China’s Gen Z investors are turning fund managers into social media stars

On a fan community page on Chinese social media platform Weibo, hundreds of users have posted comments and pictures, some covered in little red hearts, to express their admiration for a star they affectionately call Kun Kun. “Kun Kun flies bravely, iKun will always follow him; Kun Kun never gets old, and will remain a blue-chip till the end,” some users wrote alongside the picture. “Kun Kun,” whose full name is Zhang Kun, is neither a pop star nor actor. Instead, he is one of China’s most prominent fund managers who oversees around 120 billion yuan ($18.6 billion) in assets at E Fund Management, an established Chinese asset management firm. Zhang’s followers, who label themselves “iKun,” (“i” is a homophone for the Chinese word love), have also created accounts on Weibo posing as his “global fan clubs.” “Kun Kun, I would like to accompany you for many, many years,” a follower wrote. “Let’s witness both the bull and bear markets, but still return with young hearts.” ...

Last week, another prominent leakster IceUniverse also revealed the alleged final camera configuration for the S11+ alongside more details on the new 9-1 Bayer technology used in the phone’s 108 MP main sensor.

On top of that, we also got some clarification on the actual sensors with the top left one being touted as the ultra-wide-angle module which sits above the main 108MP shooter while the one below that is the periscope unit which supports 5x optical zoom. This means the fourth module should be the ToF sensor.

We are still at least a good two months away from the alleged February 11 launch date for the S11 series so we’ll likely get even more info in the meantime.
