Since ancient times, people have always been full of curiosity and imagination about the life of the rich. In 2018, when Lu Yu had the opportunity to visit the life of the "fourth wife" Liang Anqi, she saw what it means to live a "trench without humanity". And today, we are going to talk about another rich man, Shan Zhimin, the owner of Ilkang, his mother's 90th birthday party, and his family's philosophy of life.
Ilcon's birthday feast can be described as a feast for the eyes and tastes. On the table, there are not only fine wines such as Huazi and Maomao, but also king crab-level delicacies. The employees wore uniform red clothes, adding a strong festive atmosphere to this grand birthday banquet. And all this is to celebrate Shan Zhimin's mother celebrating her 90th birthday.
Different from the traditional way of lavish celebration, Shan Zhimin's family chose to hold a birthday banquet in their own hotel. Each of them shows a very high standard and etiquette. Whether it's Australian lobster, snowflake wagyu beef or sashimi abalone, the presentation of ingredients such as Australian lobster, snowflake wagyu or sashimi abalone reflects their dedication to this banquet. After cutting the cake, the Ilcon family also made a generous donation campaign, totaling a staggering 11 million yuan.
In all the shocking celebrations, the "equal treatment" approach of Shan Zhimin and his wife is even more commendable. Not only were red envelopes and birthday cakes distributed to every employee, but even the employees who were unable to attend the banquet but still worked for the company also received real red envelopes and birthday cakes. This is not only a gift of money, but also an affirmation and encouragement for the hard work of employees.
In addition to the generous celebrations, the low-key attitude of the Shan Zhimin couple is also commendable. At the birthday banquet, both Shan Zhimin and his wife Li Liping chose to dress in a low-key manner. There is no domineering "wealthy wife", but more like enjoying a simple family dinner. There is a subtle contrast between this lifestyle and that of some wealthy children: there may be intrigue within some families, but this is not seen in Shan's family.
Mr. and Mrs. Shan Zhimin not only showed their generosity and filial piety at the birthday banquet, but also showed their humanity in their daily life. For example, their second son's love affair with a girl from an ordinary family was fully supported by them. Even though the girl was tested for six years before joining Ilcon, because her qualities and character were recognized by them, they did not see marriage as a tool of profit. This attitude towards children's marriage is already much stronger than that of many wealthy families.
In general, Shan Zhimin's family shows us a philosophy of life that is different from that of traditional wealthy families with their attitude and way of doing things. They not only pay attention to material comforts, but also pay more attention to the harmony of families and interpersonal relationships. Their behaviour and attitudes also provide us with a direction to think about what is truly aristocratic and what is a model of success.
I hope that every reader can have some insights and gains after reading this article. No matter what kind of environment we are in or what kind of status we have, we should cherish everyone and everything around us, and manage our lives and interpersonal relationships with our hearts. At the same time, I also hope that every mother can be healthy, safe and happy!
