She married her husband who was 19 years older than her at the age of 21. In two years, she became the 11th richest person in China. She did not compete for her looks but her talent.

She is Zhang Zetian, Liu Qiangdong’s wife.

Not long ago, Zhang Zetian, the milk tea girl, posted a photo of herself and Bill Gates on Instagram.

And wrote: "We just launched the charity donation platform in the morning, and took the opportunity to share our ideas with Gates in the evening. Let the world see China's charity innovation!"

And then A video of her having dinner with Gates has leaked online.

With fluent English and elegant conversation, people can’t help but exclaim: Is this the same little girl wearing school uniform, holding milk tea in one hand, and smiling shyly at the camera?

Yes, when you thought she was still the milk tea girl, she has already grown into Zhang Zetian who can take charge of her own business.

Zhang Zetian was born in Nanjing on November 18, 1993. In 2009, a photo of her holding milk tea became popular on the Internet, and she became known as the "Milk Tea Sister".

He studied at Tsinghua University in 2011. In 2014, his relationship with Liu Qiangdong, the president of JD.com, was exposed. On October 1, 2015, the two, who were 19 years apart in age, got married. They were originally popular Internet tycoons and Internet celebrities. After their relationship was exposed and they got married and had children, they became a celebrity couple and attracted media attention.

Back then, when the innocent Milk Tea Sister in the eyes of the public revealed her relationship with Liu Qiangdong, who was 19 years older than him, the Internet was basically full of curses. One was young and beautiful, and the other was worth tens of billions. The milk tea girl suddenly fell from the altar and became a money-worshiping girl who traded her youth and beauty for material things.

But how can Liu Qiangdong, who is in charge of a billion-dollar empire, be so stupid? How could Liu Qiangdong, who made his fortune from scratch, marry a woman who is just a beautiful vase?

Not to mention that Zhang Zetian was born into a wealthy businessman's family. His father, Zhang Lihou, has a net worth of over 100 million. He is the president of Nanjing Huitong Group and the vice president of Jiangsu Provincial Stage Arts Association.

When she was still a freshman in high school, she won the national aerobics runner-up and was a national first-level athlete. After graduating from high school, he applied to Tsinghua University as a sports student.

In 2013, Zhang Zetian, a sophomore at Tsinghua University, went to New York, the United States, as an exchange student to study at the famous Barnard College of Columbia University. In 2014, he also entered Microsoft as an intern and spoke at a product launch conference.

So, before meeting Liu Qiangdong, Zhang Zetian was a proper Bai Fumei who worked hard and fought hard.

Just like good people, they will only be with good people. When you choose your partner, you are actually choosing a lifestyle and a value.

Whether the other person is good-looking or not, how old they are, if their life goals are completely inconsistent and their values ??are completely inconsistent, can they still be together?

After becoming the boss of JD.com, the former milk tea girl is still controversial. People just don't believe that a young and beautiful 21-year-old girl can fall in love with a man who is 19 years older than her.

Words and expressions can deceive, but eyes cannot.

She once lived in the aura of "Milk Tea Sister", but later she has been living in the shadow of "Milk Tea Sister".

Until October 2016, Liu Qiangdong suddenly became angry and posted a message saying: "If anyone mentions the words "milk tea sister" in front of me in the future, don't blame me for being rude! Because we hate this title.”

Yes, she is no longer the “milk tea sister”.

Industrial and commercial information shows that it has invested in 8 companies, mainly in the fields of technology, Internet, and business services. It is enough to see that the milk tea sister put all her thought into it.

Milk Tea also owns a cultural communication company named "Jiangsu Zhangzetian Cultural Development Co., Ltd." after himself, and he serves as the chairman. This was registered as early as December 2014 when Zhang Zetian was in love with Liu Qiangdong. The registered capital is 10 million yuan, which is solely owned by Zhang Zetian.

▲ At the event, Zhang Zetian, who was wearing a smart white shirt and black pants, revealed in the interview that he and Liu Qiangdong had a clear division of labor, and that he was responsible for family investment and public welfare.

We do not deny the family background and resource advantages of milk tea, but we should also see that even Bai Fumei, who was born with a golden key in her mouth, has never stopped working hard.

At the age of 24, it is not easy to be able to support the resources and achieve something without just being a vase lady.

In May 2015, Milk Tea Sister and her husband Liu Qiangdong*** were on the list of China's richest people, with a wealth of more than 52 billion.
