Recently, Changpeng Zhao, the former "richest man in China", was sentenced to four months in prison in the United States, and he himself pleaded guilty and accepted punishment and will not appeal.
Compared with the last verdict, from 36 months to 4 months, his legal team is quite powerful, which is basically equivalent to a release.
Changpeng Zhao was arrested, and the woman behind him surfaced
Of course, he also paid a heavy price for it. Changpeng Zhao personally had to pay a $50 million fine to the United States, while Binance, which he created, was required to pay $4.3 billion in fines.
This amount of money is also a small meaning for Changpeng Zhao. According to the "2024 Forbes Global Billionaires List", Changpeng Zhao ranks 50th in the world with a net worth of 33 billion US dollars (about 239 billion yuan).
Spending money to eliminate disasters is undoubtedly what rich people are best at. Changpeng Zhao's girlfriend He Yi (who did not confirm whether he got a license to get married) also thinks so.
As a partner of Binance, He Yi's feelings for Changpeng Zhao are heavier than anyone else's. She is not only Changpeng Zhao's partner, but also Changpeng Zhao gave birth to three children, and the relationship between the two can be seen.
He Yi and Changpeng Zhao
Today, He Yi is burdened with the needs of 180 million users and the future of the industry, and the responsibility on his shoulders is very heavy.
When he saw the news of Changpeng Zhao's trial in the United States, He Yi posted a text in the circle of friends, not only revealing the current situation of Binance, but also making a brief response to his life experience, and also said that he had given birth to three children.
As can be seen from the screenshot, He Yi revealed that he was from rural Sichuan, had a college degree, and his English level was still in the elementary stage before joining Binance.
He Yi also said that his height is less than 1.6 meters, he has been a host, and he is not very satisfied with his appearance, and he belongs to the kind of person who can't eat enough by his appearance.
In the end, she also revealed that she gave birth to her third child last year, and her body has not fully recovered until now.
Born in a rural college and graduated, He Yi's experience is a history of ordinary people's struggle
Looking at He Yi's resume, people can't help but be very curious, how did a college graduate born in a rural area become the "first sister of Bitcoin" step by step, and successfully won the "rich and handsome" of Changpeng Zhao?
Her story is legendary and enviable.
Today, let's take a look at what magic power this woman has that can make her leap from an ordinary woman to a partner of a well-known company.
Before meeting Changpeng Zhao, He Yi was like an ordinary person, going to and from work every day, relying on a dead salary to support himself.
She worked as a beverage promoter with a salary of less than 1,000 yuan a month, and then switched jobs to work as a store manager in a bedding store, but did not achieve income growth.
At the age of 20, He Yi decided that she could no longer live a messy life, and she decided to go to Beijing for further study.
After that, she went to school and went to graduate school, worked as a class teacher after graduation, and studied stocks in her spare time.
It wasn't until 2012 that He Yi was hired to join Tourism Satellite TV and became a host.
With his outstanding appearance and psychological background, He Yi has had a smooth journey in his career, and was promoted from the location host of "How Far and How Far" to the host of Beijing Satellite TV's "Beijing New Discovery" in just over a year.
As a college graduate born in a rural area, it is undoubtedly an honor to be able to become a host of Beijing Satellite TV.
He Yi cherishes this hard-won opportunity very much and is very active in his work.
After becoming the host, He Yi's salary has increased significantly, with a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan under normal circumstances, and he can also take on private work, go to commercial performances and opening activities as a host, and generally get tens of thousands of yuan per game.
According to her own words, at most, she earned less than 100,000 yuan a month.
Get acquainted with cryptocurrencies and meet Changpeng Zhao
Because of his identity, He Yi came into contact with many celebrities and entrepreneurs during the interview. Seeing them all radiant and confident, He Yi also came up with the idea of starting a business.
In 2014, virtual currencies were in full swing in China.
He Yi aimed at this opportunity and wanted to show his skills in this field, but he didn't know how to do it. At the invitation of Xu Xingxing, she decided to join OKCoin and become a partner of the company, responsible for brand building and marketing. At this time, her annual salary reached more than 400,000.
