"Unbeatable Xiaomi!" Lei Jun's internal speech: After 15 years of ups and downs, Xiaomi's resilience has been proven

Last night, Xiaomi founder Lei Jun delivered an internal speech to Xiaomi employees after the Xiaomi Values Competition. He mentioned that 2019 was a very difficult time for us, as we faced various internal and external challenges. It was at the supplier conference at the end of that year that I told our partners in the industry chain: "A strong grass shows its strength in a storm, and a horse's power is known on a long journey." Lei Jun stated, "I believe that by today, all of our partners can clearly see that today's Xiaomi is much stronger than it was five years ago. Today marks the 15th anniversary of Xiaomi. Through all these years of ups and downs, we have proven our resilience." He also mentioned, "I still remember when we started, I thought it would take everyone 15 years to truly understand and recognize Xiaomi. Looking back today, we were too optimistic; 15 years is still not enough. But that's okay, we will continue to move forward until the day we are fully proven. Today's Xiaomi is far from the strongest, but I believe that in terms of perseverance, resilience, and an indomitable spirit, no one has more tenacity and patience than we do."
