Recently, ZhangZetian appeared in a summit forum in Hong Kong, and was warmly praised by the media: Cow, the sister of milk tea can be framed with He Chaoqiong, and she has properly entered the celebrity circle in Hong Kong!
As everyone knows, the woman who leans on He Chaoqiong on the left and ZhangZetian on the right is the malicious angle of the Hong Kong celebrity circle:
With her at the gathering of the giants, all the stars have to stand aside.
● Third from left: He Chaoying (daughter of gambling king), second from right: Yvette, and first from right: Eleanor Lam (sister of Lin Tianer, second daughter of Lin Jianyue of Lixin Group).
Who is she?
When Hong Kong media mention her, they often attach multiple prefixes-Qiu Degen’s granddaughter, Qiu Dachang’s eldest daughter, Hong Kong’s "hotel queen" …
Born at the top of the pyramid, the "rich three generations" have nothing to say but lie down and win.
However, this woman named Qiu Yongyun lived a distinctive "lady" color among the fans.
The legend began with Qiu Degen, Qiu Yongyun’s grandfather-the Qiu family at that time was not an "old money family", but a refugee who went to Hong Kong in a hurry from Shanghai.
Qiu Degen was born in Ningbo and was born in Shanghai in 1925. In the era of warlord melee, the situation changed rapidly. After only a few months of secondary school, he was forced to drop out of school for a living and went to work with his father.
● Qiu Degen
Later, at the Daguangming Cinema in Shanghai, 15-year-old Qiu Degen got a job as a conductor, and since then, he has formed an indissoluble bond with the film and television industry.
In Hong Kong in the 1950s, before television was popularized, watching movies became an important option for mass entertainment.
Qiu Degen wants to rent a venue to run a cinema, but the urban land price is so high that he can’t afford the land rent. Cash-strapped and eager to make money, struggling, the foreigner keenly turned his attention to the countryside.
After working, farmers are also eager for film and television entertainment, even if they have seen old movies, the audience is also full of interest.
After focusing on the blank of rural movies, Qiu Degen decisively invested all his possessions-renting the Tsuen Wan Theater in the New Territories at a price of 5,000 yuan/month.
By 1960, Qiu Degen had owned 14 rural cinemas and became the famous "king of cinemas" in the New Territories.
● Qiu Degen
If you were someone else, you might work hard in the cinema industry, but Qiu Degen sees further.
In 1959, Qiu Degen set up a "Far East Bank" in the countryside to provide deposit and loan services for farmers. Later, the bank became bigger and bigger, with branches everywhere, becoming the predecessor of Qiu’s Far East Bank.
In 1962, Qiu Degen once again made a stroke of a pen to acquire Kowloon Liyuan, and turned it into a dreamlike theme amusement park, bearing the beautiful memories of several generations in Hong Kong.
With the continuous development of "Qiu’s territory", Qiu Degen handed over one brilliant investment answer sheet after another. Until he entered the year of know life, Qiu Degen was still active in the forefront of business: Far East Development, Far East Investment, far eastern hotel … After a series of assets were reorganized and listed, Qiu Degen’s worth soared and he became one of the richest people.
● Hong Kong Far East Financial Center
In 1980s, Qiu Degen bought a TV station and renamed it "Asia TV Station" in order to renew his dream of film and television. Under his drastic reform, many classic movies and TV series were released, which were widely praised.
Although this TV station changed hands several times later, people all admired Qiu Degen and called him "the father of ATV".
Outside, Qiu Degen is a family pioneer who writes the myth of giants; However, he is a father who has been complained by his children.
How can such an enterprising entrepreneur appease his small family?
Qiu Degen’s first wife was Qiu Jinqiu, his neighbor when he was in Shanghai. They had a harmonious relationship and had four sons and one daughter. In 1964, Qiu Jinqiu flew to Taiwan, China to attend a film festival instead of her husband. Unexpectedly, the plane crashed and the heaven and the earth were separated.
