The speakers will be joined on stage by moderator Gan Haifen, chief financial officer of Pioneer International Financial Leasing Co. and Pioneer Taimeng Financial Leasing Co. With 28-years of experience, Haifen previously served as vice president in the financial department of Hengxin Financial Leasing Co. He spent 10 years with the Shanghai Pharmaceutical Group and previously worked at China Huayuan Group, and Hengxin Financial Holding Group Co.
Lie is concurrently serving as the chief financial officer of Shanghai Shenhua Holdings Co., which oversees more than 50 subsidiaries including Lu Jinshenhua. Before her current role, Lie was the financial manager of France Vivendi Universal Music (China) Co., and later went to Shenyang Huachen Jinbei Automobile Co. as deputy general manager and financial director.
Xiaoyan joined Yuanda Finance and Leasing for its opening in January 2016 and has since helped grow the portfolio to $293 million (2 billion Yuan). Prior to joining the company, he was general manager at Oaks Financial Leasing Co. and spent 14 years at Xiangyi Rongtong Financial Business Headquarters, according to his LinkedIn.
During Yong’s time at Tonghui Finance and Leasing, he has promoted leasing as an attractive alternative for young Chinese consumers as a lifestyle.
“We hope that Tonghui is a very dynamic company, so instead of talking about financial leasing, [which] gives people a feeling of old-fashioned, financial leasing should be a way of life, an experience,” Yong said in a 2016 interview.
