Wei Dong was a successful magnate who created the Yongjin Group in 1994, a financial consulting firm interested in private equity investment, financial service and medical industry. Troubled by depression and obsessive-compulsive disorder, Wei Dong committed suicide in 2008, and Jinxia inherited the controlling stake of the firm, which also holds shares in Sinolink Securities, a brokerage firm, as well as pharmaceutical producers Zhuzhou Qianjin Pharmaceutical and Jiuzhitang. Like her husband, she also keeps a low profile avoiding publicity and she has never accepted an interview or delivered a speech for any public occasion.
