The birth of the Hong Kong Island family

Chapter 418 [Unforgettable Sutra]

In a manor in New York, Lin Zhichao, Audrey Hepburn and Lin Ruidong visited and received warm hospitality from the Rockefeller family.

Entertaining them were representatives of the third generation of the Rockefeller family: Lawrence Rockefeller and Davis Rockefeller. The former was the father of venture capital on Wall Street, and the latter was the financial steward of the Rockefeller family, the most outstanding of the third generation.

In addition, there were also fourth and fifth generation members of the Rockefeller family, and almost a dozen people attended the dinner.

"Mr. Lin, Miss Audrey, you two have made a big splash in the United States recently. The biggest attacker of commercial real estate in New York and the amazing electronic product 'Atari 2600' are all from your companies. Handwriting." Lawrence said with a smile.

Davis on the side could not help but show an expression of admiration.

Whether it is true or false is unknown.

Lin Zhichao said modestly: "Everything is still unknown, and time will be needed to test whether it will succeed. Both of them are leaders of the Rockefeller family. We are not qualified to talk about business achievements in front of you."

Lawrence immediately said: "You are definitely qualified! Mr. Lin started from scratch and is a hero like our ancestors. His fleet surpasses the Soviet Union and the United Kingdom, and is second only to the United States and Japan. Your achievements in the field of shipping are unprecedented in history. "

The more this happened, the more cautious Lin Zhichao became. He was not worried that the Rockefeller family could deceive him. After all, Lin Zhichao has too many trump cards. If a certain industry is targeted, it will have no impact on the overall situation. What's more, Lin Zhichao believes that even if these big families have the right to "unplug the network cable", they have absolutely no ability to change major history.

His cautiousness was due to his cautious personality and his concern that Audrey's lineage would be targeted.

Lin Zhichao said politely: "I am just the owner of the oil tanker leasing business and do not actually control shipping."

Later, Lawrence and Davis praised Audrey Hepburn, calling her a 'legendary woman'.

Seeing this, Lin Zhichao changed the topic: "It is said that the Rockefeller family is not only the largest family in the United States, but also the most united family. At this point, I am very curious and wonder if you have anything to teach me. The truth?"

Lawrence and Davis suddenly became happy. This was a real reaction, not a hypocritical reaction just now. Lin Zhichao could still observe the subtleties.

They were happy because they were proud of it.

Lawrence said: "Our grandfather passed most of the property to our father. Our father passed the wealth to our mother, children and grandchildren through a series of trusts. Of course, the most important one is the family office."

This was an exchange between two wealthy families. Lin Zhichao humbly consulted trusts and family offices, showing a strong sense of learning.

The most important content of this kind of communication between families is the 'inheritance issue'. Some 'family offices' in later generations even sent members to each other as supervisors.

During this period, Davis expressed his willingness to provide help. Lin Zhichao did not refuse, but he also did not agree.

In fact, it is of course impossible for such a family to provide help to his bank trust and family office.

Lin Zhichao believes that it will be safest for trusts and family offices to be established in Hong Kong, Singapore, and Switzerland in the future.

On the other side, Lin Ruidong was also chatting with everyone. One of the girls, who was only 20 years old, seemed particularly proactive. She was Megan Rockefeller, the fourth generation of the Rockefeller family and the youngest daughter of Davis Rockefeller. .

Davis Rockefeller did not give birth to this daughter until he was forty years old, and he doted on this little daughter very much.

"Ryan, I also graduated from Harvard University, but I'm just a medical student!" Looking at the handsome Lin Ruidong, Megan took the initiative to introduce him.

Inheriting the 'appearance' of Lin Zhichao and Audrey, Lin Ruidong should be the most handsome person in the family. Although there is no ugly person in the Lin family, Lin Ruidong is extremely handsome. This is why he can always arouse the children's enthusiasm to the maximum extent when he is the 'host' of the Cabbage Patch Dolls centralized adoption event.

