A news portal under Zhejiang Online named Tianmu News which is a government-backed news website reported the meeting on Wednesday.

Jack Ma’s re-emergence may help quell persistent rumors about his fate while Beijing pursues investigations into online finance titan Ant Group Co. and Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.
