As head of Hony Capital, the longtime Chinese private-equity leader likes to put his money in the media and entertainment sectors. John Zhao was recognized as part of 2018's Variety500 presented by verizondigital
A veteran investor with $10 billion under management, Zhao is now a regular on the Davos and RISE conference circuits. His positions as head of Hony Capital and among the leaders of Legend Group and computer manufacturer Lenovo give him powerful insight into China’s changing economy.
As it swings from manufacturing for export toward a consumption-led mix driven by tech and leisure, Zhao is putting money into the businesses serving the country’s hundreds of millions of increasingly leisured middle classes. He loves big data and believes China’s vast scale gives it an advantage over others in data science, biotech and movies. Film and TV player Linmon Pictures, Korean VFX player Dexter and Hollywood’s STX Entertainment are just some of his portfolio investments.
