5G brother is suspected of "having a backdoor", who is the happiest? This question, the author has thought about for a long time, I dare not say that it is the "second brother of 5G". The reason is very simple, in those days when everyone is afraid of getting into trouble and avoiding Huawei, Ericsson has been saying good things for Huawei. A check, found that this is a century-old Swedish famous enterprise that established cooperative relations with China as early as the telephone set era, and it is even more awe-inspiring. I thought: People in Europe and the United States are exquisite, they are rivals with each other, but they want a fair war, is this just pity for each other?

Bao Yikang's touching text message
In October 2020, after Sweden issued eviction orders against Huawei and ZTE, Ericsson fought even harder. The day after the official decision was made, Ericsson stood up to say that this was unreasonable; in November, there was no sign of an official change of mind, Ericsson suggested that Huawei use legal means to defend its rights; in January 2021, Ericsson CEO Bao Yikang sent a personal text message to Commerce Secretary Anna Harberg accidentally exposed, which clearly wrote: If you do not allow Huawei to participate in fair competition, then Ericsson will move out of Sweden!

Three operators: I don't have feelings
Although Sweden has not changed its mind until now, Ericsson has not chosen to "abandon his wife and children". However, this righteousness has still brought a lot of comfort and touch to domestic netizens. In stark contrast, it is the cold-blooded ruthlessness of Telecom, Mobile and China Unicom, which have been cutting back on the share of orders that Ericsson can get. Ericsson's second quarter 2021 financial report shows that revenue in China fell from 4.1 billion to SEK 1.5 billion, a decrease of 63.4% year-on-year. This poor report card has caused Ericsson's total global revenue to decline for the first time in three years.
Mobile
China Mobile: Huawei ZTE is a good brother
In the third quarter of 2021, Ericsson's revenue in China fell from 5 billion to SEK 1.3 billion, a decrease of 74% year-on-year. While making a large number of layoffs, Bao Yikang shouted "vowed to redouble his efforts to regain the market share lost in China." However, the three major operators obviously did not listen much. In the "2022 2.6GHz Radio and Television Special Core Network Equipment Centralized Procurement Winning Bid Results" released by China Mobile, Huawei was the first winning candidate, ZTE ranked second, and there was no Ericsson in the list.

Ericsson was completely exposed
Some people shouted that Ericsson took advantage of huawei's forced absence to sign a 5G commercial contract. Some people also believed Bao Yikang's words, saying that Ericsson was innocent and that he had become a victim. Just as the two sides were arguing, Ericsson was stuffed. According to the news of Jiwei Network on March 22, Ericsson has made a decision to suspend the supply to Russia. This means that the 5-year cooperation agreement signed by Ericsson and the Russian operator Tele2 was unilaterally stopped. The 50,000 base stations written in black and white on the contract were reduced to ashes between Ericsson's thoughts.
Huawei
The eldest brother is still Huawei, and the second brother is still the second brother
The old saying has clouds, listen to its words, and it is even more important to observe its deeds. The actual action of Ericsson proves that the text message of "if you don't let go of Huawei, you will leave Sweden" is the same thing as the sentence in Jiang Wen's mouth, "Serious people who write diaries for people to see". That is to say, the choice of the three major operators is correct, and they have long seen through Ericsson. It is worth mentioning that with their help, the first brother of 5G communication equipment in 2021 is Huawei, accounting for 28.7%. The second brother Ericsson, with the "help" of the three major operators, is still the second brother, accounting for 15%. (Li Shuangxi)
