Today is Alibaba 10 birthday, and I apply to resign as the founder.

Founder of Alibaba, this is a title that once made me proud. I used to think that I was qualified to continue working in Alibaba, where outstanding talents came forth in large numbers, and the identity of the founder was the only reason. So when you proposed the 10th anniversary of Alibaba at the beginning of the year, we formally bid farewell to the founder era and ushered in the partner era, my heart was filled with deep loss and sadness, and I felt that Alibaba no longer needed us.

Ten years ago, I never thought Alibaba would be what it is today. In those years, we devoted our efforts to the lakeside garden and loved our baby. Today, it has undertaken such a huge mission and carried the dreams of thousands of people in Qian Qian. If we don't face up to today's reality with a more objective and calm eye, invite more talents to join us with a more open and broad mind, and look at the future culture with a more appreciative, respectful and inclusive attitude, Alibaba's innovation vitality will gradually fade, and Alibaba will have no future.

Founder is a symbol belonging to the past. The title of the founder can be put down, and the dependence and inertia on the inherent model of the past should also be put down, but the things that touched us and inspired us will not be put down.

So please allow me to resign as the founder, go into battle lightly and start over. Thank you.

Zhou Xiang applied to resign from Founder.

Dear Jack:

I formally and solemnly resigned as the founder of Alibaba this week, and hereby apply.

Thank god, Alibaba can develop to this point. I know very well that this is not the result of my personal efforts. Just like farmers sow and water, it is God who gives life to crops and makes them grow. Alibaba is similar. The favorable weather, geographical location and people make Alibaba grow and develop.

However, since 10, especially in recent years, my head has been shrouded in the aura of the founder, and no one disagrees. It seems that the growth of Alibaba is our credit. In the company, my every move, every word and deed will produce too much weight for others to see. I know that it is not that I am better than others, but that others can't treat a "founder" with a normal heart.

Today is the tenth anniversary of Alibaba. I want to take this opportunity to resign as the founder of Alibaba. Because it has become a fact. A century-old enterprise, no one can always bear the name of "founder".

After resigning as the founder, I will devote myself to Ali's daily work with a more normal attitude. I never felt better than others, but I just entered the business a few years earlier. I am willing to be a grower and irrigator, work in Ali's fields, and do my part for Ali's development with countless Ali people.

I wish Alibaba, a teenager, can grow healthier and more energetic, benefit the people and give back to the society.

May God help us!

Daishan applied to resign as founder.

Manager ma,

July 4th, 1998, was my first day in Beijing. The plane arrived in Beijing very late. It rained cats and dogs that night. Looking back now, that heavy rain predicted a different 10 year.

When I returned to the lake at 3 am today, I saw the familiar corridor, coffee table, toilet and photos, and suddenly felt that time flies. In the past 10 years, many stories have happened and experienced each other. Those stories and experiences are worth cherishing for a lifetime. I thought I could write a lot of things, but now I find it a little messy, even a little messy.

10 years later, what I want to say most is gratitude. Thank Han Min for introducing me to Beijing. Thank you for your kind invitation to attend the meeting in the basement of Beijing. Thanks for joining the entrepreneurial team; Thank you for constantly giving me new posts in the past; Thank you for your absolute trust in me. In the eyes of many people, I am a person who dares to do things. In fact, I need to thank everyone for their trust in me 100%. 10 In Ali, I got married from an ignorant girl, had my own daughter, a house, a car and a group of reliable partners. This is the wealth of a lifetime.

I was a little surprised but not shocked when I heard that I was going to be posted on the wall for the first time. I know that I can't accomplish that mission without a "big mind". After working for 10 years, I sometimes feel tired. In the past struggle, once the word "founder" jumped out, it would suppress the truest thoughts inside. However, this is not wrong. But today, looking to the future 10, we old bones really need to put down our heavy "responsibilities" and do what we want to do to realize our dreams.

I walked to this position in ignorance and assumed this responsibility. Letting go today will definitely make my heart an empty cup, and look at what happened in the past and what will happen in the future with a peaceful mind. After nine months' rest from pregnancy to childbirth, I returned to work again and suddenly found that I was no longer just in charge of this job, but "love" from my heart. I like my present job and what Taobao has to do, and I know there is still a long way to go, but my mind is not as worried and fearful as before, but full of curiosity and expectation. This feeling is the best in my 10 years.

