Many people understand the benefits of being low-key, but it is very difficult to really do it, especially for young and frivolous young people.Even himself, it was after the age of 40 that he really restrained his temper.
And Fang Mingyuan's age is only 25 or [-] now, but he has achieved a high position that many people can't reach in their lifetime, but he can actively keep a low profile. This kind of disposition is like those wealthy families in Europe with centuries or even thousands of years. Among the core disciples cultivated, they are also extremely rare.
Moreover, Fang Mingyuan started his own business at a young age, and in just over ten years, he pushed his family into the ranks of China's top business families!Although there is still a big gap between the family property and global influence compared with those deeply rooted families around the world, considering this short period of time, it is extremely rare to have such a result. It's a miracle.
As an old European millennial family, the Pope, Holy Roman Emperor, and European royal family also appeared in the Welf family. Its rich historical heritage can be said to be beyond anyone's imagination.
Today's people in the world only know Microsoft, Bill, Buffett, the Ford family, and the Rockefeller family, but they don't know that the rich and wealthy families that have surfaced are just an insignificant part of the rich and powerful families.Those real wealthy families have been consciously hidden after the First World War and no longer appear in front of the public.And through various means, the past of his family is gradually "hidden" from the public's memory.Even if it cannot be completely hidden, what remains in the eyes of the world is only a part of these families, or even a branch!
Although these families have hidden their traces, their influence on the world is still there, but they are controlled through agents large and small.Only those elites who have reached a certain social status are qualified to understand all this.Fang Mingyuan, on the other hand, had undoubtedly already reached this standard.
Patriarch Welf personally came to China to meet Fang Mingyuan this time.In the eyes of many proud Welf clansmen, Fang Mingyuan was indeed given great honor.But Patriarch Welf didn't think so.
Because of Milot Friedrich Welf, he had known Fang Mingyuan for a long time, and the conflict between Georg Ludwig Friedrich Welf and Fang Mingyuan later on It gave him a better understanding of Fang Mingyuan.Such a young talent is developing rapidly in China's economy.Countries with rapidly expanding markets have enormous influence.If the Welf family can make friends with him, and even pull him into the Welf family... It will definitely be of great benefit to the future development of the Welf family - if you want to enter the Chinese market, someone will help you And how could it be the same without help!
Patriarch Welf glanced at Angelina, who was flushed and excited. This is his granddaughter, and he brought her here this time.Although there is a reason for her own request, there are actually other purposes.If Fang Mingyuan and Angelina could rub off sparks, that would be great.marriage.As a result, emerging families and young talents were tied to the chariot of the Welf family. This is a common and effective method used by the Welf family for thousands of years. I don’t know how many elites were absorbed into the family at that time. .The Welf family has been able to stand in Europe for thousands of years, with several ups and downs but continuous inheritance, this method also contributed a lot.Therefore, when patriarch Welf decided to get closer to Fang Mingyuan, he naturally thought of this method.
However, Fang Mingyuan was too young, but his achievements were astonishing. The women of the right age in the offshoot of the family were definitely not worthy of Fang Mingyuan in terms of status, so he could only choose from his own lineage. Angelina is undoubtedly the most suitable one.However, Patriarch Welf was not at all sure whether Fang Mingyuan could take a fancy to Angelina.
Moreover, although Fang Mingyuan is the No. 1 of the third generation of the Fang family, in essence, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the actual head of the Fang family. Will such a Chinese young man accept this kind of marriage? The head of the golf family was not sure either.For Easterners, especially Chinese who have been out of touch with the international community for a long time, it is still difficult for Westerners to accurately grasp their mentality.
Several people were chatting casually. Chief Welf and Angelina would point out the window and ask some questions from time to time, and Fang Mingyuan answered them one by one.
Patriarch Welf was a little surprised. Before coming to China, he naturally worked hard to do a lot of "homework", but there was a big gap between what he saw and what he had imagined.And after the convoy got off the highway and entered Pingchuan District, this feeling was even stronger.
When the convoy arrived in front of the ancient city of Pingchuan, Patriarch Welf suddenly shouted: "Stop!"
The car stopped, and Patriarch Welf pushed open the door and got out of the car, followed by others who didn't understand why.
Patriarch Welf stood by the side of the road, looking at the ancient city of Pingchuan, and couldn't help but be amazed. "Fang, such an ancient city is rare in China?" Such an ancient city, in the era of cold weapons, was obviously an important military site that was easy to defend and difficult to attack.In Europe, castles like this are not uncommon, but he did not expect that in the east, they could still be seen.And although its scale cannot be seen, Chief Welf has a feeling that the area of this ancient city must not be small.
Fang Mingyuan stood side by side with him, nodded and said: "Clan Chief Welf has good eyesight, this is called Zhancheng in China, it means a city built on a high platform with walls like knives, there are only two in the whole country, and One is on the northwest frontier."
