Who is the origin and founder of Taobao?

Sun Tongyu, founder of Taobao (co-founder of Alibaba)

Alibaba's success comes from the dedication of the eighteen arhats and also from Ma Yun's strategic vision. Only six of the eighteen arhats stayed in Ali, leaving many meritorious officials. Let's talk about Sun Tongyu, the founder of Alibaba's heavy asset Taobao.

According to public information, Sun 1996 joined the China Yellow Pages. In April 2003, he led a team of several people to set up Taobao, and successfully forced him to leave ebay and become the largest e-commerce website in China. In 2007, sales reached 40 billion yuan, and in 2008, he stepped down as president of Taobao. It is called London Business School to rest and study, but it is actually exiled.

Leading Taobao to the peak of e-commerce, I was forced to leave the country where I worked hard, so sad.

PS: Sun Tongyu is the husband of Peng Lei, the head of Ant Financial Services. Both of them are eighteen arhats of Alibaba. Peng Lei was a partner of Alibaba when it went public.
