February 3rd was a day off, and it wasn't a big day. But at around 17 o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, due to a Weibo of Lei Jun, Xiaomi successfully became the focus of heated discussions on the whole network. Because Lei Jun's Weibo revealed a major personnel adjustment of Xiaomi, involving Lu Weibing and Wang Teng.
1. Lei Jun's focus shifted to Xiaomi's automotive business.
Since the Xiaomi automotive technology conference, everyone has seen the report. Lei Jun's focus has long been on the automobile business, but there was no official announcement at that time. Now he himself has announced that he will focus more on the car business, and will no longer focus on the Xiaomi mobile phone conference in the future;
2. Lu Weibing concurrently serves as the general manager of the Xiaomi brand.
Lu Weibing has only been in Xiaomi for a few years, and the promotion speed has caught up with the rocket. However, this is also a reflection of people's ability, and it is he who brought Redmi to its current status. He is currently the Vice President of Xiaomi Group, Partner of Xiaomi, General Manager of Xiaomi Brand, Head of Xiaomi's International Department, etc.
By the way, his first launch event after becoming the general manager of the Xiaomi brand was the Xiaomi 14 Ultra.
3. Wang Teng took over as general manager of the Redmi brand.
Wang Teng is also a huge step in the Xiaomi Group, and he has successfully become the head of the Redmi brand. In the future, Redmi's press conference will definitely be the main speaker, and Lu Weibing should not appear;
4. Mobile phones are still Xiaomi's core business.
Lei Jun emphasized: The mobile phone business has always been Xiaomi's core business, and I will continue to maintain enough energy investment. Thank you for your support!
This sentence is the point, no matter what happens to the Xiaomi Group now and what business it expands. Mobile phones are still a priority, at the heart of everything.
Regarding this major personnel adjustment, Lu Weibing's statement is: Thank you for Mr. Lei's trust. Serving as the general manager of the Xiaomi brand is a huge responsibility and an honorable mission. We will definitely go all out and continue to make progress in the established direction. See you at the Xiaomi 14 Ultra press conference!
No wonder last week Lu Weibing said that he was going to change to an image flagship, which turned out to be Xiaomi 14 Ultra. Sit back and wait for Lu Weibing to officially announce this model, and see if he has any new ideas at the Xiaomi mobile phone press conference.
