Where are the descendants of the three richest people in Shanghai today? After a person dies, the most famous descendants spread all over the world.

In the 1980s, Shanghai Beach, a story about love and hate of gangsters in old Shanghai, premiered at TVB in Hong Kong and was enthusiastically sought after by the audience. The drama deeply touched many audiences with the story of revenge in Jianghu and the love between Xu Wenqiang and Feng Chengcheng. While constantly creating high ratings, it also influenced the creation of China's film and television dramas, and set off an upsurge of filming dramas of the Republic of China against the background of the gang struggle in old Shanghai in the early years of the Republic of China.

As a good drama that has influenced several generations, it can be said that many classic shots and images remain in the audience's mind, such as the "Xu Wenqiang" shape like a black hat, windbreaker and white gloves, and Li Ding, who changed from a street punk to a "top figure" in the upper class, left a deep impression on us. However, TV plays are romantic after all, so are the stories of the Big Three in Shanghai really as wonderful as TV plays? And what are their descendants now, who can become the hooligan tycoon of Shanghai at that time?

Green gang's "Big Three" in Shanghai were celebrities in the Republic of China: Huang, Li, Du. These three city tycoons formed the most powerful and influential new rogue group in old Shanghai. All three of them started from childhood, and everyone didn't know until later in Shanghai. At that time, it was not easy for someone to get involved in old Shanghai. However, with the change of the world, the "Big Three" finally came to the end of the road, and then their ending was in sharp contrast with the previous glory.

First, let's talk about Huang. As a famous green gang leader in old Shanghai, his life is full of legends. Huang didn't like reading much since he was a child, and he was especially good at interacting with local ruffians and hooligans. Later, he used the gang's power to attract disciples and became a local tyrant. Later, Huang didn't want to be lonely anymore. I heard that being a policeman in the police office is very popular and promising. He decided to take a chance and apply to be a policeman in the French Concession. It was after this that Huang suddenly became a policeman in the French Concession. However, after Huang entered the White Road, a leopard cannot change his spots. He planned many illusions by himself, and improved his prestige by calling thieves and catching thieves. Soon, Huang was noticed by the Consul General of the French Concession and became the only inspector general of China in the French Concession Police Department.

After the promotion, Huang was even more domineering and daring, and became a famous "rogue tycoon" in Shanghai. Ordinary people dare not make any noise. Perhaps because of this, although Huang lived a luxurious life, he failed to leave a son and a half, and God also gave him the opportunity of infertility. Huang finally had to choose adoption and named the adopted child Huang. How much does Huang like this adopted son? The Huang family's industry in the French Concession was named after him. And this son didn't have his father's style at all, but Huang died young and failed to leave a little grandson to Huang. After Huang, it was beautiful but barren. In the eyes of China people, this is even more tragic!

Compared with another tycoon of Huang, he is short-lived. On August 1940, Zhang Mansion, Huage Road, Shanghai, was killed by his private bodyguard. It can be said that Zhang Xiaolin is a real traitor. Selling opium in his early years, bullying others. He is known as a "tricolor tycoon". After the fall of Shanghai, it turned to the enemy for its own efforts, suppressed anti-Japanese and national salvation activities, and made a fortune. After Zhang Xiaolin's death, his son, Zhang Fayao, had no ability, so he had to use Lao Tzu's money to please people everywhere. First, he went to France for further study, but according to his temper, he learned nothing. When he came back, he did nothing, smoked opium, and finally became a ghost and died in an alley.

Du, the last one, should be the most famous of the Big Three. He is known as "Huang is greedy for money, good at fighting, and Du will be a man". Compared with Huang and Zhang, Du does have something extraordinary. He is good at coordinating the relations between various factions of the underworld and dealing with the relations between warlords. He is good at collecting money and distributing it. Du collected a lot of money through various channels and wooed all kinds of people in society. Because of his kindness to Li, the outgoing president of Shanghai, Li's secretary-general specially wrote a pair of couplets: "Spring is three dry guests, and Xiao is five feet south of the city." Since then, he has also been touted by his partisans as a "contemporary spring Shen Jun".

Du is the eldest of the three richest people in Shanghai and the most patriotic of the three. His ending is completely different from the first two, and he lives a happy life with his children and grandchildren around his knees. Although Du himself came from a humble background, he attached great importance to education and respected literati. Zhang Taiyan, a great scholar at that time, was his good friend. He has always been very strict with his children's study, and it is strictly forbidden to get involved in smoking, gambling, prostitution and other bad habits. Du Fanwei, his favorite son, skipped an exam. He was so angry that he slapped his son several times. His daughter Du Meiru did badly in a foreign language exam, and he whipped her as a warning.

It can be said that under Du's education, all his children have achieved excellent results when they grow up, and all of them have studied abroad and lived overseas. Du's eldest daughter has opened a restaurant overseas all her life, and now she wants to go back to Shanghai to spend her old age. The fourth son, Du Weixin, went to the United States to study, married an American wife, and finally stayed in the United States to engage in business activities. The youngest son, Du Weishan, now lives in Canada and is a cultural relic collector. He once donated 65,438+080 ancient coins to Shanghai. In contrast, Du's children and grandchildren can make Huang He feel ashamed.

Du likes people to call him "Mr. Du" very much. He also founded a real middle school in the French Concession, and he served as the chairman himself. In his hometown of Pudong, he spent 654.38+10,000 yuan to build the "Du's Library in Pudong" and attached a school so that other people who love reading can also read sage books. Finally, what we want to say is that Du is the most outstanding one among the "three richest people in Shanghai". Especially in War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, he served as the vice president of China Red Cross Society for many years and did some useful charity work. In particular, he served as the vice chairman before and after the Anti-Japanese War, and made great contributions to rescuing wounded soldiers, transporting materials and building resistance forces.
