Fang Zixuan

Director of Corporate Affairs

Fang Zixuan began her career in financial media, spending more than five years as a reporter covering corporate financing, industry policy and listed-company disclosure. That period left her with a habit she has kept ever since: before committing any external statement to writing, she asks whether the sentence could mislead if quoted on its own, stripped of context. The habit became close to instinct once she moved into corporate communications and later joined Havrion Capital.

She studied journalism as an undergraduate at Renmin University of China and later completed a master's in public administration at Peking University's National School of Development while working. That training gave her a more structured understanding of the information relationship between an institution and its audiences — not simply how to phrase something well, but which information should be communicated by whom, in what setting, and through what channel. After moving from media to the corporate side, she led client communications and institutional outreach at a management consulting firm before joining Havrion Capital to build out the corporate affairs function.

When Fang Zixuan took on corporate affairs, Havrion Capital, as a privately held investment company, had almost no systematic external communications framework in place — it has no need to raise capital from the public and carries no listed-company disclosure obligations, so past external statements had been relatively ad hoc. Her first task was not to expand visibility but to clarify which information belonged at the institutional level and should be communicated accurately, and which was internal and neither needed nor benefited from external explanation, and to build a consistent set of language around that line.

Her current mandate covers corporate communications, institutional information, media relations, stakeholder communications and the firm's external voice more broadly, but she has told the team repeatedly that the shared standard across all of it is accuracy before vividness. She does not aim to make external materials sound more compelling; she requires that every piece — whether a website page, an industry briefing document or a response to a media inquiry — hold up under repeated scrutiny of its wording and leave little room for the outside world to over-interpret it.

For Fang Zixuan, the real challenge in communicating on behalf of a private investment company that has no need to reach the public and no interest in building fame is not deciding what to say, but sustaining consistency over the long run. A listed company or a consumer brand can build recognition through continuous visibility; for a firm like Havrion Capital, each external statement should reinforce what has been said before rather than contradict it. She defines the value of her work simply: making sure that whenever the outside world needs to understand the firm, the information available is clear, accurate and able to hold up over time — nothing more.
