It has been 114 days since Ma Yun appeared at the “Ali Day” event on May 10 this year.

On the second day of Jack Ma’s appearance, on September 2, Alibaba Group announced the launch of “Alibaba’s Top Ten Initiatives to Promote Common Wealth.” It is to promote the construction of agricultural industrialization.

A mainland netizen said, “Ma Yun visited the vegetable shed. The long-lost Ma boss has recently kept a low profile.” “Invested 100 billion and landed safely.” “It means that there is no way out.” “It’s okay. Don’t come out. Be careful.” ” This is to tell everyone that he hasn’t entered yet.”

Recently, Alibaba Group has become the focus of public opinion in mainland China. After the company’s sexual assault scandal broke out, the Chinese Communist Party’s official media issued a letter to criticize Alibaba, causing market turmoil, and Alibaba’s stock price fell.

After Alibaba was heavily fined RMB 18.2 billion by the authorities on the grounds of “anti-monopoly”, the pressure on Chinese technology companies increased sharply, and many companies were interviewed or fined by the authorities. Companies such as Tencent, Meituan, Xiaomi, and ByteDance have repeatedly received fines for “monopoly” and “information security” reasons.

On August 17, the Central Committee of Finance and Economics of the Communist Party of China proposed “Common Prosperity” and called it “to build a basic institutional arrangement for the coordination of primary distribution, redistribution, and three-time distribution.” Subsequently, large Chinese e-commerce companies such as Tencent, JD.com, and Pinduoduo successively announced large-scale donations to the CCP’s “Common Wealth”.

Hu Ping, the honorary editor-in-chief of “Beijing Spring” magazine, once told Epoch Times reporters that these mainland wealthy people donated money out of fear, hoping to avoid government suppression. He said: “They are saving money and avoiding disasters. If they don’t donate, will the government trouble them, and if they find other problems, the economic loss will be even greater. (The CCP) is now calling on everyone to donate voluntarily. In fact, It’s forcing everyone to pay.”

Hu Ping said that China’s current economic situation is not good, natural and man-made disasters, the (CCP) government is working hard on private enterprises and asking them to donate more money. Using this excuse, private enterprises have suffered great losses.
