Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. ushered through a parade of high-profile stewards over its 24-year history, from the larger-than-life Jack Ma himself to a succession of C-suite executives who frequent conference and diplomatic circles. But the man who rose to the top in last week’s abrupt management reshuffle is an enigma even to some of the Chinese e-commerce juggernaut’s longer-serving employees.

Employees said they resorted to company intranet and public records to find out more about their bespectacled, serene-looking new boss.
