During his New Year's Eve livestream, Lei Jun, the founder, chairman, and CEO of Xiaomi, arranged for engineers to conduct a livestream showcasing the disassembly of the new Xiaomi YU7. In the question - and - answer segment, he debunked the rumor about "Xiaomi having a 7,000 - strong legal team." He also mentioned that he would focus on strengthening the construction of the legal team to take on the blackwater forces that engage in defaming Xiaomi and its car owners.

Xu Jieyun, the special assistant to the chairman of Xiaomi Group and the deputy general manager of the Strategic Marketing Department, pointed out that in the past, Xiaomi had mainly concentrated on product development. However, the widespread prevalence of smearing and rumor - spreading activities would pose a threat to the sound development of China's new energy industry. Lei Jun echoed this sentiment, expressing his full support for cracking down on and rectifying the actions of these blackwater forces.
