In the middle and late September of 2020, Huawei held the "Developers Conference" and "Huawei Full Connection" Summit, which lasted for several days, and systematically released the status quo of Huawei's multiple business lines.
Although it is not a listed company, Huawei still publishes financial reports every year. According to its 20 19 financial report, this company, founded in 1987, currently has 194000 employees and its business covers 170 countries and regions. It is the world's leading provider of ICT (information and communication) infrastructure and intelligent terminals.
In 20 19, Huawei's sales revenue was 858.8 billion RMB, up 19 1% year-on-year, its net profit was 62.7 billion RMB, and its operating cash flow was 9 14 billion RMB. "The overall operation of the company is stable". Huawei's revenue can be divided into three parts: consumer business, accounting for 54.4%; Operator business, accounting for 34.5%; Enterprise business accounts for 10.4%.
On September 2020 10, Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei BG, thanked the developers and listeners.
"The desire to survive makes us cheer up and look for ways to save ourselves. We still have to stick to the road of self-improvement and opening up. If you want to be really strong, you must learn from everyone, including your own enemies. " At the end of July 2020, Ren Zheng Fei, the main founder, director and CEO of Huawei, said in a speech at four universities.
At the "Huawei Connected" Summit from September 23rd to 25th, Guo Ping, the rotating chairman of Huawei, also said in his speech that Huawei is now facing great difficulties. "Survival is our main line."
When asked at the press conference how long Huawei's mobile phone and base station chips would last, Guo Ping replied: The increased sanctions imposed by the United States have indeed brought great difficulties to Huawei's production and operation. At present, each chip was put into storage on September 15, and the specific data is still being evaluated.
"As for the surplus grain of the landlord, we are fully prepared for the 2B (enterprise-oriented) business including base stations ... As for mobile phone chips, Huawei is still actively trying to reserve related mobile phones because it consumes hundreds of millions of mobile phone chips every year."
He learned that many American companies are actively applying for export licenses from the US government. Like Qualcomm. If it is applied, Huawei will be happy to use Qualcomm chips to make mobile phones. He said that Huawei has strong chip design capabilities and is willing to help credible supply chains improve their capabilities in chip manufacturing, equipment and materials. "Helping them is also helping ourselves."
Guo Ping told a story. In 1960s, 100% China switch was imported. The Paris Coordinating Committee imposes export restrictions on technologies that are not available in China, such as No.7 signaling. From the principle, Huawei finally made its own PBX.
In the financial report of Huawei 20 19, the composition chart of annual sales revenue.
ICT (Information and Communication) is the core business of Huawei. Guo Ping summed up the current layout with the cooperation of "five machines": on the basis of the global deployment of 5G, five technologies and five opportunities of connectivity, cloud, AI, computing and industry application have gathered together. The opportunity of ICT industry lies in helping the government and enterprises fully enter digitalization and intelligence.
He quoted the report of Oxford Economic Research Institute, which showed that the investment of 1 yuan in digital technology could bring about the digital growth of industries in 3 yuan. Last year, the added value of digital economy in China accounted for about 1/3 of GDP, but its contribution to growth reached 2/3.
Guo Ping said that the digital economy is the main theme of economic growth. "The core of the digital economy is connectivity and computing. Multiplying' connection density' with' calculation accuracy' is' the strength of the digital economy'. "
At the Fully Connected Summit, a large number of guests from the government, state-owned enterprises and private enterprises shared their digital cooperation cases with Huawei.
For example, Shenzhen Airport and Huawei have built scenario-based flight business processes, seat allocation, ground support and other programs. In 20 19, 2.6 million ferry passengers were reduced, and the security inspection efficiency was improved by 60%.
Tang Shaojie, general manager of Shenzhen Metro Group Co., Ltd. said that Shenzhen Metro has 10 lines and 265 stations. In the past, hundreds of staff members completed patrol inspections every morning and surrounded Dai Yuefei day after day. However, with the help of 5G, video and AI technologies, in the process of subway operation, fault detection can be completed through video transmission, which reduces the inspection workload by 70%.
Peng Zhongyang, director of Huawei and president of enterprise BG, said in his speech, "The old map can't find a new continent ... digital transformation can't be achieved overnight. You must dig and iterate one scene at a time to move towards the future of digital transformation. "
For example, in terms of engineering deployment, the Australian Sky Tower project used to need 205 kilometers of optical cable, but it only needs 34 kilometers after becoming optical fiber; In terms of operation and maintenance, all-optical replacement switch can change the network architecture from three layers to two layers, eliminating the maintenance of the middle layer; All-light can also save a lot of weak electricity rooms, which not only eliminates potential safety hazards, but also saves electricity bills such as air conditioning.
At the "Developers Conference" on September 10, Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei BG, said that Huawei is currently a "two-wheel drive" of software and hardware collaboration: the hardware is a "1 8+N" strategy; The software is mainly the application ecology of HarmonyOS system and HMS.
