In addition, tianyancha data show that Ma Yun still has the actual control of 611 enterprises, of which more than 100 are cancelled, and about 500 enterprises are still in existence. According to the regulations of the central bank, a company with more than 5% equity after penetrating the n-tier has actual control.
As for Ma Yun's future, in an open letter released on Teachers' day last year, Ma Yun said he would return to education. " I still have many beautiful dreams about my future development. As you know, I am a restless person. In addition to continuing to serve as a partner of Alibaba and making efforts and contributions to the partner organization mechanism, I want to return to education and do what I love will make me very excited and happy, "Ma said.
At the same time, in a public speech on August 28, Ma Yun also said that his resignation in September does not mean retirement. " I still have two weeks to be chairman of Alibaba, but it doesn't mean I don't start a business, it doesn't mean I retire. The world is so beautiful. It's good for us to do more, try more, toss more and see more. "
