Li Fucheng was once known as “Li Jiacheng in Yanjiao”. He was born in 1946 in a poor family in Hebei. He dropped out of school and went home to herd cattle after reading for three years. When he was a teenager, he began to ride a bicycle around the streets to sell sesame oil, and accumulated some capital and business experience in this process.
Li Fucheng, in his 30s, was determined to start a business. He took up the old oil production technology and sold small grinding sesame oil. Because of the good quality of his sesame oil at that time, his business was also very prosperous. He once monopolized the sesame oil business of the whole county and became the local king of sesame oil worthy of the name.

Hebei Hurun ranked 9th on the rich list in 2016, becoming the “richest man in Yanjiao”. On October 10, 2019, the Hurun rich list was released.
