In 1940, Yu Fengzhi traveled alone to the United States, beginning a financial legend that would make even modern tycoons blush.


She was well-versed in "The Great Way is Simple," never chasing market trends, and heavily invested in General Electric, Coca-Cola, and the Rockefeller family. With this conviction, she earned her first million dollars within 10 years.
Later, she took profits and shifted to real estate, snapping up vacant land near Disney at just $50 per ping (a traditional Chinese unit of area). By 1979, when she sold it, the price had skyrocketed to $30k per ping, a 600-fold profit!
Just how wealthy was Grandma Yu? Let’s put it this way: compared to her wealth empire, today’s Jack Ma, Pony Ma, and Elon Musk are all just her "poverty alleviation targets"!
