She used to be a receptionist at Ali, but Jack Ma gave her shares for an unprecedented time. How is she now?

Anyone who is familiar with Jack Ma knows that Jack Ma has officially stepped down on Teacher’s Day last year and started to retire. Last year, Jack Ma’s departure was also the 20th anniversary of the founding of Ali.

In the eyes of most people, Jack Ma is the representative of the business community of this era. In fact, Jack Ma is not just a businessman. He represents an era, a person who contributes to society and people. The establishment of Alibaba has made people feel the convenience of online shopping. The mobile payment he led the team to develop has also changed people's lifestyles.

However, before leaving office, Jack Ma has set a general direction for the future development of Alibaba and made Zhang Yong the successor. Zhang Yong will continue to lead Ali towards good The direction of development. In addition, Jack Ma also arranged a number of business elites for Zhang Yong to help Zhang Yong manage the company, so that Ali can develop more steadily. Among these elites, the most eye-catching is Dong Wenhong, chairman of Cainiao.com.

Although Dong Wenhong is not Ali’s richest entrepreneur, her life experience is worthy of our attention. In 2000, Dong Wenhong applied for the position of Alibaba's administrative assistant, but failed. However, Alibaba did not directly let her go back home, but asked her to do front office work.

In fact, the front desk of a company represents the image of a company in a sense, so Dong Wenhong’s daily workload is very large. He receives important guests almost every day, and these guests Among them are many well-known domestic bosses. Dong Wenhong is cautious every day, for fear of making any mistakes that will damage the company's image.

Later, Dong Wenhong offered to resign, but what she did not expect was that Ma Yun personally found her, hoping that she could stay in Ali, and promised to give her 0.2% of Ali's shares. When Ma Yun left, he said to her: You can work in Ali with peace of mind. If Ali goes public, the market value will reach hundreds of billions, and your 0.2% of the shares are enough to make you a billionaire.

Ma Yun’s arrival made Dong Wenhong flattered, so she decided not to leave. In the next work, Dong Wenhong put in more effort and gradually entered the company's senior management from the front desk, sales, customer service, and administration. In 2013, Dong Wenhong was appointed Chairman and CEO of Cainiao Network. In 2017, Dong Wenhong was appointed as the chief product officer of Ali.

Twenty years later, Jack Ma promised to give Dong Wenhong 0.2% of the shares and cashed out, and Dong Wenhong got these rewards through his own efforts. Today, Alibaba's market value has reached 520 billion US dollars, and the Hong Kong stock market value has exceeded 4 trillion Hong Kong dollars. Based on this calculation, the value of Dong Wenhong’s 0.2% shares has reached RMB 8 billion.

Nobody would have thought that a receptionist could counterattack and become a billionaire. Dong Wenhong’s life experience sounds like a story, it’s really amazing, but in reality It really happened. In the eyes of many people, Dong Wenhong seemed to have some luck back then, because it was almost impossible for a company's front desk to obtain company shares.

In fact, it is not accidental that Dong Wenhong can get Ali shares. She can be reused by Jack Ma, and she must have something extraordinary, otherwise no boss will give shares to employees for no reason. After Dong Wenhong stayed in Ali, everything she did did not disappoint Ma Yun. If you have to say that Dong Wenhong was lucky, it can only be said that Dong Wenhong was lucky enough to meet a good boss like Jack Ma.
