Recently, a crazy photo was uploaded on the Internet, saying that it was a gathering of big names in the Hong Kong ladies' circle, which was very lively.
Xu Ziqi, the daughter-in-law of a billionaire family, and Lin Tian'er, the daughter of the billionaire Lin Jianyue;
The two of them stand properly in the middle of the photo, and the scenery is infinite.
In contrast, Li Jiaxin, who took a lot of effort to marry into a wealthy family, can only stand aside.
But the strange thing is that there is no pride of the Huo family in this photo - Guo Jingjing.
Speaking of which, Guo Jingjing was actually present that day;
He also deliberately wore a ruby ring the size of a pigeon's egg, obviously prepared and carefully dressed up.
As soon as this incident came out, the Internet immediately fried the pot, and it was rumored whether Guo Jingjing was being hung out by other rich wives.
After all, her family background is indeed ordinary compared to those celebrities;
My father is a railway worker, my mother is a factory worker, and the conditions of my family are average since I was a child.
That day, Guo Jingjing was in a group of bejeweled ladies;
Wearing a red dress that I have worn several times before, it is really not very eye-catching.
But then again, Guo Jingjing's participation in the group photo may just be a matter of whether people themselves are happy or not.
You must know that the Huo family is a super wealthy family that has done great things for the country;
It is well-known in Hong Kong and the mainland.
Let's talk about Guo Jingjing herself, the identity of the Olympic champion;
It is already a height beyond the reach of those noble ladies who rely on the family property to eat.
Regarding the rumors of exclusion outside, Guo Jingjing didn't bother to pay attention to it at all;
Her attitude is: those who are clean are self-purifying.
As for the Huo family, they have long stood quietly on her side, giving her enough support and confidence.
The power behind this is not comparable to a few group photos.
01 The Olympic champion married into the Huo family and reshaped the image of a wealthy family with frugality
Guo Jingjing is not only the pride of China's diving industry, but also a model of maintaining a unique style after marrying into a wealthy family.
As a brother-in-law, Huo Qishan once unabashedly said that his sister-in-law Guo Jingjing is the ideal woman in his mind.
And her mother-in-law Zhu Lingling admires her even more and often praises her.
Father-in-law Huo Zhenting's attitude towards Guo Jingjing has always been full of respect and love, long before Guo Jingjing officially became the daughter-in-law of the Huo family, he expressed his position in public;
As long as Guo Jingjing is willing to marry Huo Qigang, her life after marriage can be completely as she wants, without any constraints.
At the grand wedding of the two, Huo Zhenting faced the national camera, sincerely thanked Guo Jingjing for her willingness to "marry" the Huo family, and clearly required the Hong Kong media to use the word "marry" in the report to show respect for Guo Jingjing.
After marriage, Guo Jingjing, no matter what kind of activities she attends, Huo Zhenting will always take the initiative to give up the central position (C position) for her, which shows her important position in the family.
Even if he wanted to see his grandson, Huo Zhenting had to obtain Guo Jingjing's consent in advance, which shows that Guo Jingjing's dominance in the family is extraordinary.
Therefore, when it was rumored that Guo Jingjing was squeezed out by the Hong Kong Kuotai circle, her father-in-law Huo Zhenting was the first to stand up for her and resolutely maintain the image of his daughter-in-law.
In July this year, Fok Zhenting accompanied Guo Jingjing to attend the Hong Kong Book Fair, and they brought their little granddaughter to make a warm appearance, which is undoubtedly a powerful response to those Hong Kong ladies who have worked hard to consolidate their status.
It is not so much that Guo Jingjing is excluded by the so-called Hong Kong Kuotai circle, but that she disdains to fight with these people at all.
After all, Guo Jingjing, who has the halo of an Olympic champion on her head, never needs to bow down or cater to anyone for her glory and achievements.
She has won the respect of the world with her own strength, and has also won the sincere acceptance and favor of the Huo family, which is her greatest confidence to walk into a wealthy family.
Fok Ying-tung is a patriotic giant who cherishes the feelings of his family and country, and his contribution to China's sports industry can be regarded as a monument that will remain forever.
With his death, the Huo family once lost its former glory.
At this time, Guo Jingjing, the veteran Olympic champion with countless reputations;
With its unique charm and tenacious spirit, together with her husband Huo Qigang;
Revive the Huo family's influence in the sports world and help Huo Qigang start his career in politics.
When Huo Qigang was elected, Guo Jingjing sent a bouquet of ingenious vegetable flowers;
once again demonstrated her low-level and frugal attitude to life.
Back in 2012, the Huo family had a dispute over an inheritance of up to HK$30 billion;
It once became the focus of Hong Kong society and lost its reputation.
In the face of disputes within the family, Guo Jingjing resolutely stayed away from the grievances of wealthy families;
Decisively moved out of the luxury mansion with Huo Qigang and lived in an old three-story building.
The walls are mottled and peeling, but it is difficult to hide the couple's unpretentious philosophy of life.
The picture of Huo Qigang carrying a snakeskin bag on his shoulders is a vivid portrayal of their daily frugal life.
