One of China's lowest-key tycoons.
Wei Wang has never been interviewed by any media since 18 started his business. "You can't interview him 100%." A senior person in the logistics and express delivery industry told me, "Once, the leader of the postal department came to take a message, but he politely refused." The editor-in-chief of another trade newspaper said that for many years, they have been inviting Wang Wei to "come to the editorial department for interviews or internal exchanges", and Wang Wei promised to come back, but he never showed up.
So far, Wei Wang has only appeared in the media once. This is a dramatic experience. In the spring of 20 10, Wei Wang bought a piece of land in Lashali Road, Kowloon Tong, Hong Kong, and built two four-story detached houses with independent swimming pools. This transaction, which broke the price record of real estate in the same district, attracted the attention of the reporter of Next Weekly. Dedicated paparazzi not only waited for Wang Wei in front of the office building of SF Shenzhen headquarters for several days, but also sneaked into SF Hong Kong headquarters, worked as a courier for one day and received more than 300 packages.
Not only the media are looking for Wei Wang, but also the managers of investment banks are looking for him. This time, they smelled money not only out of gossip or curiosity, but obviously. It is said that as early as 2004, when FedEx planned to enter the China market, it had contacted Wang Wei. It was rumored that FedEx wanted to buy SF Express for RMB 4-5 billion, but Wang Wei refused. In that year, SF's sales were 654.38+0.3 billion RMB.
