Yang Yan, a former high-ranking official at Meizu Technology, retweeted a Weibo post promoting Meizu's latest smartphone releases, subtly hinting at discord with the company and foreshadowing the revelation of peculiar phone conversations he had received. His tone was vehement, vowing to impede the sales of Meizu's new phones and escalate pressure on the company. Initially, he had announced a live broadcast to address the situation, but the event ultimately did not materialize. Yang Yan, who once headed software development at Meizu for an extended period, oversaw significant Flyme system upgrades and played a pivotal role in shaping Meizu's software ecosystem.