"Hmm..." Patriarch Welf laughed, "Are we going to live here tonight?"
"Yes, I believe that Patriarch Welf, you don't like those so-called star hotels? This is my home in Fengyuan." Fang Mingyuan said with a smile, "I hope you, Patriarch Welf, will be satisfied with the ancient houses in our country. .”
"Okay, okay, I'm looking forward to it." Patriarch Welf was immediately interested.
"Fang. I heard that your family is still running a city in China? Can you arrange for me to visit it?" Patriarch Welf glanced around, and the others took a few steps back knowingly. Angelina is no exception.Fang Mingyuan also gestured behind his back, and Zhao Ya and Chen Zhong also took a few steps back.
"Well, Tongyi City, it's only a few tens of kilometers to the northwest from here. Since Patriarch Welf is interested, there's no problem." Fang Mingyuan pointed in a direction.
Patriarch Welf is also very interested in Tongyi, and he wants to see it with his own eyes.This place is said to be just an ordinary county in the inland of China. After receiving the investment from the Fang family, it has developed rapidly. It even has to build five large modern hospitals!Two of them are joint venture hospitals!and.With China's system, it would actually allow private individuals to "operate" a city.This is also what made Chief Welf very curious.
Today's European economy has come to a standstill.However, the economic situation in Asia and the United States is much more optimistic than that in Europe. Capital is profit-seeking, and the Welf family is no exception.He really wanted to know, was everything Milot Friedrich Welf said really that good?Why didn't he choose the state-owned enterprises in Huaxia, and the private enterprises in the coastal areas, but he must cooperate with the Fang family.
Of course.Before that, it was still necessary to resolve the most important purpose of his coming to China, which was Fang Mingyuan's 5.00% shares in HSBC Holdings Co., Ltd., as well as the acquisition of shares in Japan's Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation.
Patriarch Welf glanced at Fang Mingyuan who was standing beside him.Looking at his excessively young face, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. When he was at Fang Mingyuan's age, if he didn't have the halo of his family, he would definitely be inferior to him.I don't know how he got 5.00% of the shares of HSBC Holdings Limited without anyone noticing.
Don't underestimate the 5.00% stake. For HSBC Holdings, which is listed in many places and has many large and small shareholders, a 5.00% stake is already a fairly high-ranking shareholder and is eligible to join the company's board of directors.As Fang Mingyuan is now an important shareholder of Gulf Second Bank, the chairman of Japan's Sogo0 Co., Ltd., the president of Guo's Shipping Group and Hong Kong Kumho Film Group, if he wants to join the company's board of directors, he will definitely get a large number of small and medium shareholders. agree with.Even if the Welf family's explicit or covert shares add up, they only get 40.00% of the shares of HSBC Holdings Co., Ltd., which are still scattered in the hands of seven companies that do not belong to each other.And the 5.00% shares that Fang Mingyuan took out this time, is it all?
Regarding the 5.00% shares of HSBC Holdings Co., Ltd. held by Fang Mingyuan, the board of directors of HSBC Holdings Co., Ltd. has different opinions.Some people think that Fang Mingyuan can be absorbed into the company's board of directors. After all, Fang Mingyuan's golden brand has a considerable influence in the United States, Japan, and Asian countries.Some people also believe that the Second Gulf Bank and many banks under HSBC Holdings Co., Ltd. can be said to be in the relationship of competitors. It is more in the interests of the company to buy it back in hand.
Patriarch Welf was noncommittal about these two views, but he took the initiative to invite Ying to come to Qinxi Province in China in person.
"Patriarch Welf, thank you for being able to come to Qinxi in person at such a sensitive time." Fang Mingyuan let out a long breath.Although it can be said that the epidemic in Qinxi Province was not serious from the beginning, after China was designated as an epidemic area by the World Health Organization, foreign investors and tourists came to China with a lot of scruples.On the one hand, I am worried that I will be infected with the epidemic during my stay in China, and on the other hand, I will face a strict quarantine process whether I return to China or go to a third country from China, which will take a lot of time.This is also the main reason why Fang Mingyuan has stayed in the country for a while.
"An elite with a bright future like Fang you doesn't care. What's so scary about me, an old man who is over [-] years old? Besides, I have already investigated before coming here. Qinxi Province had no It’s an epidemic.” Patriarch Welf turned his head, blinked and said, “Hehe, your ancients have an old saying that wealth must be obtained from risks, I think it makes sense. God is fair, when he closes the door I will definitely open a window for you, just to see if you can find it. When other people are afraid to come because of the epidemic, our arrival will get the warmest welcome from the people of your country, right? "
Fang Mingyuan laughed and said: "If the patriarch thinks so, that would be great!" Regardless of whether the real identity of the patriarch Welf will be reported in future reports, but the important director of HSBC Holdings Co., Ltd. came to Huaxia Qinxi in person. That's enough to make a decision for many who are still undecided. (To be continued..)
