First he was a teacher. Then he was China's top tech titan. Now, meet Jack Ma 3.0 — a high-tech farmer.

Alibaba co-founder Jack Ma, once the poster child of Chinese tech, faced backlash from Beijing after criticizing Chinese regulators, leading to a crackdown on his business empire. Since then, Ma has disappeared from the public eye and his whereabouts have been the subject of speculation. However, over the past two years, he has been spotted at various institutes worldwide studying high-tech farming. In addition, he recently incorporated a company called "Hangzhou Ma's Kitchen Food" involved in the sales of pre-packaged food and agricultural products. Ma's pivot to agriculture reflects his recognition of issues like climate change and inequality that need to be addressed.
