On April 27th, there was a funny story circulating online. It was said that during the Beijing Auto Show, Lei Jun, the founder of Xiaomi Group, was locked inside the Ideal L6 car by Li Xiang, the CEO of Ideal Auto. This news quickly caught the attention and sparked discussions among the public.
In response to this rumor, Xu Jieyun, the special assistant to the chairman of Xiaomi Group, personally clarified: "It's fake, I was right next to Li Xiang."
Xu Jieyun stated that in reality, when Lei Jun sat in the L6 for a test drive, he found the armrests on both sides very comfortable, emphasizing that from a design perspective, it was very reasonable. Xu Jieyun emphasized that jokes are just jokes, and everyone should not take them seriously.
It is reported that this video was filmed on April 25, the opening day of the 2024 Beijing Auto Show. On that day, Lei Jun visited the booths of several well-known car brands, including NIO, Xiaopeng, and Li Auto.
When he visited the Li Auto booth, Li Xiang introduced him to the rear seats of the Li One, claiming them to be the best in the same class. Lei Jun then personally experienced the comfort of the rear seats.
Despite timely clarifications of online rumors, this small incident also demonstrates the public's high level of interest in the dynamics of the automotive industry and curiosity about interactions between corporate leaders.
