TREE NEWS update: Alibaba has denied a media report claiming that Wu Zhao (Chen Hang), founder of DingTalk, had rejoined the company and been placed under the Qianwen Office business unit. The company said the report is untrue and that Wu Zhao has not returned to that unit. In June, Alibaba announced a management reshuffle at DingTalk, with Chen Hang stepping down as CEO and Chen Yusen taking over. DingTalk and Qianwen Office now both fall under the Qianwen Office business unit.
Alibaba denies report of DingTalk founder Wu Zhao returning to Qianwen Office
This denial is less about personnel and more about signaling internal boundaries within Alibaba's AI-driven office software strategy. The market is watching whether the rumored return points to deeper integration between DingTalk and Qianwen Office, or if it signals instability in leadership after the June reshuffle. What matters next is whether official communications clarify the actual reporting structure and product roadmap, as ambiguity here can affect enterprise customer confidence in the direction of Alibaba's collaboration tools.
