In the glamour of Macau, there was a billionaire story, like a thrilling movie plot. His name is Wu Wei, a character who has gone from a street vendor to a casino boss. Fate was not merciful to him. Behind his success, there is an incredible truth: when he learns that the child he has worked so hard to raise is not his own, the shock and despair of that moment are like a bolt from the blue, tearing apart his seemingly brilliant life.
Ng Wei's story begins in a slum in Kowloon, Hong Kong. Coming from a poor family and his parents were struggling to make ends meet, he was forced to shoulder the burden of life from an early age. In the days of selling meat in the market, Wu Wei not only had to face competition in business, but also the threat of gangsters. In order to solve the problem of protection money, he reluctantly joined the 14K Gang in Hong Kong and became a small leader. At first, he thought he would be able to escape poverty, but he didn't realize that life in the underworld was also full of violence and danger.
When Wu Wei chose to flee to the Philippines, he did not think that he would change his fate because of this. There, he quickly rose to prominence with his wit and sociability, becoming the director of a casino. In his work in the casino, Wu Wei not only accumulated wealth, but also gained self-confidence. It was during this time that his talent caught the attention of Macau gambling king Stanley Ho, who recruited him to become his most effective assistant.
The partnership with Stanley Ho brought Wu Wei's career to its peak, and he is regarded as a hero of Macau's casinos. Behind the success, Wu Wei's love life is constantly turbulent. His combination with the strong woman Situ Yulian is a good story in the industry, but it also hides a crisis. Although the two are allies in their careers, they find it difficult to trust each other emotionally. Wu Wei's betrayal and Situ's anger eventually led to the breakdown of the marriage, leaving each other with endless pain and regret.
After breaking up with Situ Yulian, Wu Wei and his new love Chen Meihuan entered the marriage hall, and it seemed that fate favored him again. Business is booming again, and family life also gives Wu Wei a long-lost happiness. He did not hesitate to add the vast majority of his property to Chen Meihuan's name, looking forward to a better future. The bubble of happiness bursts in an unexpected genetic test. The doctor's report was like a sharp blade, piercing Wu Wei's illusions, and he found that the child he had raised for many years was not his own, and his anger and despair were intertwined, and his heart was like a knife.
At this time, Chen Meihuan did not treat Wu Wei well, and what accompanied the divorce was her conspiracy to secretly transfer property. What was once trust turned into the price of betrayal, and Wu Wei went from a billionaire to a joke in the eyes of everyone. Even more tragic, a violent attack on him left him with lifelong trauma. The attack of the six gangsters disabled him and lost his original brilliance and strength.
With Chen Meihuan's bankruptcy and disappearance, Wu Wei's life seems to have ushered in a new turn. His experience is undoubtedly a profound reflection on fate: behind the seeming perfection of everything, there are undercurrents surging, and reality is as vagaries as dreams. Perhaps, fate is so fickle, always quietly setting traps when you think it is safe.
At this moment, although Wu Wei retired to the rivers and lakes and lived in luxury, there were still unsolved mysteries and pain in his heart. His experience teaches us that money and status cannot fill the emptiness and pain in our hearts. In the end, Wu Wei may understand that true wealth is not external wealth, but inner peace and contentment.
Life is like a play, drama is like life, between ups and downs, Wu Wei uses his own story to tell us: no matter where we are and what challenges we face, inner tenacity and truth are our most valuable assets. I hope that after every fall, I can get back up and meet the dawn of the future.
