Tycoon of Chinese Real Estate Is Leasing at Trade Center Site – David Barboza

From the New York Times (link)

His office here on the other side of the world is stocked with ancient Chinese classics. When he travels, his suitcase is often packed with philosophical tracts. Occasionally, he quotes Mao.

But Feng Lun is no academic. He is one of China’s biggest real estate tycoons. And he is heading to New York City, as the only major tenant so far at the World Trade Center site.

Mr. Feng’s real estate company, the Vantone Group, has just agreed to lease the top five floors of the rebuilt 7 World Trade Center, the 52-story glass tower that overlooks ground zero.
