After studying the revenue of China's public listed companies for three years, Forbes China magazine has released the names of China's best CEOs.

The average salary of top CEOs in China is about 1.89 million yuan, less than a third of last year's because some of the top paid chief executives, such as Tencent's Pony Ma, did not make it to this year's list.
