Through the wealth life

Chapter 515 The death of the ship lord
Time passed, and it came to April 4th in a blink of an eye. This day is a sad day for many family heads in Xiangjiang.

In the morning, as soon as Li Guangyu and Cao Weiqing came downstairs, He Jin reported to them: "Master, madam, I just received the news that Mr. Dong Haoyun suffered a heart attack at two o'clock in the morning this morning, and died in the Sanatorium and Hospital. .”

Li Guangyu was very surprised. A few days ago, Dong Haoyun attended the meeting on Xiangjiang shipping issues with him to discuss the future development of shipping. At that time, he didn't see anything, and his body looked very good. He didn't expect such a sudden message. information.

Not only did Li Guangyu get up and get the news of Dong Haoyun's death, but all circles in Xiangjiang got the news, and countless people were sighing for Dong Haoyun's departure.

Xiangjiang, the world's seven largest shipping kings, occupies two places. Bao Yugang used to be higher in total tonnage than Dong Haoyun's Orient Shipping Group, but most of the assets of the Orient Shipping Group belong to Dong Haoyun, while Bao Yugang's Global Shipping Group is very Most of the shares belong to HSBC.In terms of profit, Dong Haoyun is far higher than the charter king.

Moreover, Dong Haoyun is more pure than Bao Yugang. He has devoted his whole life to shipping, and Bao Yugang was born halfway, and now he abandons the ship and lands. This can be regarded as Bao Yugang's foresight, but when it comes to From the love of the shipping industry, no one in Xiangjiang can compare with Dong Haoyun.

Dong Haoyun's departure at this time has dealt a great blow to the Dong family. Now the shipping market is shrinking day by day, and the Eastern Shipping Group still maintains the world's largest fleet of private companies, and the successor of the Dong family will now face the upheaval of the Eastern Shipping Group. With a debt of more than 200 billion Hong Kong dollars, such pressure cannot be borne by ordinary heirs.

On the morning of the 18th, Li Guangyu came to the Xiangjiang Funeral Parlor located on King’s Road in North Point. Today will be Dong Haoyun’s funeral. As a world-class ship tycoon, more than 3000 political and business people came to attend today, including US President Ronald Reagan and the president of Taiwan. A special condolence call was also sent.

Dong Haoyun's roster of 12 Fuling members today is quite luxurious, including Bao Yugang, Li Ka-shing, Shen Bi, Prince of Morocco, Li Guangyu, Zhao Congyan and others.

Today, the first person to arrive at the mourning hall was Bao Yugang, who had fought with Dong Haoyun for most of his life. The two were both world-class ship kings and fought for the top spot for decades. They didn't separate until Bao Yugang abandoned the ship and landed. win or lose.

Pao Yugang was very sad to see his old friend from the same town go away like this.Although the Global Shipping Group and the Eastern Shipping Group have been clamoring for rankings in the past, they are both from Ningbo, and the relationship between the two is quite good in private.

After Pao Yugang, it was Li Guangyu and MacLehose who stepped into the scene and bowed to Dong Haoyun's coffin.

Behind them were the Prince of Morocco, the Governor of Lisboa, the President of the China News Agency, the President of the Xinhua News Agency, and the heads of the major families in Xiangjiang.

The grandeur of Dong Haoyun's Xiangjiang funeral has refreshed the funeral treatment of the helm of the Xiangjiang Chinese family who died.

The major newspapers in Xiangjiang also carried out a systematic and positive report on Dong Haoyun's body to show their respect for the dead ship king.

At the same time, the three major TV stations in Xiangjiang also made a special report on Dong Haoyun to commemorate the Xiangjiang ship king.

At this time, Dong Haoyun was also called by many media as the pioneer of China's modern shipping, one of the world's seven largest shipping kings, and was hailed as "Modern Zheng He".

Some reporters even interviewed Bao Yugang specifically about Dong Haoyun's evaluation. The mutual entanglement between the two can be said to be accompanied by Dong Haoyun for the rest of his life.

Bao Yugang responded to the outside world: "I'm just a follower of Haoyun. You all know that I didn't start out in the shipping business. It was Haoyun's development that let me know that the shipping business is promising. The pioneer of modern shipping is well-deserved, and his love for the shipping industry is beyond my comparison."

A reporter asked Bao Yugang about the Eastern Shipping Group and Global Shipping Group: "Bao Sheng, now many people think that Mr. Dong Haoyun is more qualified than you to be the world's number one shipping king. In the shipping industry, Dong Haoyun Mister is better than you, what do you think of the comparison?"

Bao Yugang doesn't pay much attention to these names now. He responded: "Since I started to reduce the number of ships in 80 and turned to Wharf, Haoyun is the most important in shipping. He is indeed more important than me. To be entitled to such a title, I am indeed inferior to Hao Yun in terms of shipping."

After Bao Yugang's interview was reported, it increased Dong Haoyun's reputation and allowed more people to learn more about Dong Haoyun's life.

Zhao Xicheng from American Fumao Group, his wife and eldest daughter Zhao Xiaolan also attended Dong Haoyun's funeral today.

Zhao Xicheng has achieved today's development. Apart from his own efforts, it is also inseparable from Dong Haoyun's help to his family. The Dong family can be said to be the benefactors of their Zhao family.

This time, after receiving the news of Dong Haoyun's death, Zhao Xicheng immediately brought his wife and his eldest daughter to Xiangjiang to pay homage to Dong Haoyun, and secondly, he also came to comfort Dong Haoyun's family to see if there was anything he could do to help. of.

After dealing with Dong Haoyun's funeral, Zhao Xicheng's family also discussed some matters with them at Dong's residence.

Zhao Xicheng said to Dong Chee-hwa: "You don't have to worry about the cooperation between our two groups, we will still maintain the cooperation as in your father's time."

Tung Chee-hwa began to take charge of some affairs of the group slowly in 79, so he naturally had a better understanding of the business of the group. The cooperation between Eastern Shipping Group and Foremost Group can bring a lot of profits to Eastern Shipping every year.

Dong Chee-hwa is very happy that Zhao Xicheng is willing to continue the previous cooperation.

He said to him, "Uncle Zhao, thank you for continuing to cooperate with us at this time."

"You don't have to be polite with me. Without Haoyun, I, Zhao Xicheng, would not be where I am today. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can contact me at any time. If I can help, I will do my best to help you." Zhao Xicheng said.

Dong Chee-hwa also knew that Fu Mao Group was not having a good time at this time. This time, the shipping industry of the whole world was affected, even Fu Mao Group located in the United States was still affected.

Dong Jianhua said: "Uncle Zhao, if there is a need, I will ask you for help."

Thinking of the current situation in Xiangjiang and the shipping industry, Zhao Xicheng said to Dong Jianhua: "Jianhua, you are also aware of the current situation in the shipping industry. I am not optimistic about the development of the shipping industry in the future. I believe that this view is not limited to me. Alone, there are many people in Xiangjiang who have such thoughts, you still have to prepare yourself."

How could Dong Chee-hwa not be aware of the situation here? Li Guangyu, Bao Yugang, and Cao Wenjin were all selling off their ships and turning to the real estate industry, sending a signal to the outside world that they were not optimistic about the future development of shipping.

It's just that my father is full of confidence in the future shipping industry, not only has no intention of reducing, but has increased the purchase of ships, resulting in the group's current high debt.

He is also very confused about the future development of shipping. He doesn't know whether he should stick to his father's opinion and continue to maintain the current fleet, or follow in the footsteps of Li Guangyu and others to sell off his ships.
