What happened to Ma Yun, Zhihu?

The first thing: ants are suspended from listing

The first thing to do is to suspend the listing of Ant Group, which happened at the beginning of 202 1,1. After Ma Yun was interviewed by relevant departments, Ant Group announced the suspension of listing procedures. As for why, the reason is simple, because behind the market value of RMB 2 trillion, it is the uncertainty factor of the capital market.

There are financial risks in the operation mode of uneven bars. For the sake of safety, the listing procedure is suspended. Since then, ants have also indicated that they will actively rectify.

The second thing: being investigated by antitrust.

At the end of June, 5438+February, 2020, Alibaba was investigated by anti-monopoly on suspicion of "two in one" monopoly. The day after the news came, Alibaba's share price plummeted and once fell below the $600 billion mark. Anti-monopoly investigation became a hot keyword at that time, and Alibaba was also involved.

It is worth mentioning that Alibaba did not declare the shares of Yintai Group before this, which led to the concentration of operators and was fined 500,000 yuan for monopoly. This is also an event in the anti-monopoly situation.

The third thing: community group buying welcomes supervision.

It seems that since April 2020, community group buying has become a new industry outlet. Didi, Meituan, JD.COM, Tencent and Ali all joined the game. Internet giants set their eyes on the people's food baskets, and quickly attracted users to place orders for purchases due to strategies such as low-price dumping and full return.

However, community group buying has also ushered in supervision. The State Administration of Market Supervision issued an announcement, which issued a "nine noes" to community group buying, including not dumping at low prices, not colluding with price increases, and not driving up prices. Do not kill big data and so on.

This means that the community group buying business developed by Ali has ushered in stricter supervision and it is impossible to form a monopoly in the future.

The fourth thing: take off the Internet deposit products.

Ant Group took the lead in launching Internet deposit products on Alipay platform, and Internet platforms such as Tencent, JD.COM and lufax followed suit. It was not until 65438+ 10/5 that it was officially confirmed that platforms such as Alipay could not sell Internet deposit products.

Losing the business of deposit products connected with banks will undoubtedly face major adjustments in the company's business. Taking off the shelf is not just for an enterprise platform, but for the whole industry. Under the general trend, ants can only embrace supervision and actively rectify.

abstract

Ma Yun has retired, but still holds shares in Ali and Ant Group, but no matter how the market changes, he can't stay out of it.
