According to news on the evening of September 8, the Professional Ethics Committee of Xiaomi Group issued an internal report today saying that Wang Teng, an employee of the China Marketing Department, leaked the company’s confidential information and had serious violations of regulations and disciplines such as conflicts of interest. The company decided to dismiss Wang Teng.
According to reports, Wang Teng updated his homepage on the Maimai platform and included a "sweating and speechless" emoticon behind his 8 years and 11 months of work experience at Xiaomi.
On the morning of September 9, Wang Teng posted on Weibo that he had seen many rumors online about his resignation, which were all fake news and simply outrageous.
"Let me explain, I didn't steal company secrets and sell them, and I didn't take money from anyone. There was dereliction of duty, and I'm deeply reflecting on it, but I didn't do anything illegal! Rumors stop with the wise, so please pay more attention to the new products that will be launched in the future," he said.
Information shows that Wang Teng joined Xiaomi in 2016 and served as general manager of REDMI marketing department and general manager of REDMI brand. Before being dismissed this time, his position was general manager of the marketing department of Xiaomi China and general manager of the REDMI brand.
Wang Teng posted on Weibo on the evening of September 8 that he was ashamed to say sorry to everyone. He had made some mistakes in the past and he had to accept the due price. I would like to thank Mr. Lei and all the leaders of the company for their training and trust over the past many years. I am very reluctant to leave. In the future, we will continue to support Xiaomi and REDMI.
