Chemistry Teacher Who Quit Her Job Is Now a Billionaire

[micromachine]

Zhong Huijuan quit her job teaching chemistry to teenagers and got into the drug business.

The career switch has paid off handsomely.

Her Hansoh Pharmaceutical Group Co., China’s largest maker of psychotropic drugs, is poised to go public Friday in Hong Kong with a market value of $10.4 billion. Zhong holds a 68% stake, giving her a $7.9 billion fortune, according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index.

Zhong, 58, isn’t even the richest person in the family. Her husband Sun Piaoyang, 60, is worth $9.3 billion, thanks to the success of his Jiangsu Hengrui Medicine Co., a maker of anti-tumor drugs whose stock has returned about 16,300% since it went public in Shanghai almost two decades ago.

ROME — A retiree discovers he is terminally ill and decides to sell drugs to pay for his funeral, so he can leave some money behind for his loved ones.
It's not the plot for a sequel to "Breaking Bad," but the explanation a 61-year-old man from northern Italy told a judge Tuesday after he was found with about a half-ounce of cocaine in his car, wrapped and ready to be sold.



Police said the drugs were found in tubes meant to carry vitamin C tablets.

The retiree, who was arrested near the city of Bergamo, was also carrying around $1,000 in cash, according to investigators.
"It didn't surprise us that much," an officer involved in the case told NBC News, speaking on condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to speak to the media. "The other day we arrested a 71-year-old man with a kilogram (2.2 pounds) of cocaine, and we have even seen mothers hiding drugs in their babies' strollers."
The man was released on bail pending a future court hearing. His name wasn't released by authorities.
