Art serves work and pleasure for Christie's China president

Before the interview, Caroline Cai Jinqing was in conference preparing for the Spring Auction in Shanghai starting on April 26. It's an important event in Christie's China's corporate year.

Cai is now heads Chinese operations for the world's leading auction house that she joined in 2012.

Christie's' Chinese milestone came in April last year when it was licensed for independent operations on the mainland. It was the first sole-funded foreign fine art auction house to get that government approval.