At an encryption meeting, He Yi met Changpeng Zhao.
At the time, Changpeng Zhao was working for a company that developed digital wallets and impressed He Yi during a speech. He Yi invited Changpeng Zhao to join OKCoin and be in charge of technology.
So far, OKCoin has gathered the three major gods in the crypto field, He Yi, Changpeng Zhao, and Xu Xingxing, and the "Bitcoin Heavenly Group" is known as OKCoin's troika.
With his eloquence and strong network resources, he has pushed OKCoin's brand image to a new height. She also planned OKcoin's debut in Times Square in New York, making OKcoin one of the first-tier exchanges.
According to rumors, He Yi led the team to successfully win 60% of the market share during his time in OKcoin, and the title of "First Sister in the Currency Circle" came from this.
It's a pity that the good times don't last long, and Xu Xingxing and Zhao Changpeng often have differences because of different concepts.
As the saying goes, one mountain does not tolerate two tigers, both of them have technical backgrounds, and conflicts are inevitable.
In the end, Changpeng Zhao chose to quit, and He Yi also chose to quit in the quarrel between the two.
After that, He Yi went to technology, because of the non-compete agreement, she was unable to engage in crypto work for a certain period of time.
Song Joong Ki did a fan meeting on a live broadcast
Speaking of technology, many friends may not have heard of it, but there is one thing that everyone must know.
In the same year that He Yi joined the technology, "Descendants of the Sun" became popular.
As the vice president, He Yi keenly captured the business opportunities behind it, and she grabbed Song Joong Ki's cooperation among many live broadcast platforms, making Yilive a top live broadcast platform.
This performance has made the investors behind the technology optimistic about He Yi's ability.
Joined Binance, and Changpeng Zhao is a partner, and he is also a lover in life
If adding technology is a transition, the cryptocurrency space is Ho's favorite.
It's 2017. He Yi's non-compete agreement also expired.
In June of the same year, Changpeng Zhao found He Yi with Binance's entrepreneurship white paper. The two chatted about business while eating, and judging from the fiery atmosphere, both of them had a feeling of sympathy for each other.
If it weren't for the non-compete agreement, the two might have founded Binance a long time ago.
In July of the same year, He Yi left the technology and officially joined Binance as a co-founder.
At this time, she was no longer worried about money, she wanted to make a career, and wanted to create a world-renowned company.
All this, Changpeng Zhao and the company behind him can make this dream come true. He Yi's vision is very accurate, and she has never made a mistake in major issues in life.
Perhaps it was from this time that He Yi's feelings for Changpeng Zhao have surpassed the relationship between partners.
He Yi and Changpeng Zhao have a clear division of labor, one is responsible for platform technology, and the other is responsible for brand and market. The two complement each other, and the degree of tacit understanding is like that of a husband and wife.
Soon, in December 2017, Binance became the world's number one trading volume with more than $3 billion in trading.
As Binance continues to grow and develop, He Yi has also accumulated his own wealth.
Ho Yi once told a Binance business associate that her stake made her one of the richest women in the world.
As for how much wealth she has, except for her and Changpeng Zhao, it is estimated that not many people know anymore.
The secrecy of Bitcoin has made them a mysterious Chinese billionaire.
Giving birth to three babies is burdened with the needs of 180 million users and the future of the industry
Now, with the arrest of Changpeng Zhao, Binance partner He Yi has become the focus of everyone's attention.
When Changpeng Zhao was put on trial in Seattle, He Yi was not idle, she conveyed her attitude to the outside world, and said that she would shoulder the needs of 180 million users and the future of the industry.
As for the three children born to Changpeng Zhao, He Yi will also take good care of her, she will work while running the house, and welcome Changpeng Zhao home after four months.
A college graduate from a rural area, from a promoter to a store manager, to a host, and finally to a partner of a well-known platform, He Yi has taken every step very well and accurately, at least since the host, her vision and choice have allowed her to master a lot of resources and give her a better choice.
I have to say that this woman is very powerful, and there are only a few of the 1.4 billion people, and He Yi is one of them. From her, we can learn that if you want to succeed, you must learn more knowledge and read more books, and you must keep up with the times.
