Chinese giant Huawei has gone through a lot in just the last few months, with a US imposed ban causing multiple tech giants from cutting ties with the company, telecom operators declining orders for Huawei phones, and entire nations considering banning Huawei outright from their 5G rollout plans — all of this, because the US believes that Huawei is funded by the Chinese military and government and gives away consumer data to the Chinese government.
That said, the Huawei founder thinks that US government interferes a lot in their technology companies’ workings, while the Chinese government doesn’t. He said that the Chinese government manages private companies via taxes and legal frameworks… “they don’t intervene in their business operations. I don’t know why the US government micro manages its tech companies as much as they do. They act like a mother-in-law, and if they get too involved, their daughters-in-law might run off,” Zhengfei was quoted as saying.
