ZTE's Essential Patents

The gap is not small. In the domestic 5G market, Huawei has obvious advantages. From the perspective of operator business, in the first half of 2020, Huawei's revenue from operators was as high as 654.38+0596 billion yuan, while ZTE's network revenue was 35 billion yuan.

Details China has officially started the commercialization of 5G, especially under the wave of new infrastructure. As a new type of infrastructure, the deployment and commercialization of 5G have been further accelerated, and the largest 5G network has been built. GSMA data show that 142 5G networks have been commercialized in 57 countries and regions around the world, and it is pointed out that the development of 5G in China is particularly remarkable, with nearly 720,000 5G base stations built to achieve continuous coverage of key areas.

With the commercialization of 5G, it supports tens of billions and hundreds of billions of massive devices to access the network, enabling the Internet of Everything to be realized, and combining with new technologies such as artificial intelligence and cloud computing, it promotes the transformation from the Internet of Everything to the intelligence of Everything. It should be pointed out that in the 5G market, Huawei and ZTE play an important role, and the two communication giants are the main forces in China's 5G construction, gaining the overwhelming majority.

For ZTE, since 20 18 suffered a heavy blow, because of 5G as the outlet of communication technology, major countries in the world started commercial services of 5G one after another, and 20 19 gradually resumed business. This year's revenue increased by 60.11%year-on-year to 90.7 billion yuan. In 2020, the revenue exceeded 1000 billion, which indicates that it is expected to make the revenue scale enter a new milestone with the help of 5G. According to the performance report, the annual revenue scale in 2020 will reach1013.79 million yuan, up1/0.7% year-on-year.

It is pointed out in the performance report that in the domestic market, we should seize the development opportunities of 5G and new infrastructure, realize the double promotion of market structure and share, and the domestic 5G share exceeds 30%. According to Yang, a senior consultant of the Internet of Things, in the context of new infrastructure, the huge opportunity of 5G release has ushered in a new round of development opportunities for communication enterprises. Not only did ZTE's revenue grow steadily, but Huawei's revenue also showed a steady growth pattern in a severe environment.

Previously, CBN was exclusively informed that according to the statistics of Huawei's internal financial system, the total revenue in 2020 was 65.438+0367 billion US dollars, up 654.38+065.438+0% year-on-year, and the profit was 9.9 billion US dollars, up over 654.38+00% year-on-year. Of course, the final revenue and other data need to be disclosed in the annual report. In terms of the revenue scale of Huawei 1000 billion US dollars, it is equivalent to RMB 880 billion, which is eight times that of ZTE.

It can be said that ZTE cannot underestimate the strength of 5G technology. According to IPLytics (an internationally renowned patent data company), who is the leader in the 5G patent competition? According to the report, ZTE revealed to ETSI that the 5G standard essential patent filing family ranked third in the world. In addition, by the end of 2020, ZTE has applied for more than 80,000 patents worldwide, and it is also the first camp manufacturer of 5G patents in the world. Due to technological innovation, it has brought steady growth of business. But there is still a huge gap with Huawei.

Although Huawei suffered a great test last year, it still handed over a beautiful report card, and its revenue scale exceeded the100 billion dollar mark. This mainly depends on Huawei's long-term adherence to technological innovation, making it a world-class technology giant. In the past ten years, it has invested more than 600 billion in research and development, and has strong competitiveness in smart phones, 5G, Internet of Things, cloud services and other markets.