"It's an honor to meet you. I am a graduate of the business school. You are a medical student, which is really admirable. As far as I know, the Rockefeller family's medical achievements and charity are eye-catching." Lin Ruidong is a gentleman. said.

The surrounding Rockefeller family members saw the little princess chatting with Lin Ruidong and took the initiative to withdraw.

As the eldest son of Audrey Hepburn, Ryan Hepburn is fully qualified to be friends with the little princess.

Meghan was very curious about the Cabbage Patch Dolls. She also praised Audrey Hepburn as a "beautiful angel" and Barbie accompanied her in her childhood.

The two of them were chatting like this, very speculative.

"I think Cabbage Patch Dolls are also a kind of medicine, that is, mental therapy. In the past year, the trend of "family crisis" has swept across American society. There are more and more broken families. The divorce of parents has caused psychological trauma to children. It also makes the parent who cannot raise the children lose their emotional sustenance. In order to fill the emotional gap in this aspect, we came up with this idea."

"So, this Cabbage Patch Doll was originally intended for adults?"

Megan cares.

Lin Ruidong nodded and said, "That's true, but now it seems that the children are even crazier!"

Meghan asked again: "Your mother is one of the most famous actresses in Hollywood. Do you have any artistic hobbies?"

Lin Ruidong nodded and said, "I know how to do jazz dance!"

The lively chat between the two also attracted the attention of adults.

Although Lin Zhichao is worried about some issues, he has always been relatively open-minded about his children's marriage. He is worried that it will be counterproductive.

The dinner that day was overall very meaningful. Lin Zhichao learned a lot from the Rockefeller family about philanthropy, family inheritance, and training of future generations.

After the family of three left.

Davis said, “He’s awesome!”

Lawrence said: "Yes! You can make a Hollywood female star willing to be his lover and raise excellent offspring; you can also make a Hollywood female star become a top entrepreneur and enjoy the highly influential Western dream. Lover; how can such a person not be called a 'legend'!"

The key point is that some of these people can't understand why Audrey Hepburn still follows Lin Zhichao with her current status and wealth.

Davis said: "I think the two of them don't seem to communicate much, and they are very careful about their distance. Maybe they have broken up long ago. After all, it is impossible for such an excellent woman to follow a man like this!"

Lawrence was stunned for a moment, then recalled and said, "It seems so! Maybe, the only bond between the two is their son."

Davis said: "Anyway, that Ryan Hepburn is really not simple! He is a very capable young man."

Lawrence smiled and said: "Are you going to allow Meghan to have contact with him and what will happen?"

Davis said: "If it's possible, why not!"

With these six months, Lin Ruidong's excellence has been completely proven.

Lawrence said: "We still hope to invest in Audrey. Their Atari Electronics company has achieved great success."

Davis said: "There are some difficulties. The market value of Audrey Company is too high. Secondly, there is no shortage of money. What's more, it can be seen just now that the two of them are a little wary of us."

It turned out that the Rockefeller family already had a sense of crisis as the family began to decline (losing its oil business), especially the Morgan family who was eyeing it. Therefore, facing the newly promoted Audrey family and Lin Zhichao family (entering into New York commercial real estate), they have a desire to win over.

But it is obvious that Lin Zhichao is very convenient for these big families.

Back home in New York.

Lin Zhichao immediately held a secret meeting with Audrey Hepburn and Lin Ruidong.

"For these big families, we must both cooperate and be wary. Of course, we must also have confidence and don't have to be afraid of them!"

Audrey Hepburn said: "With my influence, there is no need to worry about their conspiracy!"

She is very confident, she has dual nationality of the United Kingdom and the United States, and she has great visibility and popularity.

Lin Zhichao said: "That's not enough! In this way, you can introduce Ruidong to Reagan later. From now on, our family will support Reagan and be the most solid supporter."

Audrey Hepburn asked: "Is Reagan too old?"

old age?

Aren’t there senior citizens behind their president? Sometimes it's Alzheimer's disease.

