$图森未来(TSP)$ 侯晓迪刚发了一封公开信，我贴在下面了。没想到这家公司以这种闹剧收场，对中国创业公司在美国开拓市场起了一个不好的示范作用。 Hi all,
When I started TuSimple in a 700 SQFT office in 2015, I started with the ambition to grow TuSimple into a company that will fundamentally transform the freight industry through autonomous driving. You joined TuSimple because you also believe in that dream. We have worked so hard to bring it to life, and I couldn’t be prouder of you.
My motivation has always been and continues to be chasing that visionary dream. The painful truth is that on Oct. 30, the Board voted to remove me as CEO and Chairman of the Board without Cause. Unfortunately, the Board’s processes and conclusions have been questionable at best. As the facts come to light, I am confident that my decisions as CEO and Chairman, and our vision for TuSimple, will be vindicated.
I have been completely transparent in both my professional and personal life and I fully cooperated with the Board because I have nothing to hide. I want to be clear that I fundamentally deny any suggestions of wrongdoing.
I know my leadership style may sometimes be demanding, but that’s because autonomous driving itself is a demanding mission that requires our undeterred commitment. Your dedication humbles me. Unfortunately, the work we have done together and the sacrifices we have made along the way are sometimes under-recognized by those who do not understand the complexity of autonomous driving. It is so unfair to let politics get in the way of the dream we were pursuing together.
Some people want you to be content with TuSimple simply being a technology provider. I encourage you to dream bigger. This field has the potential to change society in a fundamental way, and there is simply no room for mediocrity. We must grow into a business that changes a generation. The alternative is not an option. That is why I have so much confidence in our long-term value and have not sold a single share of my ownership in the company, and I do not intend to do so for as long as I can support my family.
Talking about family, TuSimple is my baby. Like every parent, the love I give to TuSimple is unlimited and unconditional. I am always willing to help the company succeed at whatever personal cost, including my health and time spent with my real family. I can say with a clear conscience I have always acted and will act with integrity and in the best interests of TuSimple.
I have full confidence in the current leadership team. More importantly, as a TuSimple employee, your faith will support you during this challenging time.
Regardless of the role I hold either as a co-founder, CTO, President, B-shareholder, CEO, Chairman, or now a Board director, I am still that XD in the yellow shoes. As you already know, I am always here to support the company. That will never change.
