On September 12, 2019, People's Daily: "There is no so-called Jack Ma era, only Jack Ma of the era".
There is no era of Jack Ma
Being evaluated by the "People's Daily", whether good or bad, must have a great impact.
In "Jack Ma's Ali and the Development of Society" and "Jack Ma's Ali and the Development of Society (2) - Lakeside University Closed", they respectively explained why Jack Ma's Ali's Ant Financial was suspended from listing and why Lakeside University established by Jack Ma was closed, and today I will talk about "Jack Ma of the Times".
What contributions has Jack Ma made to society who can leave a strong mark in the era in which he lives?
I think this issue must be clarified, and only by understanding this issue will our elites have an example or standard, otherwise they are likely to go astray. They may have done this on purpose, or perhaps inadvertently. We only need to set an example and set the standard. We can't expect our entrepreneurs to be philanthropists.
China's wifi7 technology leakage, electromagnetic catapult technology leakage, Dongfeng 31 missile technical parameters leakage, in fact, are all done by elite talents, how can ordinary people have such qualifications.
Before talking about Jack Ma Ali, we must first figure out what China and the world need at the moment?
What the world needs most today is peace and development.
Peace and development
In the vast universe, the earth is an almost insignificant existence, and the earthlings have been looking for so many years, but they have not found a living planet, and they have always been a lonely existence.
Therefore, the people of the earth must work together to seek development, not only for a better life, but also for the development of science and technology to cope with the crisis. Earth's humans can't keep fighting on a snail's horn.
Peace and development, in a peaceful international environment, actively carry out international cooperation, give full play to the comparative advantages of each country or region, so that everyone can achieve common prosperity. This is the prevailing ideal in the world today.
There are two main conditions for close cooperation between countries and regions in the world. The first is a good social environment, and it is not possible to have turmoil all day long, and the second is convenient communication channels.
Convenient communication channels mainly ensure the smooth flow of people, logistics, capital and information.
The flow of people and logistics requires convenient road, rail and air transportation.
Convenient transportation
China is engaged in infrastructure construction, and the increasingly perfect transportation system provides strong hardware support for e-commerce, so it is said that Jack Ma's Ali has caught up with the good times.
However, China Post has also caught up with the same era, but the logistics efficiency is not as high as Taobao, which proves that Ma Yun Ali is actively using and developing the advantages of existing transportation resources, which has greatly improved China's logistics efficiency. Taobao's logistics has become a benchmark for latecomers, which is the first major contribution of Jack Ma Ali.
Taobao sells hundreds of millions of goods every day, and customers browse and place orders on the Internet, receive logistics orders, distribute them, and flow funds, and the amount of information collected, stored, and processed is extremely huge.
Let's take the flow of funds as an example to see how huge Taobao's data processing is. Perhaps in order to clarify the division of labor and improve work efficiency, Taobao has to find a fund to be responsible for its capital flow. Taobao initially found powerful fund companies such as Huaxia, but because of the inability to negotiate the profit sharing, it finally found Tianhong Fund.
Tianhong Fund
Tianhong Fund is willing to cooperate with Taobao.
Founded on November 8, 2004, Tianhong Fund is one of the national public fund management companies approved by the China Securities Regulatory Commission. From 2004 to 2013, when he cooperated with Taobao, Tianhong has always been a little brother in the Chinese fund industry, a very small brother. At the beginning of January 2013, the Fund Research Center of Galaxy Securities released the "2012 Fund Management Company Asset Management Scale Ranking", China Asset Management ranked first with a management scale of 235.3 billion yuan, and Tianhong Fund ranked 50 with a fund management scale of 9.9 billion yuan, and there were 70 public funds in the year.
Due to its strong scale, China AMC Fund did not take the benefits of operating Taobao into account, while Tianhong Fund was different, and it could earn some points.
But this time, it is clear that China AMC has lost its eyes. In 2013, Tianhong Fund cooperated with Taobao to launch the first Internet fund, Tianhong Zeng Libao Money Market Fund (Yu Yu Bao), which changed the new format of the entire fund industry. This is of epoch-making significance, and since then, China has quickly and comprehensively entered the era of cashless and mobile phone payment. As of mid-2018, the number of users of Tianhong Fund has exceeded 500 million, making it the public fund company with the largest number of users in China. As of September 30, 2019, the scale of Yu'e Bao was RMB1,054.822 billion, making it the largest single fund in China.
