The funeral was held grandly and many people came. In addition to some dignitaries, there were also many celebrities and business leaders, both domestic and foreign.
There are even a few faces that are very familiar to Yang Dongxu, and they are probably Fu Dehai's partners in the mainland. He didn't say hello to these people.
After paying homage to the rich old man, he called Little Hutou beside him, and the two of them sat in the rest area next to the funeral. After paying homage to the rich man, he followed the funeral convoy to send 10% off.
"My father and second uncle would like to invite you to sit at home tonight." After the funeral, Fu Chaming said to Yang Dongxu after sending away the guests who came to pay homage.
"As you know, the country is quite busy now, so we need to rush back. I have already checked out of the flight on the peninsula this afternoon." Yang Dongxu declined politely.
The rich family is going to separate. This is the most popular sentence at the funeral of Mr. Fu these days. It is probably also the most popular sentence in the minds of many people who come to pay their respects.
The separation of the rich family has actually started in the early years, but because the rich old man is still there, the four sons are still connected, but now that the rich old man is gone, the last trace of the bond has disappeared. Although the four brothers from the rich family will not fight against each other, their relationship will definitely not be as harmonious as before.
First of all, when the rich old man split up the family, he favored the eldest son, Fu Chaming, but the ones that have developed the best in recent years are the second eldest son, Fu Dehai, and the seemingly inconspicuous fourth son, Fu Decai.
Although Fu Decai seems to have no real estate now, the only company he works for, Haina Entertainment, is now semi-retired, only taking dividends every year and not taking care of things.
But he is the person from the wealthy family who has invested the most with Yang Dongxu, both domestically and overseas. Therefore, in terms of total assets, he does not look as scary as Fu Dehai, but the hidden assets in his hands will stun those who know him.
Then there are the eldest brother, Fudeshan, and the third eldest brother, Fudeguang. They were optimistic about overseas markets before, but their investment failed. In the end, although I relied on some connections at home and the help of Yang Dongxu, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
But compared with the booming development of the mainland market, although their overseas investments are not losing money, they are even making profits. But the gap between him and the other two brothers is getting wider and wider.
Although the two of them have reacted and started investing in the mainland in the past two years, after all, many industries started late and have been occupied by others, and the early investment has once again fallen into the pit, so now Su Ri'an's development can only be regarded as satisfactory. He is definitely richer than the average person, but he is still a long way from other people who really seize the opportunity.
Therefore, there is an imbalance in the assets in hand, and there is also an imbalance in resources. No one expected that these four brothers would support each other and move forward. Because in addition to the inequality in assets, except for the fourth brother Fudecai who is still a prodigal, the other three brothers have their own families and have their own sons.
Therefore, many people are waiting to see the drama between the rich brothers fighting for the family property after the old man is buried, and they speculate whether the rich family will be devastated as a result. And Yang Dongxu didn't want to watch, and naturally he wouldn't get involved.
"This is the Yang Dongxu that grandpa often talks about. Isn't it a bit disrespectful?" A young man next to Fu Chaming snorted in an unkind tone.
Fu Chaming watched Yang Dongxu get into the car and leave, and then looked sideways at the son of his second uncle's family, who was his cousin.
"Why did I say something wrong?" Fu Changzhi looked at himself up and down, as if Fu Chaming looked at him this way, wondering if he was wearing something wrong or if there was something on him.
Fu Chaming shook his head and said nothing, then turned and walked inside. The funeral was over but the affairs of the rich family were not over yet. His cousin looks down on Yang Dongxu. Whether he is complaining for his father or acting, it has nothing to do with him.
The rich family may break up as rumored, but it won't let people watch a big show of brothers fighting over the family property. Because they had indeed separated a few years ago, and some properties that had not yet been completely divided, the four current families would not fight each other to the death.
Therefore, the biggest impact of this separation is the issue of resource sharing. When the old man is alive, he can be the central coordinator, so that the four brothers can still take care of each other even if they cannot cooperate sincerely.
Now the relationship may still be somewhat involved, but some resources must be clearly divided. For example, my third uncle, Fudeguang, first failed in overseas investments, then invested in mainland China, and got into trouble again in Hainan real estate.
Later, he made some achievements under the care of the three brothers. Now he sees the real estate boom in the mainland and wants to get involved. And if he works alone in this area, he will definitely become a competitor with his second uncle Fu Dehai.
But if he joins the second uncle's camp, the wealthy family will be instantly divided into three parts. The second uncle and the third uncle belong to one group. His fourth uncle, the rich and virtuous, will definitely still be a dissipator without asking anything about things, and their family will belong to another group.
In fact, it was his father's idea to let Yang Dongxu participate in the rich family's family meeting, and it was also what Fu Chaming wanted to see. Because since Fu Jia and Yang Dongxu parted ways a few years ago.
