In a little over 35 years China’s economy has been transformed from an inefficient backwater to the second largest in the world. If you want to understand how that happened, you need to understand the people who helped reshape the Chinese business landscape.
China’s Tycoons is a book about highly successful Chinese entrepreneurs. In 150 easy-to-digest profiles, we tell their stories: where they came from, how they started, the big break that earned them their first millions, and why they came to dominate their industries and make billions.
These are tales of entrepreneurship, risk-taking and hard work that differ greatly from anything you’ll have read before.
