First, the introduction
On January 10, in the face of Western technology suppression, Huawei chose to turn the spare tire, insisted on self-research investment, with operator business and enterprise services, in the case of a sharp decline in consumer business such as smart phones, it can still achieve more than 630 billion yuan in revenue, and increase the net profit margin to more than 10%, why in the 31 months of Western suppression, Huawei is still very strong and survived? 5G, smart cars, smart homes, Hongmeng systems, Euler systems, cloud computing, Kunpeng servers, Ascend AI artificial intelligence chips, photovoltaic power generation, etc., have played an important role.
Second, Huawei won the world's first place again, pressing Samsung, Qualcomm, and Apple
We all know that the new Western regulations completely limit the Huawei HiSilicon chip foundry, as the world's first-class chip design manufacturers, there is no first-class chip manufacturing process as a support, the results can be imagined, for more than a year, Huawei only relies on inventory chips to carry out business, there is no chip source, but with one less, there is no way, smart phones are not only chip owners, but also high requirements for chip technology, so under the lack of cores, Huawei's mobile phone share is almost nothing, Fortunately, Huawei's spare tire is also very strong, which makes Huawei persist.
The reason why these spare tires can play an important role, the basis is that Huawei adheres to the high amount of R & D investment every year, has created more than 100,000 patent reserves for Huawei, recently, Huawei won the world's first, January 9, the well-known R & D institution Capital on Tap announced a list of the most innovative technology companies in 2021, Huawei in 2021 with 9739 patent applications, once again won the world's first, pressure Samsung's 9499, and Qualcomm, Tech giants such as Apple are Huawei's underdogs.
3. Why did Huawei's patent application rank first in the world last year?
Under such severe suppression by the West, why did Huawei's patent applications last year still rank first in the world? The author believes that there are two main reasons, first, Huawei's R & D investment last year reached 124 billion yuan, not only ranked first in the country, but also in the global market, only lagging behind Google, to know that last year's Huawei life is not good, revenue fell by more than 250 billion yuan compared with 2020, even so, Huawei still took out 20% of the total revenue, all invested in scientific and technological research and development.
Second, Huawei Ren Zhengfei chose to transform, under the restrictions of the new Western regulations, Huawei chose to transform the software field, vigorously develop Hongmeng system, Euler system, cloud computing, intelligent car solutions, VR, AR and other new businesses, especially VR and AR and other virtual reality technologies, Huawei has achieved the world's first patent reserve, the number of patents up to 3893, not only that, Euler system, Hongmeng system, etc. are also in the fields of big data, industrial manufacturing, smart home, etc., to Huawei to create a large number of patents, Therefore, Huawei obtained 9739 patents last year, which can be said to be too valuable to insist on 124 billion yuan of research and development investment.
How to avoid the restrictions of the new Western regulations? Ren Zhengfei had already dealt with it
For Huawei today, how can it really avoid the restrictions of the new Western regulations? In fact, Ren Zhengfei has long responded, mainly reflected in three aspects, first, to create a software ecology, focusing on the future era of internet of everything, such as Hongmeng system positioning is the future era of internet of everything, after investing more than 10 billion yuan, ecological users have exceeded 320 million, breaking the monopoly of Apple and Google's mobile phone system, this year will enter the European market, and Apple Google directly launched a positive competition, if you can get the recognition of European users, the future into the global market will have a solid foundation.
Second, Huawei opened the whole industry chain layout of the chip, the recently exposed Kirin 830, Kirin 720 chip, and the recently exposed Tianguang 800 chip, are the result of Huawei's layout of the chip industry chain, we all know that Huawei's Hubble investment in the past two years has been extremely active, publicly invested in more than 50 semiconductor companies, all of which are chip-related links manufacturers; third, Huawei ICT main business to 5G the third stage, that is, the 5G application stage, Using 5G technology to enhance the competitiveness of all walks of life, Huawei has set up five "legion" structures.
5. Conclusion
Of course, in the case of comprehensive restrictions on Western advanced technologies, products, equipment, etc., Huawei can persist for so long, the core patent is the key, such as 5G core patents, Huawei is the world's first, this year directly to Huawei created 3.8 billion yuan of patent revenue, Qualcomm, Intel, Apple, Samsung and other technology giants, have to pay Huawei 5G patent royalties, so only with core patents, can have the right to speak and economic benefits, in order to completely avoid western technology suppression.
Well, Huawei won the world's first place again, 124 billion is too worth it, what do you think?
