À propos de cet épisode

<p>Jack Ma is the king of ecommerce in China. Nicknamed 'Daddy Ma', the former school teacher even appeared alongside martial arts legend Jet Li in a kung fu movie.

Then they decide if they think he’s good, bad, or just another billionaire.</p><p>We’d love to hear your feedback.
