Why did Ren build a base station on Mount Everest?

Indeed, the construction of many 5G base stations on Mount Everest cannot be explained by any commercial logic. However, Ren himself also said this reason: building a 5G base station at the peak will not make money, or even lose money, but it will save lives.

Mount Everest is the highest mountain in the world. Mount Qomolangma attracts tourists from all over the world to Wan Li to challenge to climb Mount Qomolangma every year, but the news time of tourists' death is also frequently reported in newspapers. Ren Zheng Fei, president of Huawei, learned about this situation a long time ago. As early as a few years ago, Huawei teamed up with China Mobile to build many 4G signal towers on Mount Everest, and this year, it spared no expense to set up a large number of 5G base stations.

In fact, people's surprise is not difficult to understand. Everyone knows that Mount Everest is uninhabited, and the number of mobile communication users is close to zero (almost no one lives here). On the other hand, the construction of 5G base stations needs a lot of money, and the construction of 5G base stations in Everest requires Huawei to carry out large-scale construction, and the construction technology is also difficult. Huawei voted against it one after another, and some people talked about whether Ren was old and arrogant behind his back. However, he remained unmoved and insisted on carrying out his book-like problems to the end.

We may think that the communication facilities built on Mount Everest are meaningless to most people and have no commercial interests, but for Huawei, they will definitely lose money, but these 5G facilities are indeed a solid living guarantee for Everest climbers. Once these climbers are in danger and face the despair of life, signal towers and communication base stations become their only way to contact with the outside world and their last hope for survival.

Ren, president of Huawei, also said that blindly making money is not the fundamental purpose of Huawei at this stage. Huawei's ideal goal is to better serve mankind. In this way, I believe that those who questioned Ren before bowed their heads in shame. There is a saying like this: "There is never a lack of successful capitalists in business history, but a lack of noble philanthropists. Wealth can never be great, but virtue can. "
