Primary Evidence

"In the Chinese business community, there are many mavericks who have “automotive dreams.” For example, the astonishing Geely Auto President Li Shufu, who is always the center of attention wherever he goes; and the humorous and witty Chairman Yin Mingshan of Chongqing Lifan, who always brings laughter before he even arrives. Only Wang Chuanfu has consistently been silent and stable like an "invisible person." He is not tall, and he walks very quickly. Like most of China's private entrepreneurs, Wang Chuanfu likes to work late into the night. He even has never been to the top of Huangshan, although it is very close to his hometown. Wang Chuanfu said: “I didn't go before because I didn't have the money, now it's because I don't have the time.” When chatting with others, Wang Chuanfu prefers to talk about cars. About himself, he often sums up this way: “I think I still have some adventurous genes in me.”"