Ant Financial
Of course, in the process of growing up, Alibaba has also paid more and more attention to the independent development of the financial field, and Ant Financial is its representative work. According to some data, Ant Group has more than 1 billion individual users, more than 80 million institutional users, and 118 trillion digital payment transactions. If these are all let Tianhong operate, what kind of existence will Tianhong have in the fund industry?
Creating an era of cashless and mobile phone payment is the second major contribution of Jack Ma Ali.
Mobile payment has laid a deep and broad software and hardware foundation for China to lead the world into the era of digital currency.
Here is a little story, after Taobao and Tianhong negotiated cooperation, Tianhong connected to Taobao's payment interface, the next day Tianhong's system collapsed, Taobao's capital flow frequency and quantity are too large, Tianhong finally saw what it means to be busy.
This is only the data pressure generated by the flow of funds, which shows how huge the amount of information collected, stored and processed by Taobao daily sales of hundreds of millions of goods, customers browsing and placing orders on the Internet, logistics orders, distribution, and capital circulation.
So, Jack Ma Ali created his own Alibaba Cloud.
Alibaba Cloud
Alibaba Cloud, a subsidiary of Alibaba Group, is now a leading global cloud computing and artificial intelligence technology company. It provides cloud computing services such as free trial, cloud server, cloud database, cloud security, and cloud enterprise applications, as well as big data and artificial intelligence services.
Now Alibaba Cloud, accounting for 45.5% of the mainland database market share, has become one of the world's three major cloud computing service providers, and Oracle's market share in China is getting smaller and smaller, with Huawei Cloud, Tencent Cloud, Baidu Cloud and other domestic cloud service systems have been listed, leaving less and less room for Oracle to survive, can only lose China, after continuous layoffs, and finally withdrew from the Chinese market.
Strengthening China's digital economy, this is the third major contribution of Jack Ma Alibaba.
Wuhan "Optics Valley"
Of course, Jack Ma's Alibaba Cloud would not work without China's mainframe computers, data centers, and Internet support. China has always attached great importance to the construction of supercomputers, and the list of the world's top 500 supercomputers in the first half of 2022 compiled by the international organization "TOP500" shows that among the 500 supercomputers with the strongest floating point computing performance in the world, the number of supercomputers deployed by China continues to rank first in the world, reaching 173, accounting for 34.6% of the total share, and only the United States and China, which rank second, are in one echelon. China has built many digital centers, and by the end of 2022, the data storage capacity in mainland China reached 724.5 exabytes, a year-on-year increase of 21.1%, accounting for 14.4% of the global total. Located in Optics Valley, Wuhan, Hubei Province, it has the world's largest R&D and production base of optical fiber preforms and optical fiber cables, providing strong support for China's high-speed Internet.
Therefore, Ma Yun Ali is fortunate to appear in China in this era.
Of course, Jack Ma Ali has generated economic benefits for our computers, data centers and Internet broadband, and the market demand has promoted the progress and capacity improvement of China's computer, data center and Internet technology, forming a positive feedback.
With the rapid entry of cross-border e-commerce and mobile payment into countries along the "Belt and Road", it has deeply affected the consumption habits and Xi habits of local residents.
AliExpress
As of 2017, an average of 1 in 13 people in Poland, with a population of 37.8 million, used AliExpress, and as of December 2017, AliExpress had more than 20 million unique users in Russia. For overseas consumers, the reasons for loving Chinese e-commerce platforms include "rich variety", "high quality and low price", "excellent after-sales service", etc. Through the cross-border e-commerce platform, residents of countries along the "Belt and Road" can buy goods from all over the world, and can put forward personalized and customized needs, and enjoy the dividends brought by high-quality manufacturing.
Many people may not know much about the AliExpress platform, as a member of Alibaba, "AliExpress" is a high-quality international market cross-border e-commerce platform, and it is also called the international version of Taobao for the majority of merchants. With the continuous development in recent years, AliExpress has become China's largest cross-border retail e-commerce platform, with a wide range of business coverage, strong business capabilities, and many countries, and has become the best choice for many domestic merchants to conduct cross-border retail!
Strengthening international trade ties and contributing to the "Belt and Road" is the fourth major contribution of Jack Ma Ali.
In the "flow of people, logistics, capital and information", Ma Yun Ali has at least activated "logistics, capital flow and information flow", which has played a role in promoting China's development and even international cooperation.
No one is perfect. Our regulatory department punishes evil and promotes good, so that one person, one thing, and one thing can make the best use of their strengths and avoid weaknesses, and make the best use of things.