He is the only one who is still close to Yang Dongxu. No matter what weddings or funerals the Yang family has, or when he goes to pay New Year's greetings to Mr. Xuan every year, he has never missed it.
Therefore, if Yang Dongxu is on his side at this time, he will be more confident when facing the powerful second uncle and the fourth uncle who seems to be indifferent but has enough capital. But Yang Dongxu obviously doesn't want to take a trip into this muddy water.
We packed our things and got in the car. This family meeting was going to be held at the old house.
"He didn't agree?" Fudeshan glanced at his son sitting next to him.
Fu Chaming nodded.
Fudeshan couldn't help but show a look of disappointment on his face, but he quickly cheered up, "It's normal if he doesn't come. If he comes, he probably won't be him. What do you think of the old man's remaining assets?"
Generally speaking, the separation of families is not a big problem. This was done a few years ago. What everyone needs to sit down and negotiate now is the things left behind by the old man, such as several properties besides the old house, those antique calligraphy and paintings, and some sideline businesses of the wealthy family.
Although the rich brothers are all respectable people now and will not get slapped in the face because of these things, it does not mean that they do not want these things. Even the richest Fu Dehai dare not say that he is not moved by the things left by these old men.
"The old house will definitely not be divided up. It is probably still jointly owned by the four families. For the other properties, we can first fight for those few properties, and then some antique calligraphy and paintings. As for those secret businesses, my third uncle has been Aren't you quite interested? Forget it for him." Fu Chaming thought for a moment and said.
"Why do you choose so? Those secret businesses are the big ones." Fudeshan glanced at his son.
"We have already cleared the shore, there is no need to get into the water and get muddy again." Fu Chaming said.
Fudeshan nodded and said that taking both black and white was playing with fire. Since you can already make money clearly, there is no need to take risks and play black. But he couldn't help but feel a little distressed when he thought about those profits. After all, although the money can be spent freely without any risk, the speed of making quick money through sideways is really fast. Otherwise, why do people always say that the most profitable transactions are all written down? In law?
"Why choose real estate? Although the value of the old man's properties is not bad, the real estate market in Hong Kong is not recovering at present." Although he was a little reluctant to give up, now that his son had made a choice, Fu Deshan decided to bear the pain and give it up.
Fu Chaming, who was unknowingly taken along by the old man to study, has grown up and taken charge of his own business. Now, whether it is investment or jewelry business, he is doing better than him.
Although Fu Deshan has mediocre talents, he has one advantage: he listens to people who are better than him. Especially after the failure of overseas investment, he has a clearer understanding of his own abilities. So now he takes care of their family's business, and leaves everything like expansion to his son.
"Young Master Yang still has many properties in Hong Kong, and none of them he wants to sell." Fu Chaming said.
"It's not for sale. Isn't it because the price is too low? And the government is afraid that real estate developers will sell off a large number of properties and cause a second collapse of the real estate industry. Bosses like them who hold a lot of real estate have been asked to talk to them. It's a promise." Fudeshan frowned and said.
"Young Master Yang did not sell the house for one reason or another as you said, but not only did he not sell the house in the past two years, he was also quietly buying into it."
"Isn't that a sign of goodwill towards the government?" Fudeshan frowned.
Hong Kong's real estate market is still in turmoil and shows no sign of recovery. Even if mainland real estate becomes popular, Hong Kong is still half-dead.
Therefore, after Yang Dongxu promised not to sell a large number of properties in his hands, he would also buy some houses from time to time to help the government stabilize the market. This was regarded by the industry as a show of goodwill to the government, not only from the Hong Kong government, but also from the mainland. The impression of those big guys will also be better, killing two birds with one stone.
"Although I say that, I always feel that no matter it is Hong Kong or the mainland. Even if Mr. Yang doesn't show his kindness, no one can do anything to him.
After all, agreeing not to sell the property in hand has already met the government's requirements. He does not use money to buy houses that no one wants to help stabilize the market. He uses money to invest in other industries to stimulate the economy, which can still impress the government very well. "Fu Chaming said.
"You mean" Fu Deshan responded.
Throw the money into the cesspool of Hong Kong real estate instead of investing in other industries to make money. There is only one possibility to do this. In Yang Dongxu's opinion, investing the money in other industries is not as profitable as buying real estate in Hong Kong.
"This is just my guess that is a bit uncertain, but now our family's business is not short of funds for the time being, and we are not waiting to divide the family property to survive. So even if more is divided, it is just the icing on the cake, it is better to take a gamble. You can earn more if you win, and it doesn't matter if you lose." Fu Chaming said.
Fudeshan showed a thoughtful expression.
