If you were asked to talk about enterprises in Hebei, how many would you name casually? Speaking of the rich in Hebei, how many can you name casually?

This important place, Gyeonggi, seems to be completely covered by the light of Beijing and Tianjin. The total GDP ranks 13 in all provinces and cities in China, above the middle reaches; Per capita disposable income ranking 17, not even the middle reaches. I thought I could touch the light of the metropolis, but I was tired of the siphon effect.

But there are three very rich people in Hebei, either the richest in the province or the richest in a certain group. The couple's second donation of 1 billion yuan touched countless people.

Let's start with those in Hebei Province.

On the Hurun Report in 2020 released not long ago, a 7 1 year-old rich man named Wu Yiling became the richest man in Shijiazhuang, the capital of Hebei Province, with a wealth of 2 1 100 million yuan.

2 1 100 million yuan is not impressive on the list, ranking 25th1. However, Wu Yiling also has a very special identity-an academician of China Academy of Engineering. Yes, he is the richest academician in China.

There is a star academician who has attracted special attention since 2020. He is Shi. Shi, an academician of China Academy of Sciences, was once the vice president of Tsinghua University. 20 18 Resigned as Vice President of Tsinghua University to prepare for West Lake University and became the first president.

Last year, he attracted attention because Cheng Nuo Jianhua, which he co-founded, was successfully listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. He had opposed scientists' entrepreneurship before, and his net worth soared. Together with his wife Zhao, he boarded the 2020 Hurun Report with a wealth of 2 billion yuan.

Its wealth is more than 10 times that of history, and it was listed many years ago.

Compared with 8.5 billion yuan in 20 19, the wealth of Wu Yiling increased by 1 times in 1 year. One of the main reasons is the well-known Lianhua Qingwen Capsule. This is the flagship product of Yiling Pharmaceutical, which he founded.

Wu Yiling was born in a family of traditional Chinese medicine in 1949. After resuming the college entrance examination, he was admitted to the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Hebei Medical University, and then went to Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine to study for a master's degree. After graduation, I worked in Hebei Provincial Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine. 1992 founded Yiling pharmaceutical on the basis of a small research institute, and led the enterprise to go public on 20 1 1.

At present, he holds more than 30% of the shares of Yiling Pharmaceutical, with his son holding 20% and his daughter holding 2.3%.

In 2009, he was elected as an academician of China Academy of Engineering. In addition, he also holds many social positions and is a top expert in treating cardiovascular diseases in China. From June 5438 to October 2020/kloc-0, his team won the first prize of national scientific progress.

Many years ago, Wu Yiling handed over the management of the company to his son. At the age of 70, he insists on weekly house calls and only charges 8 yuan registration fee.

The second place is Du Shuanghua, the former richest man in Shandong and Rizhao Steel.

Du Shuanghua was unknown to the outside world before 2008. In 2008, Rizhao Steel first donated 654.38 billion yuan at the fund-raising site of the Wenchuan earthquake in CCTV, which attracted the attention of the outside world. Subsequently, on the Hurun Report in 2008, Du Shuanghua ranked second only to Huang Guangyu, the richest man in that year, and became the richest man in Shandong.

At this time, it was only three years before he went to Rizhao to start Nippon Steel.

Du Shuanghua, a native of Hengshui, Hebei Province, was born in 1965, with only junior high school education. In his early years, he worked in a subsidiary company of Shougang. 1987 resigned and founded a steel pipe factory in Beijing. In the following ten years, he built a private steel giant named Jinghua, which has pipe factories in Beijing, Hebei, Shandong, Guangdong and Sichuan.

At a meeting, he accidentally learned that someone intended to change hands on a set of equipment, so he decided to buy it and set up the factory in Rizhao, Shandong. Rizhao iron and steel company started construction on March 3 1 day, and it only took 18 1 day to start steel production on September 28 of that year. Later, he created a series of miracles.

However, after 2009, Du Shuanghua suffered a series of events and was silent for nearly 10 years. In 20 19, he suddenly returned to the top of the rich list with 40 billion wealth, while in 20 18, his wealth was only 6 billion. In 2020, his wealth further increased to 50 billion yuan, returning to the top 3 in Shandong, and staged a good show of the return of the king.

At the scene of the donation for the Wenchuan earthquake held by CCTV in 2008, the people who attracted the most attention were not Rizhao Steel and Du Shuanghua, but another Hebei native, Zhang Xiangqing. He also donated 1 100 million yuan.

He is concerned because he has another identity-the orphan of Tangshan earthquake.

Zhang Xiangqing was born in Tangshan, 1969. In that earthquake, his mother died while trying to save him, as well as his brother, and his injured father died after 100 days. He became an orphan at the age of 8, dropped out of school at the age of 15, and once became a scavenger.

This year, with the help of the government, he entered a local steel factory to work.

But three years later, he left the steel plant to learn from grinding bean curd, and then went to grinding bean curd to sell breakfast with his wife Zhang Ronghua, becoming a "million-yuan household".

199 1 year, he used the money he had saved and borrowed from his relatives to start a scrap business. Two years later, he earned 3 million yuan, and then he built his own steel plant-Tianjin Rongcheng Iron and Steel.

By 2007, the annual operating income of Rongcheng Iron and Steel has reached 28.5 billion yuan, ranking 159 among the top 500 Chinese enterprises. At that time, it was one of the largest private iron and steel enterprises in China and the largest private enterprise in Tianjin. Before and after, Zhang Xiangqing and Zhang Ronghua became the richest men in Tianjin for many times.

In 2008, he donated 6,543.8 billion yuan, which not only made him a blockbuster, but also touched countless people with his affection and righteousness.

It's a pity that I envy talents. 20 14 August, Zhang Xiangqing died of a heart attack.

Later, his wife, Zhang Ronghua, took over the business, and in the next ten years, Rongcheng was managed brilliantly. In 20 19, the operating income of Rongcheng iron and steel reached 79.3 billion yuan, ranking 258th among the top 500 Chinese enterprises in 2020. Not only did she not let her business collapse because of her husband's sudden death, but she also led Rongcheng to further develop.

The touching scene was staged again in early 2020. Cheng Ronghua also donated 654.38 billion yuan to fight the COVID-19 epidemic.
