According to Hong Kong 01, in the early hours of November 14 last year, Qian Fenglei and a male assistant were chased by three men in black with knives in Wanchai, Hong Kong, and Qian returned to his residence in his car for help immediately after being stabbed.
Qian Fenglei and his assistant were taken to Ruttonjee Hospital for treatment and later transferred to Eastern Hospital. After receiving surgery, Qian Fenglei was discharged from the hospital to rest; his assistant was in critical condition, but fortunately the situation turned serious after treatment. The police classified the case as an assault and referred it to the Wanchai Police District Anti-Triad Action Group for follow-up, but no one has been arrested.
Qian Lei Feng said in an interview with the Hong Kong media the afternoon after the attack, did not know who the other party was, and did not clash with people, injured after surgery, is resting. He sounded tired and was reluctant to talk more about the attack afterwards.
According to Sing Tao Daily, Qian Fenglei attended a “poker game” before the accident, during which he had an argument with someone, and was attacked when he left, the police then met with people who had attended the “poker game”, including “poker friends” who had allegedly argued with Qian, and initially believed that the people involved had nothing to do with the attack.
According to public information on the Internet, Qian Fenglei, born in 1976, is a native of Ningbo, Zhejiang province, nicknamed “Qian Duo Duo”. He is a close friend of Alibaba Group founder Jack Ma, and is now chairman of Global International (Hong Kong) Holdings Group Limited, holding a Hong Kong identity card.
Qian Fenglei is a big spender and is also a keen philanthropist, having donated large sums of money after the Wenchuan and Yushu earthquakes, and having bid high on auction items at charity auctions. He once spent 690 million yuan to buy a mansion in Hong Kong, and was a neighbor of Hong Kong tycoons, including Lee Shau Kee.
Since the end of last year, the company of Alibaba founder Jack Ma, who has repeatedly topped China’s richest throne, has been in turmoil when not only did it call off the listing of its biggest IPO, Ant Group, but also raised the anti-monopoly flag against Alibaba. Ma did not show up again in a series of rectification by the authorities, the outside world has been talking about this. Some say Ma’s speech at the Bund Summit in Shanghai earlier hit a sore spot with the powers that be and was suppressed; others say Ma has been acting as a white glove for the Communist Party’s power elites, and now his financial group is in trouble as a result of internal struggles in Zhongnanhai. The attack on Qian Fenglei, who is also a shareholder of Ant Group, at this critical moment also caused speculation among the public.
At that time, there were also rumors that there might be a connection between the two events, that Ant Group had just cancelled its IPO and that Qian Fenglei was then chased and chopped in Hong Kong. Before the listing of Ant, many people added leverage to gamble, and the suspension of Ant’s listing, so that the gamblers behind the overwhelming burden, may also be the reason why Qian Fenglei suffered a bloodbath in Hong Kong.
Qian Fenglei’s 4.88% stake in Shanghai Jing Yi Investment Center and his father’s 3.23% stake in Shanghai Qizhan Investment Center are both companies under the Yunfeng Fund, a private equity fund set up by Jack Ma in 2010, and both companies have since become strategic shareholders of Ant Financial Services.
