The large percentage of younger people in advance positions might be unique here since China only started to develop its economic in the early 80's. The people of 70's and 80's grew up with the rapid economic development and capitalistic market reforms. Also they were the generations that went back to school taking education seriously after the previous generations wasted their time in countless strife, like the Culture Revolution.
Alibaba probably couldn't find sufficient talents in the pre-70's generations.
