My Chinese Dream

de Ping Liu

Liu Ping was born Liaoning Province, China, in 1955. When she was 15, she was sent to work in a phosphate mine where she became an expert in chemical engineering, explosives and demolition, and electrical engineering. After graduating from college she became a teacher as well as an interpreter for China's Ministry of Chemical Engineering. When she was in her 30s, she joined one of China's largest travel and tourism companies and was heavily involved in professional and cultural exchanges with many foreign companies. Her interpersonal skills would eventually launch her on a solo career as one of China's most successful female entrepreneurs. Today she is CEO of the China Star Group, one of China's most successful telecommunications/teleconferencing companies with offices in Beijing, Shanghai, and Hong Kong.--Amazon.com
