"I was confident in the land's future, despite its bleakness back then," Chan Wai-kuen said about her first encounter with Shenzhen, Guangdong province.
Chan, now in her 80s, was one of the first Hong Kong businesspeople to invest in the city after its opening-up.
On June 28, 1982, her first project in the city－Shekou Shopping Center－opened, officially as "a metal warehouse".
