Recently, Josie Ho, the "most rebellious" daughter of gambling king Stanley Ho, has once again become the focus of netizens' attention.

The reason is very simple. It turns out that she recently participated in a Taiwanese variety show, in which she actually disclosed the amount of inheritance she received.

Although the figure she disclosed was not accurate, she only admitted that her share of the inheritance was HK$10 billion, and repeatedly stressed that it was still far from HK$20 billion.

But this number is still a huge shock to netizens. After all, 10 billion Hong Kong dollars is equivalent to 9.1 billion yuan, which is an astronomical figure for ordinary people.

As expected, as the most rebellious daughter of the gambling king, Josie Ho did not take over the family business at all, but was able to obtain a legacy of 9.1 billion. It was a complete "win without any effort"!

However, all netizens who pay attention to Josie Ho know that she is famous for saying whatever she wants. She had already answered the issue of inheritance distribution that the outside world is most concerned about when she was interviewed by Lu Yu earlier.

She said that she was the one who received the least inheritance among all the children of the gambling king because she did not work in the family business and contributed the least to the family. She felt that she should get the least.

This time when she participated in a Taiwanese variety show, she reiterated this point, saying that although she received 10 billion Hong Kong dollars, her share of the inheritance was less than that of her sisters and brothers.

However, judging from the smile on her face, she is still very satisfied with her current situation. At least she can work in the entertainment industry with peace of mind without being involved in various family disputes.

We all know that the gambling king has four wives. Since the eldest son of the first wife, Ho Yau-Kwong, died in a car accident in 1981, the power center of the gambling king's family has been tilting towards the second wife.

This is also why many netizens, after seeing that Josie Ho was able to be herself after the death of the gambling king and continue to pursue her movie dream in the entertainment industry, all sighed that she had a good sister.

Because Josie Ho is the child of the second wife, her elder sister, Pansy Ho, is not only the eldest sister of the second wife, but also the "eldest sister" of the entire family, and now manages the most important industry of the Ho family.

Pansy Ho now not only manages two important companies of the Ho family, Shun Tak and MGM, but also the other children of the second wife, namely her two younger sisters, Pansy Ho and Maisy Ho, and her only younger brother, Chiu Lung Ho, all hold important positions in the family business.

For example, Pansy Ho and Angela Ho hold the power in STDM. Judging from the personnel changes in STDM in the past two years, the power of the second wife is getting stronger, while the power of the fourth wife has basically disappeared.

As for Lawrence Ho, although as the eldest son of the second wife, his power does not seem to be as great as that of his sister Pansy Ho, his strength should not be underestimated.

Because he controls another important company in the family business, namely Melco Group, and his wife is the daughter of Vitasoy, the influence of his wife's family can help him a lot.

This means that Lawrence Ho is definitely among the top few in the Ho family's strength ranking. In the eyes of netizens, it is amazing that Josie Ho can look so relaxed and contented.

She doesn't have to manage the family business at all and can only focus on developing her own interests and hobbies, all thanks to her several capable sisters and brothers.

However, we cannot use this to deny the strength of the third and fourth rooms. We all know that after the death of the second wife, Lan Qiongying, the outside world has always been paying attention to the third wife, Chen Wanzhen, and the fourth wife, Liang Anqi.

Since Angela Leong often appears on the hot search list and Pansy Ho often pulls her to the C position, many people think that the influence of the third room is completely useless and can be ignored.

But in fact, the third wife, Chen Wanzhen, is said to be a very powerful person. After all, she transformed herself from a caregiver to the position of the third wife of the gambling king, and she has been in this position for decades.

She is definitely capable, but her children are somewhat low-key compared to the second and fourth wives. Only He Chaolian is involved in both the entertainment industry and business. In addition to managing hotels and some restaurants, she has also participated in many variety shows.

As for her elder sister, Pansy Ho, and her twin brother, Youqi Ho, they are relatively low-key. The outside world is not very clear about what specific positions they hold in the family business. However, their abilities cannot be completely ignored.

After all, after Qi Jiao divorced He Youqi, she revealed in an interview that she spent at least three or four hundred thousand every month. It can be seen that the life of the former wealthy daughter-in-law is still very luxurious, which must be related to her wealthy marriage.

But even so, in the eyes of outsiders, the one who can really threaten the status of the second wife is still the fourth wife, because the fourth wife, Angela Leong, is a ruthless character.

Her own financial strength is enough to compete with Pansy Ho and Lawrence Ho from the second wife's family. Unexpectedly, her children, and even her son-in-law and daughter-in-law are all very capable.

We all know that Angela Leong's youngest son, Ho Yau-kwan, has made some achievements in the field of e-sports. The e-sports company he founded was successfully listed on the Nasdaq. As a young talent, he naturally has taken up the banner of the fourth room.

But what the outside world did not expect was that in the past two years, He Youjun's wife Xi Mengyao has also gained the trust of her mother-in-law Liang Anqi. Not only did she start studying business-related courses privately, but Liang Anqi also took her to inspect the family business.

From the outside, this is a sign that Angela Leong tacitly approves Xi Mengyao's entry into the family business. In other words, the number of people from the fourth room working in the family business is increasing, and their influence has naturally expanded.

In addition, we all know that He Youjun’s sister He Chaoyun is also in charge of some affairs in the family business, and He Chaoyun’s husband is a top student at Harvard. These are all the strengths of the fourth room.

In addition to Ho Yau-kwan, Ho Chiu-ying also has a younger brother named Ho Yau-heng. Although his current ability does not seem to be as strong as Ho Yau-kwan, his future is unknown.

Seeing this, we completely understand that the third and fourth wives have also been working hard to run their own businesses. This is why Josie Ho, who did not work in the family business, received the least inheritance.

The most crucial thing is that the younger brothers and sisters of the third and fourth rooms, and even the younger brothers-in-law and brothers-in-law, are constantly infiltrating into the family business.

That is to say, after the death of the gambling king and the distribution of his inheritance was settled, the infighting within the He family has not ended. However, Josie Ho has been able to completely stay out of the infighting and is still able to venture into the entertainment industry leisurely. This is really thanks to her sister, Pansy Ho.

Josie Ho also knows that she is very dependent on her sister. Whenever she encounters any difficult problems, she will discuss them with her sister Pansy Ho. No wonder she is still so rebellious at the age of nearly 50. Who says she has her sister's pampering!
