Alibaba founder Jack Ma gave a lecture as a visiting professor to the University of Tokyo, as the high-profile Chinese entrepreneur retreats further from his business empire following Beijing’s regulatory crackdown.

Ma, who was formerly an English teacher before he became one of China’s most successful business figures, taught students at a special two-hour seminar on the evening of June 12, about management philosophy and how they can achieve success, according to a statement from the University of Tokyo on Friday. Ma’s talk — to students from Japan, China, India, Malaysia, and elsewhere — was based on “his rich experience and pioneering knowledge of entrepreneurship and innovation,” the statement added.

His return was a symbolic move and probably a “planned media event” by Beijing intended to appease private sector fears, according to analysts. Ma has appeared in public more frequently this year, with a more visible focus on researching and teaching. In April, the University of Hong Kong announced that Ma would join its business school for the next three years. Ma became a professor at the University of Tokyo on May 1, and his period of stay is until October 31, a profile page of Ma shows.
