The Lesson of the Huawei Ban: Digital Walls Can Crumble As Quickly As They're Built Heroes are forged, not born. During World War II, the famous IL-2 kept flying even after being riddled by anti-aircraft shells and machine-gun fire from other planes. Although badly damaged, it finally made its way back home.

I'd like to start by asking a few questions, just about recent news. Can you help me understand what is happening with FedEx and the Huawei packages? Is there anything special in these packages? They said that this was an operational error. Do you believe that? Ren: Each year, we ship over 100 billion US dollars in goods to different destinations across the world through logistics service providers such as DHL and FedEx. All of these goods are normal goods. There's nothing to hide about them. As for why FedEx delivered packages destined for another country to the US, we have no idea. Only FedEx can tell us what really happened. Nathan VanderKlippe: Can you explain what you're 02 doing with Futurewei in the US? You've said many times that you have no intention of splitting off part of the company, but isn't that in fact what you're doing with Futurewei? Can we expect to see more of this sort of thing in the future? Ren: According to the US sanctions rules, as long as a component or technology contains US elements, it will be subject to US sanctions. Work involving Americans may also be considered to contain US elements. So, 02 Ren Zhengfei's Interview with The Globe and Mail Futurewei is a special case that was designed to meet the US's legal requirements. Nathan VanderKlippe: Is that one way for you to solve other problems for Huawei in the future? To divide up parts of the company and locate them in different places around the world? Ren: No. I don't think there is any other country in the world that would adopt this Entity List practice that the US does. So we won't duplicate the Futurewei model in other countries. Nathan VanderKlippe: You've said that Huawei does 03 not cooperate with the military on research, but we learned today that a series of people have co-authored research papers with the Chinese military, and identified themselves as working for Huawei. Does this not prove that Huawei cooperates with the military in China on research? Ren: Huawei has no research partnerships with the military at an organizational level. These few people must have acted on their own, in their own interests. We are not aware of why they chose to do this. You can speak to them directly and ask them why they did this. Nathan VanderKlippe: Do they still work at Huawei? 03 Ren Zhengfei's Interview with The Globe and Mail Will they be fired? Ren: As far as I know, there is only one person who is still working at Huawei. All the other people had left Huawei some time ago. Nathan VanderKlippe: And will that one person be fired? Ren: I don't know. I don't know anything about this person at all. He is too many ranks below me. Nathan VanderKlippe: What would be your message to other employees? Would you say, "Don't do this"? Would you warn other employees to say, "This is not allowed for Huawei employees"? Ren: Our products are only for civilian use. If someone works on anything for other purposes, it may affect their performance appraisals. At Huawei, we require every employee to contribute to our core businesses. If someone has made contributions elsewhere, how can they receive recognition from their departments? Nathan VanderKlippe: Is military research cooperation allowed for a Huawei employee or not allowed? Ren: It's not allowed. 04 Ren Zhengfei's Interview with The Globe and Mail Nathan VanderKlippe: You have a number of your most 04 important suppliers, such as Google, Arm, and others, who have been lobbying very hard for exceptions from the US entity listing so they can continue supplying you. What is your expectation for that process? Do you still plan on a sort of complete ban for the US cooperation with Huawei? Or do you expect some of your key suppliers to be given exceptions? Ren: It's understandable that our US suppliers are actively lobbying the US government in the hopes of being exempted from this ban. Such lobbying efforts are in their own best interests. Likewise, Huawei needs to buy huge quantities of products and technologies from these companies. Unfortunately, I don't think the US will remove us from the Entity List. They have added Huawei to the list not because we have done something wrong and need to be punished, but because they want to destroy us. If someone wants to condemn you, they can always trump up a charge. That's why I think the US won't let up in the short term. Nathan VanderKlippe: So you don't expect any of your key suppliers to gain exceptions as they've been asking for? That's not what you're planning for at this moment? 05 Ren Zhengfei's Interview with The Globe and Mail Ren: I'm not saying that they won't be successful. I just said that their efforts are completely understandable. We're not worried about the impact of the Entity List, and there are three major reasons why I feel this way: First, our team is more united than ever. Before Trump launched his attacks against Huawei, our team was getting sloppy. But because of the attacks, our team has become more united in working towards our goal to survive and thrive. We're becoming stronger-willed, and we are working with increased drive and passion. Second, we are creating a united front with our partners. We aren't angry with any of those US suppliers who can't continue to supply us. We understand, and we want to cooperate with them whenever it's possible. We will open our arms to embrace cooperation with more companies, no matter if they're Chinese or non-Chinese. We will enhance cooperation with any company that is willing to support us. As the Chinese saying goes, "A just cause attracts much support, an unjust cause finds little." This is how we are building a united front. Third, we are still moving in the right general direction. The US has been attacking our 5G, but 5G is only part of our network connectivity business. Huawei is a global 5G leader. We are also well ahead of others in the optical transmission, optical switching, access network, and core network domains. In this industry, we can continue to 06 Ren Zhengfei's Interview with The Globe and Mail develop by relying on our own chips and software, so we aren't affected by the US move at all. The impact on our consumer business is relatively larger. By adjusting to the new environment over the next one or two years, our consumer business will be able to continue growing. Despite the impact of the Entity List, we sold 10 million of our new P30 series of smartphones within 85 days of the launch. This shows our customers' trust hasn't declined. As of May 30, we had sold 100 million mobile phones. I believe we can gradually resolve the difficulties our consumer business is facing in the second half of this year or sometime next year. Nathan VanderKlippe: You said "adjusting ourselves 05 to the new environment", you figure that in one or two years you will have fully adjusted to the new environment. Can you help me understand what "fully adjusted" means? Does that mean at that point you will have the ability to produce all of your products without relying on American technology or American patents, et cetera? Ren: We have many patents and so does the US. We have signed cross-licensing agreements with US companies for many patents, and there are no issues 07 Ren Zhengfei's Interview with The Globe and Mail with cross-licensing. We would never want to live without the support of US technologies, components, and products.

