THE MASH UP

---THE MASH UP---

Having been the proud owner of the paper company, Zhang Yin was rolling out an expanding family of entertainment and communications products. Zhang is believed to be the wealthiest self-made woman in the world. However, her low profile has helped her remain largely unknown over the past years. Perhaps more than anyone, she has come to define the global digital culture at the outset of the 21st century. "Zhang Yin's personal assets must have increased by 1.1 billion yuan," Thursday's Xinmin Evening News quoted a company official as saying. If that sounds over the top, she has looked at over-the-top through the rearview mirror since the mid-1970s. her relationship with a small group of rich people has made her a solid citizen in at least one regard.

But a decade as the mainland's richest person with a fortune of 27 billion yuan (3.4 billion U.S. dollars)., she built an early reputation and was introduced to the independent designer Ms. Versace, designer of the Versace label. Ms. Versace has largely build up her wealth in appearing in the 21st century. She is believed to be compared with Steven P. Jobs, founder of Apple Computers in 1997. Mr. Jobs 's business is ultimately focused on the corporate computing market, without notable success.

Their conflict of success will become largely notable in subsequent years.
