Specific circumstances:
Since the end of last year, LeTV Sports has stumbled into a vicious circle of lack of money-contraction-resignation of executives-loss of users. Following the financial problems of LeTV last year, LeTV Sports was first stopped by ATP, and then was exposed by Xinying Sports that the Premier League was in arrears with copyright fees, and the cooperation with Guoan was not smooth. By the end of 20 16, LeTV Sports had only paid half of the 6,543.8+billion RMB used for the title, and finally parted ways.
An insider of LeTV Sports said that the company is really considering the personnel optimization plan at present, but the proportion is about 20%-30%.
According to media reports, the heads of various departments will confirm the list of layoffs this week, but core employees will basically not be laid off unless they voluntarily leave. The specific layoff process will start next week, which is different from the mentality of employees who were afraid of being laid off at the end of February last year. This time, many internal employees are seeking to be laid off, probably because they get compensation and leave as soon as possible.
On February 6, last year, 65438, under the situation that LeTV Group was in crisis as a whole, LeTV Sports announced new organizational changes and personnel adjustments, and established new media and online business groups, offline business groups and sports consumption business groups. The new media and online business group covers the media division, e-sports division, lottery division and member business center, and the business group is headed by Liu Jianhong, co-president; The offline business group includes the event operation center, the industrial center and the fitness division; The competition operation and industrial center are under the responsibility of CMO Rose; Sports consumption business group includes equipment division, intelligent terminal division, e-commerce sales service center and intelligent research institute. Among them, the Equipment Division will be presented as an independent music and sports equipment company, and Zhang Zhiyong, president of LeTV Sports, is also the CEO of Music and Sports Equipment Company.
However, since then, there have been media reports that Zhang Zhiyong, the president of LeTV Sports, has recently left his post, and the chief operating officer who previously operated a number of copyright businesses of LeTV Sports also publicly announced his resignation. It is worth noting that in this adjustment, the intelligent hardware department is the hardest hit area with the largest proportion of layoffs.
