Qiu Degen, the king of cinemas, married his sister after her death and gave birth to eight children. What was her life like in her later years?

Some time ago, there was an online buzzword "Don't mention money, it hurts feelings". It's a joke, but it's true. Especially in the big family, the drama of brothers fighting each other emerges endlessly. In the final analysis, it is only for the word "benefit".

Hong Kong tycoon Qiu Degen started from scratch and married his sister-in-law Qiu after his wife Qiu died. Although both wives are good wives and mothers, Qiu is not accepted by his ex-wife's children because of his special status.

As a result, eight children went camping and ignored their elderly father. Qiu Degen suffered from Alzheimer's disease in his later years and died miserably.

Self-made Shanghai guy

Qiu Degen, 1924, from Shanghai. In that war-torn era, Qiu Degen's family business was sluggish, so he dropped out of junior high school to work.

He has done many jobs, such as washing dishes and carpentry ... 15 years old, and was recruited as a coolie by the cinema. Due to hard work, he was gradually promoted to manager. After working for nearly ten years, he saved a lot of money. He put all his money into building a small printing factory.

Qiu Degen has always had a good heart. She is Pei.

Pei's father runs a rice shop, and his social status is beyond Qiu Degen's reach. Pei is well-off, good-looking and a college student. At that time, Pei's family was a model of a hundred women asking for help. In Qiu Degen's mind, Pei is a lofty immortal, but he is just a mortal who wants the immortal to have mercy.

It is simply that Qiu Degen is not willing to be ordinary, so he built a printing factory to deserve Pei Qiujin. Pei's father thinks that this young man has a bright future and is willing to entrust his daughter to him.

Qiu Pei and his wife got married with the blessing of their parents. They are a natural couple. For Qiu Degen at that time, this was probably the luckiest thing in his life.

After Qiu Pei got married, they felt that the film market had great potential, so they sold the printing house and rented a cinema.

Although it is either rich or expensive, it is also a matter of food and clothing. However, after several years of development, the film market has reached saturation, and Qiu Degen's career has reached a bottleneck, making it difficult to develop further.

After the national liberation from 65438 to 0949, Hong Kong became a potential stock for development, and many businessmen went to Hong Kong to look for business opportunities.

Qiu Degen also took a fancy to this "big cake" in Hong Kong, gave up the rented cinema and came to Hong Kong with pregnant Pei. Qiu Degen is advertising slides in a friend's company. While working, he inspected the Hong Kong market.

Qiu Degen still focuses on the film market. After all, movies were extravagant at that time, and there were not many rich people in Hong Kong who had money and leisure.

There are many cinemas in busy areas, and the rent is high. The rent of the new film is high, and Qiu Degen simply can't afford it. Even if he rents a cinema, but the attendance rate of a movie is not high, he will lose everything.

Just when he was sad, Pei gave him an idea and turned his attention to the rural market.

This is simply another village with a bright future. Many businessmen only pay attention to the urban market, ignoring the rural market with a huge population base. Most importantly, you can show old movies in the countryside, and the rent of old movies is only one yuan a day. In this way, Qiu Degen bought the Tsuen Wan Theatre in New Territories, and the film was really popular.

Qiu Degen made a fortune and opened more than a dozen cinemas one after another, becoming a veritable "cinema king".

After ten years of capital accumulation, he founded the Far East Bank, which was later the Far East Bank. As a big boss, Qiu Degen's position is far from perfect.

He always keeps a straight face in order to impress employees with his unsmiling face and dignity. Friends nicknamed him "a self-made Shanghainese".

The wife behind a successful man

Qiu Degen's greatest support for success is his wife Pei Qiu Jin, who always supports her husband's decision unconditionally, so he can be fearless in business.

Husband and wife are one. He runs a cinema, she manages cinema accounts, he creates a money house, and she works as a cashier in the money house. No matter what Qiu Degen does, Pei Qiu Jin can always keep up with him.

Not only that, Pei Qiujin has to teach his children and do housework. Therefore, Qiu Degen doesn't have to worry about his family, just think about how to make his family's life better.

As Qiu Degen's wife, Pei Qiujin had to accompany him to various social occasions.

Her words and deeds represent her husband, and she can't relax in her communication, for fear of losing Qiu Degen's face. Qiu Degen saw what Pei Qiujin had done and kept it in mind. He lamented more than once: What else can a wife ask for?

Later, Qiu Degen was dissatisfied with the film industry. The couple bought a pear garden and planned to build a playground. Their future is bright.

1964, Qiu Degen's partner invited him to attend the Asian Film Festival in Taiwan Province Province, and he couldn't get away, so Pei went instead. Without thinking about it, Pei's departure became an eternal separation between heaven and man. The plane crashed, killing all passengers and crew.

Get married for the second time after sorrow.

Qiu Degen was deeply saddened by Pei's death and felt that the whole person's spirit had been taken away. He is in no mood to work, let alone take care of his five children. In his autobiography written in his later years, he recorded in detail that he spent at least half a year in a daze every day after his wife died, and I don't know which night.

Pei Qiu Jin's sister, Pei Jin Lan, stood up at this moment. She took good care of the children and comforted her sad brother-in-law.

1965 the far east bank fell into crisis because of Qiu degen's careless operation, so he had to cheer up. When Qiu Degen was busy with his work, Pei Jinlan was always with him.

The children are very grateful to their aunt for her contribution, but they can't accept the news that their father is going to marry her.

It is hard for people to imagine that Qiu Degen, who was driven crazy for more than half a year because of Pei's death, could quickly empathize with his sister-in-law. The outside world has been talking about this. Maybe Qiu Degen and Pei are in trouble, maybe he just wants to find a good wife and mother.

No matter how others guess, the wedding will be held as scheduled in July. Because Qiu Degen put all his eggs in one basket, all five children left him, especially after he gave birth to three sons with Pei Jinlan, they didn't even want to go home.

After the marriage, Qiu Degen in by going up one flight of stairs set up "Asia Satellite TV" and launched one TV series after another.

Qiu Degen made a fortune and became a super rich man. It can be said that Qiu Degen's career can achieve such great achievements without the help of his two wives.

Lonely in old age, no one to take care of.

Qiu Degen accumulated property of 4 billion in his life. In the 1970s, he left all his industries to his eight children. He thinks he is equal, but children don't think so.

In his later years, when he was in power, the scenes of brothers fighting came out one after another. They just want to compete for power and interests, ignoring their father and Alzheimer's disease.

In 20 15, Qiu Degen fainted at home. When the servant found that he had been taken to the hospital for treatment, he had missed the rescue time. In the end, he didn't leave any last words and didn't see the children happy.

Wealth has touched people's hearts since ancient times. Qiu Degen's death did not stop the struggle for power and profit between the two sides, but it intensified.

In the face of power and huge enterprises, brothers will still fight for it, let alone half brothers. However, Qiu Degen, who once dominated the market and had a brilliant career, was neglected in his later years, which is embarrassing.
