Introducing two more internet mogulas, William Ding and Ma Huateng of Netease and Tencent, become widely successful by being first on the internet.

William Ding of Netease is ranked number 645 of the richest people in the world. William Ding graduated from the University of Electronic Science & Technology in China. Then in 1997 at age 26 founded Internet portal NetEase. William Ding’s company withstood a rocky period several years ago during which it delayed issuing financial reports and trading of its Nasdaq shares was suspended. Now Netease is ranked number 52 of all websites according to Alexa.

Ma Huateng founded Tencent. Tencent developed an Internet-based instant communication tool independently, i.e. (Tencent Instant Messenger, short form is TIM or Tencent QQ). After three years of development, the Tencent user group has become the largest registered user group on the Internet. Of course what language is Tencent in? Chinese of course.

China is a growing market, and there is still time to wage your bests, get your stuff translated and perhaps enter into the global chinese market.
