Poor boy marries billionaire's daughter and changes his fate, turns down Li Ka-shing's invitation, and Trump speaks on his behalf

When a person has no money, everyone looks down on him, and even his own relatives are no exception.

Among Hong Kong's tycoons, the three best-performing ones of Chaoshan origin, ranked by era, are Liao Baoshan, Lim Por-yen and Li Ka-shing. These three famous business giants in Hong Kong, although all fellow Chaoshan natives, saw the Lim Por-yen family and the Li Ka-shing family have a very tense relationship.

In fact, the reason for the tension between the two families is very simple. When Lim Por-yen was critically ill, he wanted to invite Li Ka-shing to be a pallbearer. The two were fellow Chaoshan natives, and in business Lim Por-yen was Li Ka-shing's senior. Lim Por-yen wanted to go out in style, and having Li Ka-shing serve as a pallbearer at his coffin would also be a good way to put it. Li Ka-shing refused outright, because his friendship with Lim Por-yen was not that deep.

Because of Li Ka-shing's refusal, the Lim family and the Li family later had no contact at all for many years. Before Li Ka-shing prepared his son Victor Li to take over, he had invited many well-known domestic businessmen to a gathering, and naturally the Lim family also refused. The person who directly refused Li Ka-shing was Terry Gou, and his excuse was very reasonable, because he had to go to Beijing to give a speech. Everyone would wonder why Terry Gou would refuse Li Ka-shing. In fact, Terry Gou is Lim Por-yen's son-in-law!

In 1971, Terry Gou was still a poor boy with empty pockets, and no one thought he would amount to anything. But just then, Terry Gou happened to meet Lin Shuru. It is said that Terry Gou had actually long known that Lin Shuru was the daughter of billionaire Lim Por-yen, so he launched an enthusiastic pursuit, and Lin Shuru also very much liked the handsome and tall Terry Gou. Their love was opposed by Lim Por-yen, who temporarily severed his father-daughter relationship with Lin Shuru.

After Terry Gou and Lin Shuru married, the two lived in Taiwan. However, after his business failed, Terry Gou was so poor that he could not even afford his child's formula money. Lin Shuru returned to Hong Kong and tearfully begged her father to give money to support Terry Gou. After that, Terry Gou's business grew bigger and bigger, and he became the richest man in Taiwan. In the very year Terry Gou became the richest man, Lin Shuru passed away due to illness and did not get to see her husband's success.

In 2017, Terry Gou's Hon Hai Group had revenue of 135.1 billion US dollars, while Li Ka-shing's CK Hutchison had revenue of only 33.4 billion US dollars, not even a fraction of Terry Gou's, which could also be considered as venting some anger for his father-in-law. Today's Terry Gou is a guest of Trump, who invited Terry Gou to build factories in the United States and spoke on his behalf, helping to solve the employment problem of the American population.

Terry Gou could achieve today's success, he really does have some skills!
