As we all know, since Huawei made 5G a global leader, the United States began to suppress sanctions, and also coerced and lured many European countries to reject Huawei's 5G together, which made Huawei lose a lot of overseas communication market share.
This wave of operations by the United States has allowed Nokia and Ericsson to pick up a lot of cheapness. But more than three years have passed, Huawei has not only realized the return of its self-developed Kirin chips, but also new news has come from the European market recently, which I am afraid even the United States did not expect.
Nokia and Ericsson are long-established communication equipment manufacturers in Europe, once known as the "Nordic duo", not only have a large market share in the European market, but also have great competitiveness in all parts of the world, including our continental market.
In this regard, we should also know that not only our three major operators Mobile, Unicom, and Telecom have cooperated with them and used a lot of their communication equipment, but also many of us have used Nokia and Ericsson mobile phones before.
However, since Huawei entered the European market, Nokia and Ericsson, the two major communication giants, have been surpassed one after another
Although it has been suppressed and sanctioned by the United States in recent years, and some European countries have followed the United States to exclude Huawei 5G, and Nokia and Ericsson have gained a lot of market share, but according to relevant statistics, Huawei still ranks first in the global communication equipment market.
The key is that except for the North American market, Huawei continues to dominate other markets, and Huawei's global share is still far ahead, about equal to the combined share of the second Nokia and the third Ericsson, and ZTE's share ranks fourth in the world.
In fact, in the 4G era, Huawei's communication equipment has achieved a lead, and Huawei's strength will be stronger after 5G is ahead!
Among them, Europe was Huawei's largest overseas market, and it is worth mentioning that Ren Zhengfei also regarded Europe as Huawei's second hometown. Therefore, Huawei decided to invest 1.6 billion yuan in 2020 to build its first overseas factory in France.
The factory mainly produces chipsets, motherboards and other components required for 4G and 5G base stations, and is expected to produce 1 billion units of communication equipment, mainly in the entire European market, and will provide Huawei with more complete communication solutions for European customers.
This will not only help Huawei enhance its competitiveness in Europe, but also drive the local industrial chain, increase output value, and solve employment.
However, after Huawei took the lead in the world in 5G, the United States began to suppress sanctions, and also encouraged allies to exclude or dismantle Huawei communication equipment, the United Kingdom, Australia and other countries directly excluded Huawei 5G, and many European countries also obstructed.
For example, Sweden, the country where Ericsson is located, actively responded to the call of the United States and directly rejected Huawei's 5G.
Although Germany, France and other European countries still want to use Huawei 5G, after all, a large part of their 4G communication equipment comes from Huawei, and it is more affordable and convenient to use Huawei 5G equipment, but they do not dare to openly violate the obstruction of the United States.
As a result, Huawei's French factory project was put on hold, and the project was constantly postponed, because even if it went according to plan, it didn't make much sense at the time. Among them, there is a ** consultation on this, and Huawei said that the project is still in communication.
Recently, there is new news about the project, Huawei France branch executives revealed that Huawei's first overseas factory has been confirmed to land in France, with an estimated total investment of 200 million euros, covering an area of about 8 hectares, and plans to start production by the end of 2025.
In fact, the project was originally planned to start construction in 2021 and officially put into operation this year, but now the project is equivalent to a two-year postponement.
In recent years, under the continuous obstruction of the United States, the 5G construction process in Europe has been greatly affected. Without the support of Huawei, which is the most advanced and perfect 5G technology, the construction speed of 5G in Europe is not only slow, but the quality is also compromised.
As a result, European countries that claim to be developed have lower network speeds than Middle Eastern countries that use Huawei equipment.
Now, with the continuous application of Huawei's 5G technology, other regions have begun to burst out of application strength, and even Brazil is under pressure to cooperate with Huawei, and Europe can no longer be unmoved, so the French factory is starting again.
Allowing Huawei to produce 4G and 5G equipment in European countries directly indicates that Europe has publicly recognized that Huawei's communication equipment is secure. The US has always used "security" as an excuse, and now this lie has been directly exposed.
In this regard, some foreign media directly said that the European market has begun to mutate and no longer blindly follow the ideas of the United States. Because even the UK wants to dismantle the Huawei equipment, it has repeatedly publicly announced that it will postpone the date of dismantling the equipment.
Once Huawei's French factory is officially put into operation, Huawei's 5G will go global again, and the farce of the US obstruction will be over!
