Alibaba founder Jack Ma has proved he's got more to offer than business acumen.
The billionaire published four comic drawings on Sina Weibo, China's Twitter-like variant, saying it takes more to be a painter than to run a business.
As he developed Alibaba from an unknown start-up into an Internet conglomerate listed on the New York Stock Exchange, Ma's status as a successful entrepreneur is self-evident. Taking his business accomplishments into account, maybe it can be as hard to be an equally capable artist.
Now that the business leader finds every little bit about his life under national scrutiny, a byproduct of frequenting China's Rich List and Alibaba's sensational initial public offering last September, it came as no surprise that the post attracted more than 43,000 likes and almost 8,000 comments in 24 hours.
Apart from the aesthetic perspective, some viewers said it's Ma's whimsical captions that prompted more laughter, offering a glimpse of the businessman's verbal skills.

Two giant pandas that have been moved from southwest China's Sichuan Province to the northeastern Jilin Province in an attempt to expand the animals' habitat have made their public debut in Changchun, the provincial capital.
The pandas, an eight-year-old male and a seven-year-old female, went through a week-long quarantine and are in good condition after settling into a new panda house at a Siberian tiger breeding base in the city.
This is the farthest north a panda has resided in China for a long time. Due to its cold winters, the northeast China is generally avoided as a habitat for the giant pandas.
The animals came from the China Giant Panda Protection and Research Center in Dujiangyan city in southwest China.
