Chapter 55: Family Gathering

Lei Ming's third grandfather was the first to speak: "Times are different, it was not easy for us Chinese to live in the United States in the past, and there has been a lot less suppression of us over the years. I think we can be a little more high-profile, and everyone can borrow some strength. ”

"What the third brother said is that the high-profile birth of the Lei family can also make the children of the Lei family more centripetal. ”

"My Lei Jiaqing is better than blue out of blue, and I can't hide it if I want to. ”

……

Old man Lei Yi listened to the brothers' praise of his proud grandson for a while, and then said with a smile: "It's good that everyone has no opinions." The high-profile birth of the Lei family has become a fact, and I am also thinking about one thing these days. Our Lei family is thriving, but each house is living farther and farther away in order to develop a career or live, and the juniors are moving less and less, and there may be many juniors who don't know each other.

In the past, the name of our Lei family was not uniform, in addition to the fact that the ancestors of our Lei family were martial artists, the name was relatively arbitrary, and the descendants continued the tradition, but also because it was low-key. Now that the Lei family has been born, a few family elders and I feel that we can arrange the descendants with a generation, so that future generations will not mess up the generations and have more intimacy. Of course, we don't force it, each room is willing to be named according to the word is the best, and those who have other ideas can also be. Respect the ideas of each house and young people. ”

Martial arts are the respect of the descendants of the Lei family for their ancestors. The ancestor of the Lei family is actually a poor child who has practiced martial arts.

The character generation is the word used to indicate the generation in the name, and many cultured families in ancient times would formulate some words for the descendants to let the descendants rank the generations.

When Lei Ming heard the old man's proposal, he thought that many people in China are looking for their roots and asking their ancestors, cultivating genealogy or something, and it seems that no matter how far they go, there are some things in the bones of Chinese that cannot be erased.

"This is good, there are a few rooms that have been named after the characters, but the words used are different, let's develop a common word generation, and all rooms can be used. ”

"Well, I agree, lest the juniors have to interrogate when they see each other, so as to find out the seniority. ”

……

Later, Lei Yi told everyone about the plan of this special dividend, or to continue the tradition of the Lei family's previous special dividend. Regardless of men and women, all the descendants of the Lei family can get a copy, and then some of them are awarded to the outstanding descendants of the Lei family, encouraging the descendants of the Lei family to start a career.

This time, each member of the Lei family can get a share of 200,000 US dollars, and in addition, 20 successful people in the sixth generation are selected to reward 10 million US dollars each.

The Lei family's houses were divided out at different times, and the inherited property was not equal, and those who were divided in modern times obtained more wealth, but those who were divided in earlier generations took a longer development time.

After years of development, the development of the Lei family's houses is different, with new billionaires born and bankrupt.

This time the reward is almost one person from ten people in the sixth generation, in principle, only one person is taken from one room, try to reward each room, and then let these people drive the development of that room. Some people are worth less than 10 million US dollars, but they have only achieved a small achievement, and this time it can be said that it is a big surprise to get 10 million US dollars.

Lei Ming was not interested in these topics, he came over to greet the elders of each room, and after standing for a while, he took the time to ask his father Lei Yang, who was standing on the side, who was greeting the other clansmen at the hotel.

Old Man Lei Yi also understood Lei Ming's thoughts, turned his head and smiled: "You go to the hotel to greet everyone, and communicate with your cousins more." ”

"Okay, then I'll go to the hotel first. ”

"Hmm. ”

Lei Ming said hello to the elders of each room again and left.

The elders of each house also hope that Lei Ming will be closer to their children and grandchildren.

Cheng Zhong, who was waiting on the first floor, saw Lei Ming coming down, so he followed Lei Ming and left.

Lei's Hotel is a 30-story building, in order to receive the clansmen, it has been closed for the past few days, and the people who come in and out are all from the Lei family. There are many people who come to vacation with their families.

Lei Ming's second uncle received and arranged for the clan to move in on the first floor.

After chatting with a few clansmen in the hall for a while, Lei Ming came to the banquet hall where the cocktail party was held.

The fourth and fifth generations are concentrated in the Lei Family Mansion, while the sixth and seventh generations are basically in the hotel banquet hall.

Compared with the twilight of the Lei family's office, the hotel banquet hall is full of vitality.

Handsome guys and beauties are talking and laughing with colorful cocktails.

As soon as the thunder appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the banquet hall.

The main branch of the Lei family was originally the center of the family, and Lei Ming was the most outstanding son of the main branch, and it was Lei Ming who made the Lei Group not only avoid the financial crisis but also make a lot of money, so that the old man of the Lei family passed on the throne at this time, and gave everyone in the Lei family a generous special dividend.

$200,000 per person is not a lot for the well-to-do branches, but for some branches that have become middle-class or even below, $200,000 per person is a lot of money, and it is saving some people's lives.

Although Lei Ming reminded all the clansmen after he was sure that the subprime mortgage crisis would occur, many people did not believe it. Just as many subprime mortgage companies collapsed in 2007, the Fed and many on Wall Street still don't think the market is too bad.

Some are grateful, some adore, and of course jealous.

Lei Ming smiled and chatted with his uncles and brothers for a while, and several active cousins wanted to ask him to tell everyone about the investment opportunities brought about by the financial crisis.

Cousin Lei Kai also actively looked for Lei Dong, who was in charge of entertaining everyone, to ask the hotel staff to prepare the microphone, and then held the microphone in front and said, "Everyone be quiet." This time, our Lei family can avoid the global financial crisis, and we can also pay a large amount of dividends, I think everyone already knows that our Lei Ming cousin, in addition to being a martial arts genius, is also a financial genius. It's rare for everyone to get together, and we asked Cousin Lei Ming to tell you a few words and talk about some investment opportunities. Everyone is welcome. ”

"Bang Bang Bang"

The Lei family in the banquet hall immediately stepped out of the middle way, watching Lei Ming applaud warmly.

It's hard to resist hospitality.

Lei Ming could only walk on the stage with a smile, took the microphone, looked around the Lei clan people below, and said with a smile: "Hello everyone, family." I'm glad to see people drinking here in high spirits, at least they can get back from the financial crisis. No matter how bad the economy is, life has to go on. Of course, I think the children of our Lei family must at least live in the middle class or above, and if anyone can't reach it, they can tell the family elders. Let all the descendants of the family reach the life of the middle class or above, and the group still has the ability to do so.

This time, I broke the Lei family's tradition of not doing financial speculation, and I also made some achievements. However, everyone should still be very wary of financial speculation, the financial market may make you a lot of money, and naturally you may also lose a lot of money.

I also know that Lei Kai called me up, and he definitely didn't want to hear me say this, prompting the risk, so I'll just say a few of my judgments. The financial crisis is not over yet, and the U.S. stock market is still falling, but the risk of shorting again is also greater. If you are interested, you can pay attention to gold, which may have a big opportunity.

However, the capital market is complex and changeable, and the simplest is the new hedge fund established by the investment group, after all, my past performance is not bad. ”

Lei Ming shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "Okay, I wish you all a happy holiday." ”
