Chen Tianshi was the king of the Chinese stock market last year. No other company saw such strong growth on the Chinese stock market in 2024 as Cambricon, the semiconductor company Chen co-founded. Shares of the AI chip specialist, which some are already referring to as the Nvidia of China, rose by 383 percent in 2024. Investors and 40-year-old Chen must have been thrilled. His fortune is said to have increased to roughly 10 billion US dollars thanks to the stock market boom.
