Hu's New Year message is entitled "Our Thirty Years' Position: Building a Smart World with the Internet of Everything". In this New Year message, Huawei said that in 20 17, the global economy as a whole recovered well, and the ICT industry maintained steady development while carrying out industrial restructuring and adjustment. Huawei focuses on pipeline strategy, strengthens operational quality management, and persists in creating value for customers. It is estimated that the annual sales revenue is about 600 billion RMB, up about 15% year-on-year.
Huawei's three major businesses are carrier business, enterprise business and consumer business. Earlier this year, it singled out the cloud business and became the company's fourth first-line company.
Among them, in the field of operators' business, Hu said that operators' business is affected by the fluctuation of market investment cycle, but it still maintains stable operation. The fluctuation of the market has also made Huawei more determined to explore and grasp the trend of network construction from "investment-driven" to "value-driven" with customers. On the one hand, Huawei helps global operators to tap the potential of hundreds of billions of dollars of existing network assets with innovative solutions such as wide-quality, full-scene sites and mobile money. On the other hand, facing the future, we will accelerate the pre-commercial test of 5G, build an all-cloud network and digital operation and maintenance system with data center as the core, and provide services with the ultimate experience such as video, Internet of Things and cloud communication for individuals, families and enterprises to realize new growth.
In the field of enterprise business, Huawei said that enterprise business focuses on accelerating the digital transformation process of global enterprises, and constantly strengthens innovative products and solutions such as cloud computing, enterprise parks, data centers and Internet of Things, which are widely used in smart cities, safe cities, finance, energy, transportation, manufacturing and other industries. Huawei helps customers design the top-level ICT infrastructure through the leading "end, management and cloud" full-stack ICT solution, and at the same time, based on the "platform+ecology" strategy, together with partners * * * to create the ecological chain needed for the digital transformation of enterprises. At present, 197 Fortune 500 companies and 45 Fortune 100 companies have chosen Huawei as a partner for digital transformation. Enterprise business is showing its vitality and potential.
Huawei's consumer business has been outstanding in recent years. Hu said that Huawei's consumer business has made continuous breakthroughs in building a "world-class smart terminal brand". In 20 17, Huawei and glory kept pace, customer loyalty continued to improve, and the market scale grew rapidly. Huawei (including Glory) shipped 654.38+53 million smartphones in the whole year, with a global share exceeding 10%, ranking among the top three in the world and maintaining the leading position in China market.
For the newly established cloud business, Huawei said that it aims to work with partners to provide customers with stable, reliable, secure, credible and sustainable cloud services. Huawei Cloud's services have increased from 45 in 10 at the end of 20 16 to 97 in 14, including more than 50 solutions such as manufacturing, ei enterprise intelligence, e-commerce and SAP. Since the establishment of Cloud BU, the number of users and resource usage of Huawei Cloud has tripled. At the same time, the public cloud partner program was launched, and more than 1000 partners were developed throughout the year.
Hu said that looking forward to the future, emerging technologies such as 5G, Internet of Things, cloud computing and artificial intelligence are rapidly moving towards large-scale commercialization, and the digital transformation of the industry is entering the deep water area. An intelligent society characterized by "perception, interconnection and intelligence of all things" is coming. Strategically, Huawei focuses on the main channel of the Internet of Everything and strives to become the enabler and promoter of the intelligent society. Strategic thinking should be broad-minded and long-sighted, and management should be down-to-earth and down-to-earth.
Attachment: Huawei's rotating CEO Hu New Year's speech | Thirty to us: Building a Smart World with the Internet of Everything
Dongfeng is a good messenger of the sun, and every grass and tree meets flowers. 20 17 the overall recovery of the global economy is improving. The ICT industry has maintained steady development while undergoing structural changes and adjustments. Huawei focuses on pipeline strategy, strengthens management quality and persists in creating value for customers. It is estimated that the annual sales revenue is about 600 billion RMB, up about 15% year-on-year. Here, on behalf of the company's management team, I would like to express my most sincere thanks to all the staff for their hard work and dedication!
Operators' business is affected by the fluctuation of market investment cycle, but it still maintains steady operation. The fluctuation of the market also makes us more determined to explore and grasp the trend of network construction from "investment-driven" to "value-driven" with customers. On the one hand, Huawei helps global operators to tap the potential of hundreds of billions of dollars of existing network assets with innovative solutions such as wide-quality, full-scene sites and mobile money. On the other hand, facing the future, we will accelerate the pre-commercial test of 5G, build an all-cloud network and digital operation and maintenance system with data center as the core, and provide services with the ultimate experience such as video, Internet of Things and cloud communication for individuals, families and enterprises to realize new growth.
