Since 2013, Jack Ma has begun to plan his retirement life. Jack Ma first resigned as CEO of Alibaba, and then a few days ago, he resigned as chairman of Alibaba’s board of directors.
As we all know, Jack Ma founded Alibaba, but Alibaba does not belong to Jack Ma. In Jack Ma’s own words, Alibaba is a company that will survive for 102 years. One person cannot change this direction. If Alibaba wants to become a company that will last for 102 years, it must rely on the inheritance of principles! And Ma Yun’s retreat is for Ali’s advancement. You know, Jack Ma is only 56 years old this year, which is his prime year as an entrepreneur. But Jack Ma chose to retire at such a time, but it is worth mentioning that Jack Ma is still Alibaba’s “lifelong partner”!
Where will Alibaba go after Jack Ma?
What is certain is that after Ali left Jack Ma, Ali has still made progress on various fronts in the past two years. Many people say that Zhang Yong is not a qualified leader. But judging from the report card Zhang Yong handed over, Zhang Yong has done a very good job in office.
In the past year, Alibaba’s market value has increased from US$450 billion to US$790 billion, and its diversified layout will only go further and become more stable in the future.
To take a step back, the reason why Jack Ma dares to choose to retire at such a time is that Jack Ma has personal plans to do charity and education. Another thing is that Alibaba’s current talent team is still very full, which provides favorable conditions for Jack Ma to retire early!
Jack Ma’s approach to employing people?
It is strange to say that Jack Ma himself is a person who does not understand computers, but Jack Ma used the Internet to create a global Internet giant. This can only illustrate one problem, that is, Jack Ma appoints people on their merits!
From Ali 18 Arhats in the early stage, to Cai Chongxin, Zhang Yong, Wang Jian and others later. Jack Ma has taken the advantages of these people to the extreme. For example, Wang Jian, how did Alibaba’s cloud computing come about? To put it bluntly, so many people said that Wang Jian was a liar, but Jack Ma insisted on giving Dr. Wang Jian some time. Looking at it now, Wang Jian did not fail Ma Yun, and Ma Yun succeeded Wang Jian!
Let’s talk about Ali’s 18 Arhats. Nowadays, there are not many Ali 18 Arhats who serve as senior executives in Ali. The one who knows them best is Jack Ma’s apprentice Peng Lei! Of course, most of the net worths in Arhat 18 are upwards of 1 billion!
What do you think of Jack Ma’s retirement?
As a post-90s generation, I have witnessed Jack Ma go from unknown to well-known, then become the richest man in China, and gradually establish the Alibaba Cloud ecosystem.
Taobao and Tmall have changed the way we shop. Alipay has changed the way we pay. In a word, Alibaba’s ecology has now been integrated into our lives.
After retirement, Jack Ma will not be idle. In Jack Ma’s own words, he will spend more time on education and charity in the future. Jack Ma likes to speak, and he has also said that he was most happy and liked his previous teaching career. If he had to choose again, he would definitely not make such a big business.
For most entrepreneurs, Jack Ma’s entrepreneurial thinking has influenced a large number of people. Today is very cruel, tomorrow will be even crueler, and the day after tomorrow will be wonderful! Because of trust, we see!
Many people like Jack Ma, and many people don’t like Jack Ma. Whether you like it or not, Jack Ma is still the same Jack Ma. Let us wish Teacher Ma that I can still listen to your speeches in the days to come!
