Metaphorically speaking, if previous sanctions made Huawei trapped in a swimming competition, the new round of ban that took effect on September 15th forbade it from even entering the water.
At the Huawei Mate 40 series conference last night, Huawei's consumer business CEO Yu Chengdong was outspoken when he mentioned the latest U.S. sanctions. Huawei is now in a very difficult time: "We are going through the third round of the US government’s ban. This ban is extremely unfair and makes us difficult."
He said that in the past 30 years, Huawei has continued to invest heavily in technology and innovation to change people’s lives through technology. Huawei has the best reputation for cyber security and privacy protection. Huawei leads the industry in communication technology and also leads the industry in consumer technology. In the past ten years, everyone has witnessed that Huawei has grown from an unknown brand to a global leader in intelligence equipment.
"For Huawei, no matter how difficult the situation is, we promise to continue to carry out technological innovation, bring the best technology and innovation to consumers, improve people’s lives, and improve everyone’s work efficiency." He said.
