Ren Zhengfei Davos full speech about U.S.
At the 2020 Winter Davos Annual Meeting, that was held in Davos, Switzerland from January 21-24. Huawei founder and CEO Ren Zhengfei shared his view regarding the U.S. topic.
Ren said that Huawei was originally a very pro-American company. Huawei was successful today because most of its management was learned from the United States.
He said that since its establishment, Huawei has hired dozens of American consulting companies to teach Huawei how to manage.
He said that in the entire process of these companies have taught Huawei how to manage and now Huawei’s entire system is very similar to American companies.
The United States should be proud that its output has brought development to Huawei, he said.
The following is the full text of Ren Zhengfei’s speech, Translated Text Below,
I have read Harare’s books “A Brief History of the Future” and “A Brief History of Today”. I agree with some of his views on the laws of human society and on the impact of technology on the social structure and people’s ideology.
However, we must first see that science and technology are good. The development of science and technology is not for evil, but for good.
Humans have gone through a long history. Over the past few thousand years, human technological progress and people’s physiological progress have basically been synchronized, and people have no panic.
When trains and ships appeared, including textile machinery, people also had some small panics, but for the development of the later industrial society, these panics were eliminated.
In this process of continuous development, we have now entered the information society.
What time is this? It is electronic technology that has been highly breakthrough.
Although Moore’s Theorem will also constrain the advancement of electronic technology, today the ability of chips to be refined to 2 microns and 3 microns is no longer a question mark.
Due to the tremendous increase in computer capabilities, information technology has spread throughout the world.
Breakthroughs in biotechnology, breakthroughs in various technologies, breakthroughs in interdisciplinary and interdisciplinary breakthroughs, and breakthroughs in cross-disciplinary innovation have brought energy to human society. This is the technology explosion.
The explosion is a panic for people. Is it good or bad? I think it is good.
I think human beings will always use it to benefit this society in front of new technology, instead of using it to destroy this society, because the vast majority of people in the whole society yearn for the future to be a happy life and not yearn for evil.
When I was born, it was when the atomic bomb exploded in Hiroshima. When I was 5, 6 or 7, 8 years old, the greatest human panic was the atomic bomb, and the world was afraid of the atomic bomb.
However, if we lengthen the lens, atomic power generation and atomic energy are serving the society, including the use of radioactivity in medicine and in various aspects, which have benefited mankind.
So, we don’t need to panic about artificial intelligence today. The atomic bomb may harm human beings, and the development of artificial intelligence will not have such great harm to human beings.
Of course, our research is mainly on weak artificial intelligence. It has boundaries, certain conditions, and certain data support.
For example, the driving of cars, mining of mines, pharmaceutical technology, and a series of these things still have boundaries.
After this boundary was improved with the help of artificial intelligence, it increased wealth creation.
Everyone said that in the process of creating wealth, many people lost their jobs. This is a social problem. But wealth is always better than nothing.
Today, no matter the poor in our society, the absolute wealth is greater than in the past few decades, but the widening of the gap between the rich and the poor does not mean that the poor are moving towards greater absolute poverty. This is a social issue, not a technical one.
In fact, China’s current education still follows the education method of the industrial society, mainly focusing on the training of engineers, so artificial intelligence cannot develop rapidly in China.
Artificial intelligence requires a large number of mathematicians, a large number of supercomputers, a superpowered connection, and a superprogram. China is still in its infancy in these places.
So I think the United States has too much anxiety.
The United States has long been accustomed to being the boss of the world. Everything should be the best it can be. Someone else has done a good job and may not be comfortable in his heart.
It is uncomfortable and does not represent the trend of the world. I think that all human beings must study artificial intelligence well in the end and study how this thing benefits humanity.
Mr. Harari said just now that we need to formulate some norms. What is allowed to be studied and what is not allowed to be used to control its development direction.
I personally think that within 20 or 30 years or longer, the problem that Mr. Harari thinks about is that electronic technology has invaded human beings and merged into a new form with human beings. I think that it will still be possible within 20 to 30 years. Will not appear.
The earliest emergence is the process of production, the efficiency of production, and the creation of more wealth. As long as there is more wealth, the government has something to distribute and it can balance social contradictions.
When I published the article in The Economist, I also thought about what would come from the combination of electronics, chips, and genes.
But the editor of The Economist deleted it for me, because it also provoked a topic. I agree to delete it because I know I have a problem.
Originally, Huawei was a very pro-American company. Huawei was so successful today that most of its management learned from the United States.
Because we have hired dozens of U.S. consultants to teach us how to manage. In the whole process of teaching us management, in fact, our entire system is very similar to the United States. The United States should be proud. After its exports, it has brought us a development.
Therefore, from this point, I don’t think the United States need to worry too much about Huawei’s position and growth in the world. The list of US entities that hit us last year didn’t help much, because we thought we could basically resist it, and we had made some preparations.
This year the United States will upgrade technology to hit us again, but we don’t think we will be greatly affected.
Because we were a very poor company more than ten years ago, I did n’t live in a house 20 years ago. I lived in a house of more than 30 square meters.
Where did the money go? All are invested in the company’s research and development.
If we felt secure at that time, I didn’t need to make a backup. He said that because we didn’t feel secure, we made backups and spent hundreds of billions of spare tires. Therefore, we can deal with the first blow.
