Wang Jun reiterated that Huawei does not build cars, and in-depth cooperation will focus on existing partners

Wang Jun, COO of Huawei's smart car solution, reiterated at the 17th SuperCar Forum on "Intelligent Driving and Carbon New" that Huawei does not build cars. "Otherwise, I wouldn't have been able to sit in this place with Liu Yuzong today to discuss these topics." Wang Jun said, "Our core is still to help companies build good cars." Wang Jun said that after two or three years of in-depth cooperation between Huawei and BAIC, the HI version of Polar Fox Alpha S jointly created by Huawei is sprinting to the market, which also marks the landing of a result of in-depth cooperation between the two sides. Previously, Huawei has reached in-depth cooperation with BAIC, Changan, and GAC. Wang Jun said that in the future, this kind of cooperation will not be too much, because this cooperation will consume Huawei's resources very much. At present, Huawei still hopes to focus on the car companies that have cooperated to support their car manufacturing.
