LeEco's multi-department executives have made a major adjustment and will continue to invest in VR in the next two years
Just after the New Year, LeEco executives ushered in a wave of large-scale adjustments. On February 25, LeEco issued an internal letter announcing the latest executive appointments. Considering that LeEco has experienced a major transformation period from inside to outside since Jia Yueting's return, this redistribution of power at the top deserves industry attention.
Just after the New Year, LeEco executives ushered in a wave of large-scale adjustments. On February 25, LeEco issued an internal letter announcing the latest executive appointments. Considering that LeEco has experienced a major transformation period from inside to outside since Jia Yueting's return, this redistribution of power at the top is also very worthy of industry attention.
Zhang Zhao added a new identity-Zhang Zhao, president of LeTV's Film and Television Internet Business Group
, once told the media that LeTV Pictures 'valuation is not that important. Now, after being merged into LeTV, the valuation shares the same fate as LeTV's share price. In this redistribution of power in the group, is Zhang Zhao a big winner?
Since Jia Yueting returned from overseas in 2015 and promised that LeTV Pictures would merge into LeTV, it has been rumored in the industry that Zhang Zhao is expected to take charge of the entire LeTV and become the general person in charge of LeTV's audio-visual business. However, the description of his responsibilities in this internal letter shows that he only added a few new positions such as "President of the Film and Television Internet Business Group" and responsible for paid membership business.

, LeEco Pictures has released 34 films including the "Tiny Times" series, the "Death Squad" series and the "Bear Infested" series in the five years since its establishment, and signed directors such as Zhang Yimou, Lu Chuan, Xu Ke, and Mingkov, and won a box office score of 6 billion yuan. In 2014, its market share once caught up with Light and Bona, becoming the third place for domestic private film companies. The amazing box office results during the Spring Festival in 2016 and LeTV Pictures '2016 film list that placed great emphasis on IP may have a positive impact on LeTV Pictures' valuation.
However, LeTV Pictures has not announced its 2015 box office results. Various signs indicate that LeTV Pictures faces many external challenges such as distribution and box office. Rather than fighting alone, integrating it into LeTV is obviously a better choice.
Gao Fei: Returning to LeTV Video
About a year after being transferred to senior vice president of LeTV Holdings and chairman of LeTV Sports, Gao Fei (Sina Department) returned to LeTV to take charge of LeTV Video. In the past year, Gao Fei's emphasis on content has continued to the field of sports. Gao Fei's love for Lei Zhenjian has become an unavoidable star executive in the sports world. LeSports's competition for content, teams and offline venues has attracted media and peers. Look.

LeTV's internal letter did not clearly distinguish between Zhang Zhao and Gao Fei's positions, nor did it hand over all film and television and Internet video businesses to Zhang Zhao as speculated by the outside world. LeTV Video is still under the responsibility of Gao Fei, who joined LeTV earlier and is familiar with LeTV's video content operation. Both of them reported to Jia Yueting, which to some extent shows the division of labor between the two, and this move somewhat checks and balances each other.
Zhang Minhui: Going overseas
After leading Jicui Media members to join LeTV as a whole, Zhang Minhui (Sohu Department) became the CMO (Chief Marketing Officer) of LeTV and once worked in the same room with Gao Fei. Throughout 2015, Zhang Minhui even became the main executive supporting LeTV (today LeTV Video).
Zhang Minhui, President of the Ecological Marketing and Customer Operations Center,
was appointed as President of the Ecological Marketing and Customer Operations Center, responsible for controlling the overall global ecological marketing and customer operations strategy. This put Mo Cuitian, former executive presidents of Meizu and LeTV Asia Pacific (at the end of 2014, was still President of LeTV's International Business Unit) in a slightly delicate situation. In fact, the main highlight of LeTV's overseas business under the leadership of Mo Cuitian is mainly the sales volume of Super TVs in Hong Kong.

It is worth noting that the internal letter also clearly included VR business in Liang Jun's scope of responsibility. This means that LeTV may continue to invest in the VR field in the next two years.
