          Jack Ma, the founder of China's largest e-commerce firm Alibaba Group
Holding Ltd, will step down as chairman in exactly one year on Sept. 10, 2019,
the company said.
          中国最大的电子商务公司阿里巴巴集团称,集团创始人马云将在明年今日,即2019年9月10日卸任集团董事局主席。
          Current Alibaba Chief Executive Daniel Zhang will replace him as chairman,
while Ma will complete his current term on Alibaba's board of directors
following the company's annual general meeting of stockholders in 2020.
          现任集团CEO张勇将接任董事局主席。马云将继续担任阿里巴巴集团董事会成员,直至2020年阿里巴巴年度股东大会。
          谈及自己未来的发展,马云在公开信(open
letter)中称,他还有很多美好的梦想,除了继续担任阿里巴巴合伙人和为合伙人组织机制做努力和贡献外,还想回归教育:
          我想回归教育,做我热爱的事情会让我无比兴奋和幸福。
          I also want to return to education, which excites me with so much blessing
because this is what I love to do.
          阿里巴巴在微博官方账号上还贴出了马云的新名片:

           >>马云将不再担任董事局主席 公开信全文
          美国全国广播公司财经频道(CNBC)将马云的公开信翻译成了英文,我们一起来看看这封公开信全文。
          各位阿里巴巴的客户、阿里人、阿里巴巴的股东们:
          Dear Alibaba customers, Aliren, and shareholders,
          今天是阿里巴巴19周年。我怀着激动的心情向大家宣布:经董事会批准,一年后的今天,也就是2019年9月10日,阿里巴巴20周年,我将不再担任阿里巴巴集团董事局主席,现任阿里巴巴集团CEO张勇(逍遥子)将接任董事局主席一职。我从今日起会全面配合张勇,为我们的组织过渡做好准备。在2019年9月10日之后,我将继续担任阿里巴巴集团董事会成员,直至2020年阿里巴巴年度股东大会。
          Today, as we mark the 19th anniversary of Alibaba, I am excited to share
some news with you: with the approval of our board of directors, one year from
today on September 10, 2019 which also falls on Alibaba's 20th anniversary,
Group CEO Daniel Zhang will succeed me as chairman of the board of Alibaba
Group. While remaining as executive chairman in the next 12 months, I will work
closely with Daniel to ensure a smooth and successful transition. Thereafter, I
will stay on the Alibaba board of directors until our annual shareholders
meeting in 2020.
          这是我深思熟虑、认真准备了10年的计划,今天得以实现,要感谢阿里巴巴合伙人的认同,感谢阿里巴巴董事局的批准,也要感谢所有阿里巴巴的同事们以及他们的家人,正因为过去19年大家对我的信任、支持和共同努力,让我们有足够的自信和能力迎接这一天。
          I have put a lot of thought and preparation into this succession plan for
ten years. I am delighted to announce the plan today thanks to the support of
the Alibaba Partnership and our board of directors. I also want to offer special
thanks to all Alibaba colleagues and your families, because your trust, support
and our joint enterprise over the past 19 years have prepared us for this day
with confidence and strength.
          这标志着阿里巴巴完成了从依靠个人特质变成依靠组织机制、依靠人才文化的企业制度升级。
          This transition demonstrates that Alibaba has stepped up to the next level
of corporate governance from a company that relies on individuals, to one built
on systems of organizational excellence and a culture of talent development.
          1999年,和大家一起创办阿里巴巴的时候,我们矢志建立一家让中国和世界骄傲的公司,让公司能够持久发展102年。我们知道谁都不可能陪伴公司102年,公司持久发展靠的是治理制度、文化体系和源源不断的人才梯队,公司不可能只靠几个创始人,更何况我深知从能力、精力和体力的角度,任何人都不可能永远担任公司的CEO和董事长工作。
          When Alibaba was founded in 1999, our goal was to build a company that
could make China and the world proud and one that could last 102 years. However,
we all knew that no one could stay with the company for 102 years. A sustainable
Alibaba would have to be built on sound governance, culture-centric philosophy,
and consistency in developing talent. No company can rely solely on its
founders. Of all people, I should know that. Because of physical limits on one's
ability and energy, no one can shoulder the responsibilities of chairman and CEO
forever.

