The eldest sister's family took a civil aviation flight from Chengdu to Hong Kong. Yang Dongxu originally planned to fly his private plane to pick them up. As a result, the eldest sister Hongying didn't know where she knew the cost of taking off and landing a private plane, and she refused to let Yang Dongxu send a private plane to pick her up. In the end, Zhou Yao had to give the eldest sister a first-class seat.
In the morning of the next day, Yang Dongxu left the hotel and walked to the cemetery in Hong Kong. Zhou Ya did not follow him. He waited in the hotel with his son and went to the airport to pick up his eldest sister at noon.
Zhou Ya only wanted to help the rich family this time, but she actually also had the intention of breaking off the previous favor. After all, when the two parties broke up, Yang Dongxu and Zhou Ya both maintained their relationship with the rich family with the idea that business cannot be done without benevolence and righteousness.
But what the rich family did was, except that Fu Chaming was unable to completely cut off contact with Yang Dongxu due to the source of diamonds and gemstones. The attitude of other wealthy families towards their couple was as if they were strangers.
Even when Fu Chaming got married, he originally agreed to arrange a Chinese-style wedding for Zhuo Qing'er to gain favor from Zhuo Qing'er and to make Zhuo Qing'er's studio famous in Hong Kong, but it was eventually cancelled.
So even though Zhou Ya was grateful to the rich man, this time she helped the rich man was the last time. From now on, everyone will be just friends who knew each other at that time. No matter what things they do, they can show off their bargaining chips and talk about cooperation and favors.
When he came to the cemetery, he saw that almost all the people from the rich family were there. Yang Dongxu didn't have much surprise on his face. It is true that rich people still have money in their hands, but life is really difficult.
Unless they are determined to directly immigrate and develop overseas, it will be extremely difficult to do anything whether in Hong Kong or on the mainland.
After all, if a rich family wants to live a life like ordinary people, then the money they have now can ensure that all their grandchildren will live a prosperous life. But among the brothers from the rich family, except for Fu Decai, who was originally a prodigal, the other three brothers all wanted to make a career.
Having money does not satisfy their inner needs. While having money, they also want to have status. But having money and no business status is obviously not enough. After all, it is impossible to pursue an official career with the previous recognition from a wealthy family.
So Yang Dongxu suddenly expressed his stance at this time, which was definitely a timely blessing for the rich family. After all, Dade Real Estate went bankrupt and was acquired. But although Fu Dehai's personal connections have shrunk greatly, they still have some residual connections.
In addition, now that I have money in hand, it is possible to establish a company with the help of this personal connection and develop it. Otherwise, when these connections become unfamiliar with the passage of time, the only thing the rich family wants to do is to go overseas.
The two parties exchanged a simple greeting and the group walked towards the cemetery. The rich man's cemetery is very ordinary, which he requested before his death.
In fact, according to the wishes of the brothers from the rich family, they hope to find a gentleman with extremely high skills to find a piece of Feng Shui treasure land to use as the family's cemetery to build an ancestral hall. In the end, due to the insistence of the rich man, he didn't do it and bought an ordinary cemetery here in the cemetery. In the words of Mr. Fu, after he died in the cemetery because there were so many people, he would not be too lonely lying here with many people around.
"If you still want to do business in the mainland, do more charity. For example, donate teaching buildings to universities, or build schools for children in mountainous areas.
Reputation is indeed very important when doing business. When you are not strong enough, your connections are not that strong. Having a good reputation can ward off a lot of troubles.
For example, this time when Dade Real Estate went bankrupt and the connections you relied on before left, if you had a good reputation before and if one of the leaders above you had some sympathy, your end would not be so miserable. "After standing in front of Mr. Fu's tombstone for a while, Yang Dongxu still couldn't help but speak.
Favor is the hardest thing to explain clearly. Even though he wants to reconcile with the rich family in his heart, what he does now is not bound by the favor from the rich family before. But thinking of the rich old man, Yang Dongxu still couldn't bear it, so he said a few more words.
Fu Dehai's previous cooperation with him went so smoothly that he thought he was very capable. After leaving Hurricane Construction to establish Dade Real Estate, it caught up with the dividends of the domestic real estate explosion, so Dade Real Estate developed rapidly. This made him feel powerful again.
Is Fu Dehai very powerful?
Simply speaking, his work ability is indeed very good, but in other aspects, he is far behind. For example, when it comes to compiling his personal connections, he is more than one step behind Li Chaoren.
For example, before Li Chaoren entered the mainland, in addition to doing business, he also made various donations and actively made friends with senior officials. This kind of friendship was not just words, but actually thinking of various ways to do practical things. .
For example, the donation from Yangtze University, and the donation from Hope Primary School. Also, if there is any major disaster in the country, people will donate money and materials as soon as possible.
