Lulu Cheng Meservey became the most representative voice of the purchase between Activision and Microsoft
The fight between Microsoft and Activision Blizzard to complete the acquisition already has its most representative voice and it is Lulu Cheng Meservey, an executive who has not hesitated to hit Sony and the regulators in the face of what she considers a closed position and that affects competition in the gaming. Yesterday, the executive turned the networks on by mocking the Japanese company with a meme that shows that it is they, and no one else but them, who are hindering the review processes and, in the end, harming themselves.

Inevitably, this sparked a wave of criticism that accused her of taking such a stance as a high-level executive at Activision Blizzard, one of the largest video game companies in the world. Well, Lulu Cheng not only did not remove the post, she also did not apologize, and in a new message on Twitter she responded to her detractors, making it clear that she is not an ordinary executive: “Why don’t you speak the way I think ‘ Is a corporate executive supposed to speak? I speak as a person. It doesn’t matter if that’s unusual. If you’re looking for formal pronouncements on synergy and human-centered solutions that drive the future or whatever, I’m sorry, I can’t do it”.

I talk like a person. Don’t mind if that’s unusual. If you’re looking for formal pronouncements on “synergy” and “human-centric solutions powering the future” or whatever then I’m sorry, I can’t do it
