Jack Ma is neither a "bad man" nor a "good man."
He rose from being an ordinary English teacher to becoming China’s richest person because of his bold ventures in the internet industry.
The business empire he built—Alibaba—transformed the way Chinese people do business and shop. That is his admirable side.
But he grew too greedy for money and power.
He believed he could, like the Wall Street bankers in the US, manipulate finance to gain influence over the Chinese government—making the entire country bear the consequences of his high-risk, highly leveraged financing schemes.
Fortunately, after the failure of his financial empire’s IPO, he went into self-imposed exile.
Today, he is no longer China’s richest person, but he still maintains a firm grip on Alibaba.
He has become more low-key and pragmatic.
At last, he has come to terms with who he truly is.
The old Jack Ma disappeared.👇
The new Jack Ma will better serve his Alibaba and his country.
