China Scion's Fight With Half-Siblings Sends Succession Warning

China Scion's Fight With Half-Siblings Sends Succession Warning

Bloomberg21-07-2025
For decades, Kelly Zong had been known as the only child to her late billionaire father, the founder of beverage empire Hangzhou Wahaha Group Co. His effort to groom her as a successor was hailed as a model for Chinese entrepreneurs during the one-child policy era.
But Kelly is now grappling with two overlapping legal challenges stemming from unresolved matters left behind by her father — cases that could set a legal precedent for wealth succession in China and cast a shadow over the reputation of one of the country's most iconic beverage empires.

Treasuries climbed, led by longer-dated notes, following a solid $44 billion sale. Oil held gains early Wednesday after President Donald Trump's reiteration that further levies on Russia remained on the table without a Ukraine truce.

Trump to Get Last Word on China Truce Extension, Bessent Says

By and Rainier Harris Save Good morning. The US and China aren't done talking. Trump gives Russia 10 days to reach a Ukraine truce. And a mass shooting in Manhattan evokes grief and prompts tighter security. Listen to the day's top stories. The third round of US-China trade talks wrapped up without clarity on the fate of the tariff truce that's set to expire in two weeks. China's delegation earlier said a 90-day extension had been reached, but Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said they 'jumped the gun a little' and that Donald Trump will make the final call. The president, returning from Scotland after dealing the EU a harsh blow in the trade war, said India may face a tariff rate of 20% to 25%.
