Huawei Shanghai Qingpu R&D Center has opened. What will the existing R&D center in Pudong Jinqiao do in the future?

The news that Huawei's Shanghai Qingpu R&D Center officially started construction has been on the screen for the past two days. Many people ask me, doesn't Huawei already have a big R&D base in Jinqiao, Pudong, Shanghai? Qingpu R&D Center has been completed. How about Jinqiao R&D Center? Will all the business of Jinqiao R&D Center be moved to Qingpu now? Let me answer them one by one.

Huawei Jinqiao R&D Center, where Huawei Shanghai Research Institute is located, began planning and construction at the beginning of this century, and was designed by the famous SOM design company that once designed Shanghai Jinmao Building. This huge single-family high-tech office building is in the shape of a Z, which is divided into A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H and J***. It is about 770 meters long from east to west, which is very imposing.

20 10, in the year of Shanghai World Expo, Huawei Shanghai Research Institute officially settled in Jinqiao R&D Center. However, Huawei's business has developed too fast. In a few years, Jinqiao R&D Center was overcrowded, and the office space and parking spaces were full. Huawei Shanghai Research Institute has to rent office space in other surrounding parks.

Starting from 20 16, Huawei began to build a new R&D base in Shanghai, with a larger scale, higher standards and higher positioning. Ren boss personally led the team, repeatedly inspected, and finally took a fancy to the Xicen area on the bank of Dianshan Lake. In 20 17, Huawei and the Shanghai municipal government formally signed an agreement to start the preparatory work.

Then, after the completion of Huawei Qingpu R&D Center, do you still need Jinqiao R&D Center? If necessary, for what?

In fact, the press release of the signing of the framework agreement for deepening strategic cooperation between the Shanghai Municipal Government and Huawei and the groundbreaking ceremony of Huawei Qingpu R&D Center project yesterday has already been answered.

The business cooperation areas mentioned in the framework agreement include integrated circuits, software and information services, Internet of Things, Internet of Vehicles, industrial Internet and smart city demonstration applications. Did you see them? Huawei has a very important business, which Huawei Shanghai Research Institute did not mention. Wireless communication service is the top priority of Huawei. Huawei's 2G/3G/4G/5G and the future 6G core R&D team are all in Shanghai. In other words, Huawei Jinqiao R&D Center is mainly engaged in the research and development of wireless communication, and the subsequent research and development of 5G/6G should expand the team. 6G started its pre-research several years ago and achieved initial results.

You got it? Huawei Jinqiao R&D Center has various businesses, except wireless business, all other businesses moved to Qingpu R&D Center a few years later.

In addition, it can be seen from this framework agreement that in the next few years, Huawei will develop rapidly in Shanghai in terms of integrated circuits, software and information services, Internet of Things, Internet of Vehicles, industrial Internet and smart city demonstration applications. It is necessary to recruit related R&D high-end talents on a large scale.

Because, in these fields, Huawei's R&D investment is now several thousand people, and it will be expanded to tens of thousands in the next few years, which is an opportunity for relevant professionals.