          10年前我们就问自己这个问题,如何保证马云离开公司以后,阿里巴巴依然健康发展?我们相信只有建立一套制度,形成一套独特的文化,培养和锻炼出一大批人才的接班人体系,才能解开企业传承发展的难题。为此,这十年来,我们从未停止过努力和实践。
          We asked ourselves this question 10 years ago – how could Alibaba achieve
sustainable growth after Jack Ma leaves the company? We believed the only way to
solve the problem of corporate leadership succession was to develop a system of
governance based on a unique culture and mechanisms for developing consistent
talent and successors. For the last 10 years, we kept working on these
ingredients.
          我受的教育让我成为一名教师,能够走到今天我非常幸运。为公司未来负责也为自己负责,应该让公司里更年轻、更有能力和才华的人来担任领导工作,继续传承“让天下没有难做的生意”这个伟大的使命。
          Having been trained as a teacher, I feel extremely proud of what I have
achieved. Teachers always want their students to exceed them, so the responsible
thing to do for me and the company to do is to let younger, more talented people
take over in leadership roles so that they inherit our mission "to make it easy
to do business anywhere."
          我们帮助全世界的中小企业、年轻人、妇女发展的使命和愿景让我们激动不已,这是我们的初心,也是我们的福报和责任,真正相信并实现这样的使命就需要更多马云、数代阿里人去为之奋斗。
          Carrying out this mission in order to help small businesses, young people
and women around the world is my passion. This is not only our intent from day
one but I feel blessed to have this opportunity. To realize the dream behind
this mission requires participation by a lot more people than just Jack Ma and
persistent effort by generations of Aliren.
          今天的阿里巴巴最了不起的不是它的业务、规模和已经取得的成绩,最了不起的是我们已经变成了一家真正使命愿景驱动的企业。我们创建的新型合伙人机制,我们独特的文化和良将如潮的人才梯队,为公司传承打下坚实的制度基础。事实上,自2013年我交棒CEO开始,我们已经靠这样的机制顺利运转了5年。
          Alibaba is amazing not because of our business or scale or accomplishments.
The best thing about Alibaba is that we come together under a common mission and
vision. Our partnership system, unique culture and talented team have laid a
strong foundation for the legacy of our company. In fact, since I handed over
the CEO's responsibilities in 2013, the company has run smoothly for five years
on the back of these institutional ingredients.
          我们创建的合伙人机制创造性地解决了规模公司的创新力问题、领导人传承问题、未来担当力问题和文化传承问题。
          The partnership system we developed is a creative solution to good
governance and sustainability, as it overcomes several challenges faced by
companies of scale: continuous innovation, leadership succession, accountability
and cultural continuity.
          这几年来,我们不断研究和完善我们的制度和人才文化体系,单纯靠人或制度都不能解决问题,只有制度和人、文化完美结合在一起,才能让公司健康持久发展。
          Over the years, in iterating our management model, we have experimented
with and improved on the right balance between systems and individuals. Simply
relying on individuals or blindly following a system will not solve our
problems. To achieve long-term sustainable growth, you need the right balance
among system, people and culture.
          我深信,今天阿里巴巴合伙人制度和阿里巴巴所捍卫的文化,假以时日,将会越来越赢得客户、员工和股东的支持和拥护。
          I have full confidence that our partnership system and efforts to safeguard
our culture will in time win over the love and support from customers, employees
and shareholders.
          1999年创始之日起,我们就提出未来的阿里巴巴必须要有“良将如潮”的人才团队和迭代发展的接班人体系。经过19年的努力,今天的阿里巴巴无论是人才的质量和数量都堪称世界一流。
          Since the founding of the company in 1999, we have been of the view that
Alibaba's future will need to depend on "droves of talent" to enable us to
iterate on our management succession plans. After years of hard work, today's
Alibaba has a world-class talent pool in quality and quantity.
          作为教师出身的我,看到我们今天的团队、领导群体、以使命价值观驱动的独特文化,以及不断涌现出的一大批以张勇为代表的杰出商业领袖和专业人才,我深感自豪!
          The teacher in me feels extremely proud of our team, our leadership and our
unique mission-driven culture, as well as the fact that we continue to develop
exceptional business leaders and professional talent like Daniel Zhang.