Lin Zhichao said with a smile: "Reagan has a very contagious charisma. He will definitely be the next president of the United States. I can't make a mistake. Have you forgotten that I supported Kennedy back then!"

Audrey Hepburn nodded immediately and said, "Yes, I remember!"

In addition to getting Audrey Hepburn to support Reagan, the next step is to continue to increase his influence.

Lin Zhichao then said to Lin Ruidong: "Continue to work hard in the first half of next year, and see if I can return to Audrey's company in the second half of the year."

Lin Ruidong was shocked and immediately said: "Yes, I will definitely work hard!"

Lin Zhichao patted him on the shoulder to show encouragement. With a small gesture, Lin Ruidong was already encouraged.

Just after returning to Hong Kong, something big happened to the Lin family. The second son, Lin Ruijiang, made a female employee of the Shangri-La Hotel named "Lu Haiyan" pregnant.

So at Villa No. 79 in Deep Water Bay, Lin Ruijiang is facing three trials.

Tang Caiyun was so angry that she slapped her second son on the back of the head, which frightened Lin Ruijiang so much that he didn't even dare to speak out. Maybe Lin Ruijiang is not afraid of Lin Zhichao, but she is definitely afraid of her biological mother.

"A careless guy!"

Lin Zhichao immediately stepped forward, took Tang Caiyun's hand, and said, "Don't worry, let's see how the matter is handled first, and then we'll talk about it when Xin'er comes."

Luo Huijun also quickly comforted her mother-in-law and said, "Mother-in-law, don't worry. Ruijiang is also a man. It's normal to have a girlfriend. Maybe things can develop in a good direction."

Lin Ruihuan accompanied his younger brother without saying a word, as if he was also the one who made the mistake.

Later, Lin Zhichao sat on the sofa and began to interrogate this "uneasy" son.

Essentially, Lin Ruijiang has no problem and is much better than Lin Zhichao in this aspect.

He knew that this second son was more 'romantic', but he had no problem having a girlfriend as a normal person. After all, as the second son of the Lin family, girls were always coming to his door, so even if he had to change his girlfriend every three months, There is no problem either.

But now that someone else is pregnant, it’s very complicated!

"What are you going to do?"

Hearing his father's question, Lin Ruijiang said with his true heart: "She can have a baby if she wants. I'm almost 25 years old, so having a child is nothing!"

In his opinion, if he has children, he will not be looked down upon in the future.

But he doesn't want to step into the marriage grave too early. Once he gets married, if he dares to mess around, it will probably be a big problem.

Tang Caiyun reacted fiercely and said, "Then will you marry her or not?"

Lin Ruijiang said quickly: "Don't marry!"

Tang Caiyun was so angry that she almost stood up and went to deal with her son, but Lin Zhichao stopped her.

"Don't worry, let's get to know this girl first!"

After a while, Lin Xiner hurriedly arrived at Villa No. 79 in Deep Water Bay.

"Brother, sister-in-law, I have inquired about this girl's situation. This girl is not simple!"

To put it simply, this Lu Haiyan is pretty and works as a staff member in the hotel's administrative department. She has just been employed for more than a year. As for this pregnancy, it is uncertain whether it was Lin Ruijiang or Lu Haiyan who took the initiative.

But for Lin Zhichao, this Lu Haiyan had to have a high school diploma, and her family background was incomplete. What's more, this sudden incident made Lin Zhichao cautious.

There is no problem with high school culture, but at least you have to have a normal family. Single-parent families make people very uneasy. The most important thing is that the sudden pregnancy made Lin Zhichao wary.

Will it affect the family if such a daughter-in-law marries in?

"You don't want to marry, what's the reason?" He still communicated patiently.

"I always feel that she likes our family's power and money. She is more powerful!" Lin Ruijiang said hesitantly.

"You think so. What do you think will happen to the children she raises? Will they like a father like you? Growing up in such a family environment is unfortunate in itself." Lin Zhichao asked.

Lin Ruijiang was stunned. He originally thought that after he had a child, his parents would not care about him or despise him.