Guo Jingjing, as the wife of a billionaire family, dresses plainly;
Dozens of dollars of clothing, five-cent rubber bands, old clothes that have not been changed for many years;
All reveal her thrifty style.
Huo Qigang was also under the influence of his wife, fading the glitz of his son-in-law;
Happy to queue up for discounted items, and have a good idea of the prices of all kinds of dishes.
Their children also grew up under the concept of "poor support", wearing affordable clothes of dozens of yuan;
On holidays, the couple will also take their children to the field to plant seedlings;
Educating them personally to cherish food is hard-won.
Guo Jingjing and his wife's frugality are not stingy, and their great love and generosity in public welfare and charity are touching.
In 2020, in the face of the severe situation of the new crown epidemic in Wuhan, they responded quickly;
He took the lead in donating 70 million yuan, and even took to the streets to deliver boxed lunches to the elderly in distress.
At the height of the epidemic in Hong Kong, they once again reached out to help;
Donated HK$10 million and a large number of medical supplies.
This sense of responsibility and selfless dedication to the society has enabled Guo Jingjing and his wife to set a new model of wealthy families in the new era, interpreting that true wealth lies in spirit rather than material, and has won wide praise from the society.
02 From a diving queen to a low-key lady
If you want to talk about a real wealthy lady, Guo Jingjing is definitely the representative who is not inconspicuous, but has outstanding strength.
She is not ostracized by the circle of wealthy families, but has no intention of competing for beauty on that glamorous stage.
Her calmness and self-confidence are not those who rely on her husband's wealth;
Rich wives who are busy showing off can compare.
The reason why Guo Jingjing can be so calm and calm is all because of her own hard work and achievements.
Since she was a child, when she was 7 years old, Guo Jingjing began to have an indissoluble bond with diving, and her parents sent her to the diving team.
At first, the road was not smooth, and her kneecaps were naturally prominent, which challenged her aerial stance.
In order to improve this problem, she had to endure the severe pain of the coach's knee pressing every day, and the hardships of this process made even the parents who were watching so distressed that they wanted her to give up.
But the little Guo Jingjing gritted her teeth and insisted, never crying easily;
This perseverance made her go on step by step.
Through tireless training, at the age of 12, she was selected by the national team for her outstanding performance.
In the national team, she understands that her teammates are either talented or hardworking, so she sets higher standards for herself.
In training day after day, in order to ensure the precision of the movements;
Guo Jingjing even developed the habit of opening her eyes when entering the water, and this almost harsh self-demand, coupled with systematic high-intensity training, made her skills more and more sophisticated.
Guo Jingjing's career is a record of a series of brilliant achievements:
At the age of 14, she won the women's double crown at the World Cup diving competition in Atlanta;
At the age of 15, he won the fifth place in the 10-meter platform diving at the Atlanta Olympics;
At the age of 19, he won a silver medal in the two-man three-meter springboard at the Sydney Olympics;
At the age of 23, at the Athens Olympics, he won the championship of the single and double three-meter springboard;
At the age of 27, at the Beijing Olympics, he once again won the gold medal in the singles and doubles three-meter springboard.
Until her retirement in 2011, Guo Jingjing's sports career was as bright as the stars, winning a total of 31 world championship titles and four valuable Olympic gold medals, worthy of the reputation of "Queen of Diving".
The effort behind this is unimaginable to ordinary people.
Long-term diving training left her visually impaired and nearly blind;
But she did not give in, in order to live up to the cultivation of the coach and her own years of sweat;
She still stood on the jumping platform with a blurred vision, continuing her glorious journey.
Outsiders may think that her sacrifice is huge and the future is unknown;
But Guo Jingjing used her own persistence to write her own legendary chapter and opened the "Guo Jingjing era".
This glory is the best reward for her countless times of falling and getting up, countless times of sweat and tears.
03 The diving queen falls in love with a wealthy son
If you want to say that the big star among the sports stars, Guo Jingjing is definitely the number one, so radiant that she attracts Huo Qigang, the son of a wealthy Hong Kong family, what is so strange?
In 2002, Huo Qigang returned to China after completing his studies, surrounded by young ladies from wealthy families;
According to the routine, he also began to associate with these famous families, but these seemingly well-matched relationships were like boiled water to him, tasteless, and soon dispersed.
Time to 2004, Athens Olympics, Guo Jingjing won two gold medals in one fell swoop;
The calm atmosphere on the field hit Huo Qigang in front of the TV at once.
He fell in love with this diving queen at first sight and became her little fan brother, and his eyes were full of Guo Jingjing's shadow.
He plucked up the courage to tell his family, but he didn't expect the whole family to support him to pursue this heartbeat.
The opportunity came, Guo Jingjing went to Taiwan to attend a dinner after the Olympics, and Huo Qigang nervously and excitedly took a photo with her.
Guo Jingjing readily agreed, not noticing Huo Qigang's careful thinking at all.
After taking a picture, Huo Qigang was still "greedy" to shoot again, and the two left more memories of the same frame.
