Recently, Xiaomi learned from judicial authorities that a certain platform blogger and his accomplices who were suspected of maliciously discrediting Xiaomi’s commercial reputation and product reputation had been arrested and brought to justice according to law.
On August 13, 2024, a certain platform blogger released a so-called “test video” of Xiaomi car colliding with a certain brand of car, intentionally misleading the public. The “test” method and conclusion contained many serious errors and biases, which caused extremely bad effects on the Internet and seriously damaged Xiaomi’s commercial reputation. After the incident, Xiaomi immediately fixed the evidence, carried out legal rights protection work, and resolutely defended the company’s legitimate rights and interests.
This result demonstrates the fairness and majesty of the law. Here, Xiaomi expresses its heartfelt thanks and high respect to the judicial authorities.
In the future, Xiaomi will continue to protect its rights in accordance with the law and resolutely defend the company’s rights and reputation. At the same time, we also urge users and media friends to jointly resist false information and malicious smears, and work together to create a healthy and orderly network environment.
It is reported that in August last year, a car blogger with millions of fans released a video titled “When Xiaomi SU7 hits a Zeekr 007”, which attracted widespread attention. The video shows that the blogger used Xiaomi SU7 to conduct a collision test with a Zeekr 007, with a collision speed of 60 kilometers per hour and a collision at a 90% overlap rate. As a result, Xiaomi SU7 suffered a small battery power outage and the door could not be opened.
