strength from setbacks again and again, and finally achieved an extraordinary business legend.
At the same time, he has also experienced many hardships and traumas in marriage and family, but he still maintains an open and inclusive attitude and copes with all kinds of conflicts in life in his own way.
In addition, Yang Shoucheng also relied on his righteousness and wealth and full support for aspirants, made friends with a number of well-known entertainment figures, and established deep friendship and friendship with them.
All these undoubtedly give us a more three-dimensional and in-depth understanding of this legendary businessman.
In this materialistic era, Yang Shoucheng's story undoubtedly enlightens us: the road of life is never smooth, but as long as we uphold our indomitable will, we will definitely be able to rise again from the trough and write a more wonderful and brilliant chapter of life.
