👆 With Chinese government taking an unfavourable stand against #JackMa recently, and with his sudden end of his public “shows” and appearances worldwide, now bytedance decides to take a hit against Alibaba in an attempt to boost their own publicity and popularity, it seems Alibaba, or rather should we say “Ma Yuen” is being the brunt of some parties trying to knock him of his throne or at least would enjoy watching him fall. Like wolves going after an injured deer. It’s interesting to see how these events will play out in the long run.
Personally, I feel Jack Ma got ahead of himself with his overnight sensation and fame … (And wealth.. ka ching!). Somehow he got carried away with himself 🤔 Doing publicity tours and making speeches internationally on his rags to riches story. Giving mentorships to many, many especially young people flocked to him like bees to honey, those seeking worldly fame & fortune, wanting to be the next Jack Ma, or Mark Zuckerberg, or at least for those dreaming of growing their own fortune or next evolutionary “empire”. Well at least he enjoyed some highlight and basked in his “glory days”.
Interesting to note though, one thing I learned from this is, nothing lasts. Empires (over the course of history have shown us) rise & fall, beauty ages, rags to riches and then for some it all goes to hell in a blink of an eye, marriages fail (for some 😅). Savour what you have here and now, for you do not know what tomorrow brings.
Food for thought! ðŸ¤
Anywho… #staysafe #stayhealthy
