a deep crisis with china. that if you would walk away. not good for that and i really made the decision it's much simpler not to do anything that well when you shop maybe but that united states is fighting us with force and determination we didn't expect them to hit so hard to push. how did it come to this how did the chinese telecom company while way find itself involved in new technological and geopolitical war. we're now in an era where technology artificial intelligence quantum computing telecommunications and cellphones are the commodities that are driving conflict on a global scale. the reason behind america's anxiety regarding one way is that its activity reaches much farther than telecommunications he who dominates will undoubtedly dominate a large portion of to moore's economy. a 5 g. network deep sea cables facial recognition cameras the cities of the future one way

all too young while we employees among the thousands that work here. the company holds its head up high with pride and ambition. but they can't ignore the tenacity of a special party now with ice cold water to cool its authors donald trump and his accusations of picked up on by parts of the west are on everyone's minds here. that . was something about never down to yoko something number down on it's not fair it's time some. great something. everywhere and everywhere in the lord knows about the cause and one talks about it and everyone has the faith and. it does not out the above.

always one of the great success stories of the 21st century. drum out music u.s. companies from doing business with the chinese room last week. about 3000000000 people and more than 170 countries use that product itself more smartphones than our poll and a fact that only a fan found more especially in just one week this neighbors become synonymous with the trade war between the united states and china one way the chinese telecom giant weiwei is accused of espionage by washington and threatened with losing access to american markets and technology cares. a few months ago just pronouncing the company's name was a challenge. since then while weight has made a name for itself firstly with his smartphones 59000000 of them sold across the globe in the 1st quarter of 29001 it's fewer than something more than apple with only 36000000 cell phones sold
6:22 am
a 1st of the brand. huawei use is one of the biggest chinese companies it's grown exponentially over the last decade in pretty much every part i'm talking occasions they're building phones they're building wireless networks they're building all sorts of components and they're one of 4 mean suppliers of 5 g. technology which is going to be an evolutionary change a new world punctuated by technology warts and devoured by geo strategic tensions. at the heart of these new states is an announced revolution. ultimate weapon developed by way adventure which is tormenting the west for 5 g. technology. 5 g. promises to change our societies forever a new world of connected objects unmatched power and speed of connections. the 5th
6:23 am
generation of mobile communication is about to change our lives for better or for worse. the stakes are incredibly high and while way knows it. the chinese company is the world leader and it's estimated that it has a 2 year take on much commitments each over its rivals a good portion of that r. and d. has gone and the 5 james. second factor is that we started doing it earlier than most other companies we started investing in 5 g. in 2000 and. 3 the difference between 4 g. and 5 she is as wide as between a situ and a ferrari would be from $2.00 to $3.00 to $4.00 g. improvements were made every time will you dear improvements if you like i don't get it whereas the 5 g. is a complete break because it involved brand new technologies e.d.s. any americans developed 340 and sat on their laurels and they clearly did not suspect that the chinese had understood i mean if you you know but they had lost
6:24 am
the battles for 23 and 4 g. about that and then said ok now we'll invest in 5 g. and gain the advantage is what i sang on levels. ok i couldn't get it to. show what it is is an industrial robot supported by a very stable high speed high quality 5 g. wireless connection so ordinarily these robots would have cable transmitting power to them and controlling them. but there's a wire that's. what we provide because it is the network that allows very high capacity transmission data very stable transmission data which means there's no delay a network that will support many thousands and in the millions of connections it.
6:25 am
was a little disappointed if when you click on your smartphone today that you have what's known as lag times. in with 5 g. that doesn't exist anymore when you click the. page appears immediately what does this revolution offer realistically and i mean which i thomas vehicles at distance medicine and the internet of things is of it and online real time gaming virtual and augmented reality the 2nd time it will be so we're going to see whole sectors of the economy switching to this network to do something that's why the geopolitical stakes are so high he who dominates it will undoubtedly dominate a large portion of to morrow's economy he could. go to have to ask you did an operator equipped with 5 g. can gather data as it passes through its systems will possess a vast amount of information on everything going on all should you have if he then uses it for his own benefit then there is a real danger that the voice said i don't so we will need to ensure that he can't
6:26 am
use it but if a government of a certain country were to gather and use it for its own benefit it could pose a big threat to other countries or was it done. this is the fear of a number of western countries and that the heads of the united states. the american government fears that while away with its immense network could serve as a trojan horse and eventually help the chinese government to spy and gather data. 5 g. networks must be secure there must be strong they have to be guarded from the enemy we do have enemies out there. it's difficult to understand that a telecom network has a heart with lots of little tentacles attendee that gather data if you're at the heart of this network and you have access to all this data you can collect phone numbers addresses consumer information etc so this heart is
6:27 am
a highly sensitive subject. and a good example would be. the african union the african union headquarters was ultimately a gift from the chinese government and all the telecommunications equipment in the african union. headquarters building was provided by the way and it was about 5 years into the operation of this facility the engineers discovered that every night significant volume of traffic was being sent back to china from the network which was presumably everything from audio and video from. the private meetings that were happening to the contents of their file server every night it's not clear that while we had any direct role in the labeling that certainly. could have unilaterally put software in place to do something like that. but large scale espionage like that is the 2nd concern of weiwei being used in operational
6:28 am
