However, because everyone is busy taking over the position of the world's No. [-] ship king after the contract ship king left, they wantonly merged and expanded their own fleet.

Because the Dong family is supported by the old ship king Dong, the bank believes in the ability of the old ship king Dong, so they have been lending money to the Dong family, and continue to promote the big ship of the Dong family to enter the world's ship king throne.

It's a pity that manpower is outnumbered by days.

As the old man's health is getting worse and worse, although Mr. Dong is capable and not young, in terms of prestige, he still can't compare with the old Dong Chuanwang's decades of prestige.

I remember that the later generations of the Dong family owed a huge debt of more than 200 billion Hong Kong dollars. The amount of this debt has almost caught up with half of the property disclosed by the Bao family when the charter king passed away.

The next few years will be the saddest days for the Dong family, and also for Mr. Dong.

In those days, it was not until [-], when the Dong family fleet was facing bankruptcy and liquidation, that with Mr. Dong's efforts, they received a capital injection from Huo Daheng, and finally got out of the predicament.

Huo Daheng's reputation is very famous. After receiving Huo Daheng's support, Mr. Dong immediately announced the reorganization of the company, and then took advantage of the situation to borrow [-] million US dollars from several banks.

One capital injection and one loan raised a total of more than 20 billion Hong Kong dollars in working capital for the Dong family. (In [-], the exchange rate of Hong Kong dollars to U.S. dollars was fixed at one to seven.)

After obtaining more than 20 billion Hong Kong dollars in working capital, Dong Gongzi finally breathed a sigh of relief and reorganized the company. Although the Dong family lost control in the new reorganized company, Dong Gongzi changed from a boss to an employee.

But with the reorganization of the company, the Dong family also got rid of the bankruptcy situation in one fell swoop, and kept the shipping company left by the old ship king Dong.

Until the early 90s, the world shipping crisis slowed down, and Dong's fleet began to make a profit.

Perhaps it is God's favor, behind the Xiangjiang River, the inland has spent a full ten years, finally built the infrastructure, and officially entered the second stage of reform and opening up.

With the further opening of the inland, the world's shipping industry has ushered in a new opportunity, shipping has recovered, and the inland economy has begun to return to the historical track.

Until the beginning of the 21st century, the Dong family had a debt of 200 billion Hong Kong dollars, and their net assets soared to [-] million U.S. dollars.

Mr. Dong spent nearly ten years to bring the debt-laden family business back to life and revitalize it. This kind of experience is rare in the history of Xiangjiang.

After all, 200 billion Hong Kong dollars is not 200 yuan. How many people are scared to death when they hear this figure. How can they even think about saving the family business.

When Xiangjiang returned in [-], when everyone believed that Dong Gongzi, who had saved the family business, would continue to inherit the glory of his ancestors and continue to march towards the world's ship king, Dong Gongzi made another decision that surprised everyone.

A business tycoon who gave up his title of ship king and stepped into the political arena is something that many people did not expect.

What is even more surprising to countless people is that after Mr. Dong stepped into the political arena, he reached the peak in one step without any obstacles.

It is no exaggeration to say that Mr. Dong sitting in front of Yang Chen at the moment is a legend, a living legend, and his experience is more talked about than his parents' generation.

Mr. Dong alone almost covered up the brilliance of all Xiangjiang's second-generation children, even Li Chaoren's two sons were not as good.

When people in later generations mentioned the second-generation children of Xiangjiang, most of them would mention that Li Chaoren would train his sons, etc., and kept them by his side since he was a child. He also took his two sons to attend meetings and so on.

Compared with Li Chaoren's two sons, Dong Gongzi is not so high-profile. The old Dong Chuanwang has a total of five children. As the eldest son, Dong Gongzi is the most valued by the old Dong Chuanwang.

Young Master Dong's younger brothers and sisters studied in private aristocratic schools, while Dong Gongzi was sent to public schools by the old Dong Chuan Wang.

The studious Mr. Dong was admitted to the Department of Mechanical Engineering of the University of Liverpool at the age of 13. During his stay at the University of Liverpool, just as the Second Middle East War broke out, the fleet of the old Dong Chuanwang expanded rapidly.

The Dong family is the second largest shipping tycoon family in Xiangjiang after the chartered ship tycoon, with a family fortune of hundreds of millions. Among the second generation, Mr. Dong definitely belongs to the top group.

