Early Life and Inheritance
Li Jinyang inherited her fortune after the death of her husband, Zhao Meiguang, in December 2021. Zhao Meiguang was the founder of Chifeng Gold. As the new de facto controller, Li Jinyang does not directly participate in the company’s operations; however, Chifeng Gold's performance has been growing rapidly in recent years.
Rise to Success
Li Jinyang's primary source of wealth is the mining sector, particularly precious metals. Her company, Chifeng Jilong Gold Mining, has interests in precious metals and is based in Inner Mongolia. In March 2025, Chifeng Gold (6693.HK) became the third leading gold company to achieve dual A+H share listings. In March 2026, Zijin Mining, acquired a stake in Chifeng Gold.
Key Business Strategies
Li Jinyang's most high-profile move in the capital markets has been her substantial investment in Hygon Information (688041.SH). Prior to the listing of Haiguang Information, Ningbo Dacheng and Ningbo Shangcheng held shares. Li Jinyang holds stakes in these companies. Li's personal investment portfolio is centered around Hanfeng Capital, through which he collectively holds a 74% stake. Hanfeng Capital engages in primary-market strategic investments, secondary-market securities investment and asset management, as well as listed-company market-capitalization management and corporate restructuring and mergers and acquisitions.