The company's business focuses on accelerating the digital transformation process of global enterprises, and constantly strengthens innovative products and solutions such as cloud computing, enterprise parks, data centers, and the Internet of Things, which are widely used in smart cities, safe cities, and industries such as finance, energy, transportation, and manufacturing.

At present, 197 Fortune 500 companies and 45 Fortune 100 companies have chosen Huawei as a partner for digital transformation. Enterprise business is showing its vitality and potential.
The consumer business has made continuous breakthroughs on the road of building a "world-class intelligent terminal brand". In 20 17, Huawei and glory kept pace, customer loyalty continued to improve, and the market scale grew rapidly. Huawei (including Glory) shipped 654.38+53 million smartphones in the whole year, with a global share exceeding 10%, ranking among the top three in the world and maintaining the leading position in China market. Huawei's new Mate 10 became the first mobile phone loaded with artificial intelligence chips, and we brought consumers a real smart phone that can be called AI-led. In the future, we will continue to understand the needs of consumers, explore the direction of change in the intelligent society industry, actively innovate in AI, AR and other fields, and lead the development trend of the industry.
We have newly established Cloud BU, aiming to provide customers with stable, reliable, secure, credible and sustainable cloud services together with our partners. Huawei Cloud's services have increased from 45 in 10 at the end of 20 16 to 97 in 14, including more than 50 solutions such as manufacturing, ei enterprise intelligence, e-commerce and SAP. Since the establishment of Cloud BU, the number of users and resource usage of Huawei Cloud has tripled. At the same time, the public cloud partner program was launched, and more than 1000 partners were developed throughout the year.
Looking forward to the future, emerging technologies such as 5G, Internet of Things, cloud computing and artificial intelligence are rapidly moving towards large-scale commercialization, and the digital transformation of the industry is entering the deep water area. An intelligent society characterized by "perception, interconnection and intelligence of all things" is coming. We should not only pay attention to industries and technologies that meet customers' long-term needs, but also grasp the trend of technological innovation and commercial change; We should pay more attention to the practical challenges that customers encounter in the process of digital transformation, and help customers solve problems, achieve business success and continue to create value for customers. The key to Huawei's continued success in the future lies in two points: on the one hand, the strategy should aim at the right general direction, but not pursue precision, leaving room for adjustment to adapt to uncertainty; On the other hand, we should keep the growing organization full of vitality. It is not easy to achieve the above two points. We should have strategic self-confidence and move forward unswervingly.
Strategically, Huawei focuses on the main channel of the Internet of Everything and strives to become the enabler and promoter of the intelligent society. We should do something instead of consuming strategic competitiveness at non-strategic opportunities, just like playing golf. Only by hitting the "sweet spot" of the club head can we get the farthest hitting distance without losing energy. Dare to be the first and continue to expand its advantages in the Internet of Everything; We only focus on connection, edge computing and distributed computing, and continue to build and consolidate our advantages; Everything intelligence is the result of the combination of industry knowledge and information technology. We focus on cloud computing, artificial intelligence on big data artificial intelligence platforms and devices, and realize the intelligence of telecommunication networks and all walks of life, as well as the intelligence of internal management.
Strategic thinking should be broad-minded, long-sighted, and management should be down-to-earth. Facing the complicated business situation, we should seek truth from facts, squeeze out bubbles and moisture, and effectively improve the business quality through the sinking of the focus of work; We must also be brave in challenging and charging, seize the opportunity of market growth, and calmly respond to market fluctuations. Management is a hard, tiring and meticulous work, and it is a comprehensive and systematic work, which needs long-term efforts to build. The representative office is the most basic and important business unit of the company. All the management actions of the company should focus on helping the representative office to improve its professional quality, from the front line to the organ, and then from the organ to the front line, and form a joint force around strategy, opportunity, goal, style of play and resource allocation, so as to truly create opportunities, tap opportunities and seize opportunities in practice. Operators should outperform the general trend of the industry, improve the quality of contracts and actively seek growth; The company's business should continue to maintain medium and high-speed growth and ensure that it will become the pillar of the company's business within five years; Consumer business should lay a solid foundation, continue the good development momentum and continuously improve profitability; The public cloud business should invest in accordance with the established strategy, improve product competitiveness, and concentrate on pursuing scale growth.
It is necessary to present its own value and contribution in the way of "spring rain moistens things quietly", gain trust, and constantly improve and soften the business environment to match the company's future scale of hundreds of billions of dollars and support business development at a higher level. Huawei's value cycle platform will be the value creation and sharing of the whole industry chain. We should make good use of the best resources, strengthen the layout where there are many resources and good policies, and build an industrial ecosystem. At the same time, it is necessary to improve the supervision ability of risk internal control and compliance operation, establish a crisis early warning and management mechanism, and protect the corporate image.