"Communicate with her carefully and say that if she aborts the child, she can get 3 million Hong Kong dollars. If she is not willing, our family will not admit it and she will get nothing. This is the solution I give you. If you have a better Yes, you can tell it!"

Lin Ruijiang said without hesitation: "I asked her to beat the child, but I found that I didn't really like her!"

That’s pretty much it!

Of course, if the girl insists on her own ideas, then the Lin family will not recognize this illegitimate child. If Lin Ruijiang feels ashamed, that is his own business, but Lin Zhichao will not admit it.

Finally, Lin Zhichao warned Lin Ruijiang: "I don't care what your attitude is emotionally, but as long as you want to inherit my career, you have to follow my rules. You can have a girlfriend, but don't do this kind of thing , you must be stable and stable after your marriage. To be honest, we have a father-son relationship, but I am afraid of a son like you!"

Tang Caiyun was so anxious that she couldn't help crying!

The reason why my husband is afraid of this son is simply because he doesn’t want to estrange the relationship between father and son. And this son has been relatively out of touch since he was a child. He originally thought it wouldn’t be a big deal, but when he grew up, he had girlfriends one after another, and this time he was even higher. This kind of thing.

Lin Ruijiang knew the seriousness of the matter this time, especially when his mother cried to tears, and immediately knelt down.

"Dad, Mom, I promise this is the last time, and I will be more careful in the future! Mom, stop crying!"

Tang Caiyun was lying in Lin Zhichao's arms, crying even harder!

In her opinion, this is a failure to educate her children.

Later, Lin Zhichao supported Tang Caiyun and walked upstairs to comfort his wife.

He actually didn't care very much. He just warned Lin Ruijiang today.

Every family has its own problems. Overall, Lin Ruijiang is very good. He graduated from Stanford University and is very diligent in his work. Sometimes he works overtime with his subordinates. However, it is said that he has a 'bad temper' and would scold his subordinates.

But Lin Zhichao also has this "bad temper". If some of his subordinates don't wake him up by scolding him, he doesn't know how to work at all. If you don't want to scold someone, you won't promote them.

Moreover, Lin Zhichao must scold the right person. If he scolds the wrong person, he will even apologize in person. If the scolding is correct, then you should change. If you don’t change despite repeated admonishment, then you are doomed.

Go back upstairs.

Lin Zhichao immediately comforted Tang Caiyun: "Okay, wife, the matter is not serious! Ruijiang is still very smart and hard-working. The small flaws have not affected my opinion of him at all." As he said this, he wiped away Tang Caiyun's tears. .

This woman has paid the most for this family, there is no doubt about it. In order to allow Lin Zhichao to go abroad for official duties with peace of mind, she learned her business skills to a high level.

While taking care of the family, she learned about real estate and established good relationships with her subordinates, just to reassure Lin Zhichao that she was behind the scenes.

"Husband, I don't think Rui Jiang is not good enough, I just think you need to be careful and cautious in front of him. This is my fault." Tang Caiyun said truthfully.

She could see that her husband was 'giving in' to his son at all times because he was afraid of arousing his son's rebellion. Of course, there may be husbands who also like beautiful girls, so they dare not take drastic measures in this regard.

"It's not that we're being careful, it's just that the child is older and it's not good for us to scold him again! But after today's incident, I believe Ruijiang can learn a lesson and don't cause such trouble next time."

"It's so embarrassing, crying in front of the children."

"No shame, the thread is in the hands of a loving mother, and the clothes are on the body of a wanderer. You are a loving mother, and you can be strong and gentle at the same time. It's normal."

When Tang Caiyun appeared in front of everyone again, Lin Ruijiang stood next to her cautiously, fearing that his mother would continue to be sad. It is true that he admires his father, but he can experience the greatness of his mother even more, so her mother is his biggest weakness.

He vowed in his heart that after this time, he would settle down, get married and have children safely, and work towards the goal his father gave him - to achieve certain achievements in the field of science and technology.