● Qiu Jinqiu
Suddenly suffering from the pain of his dead wife, Qiu Degen blamed himself very much and spent a long time in a low mood and trance.
"For at least a year, I have lived in the memory of Jinqiu. Every day, I am numb and confused. No matter what things are big or small, I can’t afford to be interested."
When Qiu Jinqiu’s sister Qiu Jinlan saw this, she took the initiative to stand up and took on the responsibility of taking care of five children.
Qiu Degen looked at his sister-in-law, who was somewhat similar to his deceased wife. Either out of yearning or out of housekeeping considerations, he took the initiative to write to his father-in-law in Shanghai: he asked Qiu Jinlan to marry a second wife.
This incident caused a lot of controversy at that time. The most unacceptable thing was Qiu Jinqiu’s five children: Xiao Yan became a stepmother? It’s too abrupt.
After the marriage, Qiu Jinlan gave birth to three sons to Qiu Degen, and they got together on holidays, which is a sweet and prosperous family.
● Qiu Jinlan has given birth to three sons for Qiu Degen.
However, the second generation of the Qiu family is very different in ability, and their faces and hearts are different-the original children can’t let go of their bad feelings for their young aunt, and the children on both sides rarely eat at the same table with their fathers.
Among the eight daughters, the one with the most commercial talent belongs to Qiu Degen’s second son, Qiu Dachang, the father of Qiu Yongyun.
As the second generation of giants, Qiu Dachang’s starting point is much higher than his father’s-he not only received a better education, but also had more opportunities for trial and error.
However, Qiu Dachang himself was not satisfied with enjoying the cool under the big tree planted by his father. Since he set foot in family business affairs, he has shown amazing courage.
In 1970, Qiu Dachang, who was only 16 years old, was entrusted by his father to go to Indonesia alone. It took him five months to open a mountain to move his grave and negotiate with the local underworld … He personally completed a playground project, which made his father Qiu Degen sit up and take notice.
At the age of 24, Qiu Dachang focused on the real estate sector, borrowed 1.8 billion Hong Kong dollars from the bank, and hoarded a lot of land, which became the key chip for the market value of "Far East Development" to soar 60 times.
At the age of 26, Qiu Dachang acquired Lixing Development, a listed company, and after a few weeks, he resold it and earned more than 20 million yuan. He liked to mention the title of "Tiger Boy" in the industry.
● Qiu Dachang and his wife
In 1990s, Qiu Dachang went to Malaysia with his family, specializing in real estate. After some strategizing, Qiu Dachang not only gained a firm foothold in Malaysia, but also successfully became one of the four major property developers in Malaysia, known as "Li Ka-shing Malaysia" and "the king of four-star hotels".
Today, Qiu Dachang is still the core head of the Qiu family.
As the saying goes, like a tiger father, like a dog, Qiu Yongyun stands in front of the tall buildings built by his ancestors and parents. How will he keep his job and start a business?
Qiu Yongyun, born in 1979, is the eldest daughter of Qiu Dachang. She also has two younger sisters and a younger brother.
● Qiu Yongzhen
Imagine the third generation of the rich, simply don’t be too cool, with money, resources and connections … What’s not handy for traveling and watching exhibitions?
However, in Qiu Yung-yun’s growing memory, it is another scene: after school, she followed her father for a meeting to inspect the business, and visited Liyuan with her grandfather to find out the details of the operation … What she saw in her parents and grandparents was not extravagance and indulgence, but diligence, humility and progress.
Therefore, when studying abroad, Qiu Yongyun will also go to fast food restaurants to do summer jobs, and also like to eat Wonton Noodles, which is often eaten by ordinary people. His painting style is very grounded.
In 2002, after graduating from University of London, Qiu Yung-yun did not rush back to the family business, but chose to accumulate experience in overseas investment banks.
