Cheng Wei is CEO of ride-hailing firm Didi Global, which listed its shares on the New York Stock Exchange in June 2021.
Days after Didi went public, the Chinese government announced a cybersecurity review and banned Didi's app from the app store.

Didi was formed in 2015 when Cheng's company Didi Dache merged with Alibaba-backed competitor Kuaidi Dache. Didi acquired Uber China in 2016.