I held a strategy sharing meeting last week and understood your last speech. But I want to know why I can't simply say how I feel like you. After talking with a friend, I realized that things that go deep into the blood need to jump to be discovered. Therefore, I believe that without the identity of "founder", this ability to break first and then stand, and then break and stand again will be improved.

"Calm" is a realm. I hope that in the next 10 years, I can feel and appreciate the meaning of "peace" to life.

Daishan

Wu Yongming resigned as the founder.

Ma Zong and all his brothers and sisters.

18*X= 16000？ This question is reserved for 16000 people, because every Ali is making history and creating the future! ! !

Our company has little time to regret the past, record achievements and always pursue future changes. Perhaps because of this, with the cooperation of Qi Xin with16,000 people, the company has come today without fear.

In the next decade, the company's mission will give us the opportunity to touch the pulse of 654.38 billion consumers. This is a brand-new era for the company and me.

In such a period, letting go of the title of "founder" can help me understand our cause and look at our company from a new perspective.

2009.09.09, really start from scratch, clear the memory and restart.

I also look forward to continuing to pursue my dream and our new commercial civilization in the next decade of Alibaba, and taking another wonderful ten-year journey.

Allow me to briefly record the past:

Always remember Jack and Cathy's love for our big brother and sister, and the skill of "three buttons and one button" at the poker table.

Always remember ToTo playing Red Alert with us (although I'm not good at it) and Winamp skin over Yang's head.

Always remember Lucy's busy work for everyone in the lakeside garden.

We will always remember Trudy, Jane and Julie singing songs for everyone on the radio in the lakeside garden, which is one of our joys.

Always remember the Jinhua shortcake brought by the children and the perfect trip arranged for us.

I always remember that Lao Lou went to Lao Lou's house to fix the computer for dinner, and my sister-in-law introduced me to my girlfriend, hehe.

Always remember lions, babies and me. After the three programs went online, we went to Xinhua Bookstore and bought a good one. Together, we wrote a website with ancient perl.

I will always remember the scene when Tony led us in and out of the computer room and installed servers in the United States.

I will always remember Simon crying and singing our wine when he left Beijing.

Always remember Raymond, an American relative in Beijing.

Always remember Xiaojin's delicious food at home in Beijing and her sister-in-law's humor.

Always remember Mary and James, our friendship in the basement of Beijing, and the years when we lived together in Wenquan New Village.

I will always remember Joe's sweating appearance when he first came to the lakeside garden, and admire your courage to step into Hangzhou residential buildings from Hong Kong.

Starting today, we are old friends after ten years, not just former colleagues.

Please accept my resignation to General Manager Ma.

Besides, I'm looking forward to a new round of job interviews?

Dear Ma Zong, dear siblings:

Ten years, suddenly like a blink of an eye. Today, I still feel in a trance. Is this all true? At the beginning, the noisy debate scene of more than a dozen people by the lake evolved into a shocking cause of 16000 people; At the beginning, the ethereal and persistent dream in our hearts has become a reality, and it has expanded rapidly at an incredible speed. At the moment, no language can objectively describe my complicated feelings, but I must say something.

"Lucky"-Teacher Ma, you are the most idealistic and persistent person I have ever seen in my life. On the contrary, I have always been indifferent to progress. If it weren't for fate, Alibaba was just the news I accidentally read in the newspaper. Such a great cause that goes down in history, let me experience it without asking for anything in return, is the greatest blessing in life.

"Pride"-Today's economy is expanding, but the world is getting worse. How many wealth and stories are hidden behind the unknown complexity and darkness. As for us, our story is so simple and incredibly pure that I often proudly declare to my friends that "every penny is clean". The complaints and tears gathered by more than a dozen of us at the same time, and the contradictions and conflicts in the company's development process are too pure, too pure and too precious compared with the current Jianghu world. I am proud, for our story, for a dozen brothers and sisters, for every Ali.

"Thank you"-actually, these two words can't express anything at all. Talking too much will make you feel vain. But I still want to say thank you-thank you teacher Ma, thank you for being with more than a dozen brothers and sisters in the past ten years, and thank you for every contribution of every Ali person in the past ten years.

"relatives"-for ten years, we have lived together day and night, separated from each other, but we are not worried; In the past ten years, we have laughed at each other countless times for success and victory, and we are deeply saddened by each other's misfortunes. Our friendship goes beyond the words of colleagues, comrades-in-arms, teachers and students. We are relatives! Life is short, there are several decades, and how many people can spend ten years with you. Dear friends, we must look at each other.

