1/ Here are the contents of Zhang Yiming's "resignation letter" from ByteDance Global CEO.
Someone said "he's my spirit animal." Yeah I think if you're a nerd you might find that to be the case.
2/
3/ He wants to focus on new upcoming tech paradigm shifts.
FYI, he wanted to study biology in college, and he's said many times his favorite book is "Basic Biology" (a textbook)
4/ How cute, he quotes Alice in Wonderland :D
5/ He doesn't want to be a "passive node" in meetings all day. And he wants to be more involved in the cutting edge stuff ByteDance is doing, which apparently includes brain diseases.
6/ I'm an introvert and I don't want to do all the things required of me as CEO. Rubo, my college classmate and cofounder, is better suited for this job.
7/ I hope you support me in my journey.
8/ Translated with @DeepLcom, with edits / corrections by me, full original Chinese letter here:

But actually LOL the official document is on their website:
