Celebrity Networth
chronicles the rise of Zhang Xin, one of China's richest women, how she went from working in a factory in Hong Kong to China's Rich List.
When Zhang Xin was 14, she moved to Hong Kong to look for a job but found life there to be just as downtrodden as it was in Beijing. While living in Beijing, she worked on an assembly line in a sweat shop for five years, all the while dreaming of escaping to a different life. When she finally had saved up enough money, Xin bought a one way ticket to London and left. In London she worked at a fish and chips stand, terrified of the people and not knowing the language. After all, in Mao's China there were few, if any, Caucasians. She felt alone. But she never gave up on her dream of a better life and soon enrolled in a school to learn English.
