JIYUE CEO Xia Yiping Issues a Lengthy Apology, Stating That He Didn't Run Away

According to Sina Technology, on December 16, JIYUE CEO Xia Yiping published a lengthy article, stating that as the CEO, he has made many mistakes and feels deeply apologetic to the employees, car owners, suppliers, and even shareholders. He indicated that first of all, he didn't run away. JIYUE is the career he loves deeply in his life, and he has always regarded himself as a true entrepreneur. When he joined JIYUE, he invested the savings he accumulated from his previous job and his previous entrepreneurial venture. Even in the most difficult moments in these few days, he used his own money to safeguard the rights and interests of the most needed employees.

In addition, he admitted that as the CEO, he has made many mistakes. He didn't do well in strategy. Financing should have been the most important responsibility, but he was too optimistic in the early stage and didn't foresee the severity of the capital problem; The employment issue is also a big lesson. In some positions, he ignored the true matching degree between the position and the talent; In terms of management style, being overly concerned with details and micromanagement has also suppressed the initiative and creativity of the team; The obsession with marketing has also consumed too much energy. As the CEO, he should have focused his main energy on financing and strategic planning, but he once personally operated the marketing system, which dispersed his energy and caused other important matters to be ignored.

Tokyo Metropolitan Government Will Implement a Four-Day Workweek to Reverse the Low Birth Rate

As long as the employees accumulate a total of 155 working hours within four weeks, they can freely arrange their working hours within this framework. According to Xinhua News Agency, data from the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare of Japan shows that the number of newborns in Japan in 2023 was 727,000, and the total fertility rate, that is, the average number of children born to women of childbearing age, was 1.20.

She said confidently: "I can say that Gree is the best air conditioner in the world, and we have more than one hundred thousand patents." She stated that Lei Jun lost in the first five years, and as for the second five years, no one bets with him. Success or failure has its own logic. "I have the maximization of shareholders' interests. Then you, Lei Jun, compared with me, how much money have you distributed to shareholders? You took so much money from shareholders and used it up. Where did the money go? What is the return for shareholders?"

In response, Wang Hua, the head of Xiaomi's public relations department, later posted a response saying: "Regarding the news of infringement, after re-verification, the information is untrue.
