1000000000 dollar deal francis p.s. a group benfield chrysler will join forces to create the world's 4th largest copper . this is business asia out of welcome the controversy over who always role as a supplier for 5 g. network infrastructure is heating up of the child as a bastard germany of excluding walwa hardware from the country's 5 g. network and reportedly threatened german comedy because we pick our sins machall said today that she had no knowledge of any pressure from china critics are concerned that huawei is too close to the chinese states and that it might use its technology to spy on foreign countries in an exclusive interview with the w y c o c e o said all of their actions are unfounded it looks like a renaissance castle in the middle of europe but it is actually only a modern replica and part of the research and development operations at china's

tech supreme oh huawei the campus outside of shenzhen was open this spring from the outside it's nostalgic britain large but inside it is futurism pure. while way demonstrates tomorrow's world of wireless communications here the company uses the facility to flex its 5 g. muscles while always take on the new technology is praised by many customers and it's cheaper than 5 g. systems from europe or the united states but many are wary with critics saying the threat for a while wait to misuse the technology is real the concern is that it would pass on user data to the chinese government the chairman of the company told doj avello the concerns are unfounded. all we want one way is never received any such requests during our operations over the past years and even if we received such requests in the future we would not agree to them without lawful requests we won't do anything

which will a woman. though there is no proof of data protection issues that while away the united states is vehement about locking them out of 5 g. network build outs germany is also wrestling with the issue beijing says it will retaliate against berlin if one way is banned in germany. you can find the full interview with c.e.o. or website which is of course you know dot com slash business buzz now let's talk more about this complex with cliff attuning who's with me in the studio know if it's interesting have it there from leon he said without full requests while we would not a gauge in the spine what of china changes the lore to i think so i mean if you turn it around has anyone ever said i will. surely opening of negotiation i think i think 1st of all the legislation is already in place that if if the chinese

government deems it's matters of state security chinese state chinese state and private sector actors are required to help the chinese government so while we would have no option so they don't even need to change the law given that there is a closeness there are links between the companies. has advised the chinese government on many occasions and there are all these different things that would you can't really see how they could say no there's a strong link between while we're in this chinese military era that's right i mean they've they've had contracts are enjoying fay who's the founder of huawei is formally a p.-l. a military man and so with all of these links there are just too many of them really to understand how how could possibly happen in china it's very very difficult to go against what the communist party says so any statement by who always official would not will really make a difference with it not really i mean i think it's meant as an act of goodwill more than anything else. we've heard a lot of. he's given an interview to us he's given the woman one more interview i

think recently conspicuously missing from this debate are the europeans west milky ways areas should just jump into really i mean it's one thing to question comes the ask myself is why they why they haven't stepped up even if you take quote way out of the equation where ericsson and nokia saying we can do is talk to us we can work out. a way to fix your systems we don't have the same pose the same security risks . but you're so that whole aspect of the dialogue is missing and what's also missing is are the european governments which are building out these 5 g. networks who are not saying we'd like to look at the european companies 1st now i know the competition rules and come into effect there but at the same time perfectly legitimate things to say wouldn't think so right that you can go for sort of the domestic market as much as certainly as much as you would for the for the chinese government option and they've been very good for we've been very good at selling the fact that they're cheap that they have the equipment. but there just

seems to be just better marketing. thank you very much for this inside we continue with china has just been days after a so-called phase one trade deal was announced trouble may be brewing brewing again though between the u.s. and china the trump administration is finally laws in a set of narrow rules to limit exports of sophisticated technology to adversaries such as china that's according to news agency reuters china on wednesday responded immediately the spokesman of the foreign ministry condemned the new rules that aim to control imports but said they would not cause huge difficulties for china. china firmly opposes the u.s. generalization of the concept of national security and abuse of export control measures to interfere restrict with the normal communications and cooperation between businesses we urge the u.s. to do more for mutual trust and cooperation and not the opposite it was. a new

car god is in the making francis p.s.a. group maker of persia and fear of chrysler have reached a binding agreement to a merger of the $50000000000.00 deal will create the world's 4th largest copper gives the aim is to join resources to address the challenges of future mobility. it's a merger of equals a $5050.00 deal worth $50000000000.00 it brings together some iconic brands on the french side there's persia and citoyen as well as germany's opel and then there's fear at chrysler with not only its namesake brands but also dodge and cheap and even some luxury brands alfa romeo and muscle roddie while some of these brands have struggled in the past and found it difficult to adapt to massive changes in the automotive sector together they form a strong global player. the merger creates a new number 4 in the world com market with combined sales of just under 9000000

vehicles chrysler is topped by germany's folks japan's toyota and by over an only son all selling over 10000000 vehicles per year the new company leaves behind american automaker general motors. together feared chrysler and france's p.s.a. will employ 400000 people analysts say the tie up could allow the french carmaker to break into the american market where it is not well established and could benefit from crisis position but they may face more challenges in asia where both companies are not seen a strong players and neither field tries to nor p.s.a. has a leading premium brand like some of their competitors the 2 companies say the merger will help them address future challenges such as the move to electric vehicles.

in france we've just seen that ranking the new car giant then the making is not that far behind the world market leader so is it time for folks and others to be afraid. well you had certainly in the mass market this new large competitor is not to be underestimated but i have to say generally among analysts for the car sector this merger is not perceived to be one of 2 strong players in the market that combined will form an even higher and stronger player this merger he was working on it in a sense the team because alone the car makers could. able to really finance the large transformation that the car makers are in right now which doesn't mean that the merger cannot be a success car last virus or last hour as the chief of push or is highly estimated among car analysts he managed to turn around he has managed to turn around push or

in the last few years he manages the integration of opel rather swiftly if there's one manager in this sector who can tackle this merger it's carlos tavares that's what i heard here today on the trading floor it's a mergers like this usually costs jobs what do we know about that. well of course this. only makes sense if the 2 companies lift the synergies that they calculate with now at the beginning of the merger colors tavares also is known as a hard nosed cost cutter and of course it's obvious that. car makers combined don't need for example all those design and engineering centers they have italy in italy alone has 3 such development centers with ordinary workers have to go well most probably there are estimates that the big group for chrysler has 10000 employees it
