The 45-year-old, whose wealth was estimated to be around $740m in 2012, is renowned for his eccentric ways and flashy philanthropy, donating a fortune to charity.
Born in July 1968, Chen was born into a very poor family and witnessed the deaths of both his brother and sister.
Swearing to change his destiny, the young and ambitious Chen slowly began building his wealth.
The billionaire became widely known after the 2008 devastating Sichuan Earthquake when he brought a fleet of cranes and trucks to the scene and helped rescue survivors before donating more than 100 million yuan ($18.33 million) to help with reconstruction efforts.
He also attracted media attention for selling cans of "fresh air" in heavily polluted Beijing and for suggesting that the one-child policy should apply more to less-educated people, the South China Morning Postreported.
More recently Chen has been in the headlines over talk of buying a $1 billion stake in the New York Times.
However he is now understood to have dropped out of any potential deal due to undue media speculation and attention, according to Forbes.
