Sudden | Huawei's senior personnel adjustment: Ding Yun replaced Peng Zhongyang as the president of the company BG

Huawei recently announced a high-level personnel change on the intranet, appointing managing director Ding Yun to succeed Peng Zhongyang as the president of the company BG, while still serving as the president of the operator BG.

According to the data, Ding Yun was born in 1969 and graduated from Southeast University with a master's degree. He joined Huawei in 1996 and has served as President of the Company's Product Line, President of Global Solution Sales, President of Global Marketing, President of Products and Solutions, and President of Carrier BG.

From the perspective of organizational structure, Huawei is currently divided into three major sectors: operators, enterprises, and consumers. After the adjustment, Ding Yun will be responsible for both operator BG and enterprise BG, and Yu Chengdong will be responsible for consumer BG. Huawei insiders told the first financial reporter that the adjustment belongs to the normal transfer within the company, and Peng Zhongyang will return to the strategic reserve team.

On the morning of December 31, 2021, Huawei disclosed its overall revenue in 2021 on its official website. Huawei expects to achieve sales revenue of about 634 billion yuan in 2021, but it has not disclosed the profitability of each business in detail.

However, it can be seen that in the past two years, Huawei has encountered multiple sanctions, in which the development of consumer business and operators' overseas business has been constrained, and as the core business facing the tide of digital transformation, the development of government and enterprise affairs has also won space for Huawei's "survival" to some extent.

In 2021, Huawei's China enterprise business entered its tenth year, and this business unit, which once only sold "boxes" (hardware), achieved sales of more than $10 billion. Although it is not as large as Huawei's other first-level departments, from the internal strategy, it bears the heavy responsibility of Huawei's future growth main engine.

Huawei's president of China's government and enterprise affairs once told reporters that in the next five years, Huawei's Chinese government and enterprise (revenue) will move from $10 billion to $40 billion, about 260 billion yuan. He mentioned that driven by factors such as smart cities, district and county governance, and industrial transformation and upgrading, the focus of investment will inevitably further move towards the prefectural and district and county levels, and huawei will invest more than 5 billion yuan in the next five years to incentivize prefectural and municipal partners.

"But digital transformation is a comprehensive change, which is tantamount to a second venture. Xu Zhijun, huawei's rotating chairman, believes that the current success rate of digitalization of Chinese enterprises is not high, and nearly half of the enterprises have a vague digital strategy. The challenge is mainly due to the weak foundation of informatization, in which case promoting digitalization means that "just learn to climb, you have to want to run". The strategic direction is not clear, the technical solution is unreasonable, the structural defects, the separation from the business and the system support have not kept up, and the lack of digital talents are all existing difficulties.

Xu Zhijun said that the digital ecology is complex, a single business of government and enterprises, to handle a second-level contractor, distributors around the world, interlocking, compared with the consumer market, where technology and business cooperation, with a high degree of complexity.
