Britain is treatingHuaweiCommunicationsThe attitude of the equipment has been wavering. On the one hand, Britain needs to bear a high economic price to dismantleHuaweiequipment, and there is no suitable reason to refuseHuaweiof the device;On the other hand, US repression and sanctions have put pressure on Britain to force it to:Huaweiquestions to make a choice. Despite the repetition of attitudes shown by the British at different times, the decision was finally made to demolish itHuaweiequipment, willHuawei5G excluded in the UKCommunicationsout of the market.
This decision brings with it two important variables. First of all, originallyHuaweiThe UK was regarded as an important target for overseas layout, and even established a production base in Cambridge. However, as the UK followed the pace of US sanctions, large-scale dismantlings were carried outHuaweiequipment, prohibitedHuaweibuild a factory that made the original planInvestmentsBritishHuaweiThe 200 million euro plant eventually moved to France. This transformation has not only given France a huge gainInvestments, which also intensified the rivalry between Britain and France. Secondly, the United Kingdom followed the US sanctionsHuaweiThe action did not pay off as expected. Although Britain is pinning its hopes on other benefits from the agreement signed by Biden in the United States**, Biden has stranded this plan. This means that the UK is lagging behind in the development of 5G networks, failing to get the promised promises expected, and at the same time losingHuaweiofInvestmentsand market share.
SinceHuaweiAfter leaving the UK, difficulties arose in the UK's 5G build-out. First, demolitionHuaweiThe equipment has dealt a huge financial blow to the UK and is expected to cost at least 1 billion euros. Although the United States promised to provide subsidies, it was slow to deliver, forcing the United Kingdom to pay out of pocket, and eventually need extraInvestments200 million euros, adding to the already difficult 5G construction. Secondly, if you insist on itHuaweiEquipment is evicted, and the UK's 5G network development rate is likely to be significantly slower than the global average. Some experts** believe that the UK's 5G network is at risk of lagging behind the global average by more than five years. This means that the UK is inCommunicationsIn terms of technology, it may lag behind other countries, or even be pulled away by a wider gap.
At the same time, some withHuaweiCountries with close cooperation have achieved clear advantages in 5G construction. For example, France has recently been working withHuaweiJointly establish a foreign factory with an annual output of 1 billion units, mainly for research and developmentBase stationAdvanced products such as chips and communication parts. This will not only help France solve the employment problem, but also create a large amount of economic output. In addition, BYD is also said to be planning to set up a factory in France, which will further strengthen scientific and technological cooperation between China and France as well as between China and Europe. In contrast to this, Britain is losingHuaweiAfter helping, both the financial loss and the prospects for the development of the 5G network are very unoptimistic.
More and more people are realizing that only by following China can they get more opportunities. Britain realized that it was in the predicament of watching others eat in the United States while washing the dishes themselves, and began to "turn back". Recently, the UK's top brass decided to re-enter the Chinese market and intend to deepen cooperation between the two countries, citing climate change as an excuse. This will be a great opportunity for Chinese companies to re-enter the UK market and expand their presence in the European market. At the same time, this shift in the United Kingdom will also have far-reaching implications for the United States' global alliance system. The United States has always relied on the support and cooperation of its allies in the process of implementing technological hegemony, but with the alienation of traditional allies such as the United Kingdom, the technological hegemony of the United States is gradually losing support. The UK's re-engagement with the Chinese market is likely to trigger other European countries to follow suit, posing a greater challenge to US technological hegemony in the world.
Times are changingInternationalRelationships are also adjusting. China no longer needs to prove its resolve to the world, and some countries need to re-examine themselvesInternationalRoles and responsibilities. The UK's re-engagement with the Chinese market marks a new phase in the UK-China relationship. This will not only provide a broader space for Chinese enterprises to develop, but will also have a profound impact on major issues such as global climate change. It is believed that with the joint efforts of both sides, China-UK relations will usher in a brighter future.
