Ma Yun showed up to greet the New Year, revealing the return signal behind him, and Alibaba's "big move" was coming
Jack Ma is a legend in Chinese business circles. Without the speech at the Bund Finance Summit in 2020, I believe that Jack Ma would still be active all over the world, participating in various forums to express his views, and even being warmly welcomed by leaders of various countries.
But the inappropriate remarks in 2020 directly pulled Ma Yun into the water, and Ma Yun's experience also illustrates a truth, that is, the higher you go, the heavier you fall, the more accomplished people are, and the more careful you need to be when speaking.
Shortly after the Bund financial summit, Jack Ma also paid a terrible price when Ant Financial, which was expected to be the largest IPO in Ant Financial Group's history, was suspended from listing, a delay that lasted for two years.
Jack Ma has also stepped down from almost all high-level positions, and the number of appearances is only a handful, and the news circulating on the Internet is no longer the news of Jack Ma's meeting with national leaders, but the news of going to Spain to play golf and go to Japan to live in seclusion.
It can be seen that Alibaba's Ma Yun era has come to an end, but more and more news proves that although the relationship between Ma Yun and Alibaba is declining, Ma Yun has ushered in a new return state.
Shortly before the arrival of the Lunar New Year, Ma Yun, who had not appeared for a long time, sent his New Year blessings to the people of the whole country through a short **, and more importantly, in **, you can see that Ma Yun's eyes have a light again.
Today's Ma Yun, surrounded by red scarves on Chinese New Year's Eve, greets netizens for the New Year, which is completely different from the previous Ma Yun, this time Ma Yun appeared on the scene of Alibaba's internal activities, the whole person looked very pale and emaciated, and the dress was also very low-key.
In addition, Ma Yun's hair is also very gray, and there are also very obvious wrinkles on his forehead, which has actually been greatly affected by the previous speech incident.
Well, now Jack Ma's state has more or less recovered, and the reason why Jack Ma was able to recover may have something to do with the loss of control of Ant Financial Group some time ago.
Ma Yun has fallen from the peak, and the core problem is mainly here in Ant Financial, if it were not for the listing of Ant Financial, Ma Yun would not have had the original remarks, and there would not be a series of follow-up problems.
Some time ago, Ant Financial Group suddenly announced that after this change, Ma Yun will no longer be the actual controller of Ant Financial Group.
In the past, Jack Ma was the actual controller of Ant Financial Group, because Jack Ma and Jing Xiandong, Hu Xiaoming, Jiang Fang and other persons acting in concert jointly exercised share voting rights, so Ma Yun owned 5346% of the voting rights of the shares.
But now, after the adjustment, 10 people, including Jack Ma, Ant Financial executives, and labor representatives, will independently exercise their share voting rights, and Jack Ma's voting rights will increase from 5346% down to 6208%, which means that Ant Financial Group no longer has the surname Ma.
Perhaps it was this change that saved Jack Ma from his previous turbulent state.
Mr. Ma is no longer the de facto controller of Ant Financial, and Alibaba's stake has fallen below 5 percent, prompting Mr. Ma to try to weaken his ties to the company as much as possible.
Ma Yun said something at the time, he said that his biggest regret was the creation of Alibaba, he missed the days when he was a teacher with a salary of 91 yuan, and he was also rumored to be by the outside world"I regret raising Ali Ma Yun"of the stalks.
Some people may say that Jack Ma is an out-and-out person"Palace of Versailles", but looking at Ma Yun's state now, it is completely Ma Yun's true temperament, because people are in a high position, many things will be inadequate, and Ma Yun is the same.
Now Jack Ma no longer has a large number of senior positions, but he is no longer the real controller of Ant Financial, and Jack Ma is relieved that he can do more of what he wants to do in the future.
As Ma Yun's appearances become more and more frequent, I think it is only a matter of time before Ma Yun returns, just like Liu Qiangdong's frequent appearances in recent months, the eldest brother has abdicated and avoided the limelight at critical moments.
Liu Qiangdong is like this, Ma Yun is also like this, and then Ma Yun will inevitably come back strongly, Ma Yun's next goal is to develop agriculture, for which Ma Yun has been to Japan, the Netherlands and other places to study Xi, to understand the sustainable development of animal husbandry and fisheries.
In fact, as early as 2017, Jack Ma proposed"$1,000 per mu income plan"The plan covers 25 provinces and 100 million rural people, and Ma has been working hard to solve this problem.
If Jack Ma succeeds in bringing the world's agricultural technology back to China, it will be a good thing for Chinese farmers. Once the target of 1,000 yuan per mu is achieved, the income of Chinese peasants will be greatly increased, and the goal of getting rich first will also be achieved.
Now, Jack Ma's state of mind has returned, he is no longer subject to the involvement of Alibaba and Ant Financial, and he can let go of his hands and feet to achieve his big dreams. Do you think Jack Ma can help Chinese farmers achieve common prosperity?
