Jiyue CEO Criticizes Public Relations Director's Remarks, Stresses Values and Principles

TapTechNews August 26th news, Xia Yiping, the CEO of Jiyue, released a video on Weibo last night, criticizing the improper remarks of the public relations director Xu Jiye, stating that he advocates for healthy competition and respects every teammate who fights side by side.

According to TapTechNews' previous report, on August 22nd, Xu Jiye, the public relations director of Jiyue Automobile, blasted Xiaomi and Lei Jun for selling cars at a loss in the Moments and criticized it fiercely. Xu Jiye was internally notified and punished by the CEO Xia Yiping of Jiyue Automobile on the same day.

Xia Yiping said:

I think occasional debates or quarrels between competitors based on products and technologies can promote the progress of the industry and are harmless, but the remarks of our public relations department director this time obviously have gone beyond the scope of discussion and quarrel, and even randomly blasted the founder of the competitor, which seriously violates the values and principles of Jiyue. So I immediately notified internally and severely criticized the person involved to caution all colleagues of Jiyue, whether in the past, present or future, this is not allowed by the company.

We have always believed that the relationship between Jiyue and its competitors is both an opponent and a comrade-in-arms, and they are all groups fighting side by side for the rise of the Chinese automotive industry, and also people who encourage each other to walk the dark road together. Everyone can have mutual dissatisfaction and secret competition in technology and products, and can also quarrel and debate because of some different technical views, but never play dirty tricks, this is the bottom line and also the principle of Jiyue Company.
