Ma, English name Pony, 197 1 10 was born in Chaonan District, Shantou, Guangdong Province, and graduated from the Computer Department of Shenzhen University. China entrepreneur, one of the representatives of modern wave merchants, chairman and CEO of Tencent.
Over the years, he has been on the Hurun Rich List and Forbes China Rich List. In 20 13, it ranked third in hurun rich list with 62 billion yuan, and fifth in Forbes rich list in China with 62.2 billion yuan.
After graduating from 1993, Ma began to work as a software engineer. It is said that the first bucket of gold comes from software sales and stock trading. Tencent was founded in 1998. After many twists and turns, I finally succeeded. After Tencent went public in Hong Kong in 2004, Ma's career rose all the way and won many social honors.
As a focal figure, Ma himself has had some controversial events, such as the "housing subsidy incident": at the end of 20 10, the Shenzhen municipal government announced the housing provident fund subsidy for rewarding special talents, and Ma Ran, with assets of nearly 30 billion, was listed. The incident has aroused the concern and heated discussion of the whole society. Finally, the relevant departments explained the original intention of the incentive policy, and Ma responded in good faith, and the incident came to an end.
Ma has made great contributions to social welfare undertakings. He believes that charity should become a habit and fashion. In 2007, Ma Cheng established the first Internet charity foundation in China-Tencent Charity Foundation, which was also ranked in12 and 20 13 Forbes China Charity List, respectively.
Extended data:
1993 Ma, who graduated from computer science, chose to join Shenzhen Runxun Communication Development Co., Ltd. after graduation and began to work as a programmer.
Until he was promoted to the head of the company development department. This job can be said to have laid a solid foundation and rare work experience for Ma's future software development. At the same time, this experience also made Ma realize that the ultimate goal of software developers is to be practical, not to entertain themselves.
It can be said that Runxun gave Ma more than just a post. What he gave the horse was more like a kaleidoscope, which not only gained material life, but also increased the management experience and enlightenment of the horse.
Ma founded and registered "Shenzhen Tencent Computer System Co., Ltd." with his classmate Zhang Zhidong on 1998 with accumulated experience and practical knowledge of software development.
Earlier, an anecdote happened to Ma, which also reflected his superiority in economy and commerce: that year, he made his first bucket of gold in the stock market, and he fired 700,000 yuan with 654.38+10,000 yuan. This also laid the foundation for future entrepreneurship.
He and his team decided to do "QICQ", and a company was already doing it. Ma, as one of the founders, didn't think too much, but since a company is already doing ICQ, QICQ in the early stage of the experiment will face the dilemma of being entangled in lawsuits. This also forced Tencent to stop using the name QICQ. After the termination of use, Tencent gave birth to a new name, which is today's "QQ".
In 2000, QQ spread rapidly among the people, and the ICQ with "Chinese style" rose in popularity instantly. The rise of users has also caused "happiness troubles". More and more users need bigger and more advanced servers. For example, the server used at that time was far from meeting the needs of users.
However, for Tencent in the early stage of its business, it is difficult to get several thousand yuan of server hosting fees, and even almost sold its newly developed ICQ.
Software cannot be transferred, and the number of users is increasing day by day. Faced with such a dilemma, Ma had to use his own plan to raise money everywhere. Finally, in a bright future, Ma's plan was recognized by Digital China and received investment from these two companies. In this way, Tencent gradually stepped onto the right track.
June 16, 2004, for Tencent and Malay, it was a time node worth remembering for a lifetime: Tencent was listed on the main board of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange! After six years of establishment and hardships, I can finally clear my name for my persistence.
If you make up your mind, it will pay off. With the continuous expansion of Tencent's business, its market value is increasing. In 20 15, it ranked sixth in Forbes China's rich list. In 20 16, Ma He and his Tencent rose to the third place in Forbes China. In 20 18, it ranked 10 among the top ten most influential CEOs selected by Forbes.
It is not easy to create a "QQ" empire, just like Rome, it can't be built in one day. When all the problems are mixed together, it is not a problem, but a driving force. Tencent did it, and Ma Hua Teng did it.
