A top PR executive at Chinese internet giant Baidu apologised Thursday after videos she posted online sparked accusations of toxic and abusive management and sent the firm’s shares sliding.
Qu Jing, the vice president in charge of public relations, posted a series of clips this month on video-sharing platform Douyin describing her tough treatment of junior colleagues.
“Why do I have to consider the family of an employee?” she asked in one.
“I am not her mother-in-law!”
“If your boyfriend calls you to ask about breaking up, what does it have to do with me?” Qu demanded in one clip.
“It is not my duty to know whether you are crying or not.”
In a separate clip, Qu attacks an effigy bearing the name of Hong Kong’s South China Morning Post newspaper in an apparent protest against a negative article.
She gloats in another that, while she remembered to buy gifts for colleagues, she forgot her son’s birthday.
