    CIK No. 0001597835

Dear Ms. Jacobs, Ms. Woo, Ms. Davis and Ms. Pyles:

On behalf of our client, Cheetah Mobile Inc. (formerly known as Kingsoft Internet Software Holdings Limited), a foreign private issuer organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), we are filing herewith the Company’s Amendment No. 2 to the registration statement on Form F-1 (the “Registration Statement Amendment No. 2”) via EDGAR with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”). To facilitate your review, we have separately delivered to you today four courtesy copies of the Registration Statement Amendment No. 2, marked to show changes to the Company’s Amendment No. 1 to the registration statement on Form F-1 filed with the Commission on April 22, 2014. The Company has included the data to reflect recent developments in the Registration Statement Amendment No. 2.

The Company respectfully advises the staff of the Commission (the “Staff”) that it will commence the marketing activities in connection with the offering immediately and expects to request acceleration of the effectiveness of the Registration Statement on or about May 7, 2014. The Company would appreciate the Staff’s continuing support and assistance.
