Well I wish I could say I invented it, but I didn't, I adapted it from
various online answers:

One problem with it could be that there is no timeout (your version
had a 2 second timeout).  I don't know if this matters, because I
assume that once we know it's Alibaba Cloud, then the 100.100.100.200
address is either there or not there, so perhaps a timeout is not
needed?  If a timeout is needed then implementing this in pure bash is
more of a problem.