"My parents have always given me great freedom in this respect, so that I can freely choose my own major and work, and develop towards my own goals. Taking over the family business is an accidental opportunity. "
In 2004, Qiu Dachang developed a large-scale shopping mall project in Malaysia, hoping that his eldest daughter would help. Only then did Qiu Yongzhen end his work and gradually began to emerge in the shopping mall.
In 2007, she brought the Japanese restaurant chain Freshness Burger to Hong Kong.
In 2010, she dramatically assisted her father to spin off the company’s hotels for listing, and Rio Tinto’s commercial map.
● When Disheng Hotel was listed, Qiu Yongyun (first from right) accompanied his father (first from left) to attend the listing ceremony.
In 2011, Qiu Yongzhen was officially appointed as the president and executive director of Disheng Hotel Group, and began to work hard in the hotel field, striving for innovation.
During her tenure, she can not only participate in various summits and forums, but also work with employees in a grounded manner.
She advocates the business philosophy of "Chinese footprint" and advocates opening a four-star hotel overseas to enable Chinese people to feel "homecoming".
Later, as expected, the signs of Disheng Hotel appeared in London, Melbourne, Sydney and other places.
● Disheng Hotel in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
By 2018, Qiu Yung-yun has controlled 44 mid-to high-end hotels around the world and become a veritable "hotel princess" in Hong Kong.
With the continuous improvement of career, honor comes with it. In 2014, Qiu Yongzhen was listed on Forbes’ "Top 12 Outstanding Female Entrepreneurs in Asia"; In 2016, she was awarded the title of "Justice of the Peace" by the Hong Kong government-you know, this honor can’t be won willfully with money, and it represents a wide range of social recognition. Previously, Andy Lau also won the title of "Justice of the Peace".
In the face of external awards, the "hotel princess" is particularly humble: "I am deeply honored and lucky, but it doesn’t mean that I am the best. It may be because there are fewer women in the management of the hotel industry and it is easier to be recognized. I will constantly remind myself not to feel smug, to be down-to-earth … I will continue to work hard to give back to the society. "
What you say must be done. Qiu Yongzhen really takes an active part in all kinds of public welfare activities after work.
Participate in the paradise party as a conductor and raise money;
Attend Qiu Jinqiu Middle School Scholarship Award Ceremony;
Visiting Malaysian National Heart Hospital for sick child send warm;
During the epidemic, he took the initiative to take to the streets to distribute masks to Hong Kong people.
The rich three generations who have worked so hard are really clean.
Gossip media are naturally curious about Qiu Yongyun’s love life: What kind of man can deserve this beauty with both wisdom and wealth?
The children of the giants pay attention to a suitable match. Qiu yongyun’s feelings have always been relatively low-key.
In 2018, when the media saw Qiu Yongyun and Dong Hebin attending the event together, they discovered that they had been engaged for several months.
Who’s Dong Hebin? A search of Hong Kong’s wealthy circles seems to have no such name.
It turns out that he is a Dutch Chinese, and he is a racing driver by profession. In 2010, Dong Hebin signed a contract with Renault, becoming the first Chinese driver in F1 history.
Land Rover has previously released an extreme challenge video: a professional driver drives a pure electric Land Rover up the Tianmen Mountain ladder-the successful driver is Dong He Bin.
Qiu Yung-yun and Dong Hebin seldom show their love, and they provide gossip media with talking materials. Until the birth of the second child, the two did not hold a wedding in public.
As the most powerful successor of the third generation of Qiu family, Qiu Yongyun has always been humble and kept a low profile.
It is said that wealth is no more than three generations, but Qiu Yongjun keeps in mind his grandfather’s family motto of "self-improvement", and is independent, decisive and diligent.
In the shopping mall, she is a vigorous young president; In the family, she is the eldest sister who sets an example; In love, she is also the winner who takes the initiative.
Such a big woman who was born with her own aura is naturally a far cry from those online celebrity stars who are trying to marry giants.
The so-called female role model has never been limited to wealth, but more importantly, even if it has everything, it is still progressive and enterprising.
Be a tree, never a vine.
Dominating oneself is far better than clinging to others.
