Tracing back to the roots of the Rong family reveals a profound legacy. Rong Dang, the patriarch and father of Rong Yiren, was born in 1875 and is often referenced as the “Red Capitalist.” Over decades, he established a flourishing business in textiles, flour, and machinery, earning titles such as the "Flower King" and the "Cotton Yarn King" of China. The Rong brothers initiated their journey into business by founding Guang Shang Silver House in 1896 and later transitioned into lucrative flour milling.
