More and more people are using mobile phones now. Smartphones are used as televisions, cameras and music players. They are also used for sending e—mails or surfing the Internet. If someone talks about mobile phones, many Chinese will think of Huawei.
In China, even in the world, Huawei is a wonder. Ren Zhengfei set up Huawei Company in 1987. After more than 30 years of development, the company has become the world’s second largest maker of smartphones behind Korea’s Samsung. It has also become the world’s largest supplier(供应商)of 5G.
But recently, Huawei faced some difficulties. The U.S. government ordered a ban(禁令)on its sales in America. American officials said Huawei gave information that it collected to the Chinese government. At the same time, the U.S. government planned to stop selling parts and services to Huawei, which was believed that Huawei’s business would be hurt.
“We have never received such a request from the Chinese government and we have never tried to get into other systems to collect information.” Ren Zhengfei, Huawei’s founder and president said. “The ban from the U. S. would have little effect on our company. Huawei has enough ability to deal with the problems.” Ren added.
In an interview several years ago, Ren Zhengfei said, “I started Huawei with only £400 at the beginning but now it has become a $100 billion company. The experience was not as romantic(浪漫的) as you imagine.”
Facing the ban of the U.S., Huawei is growing. Huawei’s smartphone sales around the world rose 50 percent compared to a year earlier in the first three months of 2019. It may beat Samsung as the largest smartphone maker in the near future.
