From ancient times to the present, there are many poems describing fathers. For example, Su Shi wrote: "My father knows that I am here, and Xiao Xuan is open to the king by the water", and another example is "An idiot doesn't know the ceremony between father and son, which is called" Angry asking for food and singing to the east ". In people's impression, "fatherly love" is always quiet, but we vaguely remember the generous shoulder we sat on when we were young, overlooking the distant scenery there. Father always stands beside us silently. Although they are not good at words, they are always like mountains in the eyes of children, tall and majestic.
Seventeen years ago, Stanley Ho, the king of gambling, said to the groom Chen Zicong at the wedding of his daughter He Chaoyi, who was spoiled by heaven since childhood, "When you marry me, you should remember three obedience and four virtues". This kind of instruction shows that as a father, he loves and shelters his daughter, and his love for his daughter is not neglected at all.
Stanley Ho, the "gambling king", was born in Hong Kong in 1921. He is of Dutch, Jewish, China and British ancestry. In 1947, at the age of 26, Mr. Stanley Ho started his own business, and with the 1 million bonus he got during his work in Lianchang Company of Macao, he founded the Macao Fire and Water Company in Macao to engage in kerosene business. Then he founded Damei Foreign Firm, engaged in textile business.
Stanley Ho seized the opportunity of the Portuguese and Australian governments to further develop the gambling industry, and thus started his own road of "gambling king in Macau". Not only did Stanley Ho do quite well in the gambling industry, but his industries also included hotels, electronics, real estate, oil and so on, covering a wide range.
He is also a famous patriot. In 23, he donated more than 6 million yuan to help the motherland buy back the bronze statue of the pig head of the Chinese zodiac, and in 27, he invested 61.9 million Hong Kong dollars to buy the bronze statue of the horse head and donated it to the motherland.
Stanley Ho is not only overbearing in making money, but also domineering in his love for his daughter. Mr. Stanley Ho has 17 children in his life. Among them, his favorite is his daughter He Chaoyi, because he thinks He Chaoyi is the most beautiful daughter and the most like his child.
Born in a gambling king's family, it goes without saying that they have a golden spoon in their mouth since childhood, and they have lived in a very rich material environment since childhood. In their minds, they don't need to consider whether something is expensive like ordinary people, they just need to consider their own preferences and whether it can match themselves.
This is especially true for He Chaoyi, who is much loved. When she was very young, she said that she wanted the stars in the sky, so Stanley Ho bought her a star and customized a diamond watch to represent the stars. This shows how much Stanley Ho loves He Chaoyi.
When He Chaoyi grew up, she signed a contract with a record company under the name of "He Chao" to engage in her favorite singing career, but it didn't make much splash. When her family were against her, only her father Stanley Ho stood by her side. Because Stanley Ho believes that the happiness of her daughter is the most important thing, and she doesn't need to earn money to support her family for a living.
Later, He Chaoyi turned to the film and television industry and started her own acting career. Although there was no big splash at first like singing, she could only perform some small roles in movies, but she knew that as long as she persisted, she would definitely achieve something.
As a father, Stanley Ho always supported He Chaoyi when she entered the entertainment circle, although other family members were opposed. This is also the reason why He Chaoyi can persist, because his father always stands with himself. Perhaps it is precisely because of Mr. Ho's support that He Chaoyi wants to make achievements to repay his father.
As the saying goes, "Where there is a will, there is a way", He Chaoyi didn't disappoint herself, not to mention her father. She won the Golden Horse Award, the nomination for the Academy Award and the best supporting actress respectively. Stanley Ho was also very happy for her daughter, and contributed 1 million yuan to encourage her to start a film and television company.
He Chaoyi's marriage is also different from the marriage of giants in our impression. She can choose her own lover and the person she wants to marry. So in 23, He Chaoyi married Chen Zicong, who is also an actor. Mr. Stanley Ho even customized a wedding dress worth 2 million for his daughter, and prepared a dowry of 2 million. He also told his son-in-law to obey the three obedience and four virtues and not let his daughter suffer a little injustice.
Whether it's a custom-made watch or the support given on He Chaoyi's favorite road, Mr. Stanley Ho's love for his daughter can no longer be measured by money. This love is priceless for his support, understanding and protection. He Chaoyi doesn't have to sacrifice his happiness for the sake of his family business like other brothers and sisters. Just like an ordinary father in the world, Mr. Ho gave her the best within his power in front of He Chaoyi. What an enviable fatherly love.
But most people are ordinary fathers. Although they don't spend a lot of money on their daughters like gambling kings, they won't let their son-in-law observe three obedience and four virtues at the wedding. But the love of parents is not material. Even if you are silent, every love should be cherished and rewarded.