Although this kind of charity is done with the intention of opening up business avenues, people actually do it. And by using this approach, we maintained a long honeymoon period with the mainland.
On Fu Dehai's side, all his connections come from his partners, and his reputation is nothing more than his title as a Hong Kong businessman. So although he has absolute control of the company, this control feels like a castle in the air.
If his company's accounts were completely reasonable and legal, then he would still have a chance to survive. After all, there is a Hong Kong tycoon with his name on his head. Even if some people are greedy for his fat, they must consider the price of messing up.
But the development of Dade Real Estate has left too many problems for people, so when someone starts to care about Dade Real Estate, his partners will leave directly. Then Dade Real Estate has no other way except bankruptcy. .
If Fu Dehai insists, the final result will not only be bankruptcy, but also imprisonment. After all, there are too many clues left for people.
It would be better to declare the company bankrupt directly, and then everything will be finalized. The previous illegal loans and land acquisitions were all liquidated after the bankruptcy. Although the company is gone, Fu Dehai has got out of this mess and will have the opportunity to do something else in the future.
"I have realized it, but it was a little late to react." After hearing Yang Dongxu's words, Fu Dehai had a complicated expression on his face, and finally sighed deeply.
In the past two years, he has only insisted on holding the position of chairman of the Hong Kong Chamber of Commerce with Li Chaoren. Everyone thought he was just unconvinced that Li Chaoren had taken his position.
In fact, the development of Dade Real Estate has encountered a bottleneck. After careful consideration, Fu Dehai discovered the emptiness in his foundation, so he wanted to make up for the empty foundation as soon as possible, and the position of chairman of the Hong Kong Merchants Association is undoubtedly a solid foundation brick.
It's a pity that he knew it a little late, because Li Chaoren, who knew this better than him, finally took advantage of the gap between him and the hurricane building to take the chairman's position. How could he give up so easily?
In fact, his third brother Fu Deguang was right in saying that Li Chaoren was the only one who united so many people to deal with him. Except for the fact that Dade Real Estate had too many shortcomings and was spotted by others as an opportunity to become a piece of fat. There is also the reason why he insists on competing with Li Chaoren for the position of chairman.
After all, Li Chaoren has entered a honeymoon period with the mainland through various donations and help to do practical things in China. Half of the reason can be attributed to his status among Hong Kong businessmen.
Only equality has the right to dialogue. Otherwise, why would people choose you?
Mainland China's top leaders only welcomed Li Chaoren because they wanted to use him to express the mainland's attitude towards Hong Kong businessmen, thereby attracting more Hong Kong businessmen to invest in the mainland.
Therefore, Fu Dehai and Li Chaoren have been competing for the position of Hong Kong business representative, which is tantamount to digging into their foundation. In this way, people naturally saw the opportunity and kicked Fu Dehai out.
"What are your plans next?" Yang Dongxu asked.
Seeing him talking to Fu Dehai, the rich family members knew enough to leave first and put some distance between them. Originally Fu Deguang didn't want to leave, but after being glared at by Fu Decai for a few times, he had no choice but to nod and leave with a forced smile.
Among the four brothers, in addition to being afraid of his second brother, he was also afraid of his fourth brother. Although my fourth brother has always been a libertine, he never cares about family affairs.
"I don't plan to do real estate. After all, even though I came out of that mess, my name is probably on the list, and no one dares to cooperate with me now." Fu Dehai said with a self-deprecating smile, "So during this period I paid attention to other industries in mainland China and felt that the electronic product industry has also been growing rapidly in recent years."
Fu Dehai's words made Yang Dongxu a little surprised, but he didn't show it on his face.
Based on Fu Dehai's business vision, if he can start a new business step by step step by step. It is not impossible for the rich family to make a comeback.
"Do you have a goal?"
“I have a few friends in Wanwan, and some of them have started to open electronics factories in the mainland. Some of their electronic products also have markets in Asia, and they even do OEM work for companies in Europe and the United States.
They have the technology, and labor in the mainland is so cheap, but the pace of expansion is a bit slow due to lack of funds. And I happen to have money in hand and need projects, so I plan to invest and give it a try.
After all, I can't do business in Hong Kong. Even if those people don't continue to embarrass the rich because of your face, if I still want to start from Hong Kong, especially if I am engaged in real estate, this is undoubtedly a provocation. "
Although the anxiety during this period made Fu Dehai look very tired, it seemed that in less than half a month, there were more wrinkles on his face than on his face in previous decades. But he obviously had some intention of learning from the mistakes and gained wisdom. Although the business was gone, he understood a lot.
"It's good to be an OEM." Yang Dongxu said.
But he just said it briefly and didn't inquire about it carefully. Although the rich old man was kind to him before and said a few words too much.
But just to say a few words, now that Fu Dehai has a new goal, this matter can be considered over. What happens to the rich family in the future is the rich family's business, and he won't be too fussy to give any advice.