With a family fortune of billions, the old Dong Chuanwang still requires his son to live a simple life, just like ordinary international students, commuting between campus and places of residence by bus or bicycle, and concentrate on his studies.

According to the normal thinking of Chinese parents, this kind of tempering is almost enough. When Dong Gongzi finishes his studies, he should come back and put it by his side to train him.

However, the old Dong Chuanwang once again subverted everyone's cognition. After Mr. Dong graduated from university, the old Dong Chuanwang asked his son to go to General Motors of the United States to be a basic-level mechanical worker.

Faced with this kind of training model, if he was replaced by an ordinary second-generation son, he would probably quit long ago. The family has hundreds of millions of property, but he would not let his son enjoy it.

Even ordinary college students have the opportunity to sit in an office with an air conditioner after graduation, and Mr. Dong has to be an ordinary mechanic.

Let me ask, is this the treatment a son of a ship tycoon should have?

However, Mr. Dong is also very good. Not only did he go to work in General Motors according to his father's requirements, but the most terrible thing is that Mr. Dong seems to be addicted to being a worker, and he has been working for several years.

Good guy, Mr. Dong's behavior has directly refreshed the world view of the second generation of Xiangjiang.

Thinking of Mr. Dong's experiences, Yang Chen couldn't help admiring him. Perhaps only those who have endured hardship since childhood can still not be overwhelmed by the pressure from all sides when facing difficulties.

It is often said that wealth cannot last for three generations, and this sentence is true.

Especially in the new century, the world is changing with each passing day. Today, you may still be number one in the industry, but tomorrow you may be overtaken by others, and even in a blink of an eye, the industry is facing elimination.

For a century-old business, 100 years is enough to verify three generations of a family. If you want to be rich for three generations, then you must let your family business live for 100 years.

However, looking at the world, how many companies can survive a century?Looking at all companies in the world, what percentage of these companies are companies that have been around for hundreds of years?

If Mr. Dong hadn't been honed by the old Dong Chuanwang since he was a child, no one except Mr. Dong would be able to bear the mountainous pressure in the crisis that the Dong family would face next.

Xiangjiang has been a port for hundreds of years, and many famous and prosperous families have disappeared in the torrent of history. The old replaced the new, and the new replaced the old. In the end, the real estate developers remained.

And like the Dong family, most of the families that don't rely on real estate are wiped out.

Chapter 468 Huge Risks in the Shipping Industry

"Sigh..." Seeing Mr. Dong and Huo Zhenting leave, Yang Chen couldn't help but sigh.

"What's wrong? Chen" Seeing Yang Chen's inexplicable sigh, Xue Yufei looked at him suspiciously.

He Chaoqiong, who was eating at the side, also raised his head, with the word puzzled written all over his face.

Yang Chen withdrew his gaze, and couldn't help asking the two girls: "What do you think of Mr. Dong?"

"..."

He Chaoqiong stuck out his tongue, tilted his head, and said perfunctorily: "It's okay, but I'm a little older and not as handsome as you!"

Yang Chen reached out and pinched He Chaoqiong's nose, then turned to look at Xue Yufei, as if he wanted to hear her opinion.

Seeing Yang Chen looking at her, Xue Yufei thought for a while, couldn't help but frowned, and said in a low voice, "Chen, aren't you trying to get the Dong family's attention?"

"What are you thinking about?" Yang Chen rolled his eyes, flicked Xue Yufei's forehead angrily, and was speechless about Xue Yufei's brain opening.

In other words, I don't know when I became so evil in the hearts of the two women.

Could it be that the saying that capitalists are black-hearted? With the sharp increase in his capital, he cannibalize people without spit out their bones.Already showed?

Yang Chen touched it, and couldn't help but start to doubt it.

He Chaoqiong hugged Yang Chen's arm, and said delicately: "Ah Chen, just tell us directly, why did you sigh just now?"

"I'm worried about that Mr. Dong. The Dong family is now standing on the edge of a cliff. Once the old Mr. Dong Chuanwang dies that day, if Mr. Dong can't withstand the pressure, the Dong family may be afraid."

Speaking of this, Yang Chen immediately stopped. If Daheng Huo hadn't stepped forward to face the crisis of the Dong family in his previous life, even if Mr. Dong had the ability to defy the sky, he would not be able to survive it.

In this life, with his butterfly entering, who knows what it will turn into in the end.