Mr. Ma, in the tenth year of Ali, I made a lot of nonsense about resigning from the title of founder. I wish our Alibaba will be more brilliant in the next decade with the efforts of every later Ali.

I am here to convey

welcome

The resignation of Lion's founder

My resignation

-

Dear Jack:

Unconsciously, I have joined Alibaba for ten years. In the past ten years, I have paid a lot and gained a lot. We are particularly proud of the recognition of our members. What is particularly worth cherishing is our friendship, which has already surpassed my colleagues and become an indelible part of my life, making everyone my most trusted person. Thank you for your help, support and tolerance over the years, so that I dare to face all kinds of difficulties, because I know that I have a group of determined comrades around me. I am proud to be a member of the founder team!

In the past ten years, Alibaba's dream has attracted a large number of outstanding talents to join. These respectable and lovely colleagues showed professionalism, vitality and passion, and they promoted the company to make great progress. I thank my colleagues in all the subsidiaries and departments where I have worked. They accepted me, tolerated me and worked with them, which promoted my study and growth. I found that there are so many Ali people struggling for the same great ideal, and their spirit moved me! I believe they can lead Alibaba by going up one flight of stairs.

I think it's time to shed the aura of the founder, unload the responsibility of the founder, pass the baton to these enterprising Ali people in my heart, and allow me to choose my work and life more freely in my own way. Therefore, I decided to apply for resignation as the founder. No matter what the future holds, I will always love our career and Alibaba. If I can continue to contribute to the company, I will put aside the past and start again, and continue to struggle with a more peaceful and free heart.

Please ask General Manager Ma for approval.

Applicant: Shi Yufeng.

Manager ma,

I think Ali's 102 must be like this morning's relay race, and must gain new strength by changing sticks. Therefore, I highly recognize the decision to end the founder era and enter the partner era. I believe that Ali will have 180 and 1800 partners in the next ten years, which will be stronger than the original 18.

Therefore, I think that "going to the square" should be thorough, hanging on the wall and laying on the floor. The "partner system" should also be thorough, not only the interests, honors, responsibilities and powers should be attributed to them, so that they can inspire Ali DNA and create their own times! !

As an out-and-out grassroots, I am grateful to this great era, to Mr. Ma, and to our team that has held on to 10 with mixed feelings. I've had enough today. Whether it is material or spiritual. So, whether you hang this fake name on the wall or lay it on the ground, it's no problem. It's up to you. There is no opinion.

I will try to forget the identity of my founder, work happily and live seriously. I am in good shape in the company at present. Very happy. I will mention it when I am upset! !

Please ask General Manager Ma to approve my resignation as founder. Please take care of General Manager Ma, too! ! !

Because I was busy coordinating the activities of 10 anniversary in those days, I wrote it in a hurry. I'm embarrassed to send it when I see other people's beautiful writing, hehe.

Manager ma,

After ten years in Ali, the company has developed from 18 employees to 17 employees today. In this decade, there are many beautiful memories for me to cherish. Alibaba's success not only gives us "freedom of choice", but also gives me a group of friends who trust each other and share weal and woe.

Ali's ten years have taught me to trust, tolerate and face everything with a smile. As many people agree: Alibaba is not a career, it is my life.

Thank you, Mr. Ma, and thank everyone who walked through all this with me!

Founder is an identity that makes it easier for me to get help from my colleagues, which makes me feel that I need to work harder for the company than others, and also makes me feel some pressure. I like this identity in my heart because it brings a lot of convenience. At the same time, it is also very contradictory, because it makes me feel the need to remind myself of what I have done.

Therefore, for the sake of the company's greater dream, and for the sake of making my contribution to Alibaba more easily in the next ten years, I hereby apply to resign as the founder of Alibaba, and hope that General Manager Ma will approve it!

Jin Yingyuan

Dear General Manager Ma,

Today is the tenth anniversary of Alibaba. I am very grateful to you and your colleagues for your tolerance, care and encouragement in the past ten years, which has made me more confident, more devoted and more open-minded than ten years ago.

I hereby apply for resignation as founder. The purpose of my resignation is not to leave this excellent collective and this exciting cause, but to put an end to the progress in the past ten years and start all over again.

Prepare for the next decade.

Please approve.

Hereby,

welcome
