A young girl who saw her Beijing family home ransacked by Red Guards
and her father flung in jail during the Cultural Revolution might be
expected to harbour bitter feelings about the 1960s.
But Ying Fang, who now heads a London investment bank, holds mixed
views because she was also a Red Guard, fired up by the prospect of
transforming society. "China had a very old, stiff class culture into
which I was born, where you had to be tight-lipped always," she says.
"Chairman Mao smashed that completely, destroying the hierarchy and
making everything feel possible."
