Ma Yun's wife, Zhang Ying, was born in 1966 and is 55 years old. A native of Ganlin Town, Shengzhou City, Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, met his brother Ma Yun when he was studying at Hangzhou Normal University. After graduating from Hangzhou Normal University (now Hangzhou Normal University), he immediately married Ma Yun. After owning Alibaba with a market value of over $230 billion, including Yahoo, Taobao, Alipay and Ali Software, Ma Yun persuaded his wife to leave the post of general manager and go home to be a full-time wife. Zhang Ying resigned and went home. He was very comfortable at home.

After Zhang Ying quit, Alibaba became bigger and bigger. In 2007, Ali B2B business was listed in Hong Kong, and Zhang Ying's name was not in the list of eight major shareholders. In 20 14, Ali went public in the United States, and the prospectus had 28 partners, but there was also no Zhang Ying.
