Recently, Ren Zhengfei has been on the hot search again, but this time it is related to his youngest daughter Yao Anna.
At the end of last week, Huawei successfully registered a number of "Yao Anna" trademarks, and the relevant trademark application time was January 2021, and the international classification involved education and entertainment, communication services, advertising sales, etc. Previously, huawei's application for trademarks such as "Yao Anna" and "Yao Siwei" had been partially rejected.
In February this year, the Huawei Voice community issued a relevant statement on the registration of the "Yao Anna" trademark. The statement highlighted:
First, Yao Siwei is Ren Zhengfei's younger daughter, and Yao Anna is her stage name.
Second, there are now some companies or individuals in the society who preemptively register Yao Anna's trademark in bad faith, and if Huawei does not register, the trademark will continue to be preemptively registered in bad faith, and there are many disadvantages. Therefore, Huawei's preemptive registration of Yao Anna's trademark is due to Ren Zhengfei's protection of his daughter;
Third, for her daughter Yao Anna to preemptively register a trademark, the statement mentioned that this is the first time that Ren Zhengfei has used public power privately, for which Ren Zhengfei publicly apologized to all Huawei employees.
Now, the trademark application has been filed, so Ren Zhengfei's youngest daughter Yao Anna has once again become the focus of public opinion.
As we all know, Ren Zhengfei has two daughters, and the eldest daughter is Ms. Meng Wanzhou, who is well known to the Chinese. Meng Wanzhou's personal experience is very legendary, which can be called a model of contemporary women, so the Chinese people have more admiration for her.
Yao Anna was born to Ren Zhengfei and his second wife, Yao Ling. Born in January 1998 in Kunming, Yunnan Province, Anna Yao graduated from Harvard University with a bachelor's degree in computer engineering and statistics.
On January 10, 2021, Yao Anna signed a contract with Tianhao Shengshi and officially debuted through the documentary "Princess Of the Broken Grid", yao Anna revealed in the documentary that she wanted to break through herself, change everyone's perception of her, and position herself as an artist.
Yao Anna's entry into the entertainment industry has caused great controversy, on the one hand, as the daughter of Ren Zhengfei, a leading figure in the field of science and technology, she was born extraordinary, talented and learned, and with the aura of Harvard scholar, Yao Anna can choose a path with a higher starting point, such as like her sister Meng Wanzhou, entering Huawei to make some achievements.
For the doubts from all sides, Ren Zhengfei's answer made the melon-eating masses very convinced. In February this year, when talking about Yao Anna's debut, Ren Zhengfei said bluntly: "The little daughter loves literature and art very much, and my attitude is still supportive, otherwise if other roads are not smooth in the future, I will feel that my parents blocked her path, or what do I want to do?" ”
In fact, Ren Zhengfei's petting of the little daughter is also well known, in 2018, 20-year-old Yao Anna was invited to attend the Paris Celebrity Ball, in order to support the young daughter, Ren Zhengfei changed the low-key style of the past and accepted the request of the "Paris Race" to shoot a family portrait, and this is also the first time that the Ren Zhengfei family appeared in front of the public.
The reason why Ren Zhengfei supported his daughter to take the talent road, in an interview with the media in May 2019, he revealed that he was very sorry for his children in this life, when his young daughter was born, Huawei was in a critical period of opening up the international market, Ren Zhengfei was basically in the company for more than ten hours a day, or traveled abroad on business and did not go home for several months. When Yao Anna was young, he didn't even have much time to see his children, so he was very indebted to them.
Ren Zhengfei thinks that her daughter is not easy, she loves literature and art, likes to dance, in middle school, every week to dance 15 hours, after dancing to come back to do homework, at night more than one o'clock to rest. After college, it is even more hard, sometimes doing algorithms to do four or five o'clock in the morning.
Out of a father's guilt for his daughter, Yao Na wants to enter the entertainment industry to develop, and Ren Zhengfei naturally supports unconditionally to make up for his debt to his younger daughter.
As for the fact that Ren Zhengfei preemptively registered a trademark for Yao Anna, Ren Zhengfei also explained that Yao Anna had just graduated and had not yet registered her own company. Therefore, Ren Zhengfei entrusted Huawei's intellectual property department to register as an agent, and then transferred it to Yao Anna Studio, and the fee was paid by her. For this, he apologized to all Huawei employees.
Of course, most netizens expressed their understanding of Ren Zhengfei's approach, as an old father, Ren Zhengfei's apology is actually not very necessary. In fact, from Ren Zhengfei's exclusive responsibility for registering the "Yao Anna" trademark, it also makes people see his broad mind.