networks research faced with suspicions and accusations from america the founder and c.e.o. of one way spoke up in fantasy swearing that he had absolutely no intentions. to see your real home and this our company used back doors i can assure you 100 percent you know we do not use backdoor scotch and we are prepared to sign an anti back doors agreement with any government that requests. while one has always pleaded not guilty demanded proof that it states sure that its equipment is ultra securitized. that barely reassures the trumpet ministration which fears on top of a spinach
6:29 am
a large scale cyber attack coming from overseas. robert strang is the deputy assistant secretary of state to cyber and international communications on the scene. because we so many more devices on these 5 g. networks there's going to be an expanded attack surface area if you will of ways that actors could seek to undermine our way of life we're also going to have opportunities because there's so much more software going over so much more code there will be also additional points of vulnerability for concern that in china unlike in western democracy there is no ability for a company to object to the commands it receives from the government itself or in china's case from the communist chinese communist party they can't go to an independent court for judicial review to object to it being instructed to acquire
6:30 am
data or to disrupt that critical infrastructure that's going to be created by the 5 g. networks. by 2025 they could be between 50 and 100000000000 connect you don't know. machines and equipment running things to find and many of them open to attack. if they have access and they have the off switch and suddenly if there's a war if there is a conflict between the u.s. and china it's the bad case scenario but if huawei is in your network maybe they can shut it down shut down your phones should down your calls shut down your power plants shut down your water infrastructure all these critical free. to the president signed an executive order on wednesday allowing us to ban foreign telecommunications equipment and service that this is part of the white house the president's commitment to protecting information and technology there saying that
6:31 am
the president here is declaring a state of emergency a national emergency. just this once the u.s. president seems to be backed by a large portion of these countries elected men and women in his face off with one way and china in the corridors of congress in washington numerous senators both republicans and democrats fire off rounds of the chinese company with no holding back the major risk is one once you have something built in your communication system that has a back door in it that means whatever's on your cell phone or whatever's in your communication can be intercepted by someone else and so people want their cell phone communication to be protective a don't want to be of what they don't want some other 4 names or whether it be an individual actor or formation and they were actually your data well i think wall way is a security threat not just the united states but to france to the west so i think it's very important that allies around the world. recognize that this
6:32 am
is a long term security threat to. the united states allies are also beginning to banish the chinese giant strain to plan and now new zealand. i'm naturally donald trump's blacklisting is harming wildlife financially. its international smartphone sales who fall in 40 percent in 2 months. so cool and what the americans are forbidding is access to get the big 5 of google apple facebook amazon and microsoft set up. on the place will cause problems for wall ways because if they want to find a route they won't have access to google maps if they want to video no you tube they want to send an e-mail no g. mail anymore they want to send a message to friends on facebook they don't have it anymore all of these services
6:33 am
are defacto excluded from one way smartphones a different way with. in china that doesn't really matter because google is not allowed. huawei sells about half of its phones somewhere else a lot of them are sold in europe and some of the phones are some of the best phones in the world right now some of the best phones for the money but now a lot of customers will think well wait a 2nd if i can have all these google applications right the google apps tor google maps g.-mail google drive then i'm going to go ahead and buy another brand. a 2nd one way is another means of putting pressure on china destabilizing a competitor with the strength. for a long period of time china has taken advantage of. $375000000000.00 in trade deficit came about year after year we don't want that not fair not right.
6:34 am
since playing with that see if i have no idea why donald trump is so intent on waging war on while way we have several theories. one is that he doesn't want foreign technology notably while ways to be better than america's technology ali that seems will be will make one hot dish a 2nd is that why waste technology is so advanced and so secure it would prevent the united states from spying on its own people and on other countries will audition away if it's about the comment about he has made confronting china on trade a major issue for his administration and i think the wall way. problem is part of that if wall way was located in brazil it was an indian company if it was a european company nobody would care but because it's part of the sarge or picture
6:35 am
of aggressive china a china that uses predatory trade practices and a china that is now the leading source of espionage against the united states put all that together and they've decided to go after them. back to kind of imagine this company's great destiny. how is it grown so quickly to become emblematic of an entire nation one time in its history. when one was founded in 1907 china was in full growth. 10 years beforehand the new leader thing shopping had launched his great modernization reforms with a single objective to elevate china to the rank of a world superpower. today's
6:36 am
china is entering a new phase here we are now focusing our efforts on the modernization of farming and industry science and technology along with national defense so we can we do our country in a typically chinese way. in the 1980 s. when huawei was born when it was just getting started and. the chinese market economy was also in just getting started so the chinese government in beijing which is thousands of miles away in the north of china decided you know we're going to have a few cities where we're going to try out capitalism and we're going to try out in very small steps the chinese leader at the time a little small man named done shopping said we're going to just do trials we're going to cross the rivers by feeling for the stones. among the places chosen to test chinese style capitalism. a small fishing village
6:37 am
a stone's throw from hong kong. it is there that while we was founded. if the reforms put in place by doing shopping were very progressive it started with agriculture and giving farmers the opportunity to own some of their land deals started to skyrocket 20. in the place so after that he extended them to industry is a good use for the. people in them began to think you know i can make some money i can become a company it was a change if you had a private sector it didn't exist before chloe was on the family totally represents the rise of the economy of china a country that no longer produces low cost products and also the end of plastic objects and textiles made in china it now represents china as a technological power a force of innovation investing in r. and d. and that's why while way is the chinese symbol.
