We also need new theory. Ideals give us a vision, and theory gives us the means to achieve it. Over the next 10 to 20 years, we must boldly explore new technological concepts, mathematical models, and algorithms, and in doing so provide society with new theoretical approaches in these areas. In the future, networks will be standardized, simplified, and easy to use. We must broaden our horizons, have a global view, and work together to create value. We must build networks on globally unified standards. And we need to make our contribution to the concepts, theory, and architecture of future data transmission. 2015: Focusing on pipe produced remarkable results In 2015, Huawei's revenue reached CNY395 billion (US$60.8 billion based on the year-end exchange rate), an increase of 37% year-on-year. Our carrier, enterprise, and consumer businesses all met the sustainable growth targets set by our Board of Directors at the beginning of 2015. While creating value for our customers, we have also increased the value of our company. And since the adoption of our pipe strategy, this year in particular has produced remarkable results. In our carrier business, our 4G equipment was widely deployed around the world and is now being used in the capital cities of over 140 countries. We recently launched our 4.5G solution to meet consumer demand for a better experience while protecting carrier investment in 4G. We have built over 280 commercial networks with our 400G core routers. Having implemented our Product + Service strategy, we now support the operations of over 1,500 networks globally, serving more than one-third of the world's population in over 170 countries and regions. More and more carriers now recognize Huawei as a trusted strategic partner. In our enterprise business, we applied our guiding principle of Business-Driven ICT Infrastructure (BDII) to lead the transformation of enterprise IT towards cloud architecture, and the transformation of enterprise networks towards SDN. We remain open to being integrated, and continue innovating jointly with our customers and partners. Globally, we are setting the pace for IT systems based on cloud architecture. Many Fortune Global 500 companies, such as the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, the China Construction Bank, Deutsche Bahn, Mercedes-Benz, and Volkswagen, have selected Huawei as their partners. We have participated in the construction of over 660 data centers, including 255 cloud data centers. In the future, we will continue to work with our partners to create a sustainable ecosystem for the cloud computing industry. 2 In our consumer business, annual revenue grew by over 70%, securing a position for Huawei among the top three global device companies in terms of market share. This revenue growth is attributable to the robust growth of our mid-range and high-end products, our rapid development in high-end overseas markets, and the great strides we have made with our Honor business model. Following the success of our premium Mate 7 and P7 smartphones, the P8 and Mate 8 further solidified our position in the mid-range and high-end consumer markets. Owing to its approachability and vitality, our Honor brand doubled its revenue in 2015, connecting more consumers than ever before. We have made remarkable achievements in developing our overseas channel, retail, and service capabilities. Our smart watches and fitness bands have hit the fashion world like a storm. In the Internet of Vehicles (IoV), we have partnered with leading global automotive brands. We have made rapid progress in software UX and cloud services, and have effectively satisfied user experience needs across all usage scenarios. Equipping ourselves with ideals and theory to embrace new opportunities Information has always been an important driving factor in the progress of human civilization. From letters, images, and voice, to today's HD video, we generate and consume information at all times. Our pursuit of high-quality information knows no bounds. Today, 4K video is no longer the talk of the town, and Virtual Reality (VR) has taken its place as the hot new trend. There is one thing that we need to understand, however: VR aims to simulate the sensory system of the human brain to deliver a near-perfect experience. This requires the ability to process about 5.2 gigabytes of data every second, which is 200 times the 25 Mbit/s standard defined by the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for future broadband networks. We no longer have to take out a second mortgage to pay off a night's worth of 4G download fees. But we need to consider the possibility that a 360-degree VR movie might

China Email: [email protected] Xiaobo Wu Cheung Kong Chair Professor honored by the Ministry of Education, China Qiushi Chair Professor of Innovation & Strategic Management Co-director Ruihua Institute for Innovation Management Zhejiang University Hangzhou, 310058, P.R. China email: [email protected] Constructing large multinational corporations from China: East meets West at Huawei, 1987-2017 Abstract: The telecommunication enterprise Huawei, founded in 1987, is one of few multinational companies emerging from China to date. The development of the capabilities that allowed Huawei to become a formidable competitor on the global stage undoubtedly owes a great deal to importation of best practice routines from the West with the help of western consulting firms. But Huawei is also distinctly Chinese. In the West, a founder who relinquished all but a 1.4 percent of equity in the firm to give the remaining shares to employees would be an abnormality. Huawei’s collective ownership arrangement (88,000 people own the other 98.6 percent of the shares) enabled management actions that are unthinkable in the West. The top 6,687 managers in 2007, for example, agreed to collectively resign from the company and to be selectively rehired to avoid falling under new labor law restrictions.

  • Built on Value the Huawei Philosophy of Finance Management
    Built on Value The Huawei Philosophy of Finance Management Weiwei Huang Built on Value “Huawei is an enterprise that deserves respect and is worth learning from. The great importance placed by this tech company on financial management offers us inspiration and insight.” —Liu Chuanzhi, Chairman of the Board of Legend Holdings Corporation, and Founder of Lenovo Group Limited “Enabling ‘lead to cash’, engaging in project operations, ensuring internal and external compliance, using the certainty of rules to deal with the uncertainty of results, allowing flexibility while also ensuring standard operations, rapidly striking a balance and then actively disrupting the balance, and inspiring dedication based on customers’ interests… These are what Huawei Finance has done. Huawei’s financial management practices have redefined the logic behind traditional finan- cial management, and opened a door to a broader world for Chinese enterprises that are working hard to catch up and overtake their global competitors.” —Wu Xiaobo, Director of the National Institute for Innovation Management, School of Management, Zhejiang University “Huawei is a world-class Chinese company that is capable of going head-to-head with the best in the global market. To compete successfully, Huawei focuses on delivering value to customers rather than just reducing costs. Huawei is also able to create value by leveraging the strengths of China. This does not only refer to cheap labor, but also to talented R&D employees who truly grasp core technolo- gies. However, just hiring these talented people isn’t a guarantee to unlock their potential. That’s why Huawei chooses to distribute shares to its employees.
