Additionally, they own the Pinyin domain caocaokeji.cn for Cao Cao Technology. However, the more fitting two-letter domain JL.com for Geely has not been secured yet.

They hold over 200 domains, including various brand-related domains like sf-express.cn/.com.cn/.net, sfexpress.com/.cn/.net, and more. However, even with a high market value, money can't buy sf.com, which is a significant regret.

They also acquired pinduoduo.net. Pinduoduo recently launched a social e-commerce platform called "Kuai Tuan Tuan." However, the corresponding domain kuai.com is yet to be acquired.

19. Yao Zhenhua- ¥74.5 billion CNY
Yao Zhenhua's main source of wealth is Baoneng Group, founded in 2000, with diverse operations including property development, finance, modern logistics, culture and tourism, and livelihood industries. Yao Zhenhua is the sole shareholder. Their official website domain is baoneng.com. However, the more fitting two-letter domain BN.cn for Baoneng has not been secured yet.

They have over 100 branches and subsidiaries globally. Their official website domain is reignwood.com, and they also protect 20 related domains like reignwood.com.cn/net.cn. However, the two-letter domain www.hb.cn would better match their brand and is more concise and memorable. Two-letter domains are in high demand, so Reignwood Group should consider securing this domain.

Xu Shihui and his family's primary source of wealth is Dali Food Group. Dali Group is a large-scale integrated food production company, known for their Dali brand. Their official website domain is dali-group.com. They purchased the domain daligroup.com with the help of domain investors from overseas.

26. Pang Kang - ¥55.4 billion CNY
Pang Kang's primary source of wealth is Haitian Flavoring, a global professional seasoning production and marketing company. Their official website domain is haitian-food.com. Given their high market value, their website domain does not align well with their brand identity.

27. Guo Guangchang - ¥55.2 billion CNY
Guo Guangchang's primary source of wealth is Fosun Group, founded in 1992. Fosun aims to be a global leader in investments with a focus on China's growth. Their official website domain is fosun.com.

It has evolved into a massive private enterprise group with activities ranging from agriculture to heavy chemical industries.

29. Wu Yajun - ¥51.0 billion CNY
Wu Yajun's primary source of wealth is Longfor Group, founded in 1993. Longfor is a professional real estate company dedicated to pursuing excellence and quality. Their official website domain is longfor.com, and they protect brand-related domains like longhu.com.cn/net.cn.

Looking at the domains used by the top 50 Chinese companies, it's clear that many of them opt for domain names that align with Chinese phonetics or use initialisms. Pinyin domains uniquely tap into the ancient and profound Chinese culture, offering strong brand relevance in the domestic market. Giants like Alibaba, Tencent, and NetEase, all employ Pinyin domains, often premium ones including two-letter, single-letter, and double-Pinyin domains. As companies expand and establish themselves, having a domain that's easily remembered and embodies the brand becomes crucial. A concise, meaningful domain allows users to understand the brand instantly. In contrast, complex and lengthy domains can hinder memorability and brand diffusion. It's foreseeable that quality Pinyin domains will continue to be the preferred choice for domain strategies and essential assets in brand building.
