In the future, the Chinese enterprises that will challenge Apple and Microsoft, or only Huawei, will grasp the key!
Currently, Apple and Microsoft are the two leading players in the global technology market.
In terms of market capitalization, Apple's market capitalization once exceeded 3 trillion yuan and is currently around 29.2 billion yuan, while Microsoft's market capitalization has exceeded 3 trillion yuan and is currently at 302 trillion yuan.
According to 2022 data, Apple and Microsoft have a market capitalization that exceeds France's GDP and can rank seventh in the world if aligned with their respective countries' GDP.
In fact, Apple and Microsoft represent two eras.
Microsoft embodies the Internet age on PCs, and Microsoft's Windows and Office have been unable to beat this product on PCs, with Windows having a share of more than 90% and Office having a share of more than 80%.
With these two trump cards, Microsoft conquered the world, with a market value of 661.6 billion yuan in 1999.
Subsequently, Apple launched the iPhone in 2007, and 3G and 4G came out one after another, and mobile communications and smartphones developed rapidly, ushering in the mobile Internet era.
Apple, on the other hand, is the biggest winner in the mobile internet era: iPhone, iOS, and the AppStore make Apple the world's largest and most profitable company.
This makes Microsoft and Apple, which represent the computer Internet and mobile Internet, the most influential technology companies in the world, take the lead.
So, are there any Chinese companies that can compete with Microsoft and Apple in the future? Judging from the current situation, there may be, and only Huawei has such an opportunity.
Why do we think so? Because the future may evolve from the PC and mobile Internet era to the era of the Internet of Everything, Huawei obviously holds the key to the Internet of Everything.
The HarmonyOS system is the only unified system in the world dedicated to the Internet of Things, which can be applied to various fields such as mobile phones, automobiles, Internet of Things, and TV, and is already a mature system for large-scale applications.
Huawei also has mobile phones, personal computers, tablets, servers, automobiles, mobile communications, and chips, which are the foundation of Hongmen's development and will complement and promote each other.
In other words, the PC Internet era is the rise of Microsoft, the mobile Internet era is the rise of Apple, and the era of the Internet of Everything is the rise of Huawei.
Of course, let's be honest, Google still has potential. After all, Google owns Android and Fuchsia OS, and in the future, Google's Internet of Everything will still be Huawei's biggest rival.
