On Thursday, Ren Zhengfei, CEO of Huawei Technologies, informed that the company is ready to license its new 5G mobile technology to a United States firm. The reason behind this is the company seeks to lower the security concerns about its products. Ren Zhengfei, talking more about it stated that he doesn’t afraid to create a rival by making the company’s 5G technology available for global competitors. Besides, the offer may also include some chip design technologies.
The world’s leading telecom equipment manufacturer, Huawei has been on a trade blacklist since May. The U.S.’ experts think that the company’s equipment and technologies could be used to spy by Beijing. But Huawei has strictly denied the allegation made by the U.S. The trade ban by the U.S. prevented Huawei from using US technologies. As a result, the latest smartphone launched by Huawei, Huawei Mate 30 flagship smartphone will come with Goole Apps or Services. That means the users may not be able to use YouTube, Play Store, Gmail, Google Maps, or Google Search.
The statement comes after Ren said earlier this month that Huawei is open to selling the 5G technology to Western companies for a one-time settlement. The technology includes code, blueprints, patents, and technology production know-how. It can be said that the recent offer to provide license of 5G technology marks the latest attempt by the company to reduce the impact of the US ban. On Wednesday, the US President Donald Trump informed that a deal to and the trade war between the US and China could happen soon. This can be a good sign for the Chinese tech giant to finish a trade war with the US. The company remains as the world’s second-largest smartphone manufacturer. It is expected that by the end of this year, the company’s phone business will reach around USD 10 billion.
