As we all know, Huawei 's annual scientific research investment is at a level of 100 billion. So where did so much money be spent?
According to data, as of the end of December 2021, Huawei's cumulative number of patents applied for has exceeded 200, of which the number of PCT applications has exceeded 60,000, ranking first in the world. In the field of 5G, Huawei has 6,583 5G standard patents. It is no exaggeration to say that any company, country or region that wants to develop 5G cannot avoid Huawei.
Although Huawei holds so many 5G patents, Huawei does not win by charging patent fees like Qualcomm . Ren Zhengfei once said that Huawei is too slow and has no time to charge patent fees. However, Huawei's generosity and generosity aroused the jealousy of the United States, causing Huawei to be sanctioned by core cuts.
Since last year, Huawei has taken on the "patent banner" to protect its own rights and interests. But unlike Qualcomm's "huge profits", Huawei is more conscientious. For 5G mobile phones, Huawei charges no more than US$2.5 per 5G mobile phone. Ren Zhengfei said that charging patent fees is not to make money, but to have more bargaining chips.
Before this, Huawei had negotiated with Veriazon, but because the other party had too little bottom line, Huawei could only claim $1 billion by suing. Recently, Huawei has taken action again, and the target of the lawsuit is the US technology giant Amazon . The main reason is that Amazon uses Huawei's patented technology, but does not pay any patent fees.
It is obvious that Huawei, which has been idle, has more time to deal with patent infringement, and the lawsuit against Amazon has also sent a signal to other technology companies that Huawei is going to start global rights protection matters, and none of them can escape, especially American chip companies. Many netizens said that this can be considered Huawei’s “counterattack”!
To be honest, in the 5G field, you have 6,000+ core patents. If Huawei stops research and development of technology and relies solely on these patent authorizations, you will be able to have food and clothing without worrying about food and clothing, and you will not have to live so hard. But Huawei is different from Qualcomm. In addition to pursuing interests, Huawei has a higher pursuit, that is, the sense of mission and responsibility of large Chinese companies.
If Chinese technology companies only focus on their own development and their own interests, they will not be able to promote the rapid rise of China's technology industry. Huawei is shouldering the mission of revitalizing China's technology and will move forward with the burden. Under the coercion and temptation of the United States, he still refuses to give in, does not bow his head, and does not compromise.
There is a saying that goes, dignity is above the sword. If you want to be respected by others, you must not be afraid of difficulties and face them. Only by taking core technologies into your own hands and gaining the right to speak and initiative in the market can you become the final winner. It is undeniable that European and American countries have started early and have taken the lead in many fields, but this does not mean that Chinese technology has no chance. As long as more Chinese technology companies can attach importance to scientific research and adhere to R&D and innovation like Huawei, we will have the opportunity to achieve "overtaking on the curve".
In addition to 5G, there are many challenges and difficulties in the fields of chips, industrial software, operating systems, chip architecture, etc. that we need to face and solve. It is not scary to have shortcomings, but the terrible thing is to escape. Since the chip shortcoming has been exposed, what we need to do is to make up for the shortcomings as soon as possible and narrow the gap with European and American companies, so as to end the fate of "bottleneck". I hope Huawei can get rid of the predicament as soon as possible and return the king. What do you think about this? Welcome to comment and leave a message!
