The state once again took a shot at Ma Yun.
This philanthropic entrepreneur in the hearts of the public, now the representative of capitalists, has been a businessman for more than twenty years, established the Alibaba empire, created new jobs for countless people, and made physical stores hate him with itchy men.
Once again on the blacklist of the state shot.
From the praise of the relevant departments by name, the words spoken are publicized as inspiring quotes, and then to the relevant departments naming and criticizing, reprimanding and losing the sense of social responsibility, in fact, it is only two or three years.
From fame to notoriety, Jack Ma, what exactly did he do? What did the state do to him this time, to sanction him?
After Ma Yun announced his retirement in 2019 and no longer controlled Alibaba, he returned to his "original intention", founded a school, and became the principal.
This school is Lakeside University.
And this time, the state sanctioned this time, it is also this lakeside university.
Although it is called a university, the admission standards are far from ordinary universities.
First of all, the acceptance rate of Lakeside University is less than 3%, and Harvard's acceptance rate is higher than that of Lakeside University, and although it is called a university, it does not admit college students.
Looking at his admissions criteria, we know who the target group of this university is.
First, it is necessary to have more than three years of experience in starting a business, and the scale has reached 30 people, and the annual revenue has exceeded 30 million. I would like to ask, which school recruits students to see how much money they make?
Second, the tuition fee of 360,000 yuan is the simplest condition, and for entrepreneurs with tens of millions of revenues, this condition is not a condition.
Third, you must have three referees, one of whom must be designated as a referee, so that you can enter the school.
If the first two points, there are still a large number of people can achieve, the last point, it screened out a lot of people, this is to test your connections, just have money and ability is not enough, but also to know their own people, you can really enter the school, this is the most core point.
After reading the admissions conditions, we know that although it is called a university, it is not half a cent related to the university, and it is easy to misunderstand, not so much a school, but rather a circle of rich people, a club of rich people, just discussing business things together, not spending time and drinking.
Such a person who bears the name of the school but does the behavior of attracting high-end elites has been directly curbed by the state and directly removed from lakeside University.
Lakeside University, renamed the "Lakeside Entrepreneurship Research Center", although it still sounds inconsistent with the actual purpose, but it is much better than the university.
Ma Yun, who had just sat in his dream position as principal for six years, chose to resign as principal and suspended the enrollment plan that was originally in March.
Although it is not said what the reason is, at such a level, it also makes people wonder whether Ma Yun's behavior has attracted the attention of the state, so he resigned to reduce attention?
A university founded by a well-known entrepreneur has attracted hundreds of well-known Chinese entrepreneurs, and the state has withdrawn the name of "university", why has netizens applauded? Is this "university" really that simple? Why are you speculating about the purpose behind it?
Lakeside University's class model is more severe than many universities, in addition to the high threshold of admissions requirements, if you miss two courses in a semester, then you will be directly withdrawn, you know, these are entrepreneurs worth tens of millions, but Ma Yun's Lakeside University is, saying that if you withdraw from school, you will be withdrawn, there is no emotion at all.
And in the few years of class, entrepreneurs are like real students, they have to go to class on time every day, and after graduation, they will have a diploma, which is like a university.
Such regulations also make all the entrepreneurs in this school more closely related, because they stay together for a long time to take classes and discuss business views.
Merchants are inherently profit-seeking.
In such a school, it happens to bring together capable people from all walks of life, who can find good "allies" with each other, and this cooperative relationship also makes all the people in this place, like spider webs, connected to each other.
So can we guess that when they cooperate with each other, after they have a closer relationship with each other, the market is controlled by them?
After all, Ma Yun also made bold remarks that more than half of the world's top 500 companies would come from Lakeside University.
If it really comes to that day, it may seem good on the surface, but behind the scenes?
Entrepreneurs are also called capitalists, when their power is getting bigger and bigger, after covering every industry, is it not pricing power or the like, in their hands?
We can imagine that they can work together to push costs lower and get bigger profits.
Similarly, they can also join hands to raise the market price, the market is not following the low price of people, is to watch someone raise the price, they will naturally keep up, there is money is not earned is a fool.
And when more than half of the top five hundred are from a school, this kind of force, you can guess, don't feel exaggerated, capital is more exaggerated than we think.
Now, some people think that they are still only a few hundred entrepreneurs, but these hundreds of entrepreneurs are worth tens of millions?
When these hundreds of entrepreneurs introduce others in, this expansion speed, you can imagine.
In ancient times, there was an East Forest College, which brought together scholars from all over the world, and at first it was to discuss literature, but when the number of people reached a certain number, the things discussed began to be socially sensitive topics.
And because most of the scholars in the world are from donglin academy and have inextricable relationships, they are equivalent to grasping the mouth of the world, and when the orders issued above are contrary to their ideas, they use their own mouths to begin to shake the people's ideas.
Lakeside University, like the commercial version of Donglin College? It's just that it's still just beginning, and it's not as harmful as Donglin School, but if it goes on, what will it be like in the next six years?
Ma Yun's purpose of building the school is still just our speculation, everything can not be said too thoroughly, but everyone must understand.
Today, Ma Yun has been interviewed by the relevant departments more than three times, Alibaba has also been fined 18.3 billion yuan because of monopoly, Ma Yun's confident Ant Financial has also been suspended, the community group purchase has also been criticized by the People's Daily, and the "996 is a blessing" remarks in the internal meeting have made Ma Yun's good reputation in the hearts of netizens collapse in an instant.
Then the current founding school was removed from the list of universities, and enrollment was suspended.
Ma Yun is really not going well, but from these things, we recall Ma Yun's famous saying, "I am not interested in money."
Is Ma really not interested in money? Is there one thing he doesn't do for money?
For the sake of profit, Ma Yun tried to monopolize the market, even if he knew that this was explicitly prohibited in China, he still tried to risk it.
For the sake of money, Ant Financial leverages a hundred times super high leverage, can he not know how big the risk is? Once there is an accident, China's economic market will bear trillions of losses.
But directly proportional to the risk is the huge profit, and Ma Yun also through the company's equity structure, only need to bear 10 million risks, in exchange for at least 10 billion profits.
For money, join the community group purchase, squeeze the living space of small stalls and hawkers, use strong capital power, cut off the purchase channels of small traders from the source, and when there is only capital left on the market, the pricing will be capital.
Or for money, Ma Yun founded Lakeside University, bringing together hundreds of entrepreneurs, weaving a network of relationships, intertwined, and each other can get closer cooperation and more business cooperation.
Is this Ma Yun, who is not interested in money? How does it seem that he is more interested in money than anyone else?
But what is even more difficult to think about is that if he is only interested in money, it will not cause too bad an impact, and the country will always stare at him, but if he is interested in something higher than money?
If businessmen want to control the right to speak, what kind of chaos will the market be? Now you can imagine it with your eyes closed.
Ma Yun, what is your true face? Are you really lawless?
If you like this issue, you can like and pay attention.
