Investor Jacky Zhang
Jacky Zhang, a renowned investor known for his extensive influence in both the Chinese and international investment fields, has earned the title of “The Young Super Talented Investor of the Capital Market.” Zhang’s early involvement in the U.S. capital market endowed him with rich and valuable investment experience. He adheres to the investment philosophy of “making investments with heart and capital with warmth,” and lives by the principle of “doing less, doing right, doing great.” Zhang serves as the Chairman of the European America China Investment Promotion Association -EACIPA, the Global Business Ambassador of City of Cambridge and an Honorary Doctor at Cambridge University. Zhang is also a senior economic advisor for over 90 cities in China, reflecting his profound expertise and widespread social influence.
Zhang’s keen insight and precision in selecting investment projects have led to successful investments in numerous listed companies, such as Jumei, WuXi AppTec, Zai Lab, JD Finance, Keshun Group, Jiayuan.com, Zhangmen Education, Wangsu Science & Technology, Qudian, and Qingke Entrepreneurship. These successful investments have not only brought him substantial returns but also cemented his esteemed position in the investment community.

His average return on investment in these companies exceeds 200%. Zhang is also actively involved in philanthropy and social activities, founding the Huishang Charity Foundation and frequently being honored as one of the top ten leaders in Sino-American trade and economics.
Jacky Zhang – The New Face of Chinese Investors
Do less, do right, do great.
In an in-depth dialogue with Jacky Zhang, it felt like leafing through a comprehensive encyclopedia. Some might find it hard to believe, and I too was skeptical before meeting Zhang: how could someone be likened to an encyclopedia? Is he artificial intelligence? Or something akin to ChatGPT? The reality is that Zhang, an outstanding figure in the investment sector, has successful investment cases in multiple fields, including IT, film, primary and secondary markets, and AI. Zhang has written an accessible financial education book titled “Learn a Little Finance Every Day,” advocating for responsible warmth in investment by maintaining ethical standards and honoring commitments.
Spending a week in Manhattan with Jacky Zhang, the Chairman of the Sino-American-European Investment Promotion Association, I deeply felt his extensive knowledge. From astronomy to geography, music to film, cutting-edge technology to urban legends, foreign exchange trading, stock market investments, and everyday travel, Zhang’s grasp is profound. How does he manage it all? His speech is clear, calm, and unhurried, never interrupting or showing impatience, providing well-reasoned advice or answers to any query.
From philanthropic ideals to donations in Africa, from smart kitchens to humanoid robotic employees, from the study to the practical sections of “Learn a Little Finance Every Day,” to the health industry for the average person-without sound financial planning, how can one have a healthy life? From financial investments to investing in football, to film and culture, from ethics to subtle leveraging, from investing in education to the intrinsic value of its diplomas, and the inevitable connection between investment in training institutions and successful job market opportunities, how can one understand that capital can be warm, achieving a win-win for investors, managers, investees, industries, and society? These questions, and more, Zhang can answer comprehensively.
Discussing investment philosophy and Chinese policies, Zhang’s insights are profound and deeply human. His famous “Five-Dimensional Thinking” theory asserts that thought is a person’s core competitiveness. When one possesses industrial, financial, political, social, and human thinking, they can solve any problem. He attributes his success to balancing trends, policies, and people. For example, in the U.S. stock market, Zhang boldly purchased New Oriental stocks at their lowest point, investing heavily at $1 per share. Despite initial losses, Zhang believed in Yu Minhong’s resilience and entrepreneurial spirit. True to form, New Oriental’s stock soared from $1 to $40 per share.

Jacky Zhang’s Investment in Film and Entertainment
If investing in New Oriental stocks was based on the person behind it, Zhang’s investment in an AI fund a decade ago was based on industry trends. Now, as we enter the AI era, his early investments in robotics, AR projects, and computing companies have yielded billion-dollar valuations and industry unicorns. A decade ago, we barely understood cloud technology or AI’s relevance to our daily lives, but now the stock market’s benefits are apparent.

At the UN Africa Hall, Zhang discussed his motivation for donating to African children-he wanted to alleviate the psychological burden of poverty on them. His initial donation of $1 million was followed by a $10 million donation at the UNESCO’s invitation. In front of the portraits of the UN Secretary-General and Nelson Mandela’s statue, Zhang stood solemnly. At a family banquet hosted by national icon Yue-Sai Kan, the age difference of thirty years between them seemed irrelevant.
Harvard University’s most famous Chinese student, Hu Shih-a renowned philosopher, former President of Peking University, and Ambassador to the U.S. during the Nationalist era-founded the China Institute in America to promote Chinese culture. For 98 years, the China Institute and the Committee of 100 have annually recognized outstanding Chinese individuals globally in fields ranging from literature and art to science and business.
As the China Institute’s centenary approaches, Co-Chair Yue-Sai Kan dreams of 100 Chinese enterprises emulating Haier Group’s donation of $1 million to the China Institute’s new open Chinese kitchen. Zhang, embodying his investor’s spirit, advised on financing strategies and emphasized modernizing the donation mechanism, akin to Harvard University’s endowment fund. He advocated for quality and credible donation mechanisms to encourage generosity, unlike the traditional Chinese community’s table-selling model.

Everyone present agreed wholeheartedly with Zhang’s suggestions.
Visiting the New York Institute of Finance, Zhang praised Dean Tian Li for her forward-looking vision and ability to create a global financial training platform.
At the Virgin Hotel-a collaborative project between New York real estate mogul John Lam and Richard Branson-Zhang proposed establishing a “Tech Innovation Kitchen Fund” to introduce humanoid robots into the hotel’s open kitchen on Broadway, attracting tourists with innovative culinary experiences.
During a dinner at Fushimi, a high-end Japanese restaurant owned by Hong Kong General Chamber of Commerce President Daniel Chen, Zhang suggested opening a fifth Fushimi restaurant in California’s Newport Beach to cater to the new affluent Chinese community.
At Central Park Tower 100, Zhang admired the beauty of Central Park, reflecting on its reputation as “New York’s green lung” and its representation of urban beauty.
As the sun set over Manhattan, Zhang reminisced about the contributions of Chinese immigrants to America while sailing around the Statue of Liberty.

A Future-Focused Dialogue with Jacky Zhang
A conversation with Jacky Zhang is as enriching as reading an encyclopedia. His dialogue with New York’s leaders in technology, business, finance, culture, media, and real estate may inspire new concepts, plans, and models for the city’s overall development in AI, new financial systems, new entertainment industries, and the health sector.
Zhang’s knowledge and ability to unite international forces will provide valuable guidance, joy, and surprises for those living and working in New York, just like the current Hollywood film “SIGHT” with Chinese elements. Zhang’s vision and insights will challenge our preconceived notions, opinions, and perspectives, offering a refreshing outlook on the future.
Believing in the goodness of humanity, we trust that the future is bright and full of hope. We will likely form a close partnership with AI, moving forward together.
Before that, let’s learn from Jacky Zhang’s philosophy of “doing less, doing right, doing great” and his “Five-Dimensional Thinking” system. Our future will be just as promising.