6:38 am
way has created $160000.00 jobs worldwide and posts a record turnover of $100000000000.00 because it has discreetly taken advantage of china's opening up to the global markets. by the way was founded by mr van with a mere $21000.00 u.n. about $5000.00 at the time and a handful of employee. yes there was a huge need for telecommunications on the chinese market because nothing existed so he seized the opportunity. rendering thing the founder and big boss while waiting. for the month of chinese ambition and success. wrenching for a visionary warlord. his military past with the chinese people's liberation army is at the heart of the west's fears on the current trade war.
6:39 am
we do know that the founder has a military past so he was with the people's liberation army at the start reportedly news reports suggest that they had an early contract with the people's liberation army so that they might have helped them was becoming a contractor with the chinese government and the chinese military. there's a significant concern that the people's liberation army the p l a could use those connections to either get access to walk away equipment worthwhile way source code or have the ability to insert malware and huawei products. or something eastern when served in the engineering corps of an army with millions of soldiers so if you follow the logic of our detractors it means that these millions of people are still closely linked to the chinese government are to him and well what else can i say to
6:40 am
prove that mr wrenn has no such links he's just an ex army engineer who became something else once his tour of duty was over the west should be able to understand that while ways history shows that it's a product of a china which has to be formed and opened up in order to strengthen competitiveness and bring prosperity to the chinese economy so that it can enter into global markets how much. well we also promotes itself as being a totally private company. with 0 shares owned by the chinese state and. a lot of our founders owns about 1.4 percent of the shares so the company is almost completely run by our 90000 employees decent media while you say well that's very rare in china i'm also a shareholder albeit a very small one but every year the dividend is shared out among us all.
6:41 am
to demonstrate it's technologically. well wait exceptionally allowed us into its laboratories in warehouses in southern china. they stretch out as far as the eye can see. these immense concrete hangers spew out thousands of brand new smartphones ready for export across the globe. to enter special can be bigotry the phones are assembled on the last section of the production lines 30 hours is required to manufacture a single unit. or a few employees most of the work being performed by robots. beyond the production lines the true pride of the chinese brand is hidden on either side of these corridors. and it's the mysterious mood rayna's to do it
6:42 am
these are the labs of the way research and development center. this engineer for example is developing 5 g. and 10 i capable of withstanding the worst weather conditions. to disprove the world off as. the 1st one is a common one it's a common culti common. and this is what. the water was. get accumulated on the surface so while we are developing this technology and you know that. we're not just signal is a millimeter wave it's transmission abilities kind of weak soul. especially some called places you know for us to go into it's also kind of call it made because of the way the 6 layer of snow we developed this special called the technologist to stop water ice accumulation on the surface so there was b.s. to claim that. there. is a company which has filed the most patents in the world 5428
6:43 am
a record that's twice as many as mitsubishi and intel who trail in 2nd and 3rd place inventions dreamed up by young scientists like the 32 year old tundra to which were developed for further studies in germany a simple reason 1st team to use the weaver chamber because now other companies are using it hence we are this is a plan for. inside just water so especially where you play games you can feel your increase in temperature into corners. to get where it is while we started out like many chinese companies drawing on western inventions through forced technology transfers. a company wanting to operate in china must surrender its patents and transfer them
6:44 am
to the chinese. or live you don't need we've seen this in aeronautics and in manufacturing. as if you're obliged to transfer your patents and explain your manufacturing processes with of me just what's more china also obliges you to help build their plants and set up the whole process from a to z. little. illegal practice for sure but one to which all too often copies and even thanks to the intellectual property already. showing them the trick is a bit like the original sin of all chinese companies while we started by copying the big western brands even at the origin of their base products which were network components was on high so i spoke with an engineer alcatel who told me they
6:45 am
discovered products that were identical to there is in china. china's aircraft manufacturing china's high speed train which looks very much like a german high speed train it's part of how they've built their industry stealing technology has been part of china's opening to the west since the beginning when shopping said china would now open its markets to the west. to. the u.s. and bailed weeping charges against chinese tech giant huawei on monday formally accusing the company and its affiliates of stealing trade secrets indictments say wow way employees undertook a scheme to steal team moguls robotic technology named chappie employees allegedly took numerous unauthorized photographs of tapping and secretly removed part of it
6:46 am