          张勇加入阿里巴巴已经十一年,自担任阿里巴巴集团CEO以来,展现出了卓越的商业才华和坚定沉着的领导力,连续13季度实现阿里巴巴业绩健康持续增长。他具有超级计算机般的逻辑和思考能力,坚信使命愿景,勇于担当,全情投入,敢于站在未来创新设计新型商业模式和业态。他被评为中国2018年最佳CEO排名第一,这份荣誉当之无愧!他和他的团队已经赢得了客户、员工和股东们的信任和支持。
          Daniel has been with Alibaba Group for 11 years. Since he took over as CEO,
he has demonstrated his superb talent, business acumen and determined
leadership. Under his stewardship, Alibaba has seen consistent and sustainable
growth for 13 consecutive quarters. His analytical mind is unparalleled, he
holds dear our mission and vision, he embraces responsibility with passion, and
he has the guts to innovate and test creative business models. Deservedly,
China's business news media has named him the No.1 CEO in 2018. For these
reasons, he and his team have won the trust and support of customers, employees
and shareholders.
          阿里巴巴的接力火炬交给他和他领导的团队,我认为这是我现在最应该做的最正确决定。这几年我和张勇的合作配合经历,让我对他和他领导的新一代阿里巴巴领导团队充满信心!
          Starting the process of passing the Alibaba torch to Daniel and his team is
the right decision at the right time, because I know from working with them that
they are ready, and I have complete confidence in our next generation of
leaders.
          关于我自己未来的发展,我还有很多美好的梦想。大家知道我是闲不住的人,除了继续担任阿里巴巴合伙人和为合伙人组织机制做努力和贡献外,我想回归教育,做我热爱的事情会让我无比兴奋和幸福。再说了,世界那么大,趁我还年轻,很多事想试试,万一实现了呢?!
          As for myself, I still have lots of dreams to pursue. Those who know me
know that I do not like to sit idle. I plan on continuing my role as the
founding partner in the Alibaba Partnership and contribute to the work of the
partnership. I also want to return to education, which excites me with so much
blessing because this is what I love to do. The world is big, and I am still
young, so I want to try new things – because what if new dreams can be
realized?!
          我可以向大家承诺的是,阿里从来不只属于马云,但马云会永远属于阿里。
          The one thing I can promise everyone is this: Alibaba was never about Jack
Ma, but Jack Ma will forever belong to Alibaba.

          马云退休的消息也引发外媒热烈关注。
          早在上周五,《纽约时报》就发了一篇文章称马云要退休。

          《纽约时报》在文章中评价马云称,他改变了中国人的消费和支付方式,在中国是如同财神爷一般的存在。
          A former English teacher, Mr. Ma started Alibaba in 1999 and built it into
one of the world’s most consequential e-commerce and digital payments companies,
transforming how Chinese people shop and pay for things. That fueled his net
worth to more than $40 billion, making him China's richest man. He is revered by
many Chinese, some of whom have put his portrait in their homes to worship in
the same way that they worship the God of Wealth.
          1999年,曾经的英语教师马云创立了阿里巴巴,随后他将这个名不见经传的小公司打造成了世界上最有影响力的电子商务及电子支付公司之一,这个公司也在改变着中国人的消费与支付方式。他的网站市值超过了400亿美金,他也因此成为了中国最有钱的人。在中国,很多人都崇拜他,他们把他的肖像如同财神爷般供在家里。
          该文章也回顾了马云的创业历程。
          《纽约时报》写道:
          Alibaba started as an online marketplace for businesses to sell their
products to other businesses. But it did not take off until it began the Taobao
marketplace in 2003, which merchants used to sell goods directly to
consumers.
          近20年前,阿里巴巴还是一个网络交易平台,货物从一个商家卖到另一个商家的手里,直到2003年,淘宝诞生,商品从商家直接卖到了消费者手中。淘宝的创立也使得这家公司崭露头角。
          Alibaba later rolled out Alipay, an online payment service, to facilitate
transactions in a country where few people had credit cards. Alipay later became
Ant Financial, the financial subsidiary that Mr. Ma also controls.
          随后阿里巴巴又推出了网络支付服务——支付宝,在信用卡使用率不高的中国,支付宝使得全国范围内的支付转帐更为便利。支付宝随后成为蚂蚁金服,同样是马云控股的子公司。
          如今,阿里巴巴已成为一个影响世界的商业帝国:
          Today, Alibaba’s empire encompasses e-commerce, online banking, cloud
computing, digital media and entertainment.
          如今,阿里巴巴的商业帝国拥有众多业务,包括电子商务、网上银行、云计算、数字传媒、娱乐等。