The next day, Guo Jingjing was waiting for the boat at the dock and was busy carrying luggage;
Huo Qigang appeared and offered to help, and Guo Jingjing recognized him as last night's photo partner.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and Huo Qigang chatted with her in stumbling Mandarin;
Guo Jingjing was moved by his sincerity and hard work and exchanged contact information.
After that, in order to communicate with Guo Jingjing more smoothly, Huo Qigang attacked Mandarin;
Following her competition schedule, she became her exclusive photographer.
Although Guo Jingjing's schedule was almost empty, Huo Qigang's persistence and sincerity slowly melted her heart, and she agreed to the pursuit of this "little fan brother".
Huo Qigang never complained about the lack of opportunities to meet, but followed her footsteps tirelessly.
This fate seems to be the arrangement of fate.
Especially after understanding the background of the Huo family;
You will find that Huo Qigang's love at first sight with Guo Jingjing is more like a doomed one.
Although the Huo family is not among the four wealthy families in Hong Kong, it is famous;
The influence is far-reaching, which is due to Huo Qigang's grandfather Huo Yingdong's deep affection for the country;
and Huo Qigang's father, Huo Zhenting, who is active in the sports world;
In particular, it played a key role in Beijing's bid for the Olympic Games.
In the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Guo Jingjing's gold medal was awarded by Huo Zhenting;
The two families seem to have been indissoluble for a long time.
But when the relationship was exposed, the Hong Kong media portrayed Guo Jingjing as a gold worshipper who clings to a wealthy family, and the outside world questioned it.
Huo Qigang didn't mind these prejudices, he just treated Guo Jingjing wholeheartedly.
In order not to affect her training, he accepted all the "unfair" conditions of love and waited patiently.
After Guo Jingjing retired, she chose to study abroad;
Huo Qigang was more eager for marriage, but he respected Guo Jingjing's choice and waited patiently.
Until the wedding, Huo Zhenting's sentence "Thank you Guo Jingjing for marrying the Huo family";
Let all doubts disappear, proving that this love is beyond money and status, and is a true soul match.
04 A moment of wisdom reveals the status of a wealthy family
At the funeral of Fok Yingdong's wife Lu Yanni in 2020, Guo Jingjing only used one gesture;
revealed her true status in the Huo family.
On the same day, three generations of the Huo family were interviewed by the media, and Huo Zhenting, who was immersed in the pain of losing his mother, had no time to take care of anything else.
Juniors Huo Qishan and Huo Qiren stood on the highest step behind their father in ignorance;
This move is extremely inappropriate among the wealthy families with strict rules;
Especially on the solemn occasion of the grandmother's funeral, the Huo family must avoid leaving any opportunity for the outside world to pick on them.
At the critical moment, Guo Jingjing, who is the sister-in-law, quickly noticed the gaffe of the two brothers-in-law.
She conveyed a warning with a piercing look, followed by a wave of her hand;
made Huo Qishan and Huo Qiren realize their mistakes and quickly adjust their positions.
The tacit cooperation of this look and gesture instantly preserved the dignity of the Huo family, demonstrating Guo Jingjing's keen observation and wisdom in the face of danger.
Guo Jingjing is not only the guardian of the Huo family's external image, but also the leader of the family's reputation and development.
As early as 2013, the second-generation children of the Huo family ignored Huo Yingdong's wishes;
When the city was full of turmoil due to the competition for production, Guo Jingjing, as the eldest daughter-in-law, showed her sobriety and responsibility.
Faced with the damage to the family's reputation, she resolutely moved out of the Huo family's mansion with her infant son and Huo Qigang;
Handle the move in an extremely low-key manner.
The couple did it themselves, and the image of Huo Qigang carrying a snakeskin bag was in stark contrast to the background of a wealthy family;
It came as a surprise to the outside world.
In the following years, Guo Jingjing successfully reversed the image of the Huo family in the eyes of the public with her own strength.
She wore dozens of yuan domestic sneakers to walk the red carpet and wear a few yuan hair rope to attend the military parade and other frugal behaviors;
Set up a low-key and pragmatic model of a new giant.
Guo Jingjing's frugality deeply influenced Huo Qigang;
In the past, the sons of wealthy families who did not touch the spring water of the sun can now skillfully compare the price of tomatoes in the vegetable market stalls;
It completely subverted people's inherent perception of the life of a wealthy family.
Although they are extremely frugal in life, Guo Jingjing and Huo Qigang have never been stingy in public welfare.
During the epidemic, the two donated 70 million;
and personally went to the streets to distribute boxed lunches to the homeless;
It shows the spirit of boundless love.
With the support of Guo Jingjing, Huo Qigang's political career has become smoother and smoother;
It is expected to become the "first brother" in Hong Kong's political arena.
Guo Jingjing's simple temperament and noble character without jewelry embellishment have won the respect and love of the outside world;
Her sobriety and cleverness lie in the fact that she indifferently faces the competition for tens of billions of assets within the family;
Fully assist Huo Qigang to move towards his career and achieve a higher value of life.
