About Wei Ing-Chou
Wei Ing-Chou and his three younger brothers, Ying-Chiao, Yin-Chun and Yin-Heng, started Tingyi in 1991.
Tingyi is now one of the largest suppliers of ready-to-drink tea and bottled water in China and supplies almost half of the country's instant-noodle market.
As of 2019, Ing-Chou is no longer a director of Tingyi (Cayman Islands) Holding, but he remains a senior consultant to the company.
His eldest son, Wei Hong-Ming, born in 1978, is now the chairman. His third son, Wei Hong-Chen, born in 1982, is an executive director.
The family's private company, Ting Hsin, sold its 37.17% stake in Taipei 101, Taiwan's tallest building, to Itochu for $665 million in July 2018.
