巴拉在社交网络上写道，四年前当雷军和林斌来找我时，摆在我眼前的机会是帮助一个年轻充满前途的初创公司成为一家全球性的大企业，我开始了我一生中最伟大和最具挑战性的冒险。我搬到了北京，离我在硅谷的舒适区有6500英里，从头开始创建一个更大创业公司的创业团队。这个旅程在各方面都是惊人的，我可以自豪地说，小米是我帮助带到世界上的第一个婴儿。
巴拉在文章中特别感谢了小米CEO雷军，称雷军是 导师和朋友 ，并谈到雷军请他继续为小米担当顾问。

在雨果 巴拉任职期间，小米不止步于中国，首先在印度尼西亚、新加坡和马来西亚等邻近的东南亚国家开阔市场，然后在印度成为中国之外最成功的海外市场。小米最近宣布，它在印度的年收入超过了10亿美元，这是具有历史意义的里程碑，因为小米是于进入印度市场，仅仅在印度运营了两年。然而，小米在任何其他国际市场上都没有太如意，仍然在努力满足中国和印度市场对智能手机的需求。

以下为雨果巴拉的文章原文（英文）：
THANKS FOR A GREAT 3.5 YEARS, MI FANS When Lei Jun and Bin Lin came to me nearly four years ago with the opportunity to help turn a young rockstar startup into a global player, I embarked on what has been the greatest and most challenging adventure of my life. I moved to Beijing, 6,500 miles out of my comfort zone in Silicon Valley, to build from scratch a startup team within a bigger startup. This journey has been nothing short of spectacular in every way, and I can proudly say that Xiaomi Global is the first baby I helped bring into the world
But what Ive realized is that the last few years of living in such a singular environment have taken a huge toll on my life and started affecting my health. My friends, what I consider to be my home, and my life are back in Silicon Valley, which is also much closer to my family. Seeing how much Ive left behind these past few years, it is clear to me that the time has come to return.
As I thought about this late last year, I concluded that Xiaomi is in a very good place on its global expansion path, and if there was ever going to be a good time for me to come back home, that time is now when I can confidently say our global business is no longer just an in-house startup. We turned India from a dream into Xiaomi s largest international market with $1 billion in annual revenues, faster than any company in Indias history. We expanded into Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, and more recently 20 other markets including Russia, Mexico, and Poland. We teamed up with Google to launch our first official product in the US, and with our successful debut at CES where we won 3 prestigious awards the world now sees that Xiaomi is a global player changing the tech industry through our simple promise of bringing innovation to everyone.
More importantly, we now have a team of some of the most remarkable and enthusiastic people I have ever worked with, and leaving them all behind is without doubt the most difficult part of stepping away. At the same time, I know I ll be leaving them in very good hands. Xiaomi now has a strong, globally-minded executive team who will continue to drive the momentum we began together.
I want to thank the Xiaomi founders, and particularly our CEO Lei Jun, who has been a mentor and a friend. It has been both humbling and uplifting to work with a man whose vision is redefining the role technology plays in all of our lives, and the role the China tech industry plays in the world. As a friend and shareholder of the company, I am honored that he has been very supportive of my transition and has asked me to remain an advisor to Xiaomi indefinitely, as we continue to extend our reach around the world.
For me, as for many people in China, the Spring Festival brings new beginnings, and I will be transitioning out of my role at Xiaomi in February after Chinese New Year. I will take some much-needed time off before embarking on a new adventure back in Silicon Valley.
To my Xiaomi colleagues in China and India: as I leave our home in Beijing and Bangalore, please be assured that I will remain your loyal and grateful Mi fan 虎哥. I will be watching diligently from the sidelines and rooting for you guys all the way! And, of course, a very special shout-out to all our Mi fans around the world, who have won my heart for life!
Stay in touch guys
Ill be seeing you,
Hugo
