Telecom denies rumors of withdrawal from Yixin: only holds shares and does not interfere with operations
In response to recent rumors that "China Telecom will withdraw from YiXin", relevant people within China Telecom clearly stated that "I have not heard of it, and there is no possibility", "Not only will they not withdraw, but they will continue to increase their support." YiXin is an instant messaging software jointly developed by NetEase and China Telecom, which can chat for free. It is rumored that "Yixin's major shareholder China Telecom is completely withdrawing from YiXin's daily operations. YiXin's former CEO Zhang Zheng and Deputy General Manager (from the former head of China Telecom's Wing Chat team) Gao Zhimin have resigned, leaving the minority shareholder NetEase alone." In this regard, relevant people within China Telecom said that "this is completely ignorant of YiXin's operations." It is reported that in order to support "de-telecomization", although China Telecom holds 80% of YiXin's shares, it has always supported YiXin's operations mainly by a team sent by NetEase. NetEase is a private enterprise, and it is normal for the personnel it sends to serve as YiXin's senior executives to have turnover; Gao Zhimin, the former head of China Telecom's Wing Chat team, rarely participated in this matter after YiXin was established. The person said that it might be because YiXin just announced that its user base exceeded 100 million after 11 months of launch, so it was normal for someone to pour cold water on it at this time. China Telecom has always provided great support to YiXin. For example, in the 4G mobile phone package recently released by China Telecom, in order to promote YiXin, before December 31 this year, China Telecom will give 4G users 500MB of YiXin directional traffic every month, which can provide free HD voice, HD video chat and international calls.
