yeah the numbers are likely fudged, but it&#x27;s baffling how someone can write up that much about Alibaba group with seemingly no understanding of how the platforms work... Alibaba is like Amazon for China in <i>scale</i> and <i>dominance</i>, not in operation. it&#x27;s basically like saying Airbnb is going to have to buy a ton of houses to satisfy the Christmas travel demand.
