Wow, the CEO is only 33.

You can google who her father is. It's a capital and guanxi/connection game, less about technology. Leveraging the direct/indirect capital resources they own and copycatting SV unicorn tech fashion in a walled huge market make them feel good. And they are really rich. It's their age now. edit: added guanxi/connection

  My failed attempt to find ANY information about his father somewhat proves your theory, or google doesn't wanna tell me?

    The President's father is Lenovo's founder. I don't know if the CEOs father is a big shot.

      I have to say it's a typical pattern for rich and connected kids in China to gain success. Top local college => top us college => join GS or whatever similar => trendy founder/CXO/etc. => Now it's their turn to have someone write articles to let ordinary people know they are not just rich, pretty/handsome, well-connected, but also they are super hard working, smart/intelligent, wise to earn their crowns all by themselves. We all know for well-connected in China, there are way more gates open to them. And the stake-holders in the western world can help them open other gates. As I said there is a long history of them doing all this kind of thing. Most people in China with enough experience in that society know that. It's just a capital-intensive pretend play. They are the players and you have to watch them show off how good they played through mass media and your news feed. If there was an earthquake in that circle, new batch of players would show up.

        Is that any different than how the USA works?
        LiweiZ 9y ago
        Maybe USA has 45%, while China has 95%. If so, the 50% here is the difference.
        LiweiZ 9y ago
        I forgot to mention the difference leaves different room for how much impact other factors can contribute to the final outcome, which, in my opinion, is more important.

      You are correct.

  I think you meant the president, Jean Liu, the president of Didi.
  - LiweiZ 9y ago
    Yes. I did not know her age. All I know was one young female member of their top management team is Lenovo founder's daughter. I have little knowledge about Didi.