The designation comes in response to ZTE’s apparent reexport of controlled dual-use items from the United States to Iran in violation of U.S. law, which the Commerce Department found was “contrary to the national security and foreign policy interests of the United States.” Companies in the telecommunications sector — including U.S. companies Richard L. Matheny III and non-U.S. companies that trade in U.S.-origin items — are advised to evaluate their customer base to ensure that they are not supplying U.S.- origin items to ZTE or its affiliates, whether directly or indirectly through intermediaries. ZTE’s Impact in the Global Economy This designation will have a profound impact on the telecommunications sector in the United States and abroad. Deeply embedded in the global supply chain for high-end telecommunications and computer networking equipment, ZTE is the world’s fourth largest supplier of smartphones with Jacob R.

  • Huawei and U.S. Law
    Huawei and U.S. Law February 23, 2021 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R46693 SUMMARY R46693 Huawei and U.S. Law February 23, 2021 Huawei Technologies Co., Ltd. (Huawei) has grown to be the world’s largest telecommunications equipment manufacturer since its founding in 1987 by a former engineer in Stephen P. Mulligan China’s People’s Liberation Army. The Shenzhen, China-based company has become the focus Legislative Attorney of a host of legal actions that seek to protect the United States’ national security and economy. In 2012, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) released a report describing the potential counterintelligence and security threats posed by Huawei’s access to U.S. Chris D. Linebaugh telecommunications systems. Senior officials in the Trump Administration asserted that Legislative Attorney Huawei’s products present an inherent security threat because the Chinese government can force Huawei to share confidential information or create “backdoors” by which the Chinese government could access Huawei systems. Huawei denies that its products create a security threat, and third-party analysts have not reached uniform conclusions about the security of Huawei systems. Given the security debate, Congress and the executive branch have initiated a variety of legal efforts to limit Huawei’s access to international supply chains, telecommunications systems, and markets. These legal actions have evolved from narrow restrictions on federal spending to an effort to remove Huawei equipment from domestic and international telecommunications networks. After HPSCI’s 2012 report, the United States enacted several laws that restrict federal procurement of, and grant and loan spending on, Huawei systems.

  • The Semiconductor Industry Into Its Trade War with China
    WORKING PAPER 20-16 How the United States marched the semiconductor industry into its trade war with China Chad P. Bown December 2020 ABSTRACT The US-China trade war forced a reluctant semiconductor industry into someone Chad P. Bown is else’s fight, a very different position from its leading role in the 1980s trade the Reginald Jones Senior Fellow at the conflict with Japan. This paper describes how the political economy of the Peterson Institute global semiconductor industry has evolved since the 1980s. That includes both for International Economics. a shift in the business model behind how semiconductors go from conception to a finished product as well as the geographic reorientation toward Asia of demand and manufactured supply. It uses that lens to explain how, during the modern conflict with China, US policymakers turned to a legally complex set of export restrictions targeting the semiconductor supply chain in the attempt to safeguard critical infrastructure in the telecommunications sector. The potentially far-reaching tactics included weaponization of exports by relatively small but highly specialized American software service and equipment providers in order to constrain Huawei, a Fortune Global 500 company. It describes potential costs of such policies, some of their unintended consequences, and whether policymakers might push them further in the attempt to constrain other Chinese firms. JEL: F13 Keywords: Export restrictions, supply chains, national security, semiconductors, Huawei, US–China trade relations Note: A revised version of this paper will be published in the East Asian Economic Review. It stems from a keynote given at the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development’s Global Forum on Productivity 2020.
