On October 5, 2016 (September 5, 2016 in the lunar calendar), founder Zhang Rui passed away suddenly. Doctor Chun Yu's future is uncertain. Comprehensive report by Huang Xiaolian, founder of Dr. Chunyu,"History Today" reporter Huang Xiaolian. At noon on October 6, 2016, news circulated on WeChat circle of friends and Weibo that Dr. Chunyu's founder Zhang Rui died of a heart attack. Dr. Chunyu is a leading Internet medical company in China, founded in 2011. Dr. Chunyu officially issued a statement at 18:00 pm on October 6 confirming that Zhang Rui died in Beijing on the evening of October 5, 2016 due to a sudden myocardial infarction at the age of 44. At the same time, the statement stated that at present, all business of Dr. Chunyu is normal, and the relevant responsibilities of Zhang Rui will be temporarily performed by co-founder Li Guanghui. According to public information, Zhang Rui is from Anhui Province. He graduated from Renmin University of China. He has obtained a bachelor's degree in biology and a master's degree in journalism. He has served as director of the news center of Beijing Times and deputy editor-in-chief of Netease. In 2011, Zhang Rui resigned from Netease to start a business. He formed a backbone team with Netease's former colleague Zeng Baiyi and his childhood friend Li Guanghui, and chose online diagnosis and treatment as the direction of his business. China's complex doctor-patient relationship and uneven supply and demand of medical resources made Zhang Rui feel that this was an opportunity. In July of that year, three entrepreneurial partners pooled millions of dollars in start-up capital and rented a 120-square-meter office in the 768 Creative Park in Haidian District, Beijing to officially develop Dr. Chunyu. Four months later, Chunyu's handheld doctor mobile client was launched, focusing on the mobile Internet "light consultation" model. In the following years, Dr. Chunyu successively launched air hospitals, private doctors, health archives and other services, striving to provide customized and personalized services to both doctors and patients. Since its establishment in July 2011, Dr. Chunyu has nearly 500,000 registered doctors and more than 92 million registered users, becoming one of the largest online consultation platforms in China. In January this year, Zhang Rui revealed that in 2015, Dr. Chunyu's actual income reached 130 million yuan and a profit of 30 million yuan, and plans to list on the A-share market. However, he also said that as the founder and manager of Dr. Chunyu, he has no intention of going public. "Listing is a demand from the capital side, and for me, it is a debt repayment. After all, the profit of Dr. Chunyu's core business is facilitated by investors 'support." In June this year, the relevant person in charge of Dr. Chunyu confirmed in an interview with the media that the company is indeed preparing for the Pre-IPO and plans to spin off the consultation business, with both the main board and the New Third Board under consideration. Due to the complexity of the medical market, the development of Dr. Chunyu has always been accompanied by controversy. In 2015, Dr. Chunyu, who has been focusing on the online, announced the opening of an offline clinic, triggering rumors of "bankruptcy". Some people believe that Dr. Chunyu's establishment of an offline clinic illustrates the failure of his Internet medical model. In September 2016, Chunyu International, a subsidiary of Dr. Chunyu, which provides overseas medical services, announced that it had completed 50 million yuan in Series A and Series A financing. When the good news of successful financing came, the bad news also followed. According to an investigation by a reporter from the Beijing Business Daily, it was learned from multiple different channels that Chunyu's offline clinic may have been suspended, and the doctors on Chunyu Doctor's platform have false information, and there are also problems with the qualifications of the medical beauty business. "Dr. Chunyu was 'kidnapped' by the current special medical background in China, and had to make adjustments and transformations time and time again based on his light consultation." An industry insider said when commenting on Dr. Chun Yu. As a pioneer in the field of Internet medical care, Zhang Rui has always been under great pressure. In an interview with the media in 2015, he said frankly: "I am really anxious." "I can't eat well or sleep well every day. I'm worried about what to do if the capital chain is broken before going to bed at night. In the morning, I get up and encourage myself to say that my product has solved the pain of so many people and is so valuable that I will definitely get money., just 'fate is not up to me'." The mental pressure quickly fed back to his body. One of the most obvious changes was that his temples on both sides were completely white. His father, who had been a doctor for many years, told him that this was an autonomic nerve disorder. Zhang Rui, born in the 1970s, often wears a sweatshirt when attending various activities. His background as a media person also makes him have close ties with the media and has always served as the spokesperson of Dr. Chun Yu. Although Internet medical care has encountered a capital winter since 2015, it has not shaken his confidence in the entire industry. At the end of 2015, Zhang Rui said,"The value of mobile medical care will be clear in 2016." Today, Internet medical care is still on the road, but Zhang Rui has passed away suddenly. This has brought more uncertainty to Dr. Chunyu, whom he founded, and the company's listing plan will inevitably be affected.
