The global mobile communication standard has been developed for 5 generations, the first 4 generations are dominated by European and American countries, we have experienced 1G blank, 2G follow-up, 3G breakthrough, 4G parallel, and finally won the world's leading position in 5G technical standards.
Among them, Huawei has made important contributions, and has been severely sanctioned by the United States. However, the US did not expect that even in the face of sanctions, Huawei would still be the first for five consecutive years. Recently, the ten countries jointly obstructed again, but the accident suddenly appeared!
The leading communication technology standard has a very large contribution to society and economy, which is why we will vigorously promote the development of 5G.
But it is precisely because of the high patent fees charged that it has caused unanimous dissatisfaction among companies around the world, once called it the "Qualcomm tax", and Apple has even fought a lawsuit with Qualcomm for many years, and then the communication standards have begun to think of bypassing.
Finally, in the selection of 5G standards, Huawei has achieved an absolute leading position, and this time the Qualcomm standard cannot be compared!
Crucially, Huawei not only contributes the largest number of communication technology standards, but is also the communications equipment provider with the most advanced 5G technology and the most complete construction solutions. Therefore, the US side, which had tasted sweetness before, was not happy and began to impose sanctions.
The U.S. not only restricts its own domestic use of Huawei's 5G equipment, but also tries its best to prevent many of its allies from doing the same.
Not only that, but also united a number of allies to do another thing, and established a 5G Open RAN alliance including 64 giants such as Vodafone, Ericsson, Nokia, Samsung, and Qualcomm, hoping to regain the dominance of communications in this way.
The result naturally ended in failure, because each had its own mind, which was equivalent to a plate of scattered sand, and Britain tasted the bitterness of this alliance, and Nokia even publicly announced its withdrawal twice. Under the operation of the United States, the construction of 5G in Europe and the United States is lagging behind.
A few years have passed, and China has built nearly 3.5 million 5G base stations, accounting for 60% of the world's total, while the United States has only 100,000.
Not only that, under the crazy sanctions of the United States, Huawei's share of 5G equipment has remained the first in the world for five consecutive years. As shown in the chart below, although the US imposed sanctions in 2019, it did not affect Huawei's 30% share.
As can be seen from the figure, Huawei's 5G share has been ranked first in the world, Ericsson has maintained the second place in the world, Nokia is now third in the world, ZTE's share has increased a lot, and now ranks fourth in the world, and Samsung's share has fallen to 6%.
Ericsson and Nokia are able to maintain the world's No. 1 position.
Second, third, thanks to the US side's obstruction of allies everywhere, they have picked up a lot of regional orders. Huawei did lose a lot of overseas orders, but the domestic market is still a strong backing.
Today, Huawei's 5G technology is still leading, and 5G-A technology was also released at the recent Mobile World Congress.
You know, 5G-A is an important technology for 5G to move towards 6G. Seeing that Huawei's technology is still leading, Western countries seem to be unable to sit still, so 10 countries, including the United States, Britain, Australia, Canada, France, Japan, and South Korea, jointly issued a 6G statement.
This posture is similar to the previous alliance, and it still wants to exclude us. Not only has it formed an alliance at the national level, but NVIDIA has also taken the lead in establishing the AI-Communications Alliance, inviting Samsung, Ericsson, Microsoft, Nokia and other giants.
It can be seen that Huawei and ZTE, which are the world's first and fourth largest enterprises in the world, have not been invited, and obviously do not want us to participate together.
However, at the critical moment when Western countries wanted to jointly obstruct it, an unexpected situation suddenly appeared, and another European country made it clear that it would not restrict Chinese companies from participating in their 5G construction. Recently, the news was reported by Spain's **.
Spain said it had no intention of establishing a list of high-risk companies, meaning it would not ban business with companies such as Huawei and ZTE.
In particular, the news was held during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, and Spain's support was very crucial, which means that Huawei has once again opened the European market, and it has also fully proved the safety and reliability of Huawei's 5G equipment.
It is worth mentioning that China has been developing 6G since 2018, and now the number of 6G patents is the first in the world, accounting for 403%, and the development of communication technology is progressive, and having the advantage of 5G is more conducive to the development of 6G.
Therefore, the United States and its allies, which are lagging behind in 5G, are unlikely to overtake in corners on 6G, even if they squeeze us out, it will not help, and in the end it depends on the technical strength, who is leading in technology, and who will become the standard.
In this regard, some foreign media said: Huawei can't stop it at all, and if Western countries are squeezed out by the alliance, it will only be a waste of work.
