According to Red Star News, with the implementation of the "front-end real-name system", Toutiao apps and other apps can now view the real names of some celebrities. Among them, the account of Lei Jun, founder, chairman and CEO of Xiaomi Group, has attracted attention. Lei Jun's account information page shows that his account is certified as "Founder, Chairman and CEO of Xiaomi Group", but the real name of the account is "Liu Wei".
reported that Lei Jun is active on multiple social platforms and would ask netizens for "good morning" and introduce Xiaomi Group's products. Currently, Lei Jun has 5.28 million fans and 13.58 million likes on the Toutiao app. Some netizens joked that they did not expect Lei Jun's real name to be Liu Wei; some netizens believed that the content posted on Lei Jun's account may be operated by a dedicated person (referring to Liu Wei) and has nothing to do with Lei Jun himself. On January 12, Red Star Capital Bureau learned from the relevant staff of Xiaomi Group that the real name "Liu Wei" verified by Lei Jun's account was Liu Wei, the special assistant to the CEO of Xiaomi Group.
However, Wang Hua, general manager of the public relations department of Xiaomi Group, denied this, "This Liu Wei is not the special assistant to the CEO, but Liu Wei from the public relations department of Xiaomi at that time."
He also said, "Someone came to ask me today about Lei The real name of the Toutiao account is actually not that complicated. Colleagues from the public relations department helped Mr. Lei register and authenticate it at that time, and we are already contacting him to make changes." He further explained in the comment area that Toutiao was attracting senior executives from various companies to go there at that time. Verify the account, because these media platforms are usually connected by the public relations department, so colleagues from the public relations department do the verification.
Some netizens asked: Was Lei Jun’s Weibo posted by the public relations department? Wang Hua also denied this. @神的德强steven, who is certified as the new media director of Xiaomi, also replied: Mr. Lei himself posted it.
html At noon on the 12th, Lei Jun posted a message on his Toutiao account in response to the fact that the account’s real name is “Liu Wei”. Lei Jun said, "My account was registered for me by a colleague from the public relations department. It has been modified."