We will continue to select cadres from successful practices, so that more employees with a sense of mission and responsibility, strategic insight and determination, full of battle control ability, advocating fighting will and self-sacrifice spirit can take up important positions at all levels. In 20 17, we completed the promotion of 4,500 outstanding employees; In 20 18, we will continue to promote 6,000 employees, including 3,000 in 15 and 16, 2,000 in 17, 18 and 19, and other ranks/kloc. Representative office is the key business department for the company to achieve healthy operation and effective growth. In order to speed up the selection of representatives, experts, staff and other front-line cadres, the company will implement the Montgomery Plan for hard countries and regions and open up a smooth channel of "second-class to ordinary". Who says there are no generals in the Sahara desert, Montgomery, right? Adhere to the responsibility results regardless of seniority, and realistically promote the ranks of these employees according to the responsibility results; At the same time, we should see that the increasingly complex business environment puts higher demands on the ability of front-line officials, so we should speed up the empowerment of front-line officials, improve their post-holding ability, and make them brave and good at fighting. Accelerate the construction of the staff, and manage the deterministic work timely, accurately, quickly and finely. Accelerate the all-round construction of the expert team of the representative office, and train and select a group of civilian generals who are capable of writing and fighting. The chief officials of each management responsibility center should focus on being able to fight and win battles, take commercial success and sustained success as the only yardstick, insist on paying equal attention to driving development and preventing risks, and adhere to the coordination and balance between short-term benefits and long-term development; Senior cadres of the company should look up at the stars and lead the company forward. Officials and experts at all levels should learn from Kunshan and Guang Zhi, and really go deep into the enterprise site to understand the enterprise, find problems and solve them. We should dare to win the complicated information war with advanced weapons, and don't cover up the incompetence of the chief officials with the tragic culture made by Hanyang.
Hard-working talents are the source of value creation for the company. We adhere to the concept of "active, diversified and open" talents, and build a talent management mechanism for the company and talents to create a win-win situation. Faced with a more dynamic business environment and more complex internal business needs, we should open up organizational boundaries and integrate excellent resources in various ways. "A cup of coffee absorbs cosmic energy, and a bucket of paste binds the wisdom of the world"; Internally, we should dare to promote outstanding talents and give them more opportunities for growth; It is necessary to boldly implement differentiated management for all kinds of talents, and form a talent structure in which officials, experts and staff are responsible for each other, so that all kinds of talents can make the best contribution and get the best return at the best time and position.
In order to adapt to the more complex business structure of the company, we should gradually establish a distributed organization operation mode with equal emphasis on group governance and division of business units, clear rights and responsibilities, efficient operation and effective supervision, so that all businesses can grow independently under the control of the same values of the group and the support of the same platform. Our organizational form should be flexible, from groups to regional departments and countries, the form can be expanded or closed; The scale of our organization should be flexible. We can get resources when we need them and release them when we don't need them. Unswervingly continue to promote the company's business focus, strengthen the project-based organization and operation, and truly realize the front-line command of artillery and the support of organs. It is necessary to sort out the reverse operation after the transfer of management responsibilities and rights, establish a front-line evaluation mechanism, realize the transformation of government functions to platforms, services and markets, vigorously promote the streamlining and merger of government agencies, and reduce redundant and inefficient management levels.
We will continue to adhere to the values of "customer-centered, strugglers-oriented and long-term efforts", adhere to the evaluation principle of "responsibility-result-oriented", implement the two-wheel drive of "material civilization and spiritual civilization", combine the vision and mission of the organization with the personal work motivation of employees, and constantly stimulate the internal motivation of the organization and employees to pursue higher success. On the basis of internal and external compliance and self-responsibility, management is based on trust and promotes the subjective initiative of various organizations and cadres and employees. It is necessary to simplify the process KPI, strengthen collaborative assessment, and reshape the spirit of group struggle of "toasting each other if you win, and saving each other if you lose".
In 20 18, Huawei stood at the age of 30 and was in its prime. In the next twenty or thirty years, mankind will enter an intelligent society. Facing the new era, Huawei is determined to bring the digital world to everyone, every family and every organization, and build a smart world with the Internet of Everything. This is not only a great vision that inspires us to make unremitting efforts, but also a sacred mission that we shoulder.
Looking for a stranger, flowers are like brocade, and the first branch of the east wind is broken. A new era full of hope and vitality has arrived. I believe that after many years, you and I will still be excited because we are in Huawei and have experienced such a Pentium era. Here, I wish all my colleagues and families a happy New Year. 20 18, let's embrace more gains and growth together and create a better future!
