2006年,随着电子商务在我国的高速发展,处于行业领头羊的阿里巴巴更是势不可当。这年底,阿里巴巴集团主席马云邀请拥有跨国公司经验的著名职业经理人卫哲加盟,请他出任集团旗下B2B上市公司——阿里巴巴(中国)网络技术有限公司CEO。当时所有人都相信,能够得到马云器重的卫哲一定会给阿里巴巴创造出不凡的业绩。事实也正如人们预料的那样,卫哲过去四年多的业绩确实可圈可点。2007年上市前,阿里巴巴季度营业收入约5亿元,季度净利润约1.5亿元。到2010年第三季度,阿里巴巴营业收入14.5亿元, In 2006, with the rapid development of e-commerce in China, Alibaba, an industry leader, is even more improbable. At the end of this year, Alibaba Group Chairman Ma Yun invited Wei Zhe, a well-known professional manager with experience in multinational companies, to join him and asked him to be the CEO of Alibaba (China) Network Technology Co., Ltd., a B2B listed company of the group. At that time, all people believed that Wei Zhe, who was able to get the attention from Ma Yun, would certainly create extraordinary results for Alibaba. The facts are as expected, Wei Zhe’s performance over the past four years is indeed commendable. Prior to the listing in 2007, Alibaba’s quarterly operating income was approximately RMB 500 million, and its quarterly net profit was approximately RMB 150 million. In the third quarter of 2010, Alibaba’s operating income was 1.45 billion yuan.
