Yang Huiyan -
Finishing 15th on China's rich list, Country Garden's Yang Huiyan was only behind Wang de Wanda and Xu Jiayin of Evergrande (Hui Ka-yan) among the country's real estate billionaires. She has a net worth of $ 7 billion. The 35-year-old woman serves as the developer's vice president and is also its largest shareholder after her father, Yang Guoqiang, transferred 70 percent of her properties to her in 2007, just before the inclusion of Country Garden in Hong Kong.
The Ohio State University student has been active in her father's company since 2005 when she joined the firm as a purchasing manager. She is married and, although not much is known about her husband, it was reported that the two met on a blind date. One of Country Garden's most notable projects is the $ 121 billion Forest City development in the Iskandar region of Malaysia.
Wu Yajun - Longfor Properties
Once known as the richest woman in China, an expensive divorce in 2012 saw Wu Yajun fall on the list. This year, the co-founder and president of Longfor Properties, which is listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, is ranked 42nd on the Chinese Rich List and is the third-richest woman in the Chinese real estate industry with wealth net of $ 4 billion.
It's safe to say that Wu's trip to real estate was due more to chance than passion. She earned a degree from the Department of Navigation Engineering at Northwest China Polytechnic University. She then went on to work as an editor for a newspaper belonging to the Chongqing Municipal Government Construction Office before starting Chongqing Zhongjianke Real Estate, later renamed Longfor Properties, with her then-husband in 1995.
Zhang Xin
Among China's best-known businesswomen Zhang Xin leads the Soho China property developer with her husband Pan Shiyi. Forbes places Zhang's net worth at $ 3.2 billion, which is good enough for 62nd place on the wealthy list. The only girl in the factory has become an entrepreneurial celebrity in recent years, but her high profile has not saved SOHO from the painful struggles in the country's changing property market.