Zhang Pingan, president of Huawei's consumer business cloud service, introduced in his speech that 1+8+N is a Huawei mobile phone; 8 are tablets, personal computers, smart screens, cars, watches, etc. N is other smart devices provided by partners that can communicate with Huawei hardware through HiLink.
"After May 16 last year, our new overseas mobile phones could not continue to use Google services, so we decided to build our own mobile service (HMS) application ecosystem to support Huawei's intelligent hardware."
The mobile service ecosystem includes five services: payment engine, advertising engine, browsing engine, map engine and search engine. Among them, the search engine is the most difficult. "Look, although there are foreign partners, but also can't rely on. You need to build from scratch, which is technically difficult and costly. " At present, the search engine has been launched, supporting more than 50 languages and 20 vertical fields.
The number of global developers who have joined the HMS ecosystem has grown rapidly, reaching 6.5438+0.8 million this year, almost twice that of the same period last year; There are 96,000 applications integrating HMS Core, and 490 million monthly users in Huawei's application market. At present, HMS has become the third largest mobile application ecosystem in the world.
"It is not easy to make up your mind to build a brand-new ecology. Faced with the tremendous pressure and challenges since last year, Huawei chose' one step rather than one step back'. " Zhang Pingan said.
At the "Developers Conference", Yu Chengdong recalled that he had been in charge of Huawei's consumer business since the autumn of 20 1 1 5, focusing on developing high-end products and building high-end brands from 20 16 to 20 19.
In the past nine years, Huawei's smartphone shipments have soared from 3 million to more than 240 million last year, ranking second in the world in market share. This is still in the case of difficult sanctions. Last year, it achieved revenue of more than 460 billion yuan, and it still achieved year-on-year growth in the first half of this year.
As of the second quarter of 2020, Huawei's mobile phone, wrist wearable and smart watch have the first market share in China, and the tablet and notebook have the second market share in China; In the global market share, mobile phones and wrists are wearable first, smart watches second, and tablets third.
HarmonyOS system is a distributed operating system for all scenes (mobile office, sports health, social interaction, media entertainment, etc.). ). Now it is open source and will fully support Huawei mobile phones in the near future.
At the end of the speech, Yu Chengdong said, "No one can extinguish the starry sky. Every developer is a spark that Huawei wants to gather. A single spark can start a prairie fire. "
In March 2020, Ren said in an interview that Huawei's operating system has always been open source and open. "We were forced to do this because we felt insecure. If we are still using other people's things, what should we do next time when others cut them off? It was the lack of supplies that drove us to Liangshan. We must work hard to make up for the missed lessons, otherwise we can no longer stand on this land. "
Since 20 16, the number of developers in Huawei's cloud computing field has increased from 25,000 to10.8 million, an increase of more than 70 times.
Zheng Yelai, president of Huawei's cloud business, said at the media meeting, "In the face of increasingly complex global geopolitics and uncertainty, from Huawei's point of view, cloud itself is a software-based product, and cloud software is our own code. Huawei Cloud has opened up new combat space for Huawei. "
According to the tracking report "China Public Cloud Service Market 20 19Q3" released by IDC in February 2020, Huawei Cloud ranked fourth in the IaaS+PaaS market for three consecutive quarters, with an increase of over 300%. The top three are Alibaba Cloud, Tencent Cloud and China Telecom.
Huawei's "building a car" is a hot topic recently, but in the summit, this topic was not highlighted.
On the eve of the Beijing Auto Show on September 26th, 2020, Xu Zhijun, the rotating chairman of Huawei, said in an interview that in May 20th19th, Huawei set up the BU department of smart car solution, and now it has 4,000 employees, and this year it has spent about 500 million US dollars, so the profit issue will not be considered in the short term. At present, Huawei is relying on its own communication and computing advantages to help enterprises "build good cars".
An interviewee close to Huawei revealed that the cooperation between Huawei and car companies is similar to being the "brain of a car", making cars smarter through a digital operating system.
In the overview map of Huawei's business organization in official website, it is divided into three parts: group functional platform, ICT business organization and consumer BG (business group). ICT business organization has five sections: operator BG, enterprise BG, network products and solutions, cloud and AI, and smart car solution BU.
In late July, 2020, Huawei's annual salary of "genius boy" became social news. An annual salary management announcement released by Ren shows that Huawei has implemented an annual salary system for eight doctoral firms, with annual salaries ranging from 896,000 to 20 1 1,000.
At the press conference, Guo Ping, the rotating chairman of Huawei, said that Huawei's current human, financial and business development is basically stable, and the company's human resources policy will remain stable in the future.
He stressed that Huawei will continue to attract the best talents. "The key to solving Huawei's problems is excellent talents. What does it take to turn sand into pieces? Relying on outstanding talents. "
"China's future and revitalization depend on children, and education is the only way to rely on children. Run more schools, implement differentiated education and stimulate their innovative spirit, and they will have confidence year after year and approach the door of the future world year after year. "
