Chinese Multimillionaire's Son Discovers Father¡¯s Riches After 20 Years. Here¡¯s What Happened!

This story sounds like a typical Bollywood movie. A Chinese multimillionaire kept his wealth hidden from his own son until he finished his graduation!

It was only after 20 years that Zhang Yudong, the founder of Hunan Spicy Gluten Latiao(Chinese snack) brand Mala Prince, disclosed this secret to his son Zhang Zilong. Not just his son but the entire country was stunned by this big revelation.

Upon graduating from university, Zilong realized that his family was remarkably wealthy, a revelation contrary to his previous belief during the first two decades of his life.

Zilong, who spent his childhood in Pingjiang county, Hunan province, believed that he lived a humble life in an "ordinary flat." His father, the mastermind behind the lucrative Mala Prince empire worth millions of dollars, intentionally kept their true wealth hidden from him. Instead, he painted a picture of financial hardship and debt to instill in his son a strong work ethic and determination to succeed.

"I had no inkling of our wealth until after completing my education. My father's intention was for me to carve my own path based on merit, devoid of any reliance on familial riches," Zilong told the local news channel.

Zhang Yudong, aged 51, orchestrated this scheme to ensure that his son pursued his education and career goals with diligence rather than a sense of entitlement.

However, upon revealing the family's genuine financial situation after his son's graduation, Zhang Yudong introduced him to a life of opulence, relocating to a luxurious villa valued at an astounding 10 million yuan. Zilong has since begun his career within his father's company.

In an interview with Douyin influencer, "I am keenly aware of the privilege bestowed upon me. Yet, my ambition transcends mere affluence. My goal is to steer our company towards international acclaim and eventual public listing."