We have the experience of hitting us in the first round last year, so in response to this year’s technical blow, we are more confident and will not have this problem.
But will the world be split into two worlds as a result? I don’t think so. Because science is truth, there is only one truth. Any scientist who discovers this truth broadcasts it to the whole world.
The underlying logic of science and technology is uniform throughout the world, but technological inventions themselves can be diversified.
You see, there are many types of cars competing in cars. This kind of competition is conducive to social progress. It does not require the society to implement only one technical standard.
But will the world be divided? Because the underlying logic of science and technology is unified, it will not split.
As a contract society, we should understand a contract more deeply, such as a mine.
Can a mining be done entirely by artificial intelligence, nobody? Yes, we have achieved mining within a few thousand kilometers.
If this mine is in a frozen area or at a high altitude, this value must exist.
In the future, if some leading mines, such as those in Brazil, implement this mining method, will it be possible? Yes.
We must have a deep understanding of this enterprise before we can achieve it. Of course, it is not useful for us to understand deeply. It is mainly possible to understand by combining some mining experts and electronic experts. Only the combination of good doctors and electronics can achieve telemedicine.
Therefore, the depth of understanding of human beings is a step by step understanding. As for the future invasion of electrons into human beings, people will become gods. Don’t worry about this, because by the age of 80, this person will die. The soul cannot inherit, and he cannot Become a “God.”
In fact, the exchange of technology is becoming more and more convenient, and people’s understanding of things is becoming more and more sufficient. In fact, human beings are becoming smarter, and human beings are becoming smarter.
Just like we are now, in fact, sometimes we read the textbooks of elementary school students, we don’t understand much.
I remember a lot of things we learned in college and we have already finished in middle school, so we feel that human beings have actually improved in this information society. The results of different people’s grasp of knowledge are different, and the way to solve problems is different. The human subjective initiative should exist, unlike viruses.

We often get caught up in the numbers game when talking about new smartphones. We look at clock speeds, gigabytes, and chip sizes. But if you think about it, what makes you actually love using your phone every day? It is usually the little things—the way it vibrates when you type, the fullness of the sound when you watch a video, and how fast the cloud services behind your apps respond.
Huawei is tackling both sides of this coin. Brand new leaks and event announcements show that the company is working on a dual strategy. On one hand, the upcoming Mate 90 series is focusing heavily on the physical, everyday features we often overlook. On the other hand, the corporate side just laid out a massive plan for autonomous AI and cloud security at their INSPIRE 2026 event in Shanghai. Let’s break down what all of this means for you.
The Mate 90 Look: Focusing on the Features We Actually Touch
The upcoming Huawei Mate 90 series is already generating a ton of buzz because it is shifting its launch window to September. It is also bringing a brand new Kirin chip built with an advanced vertical layout to challenge global 3nm standards. But the latest supply chain whispers tell us that Huawei is spending just as much energy on the parts of the phone you physically interact with every single second.
Better Haptics: The New X-Axis Motor
Have you ever typed on a phone that felt hollow or mushy? It completely ruins the experience. Huawei wants to fix that by adding a brand-new, ultra-responsive X-axis linear haptic motor to the Mate 90 lineup. Instead of a generic buzz, this motor can produce crisp, tiny vibrations that mimic real physical buttons. Whether you are typing a quick text, scrolling through a menu, or playing a mobile game, the phone will give you clean, realistic feedback that makes the software feel alive.
Upgraded Sound: Immersive Stereo Speakers
Another big upgrade is coming to the audio setup. Most of us watch videos, take video calls, or stream music directly from our phone speakers without plugging in headphones. The Mate 90 series is rumored to feature a redesigned stereo speaker chamber system. By reworking the physical space inside the phone, Huawei is aiming for much deeper bass and clear, separated audio. It means you won’t have to cup your hand around the bottom of your phone just to hear a podcast while cooking dinner.
Huawei Cloud INSPIRE 2026: Moving Into Agentic Infrastructure
While the consumer team is polishing the physical hardware, the enterprise division is entirely focused on the future of artificial intelligence. Live from the West Bund International Convention Center in Shanghai, the Huawei Cloud INSPIRE 2026 summit just wrapped up. The big takeaway? Cloud computing is shifting from basic storage to what they call “Agentic Infrastructure.”
What is Agentic Infrastructure?
Think of normal AI as a tool that only answers when you ask it a direct question. An AI Agent, however, is different. It can think ahead, plan multi-step tasks, and make independent choices to help run a business or manage data.
Huawei’s new Agentic Infrastructure is a cloud setup built from the ground up to support thousands of these autonomous digital workers. It combines massive processing power with smart software, ensuring these AI systems can run continuously without lagging or crashing the servers.
Five Big Upgrades for AI Security and Keeping Things Legal
As AI grows more independent, security becomes a massive headache. If an AI agent is making decisions for a business, how do you keep its data safe? And how do you make sure it follows local privacy laws?
To answer this, Huawei Cloud announced five major security upgrades to its global portfolio. These upgrades act like a digital security guard, protecting sensitive data, keeping a strict eye on how AI models behave, and making sure everything complies with the changing regulatory rules in over 70 countries. It is all about turning AI from a wild, experimental tool into a safe, reliable coworker.
Connecting Your Phone to the Cloud
Why should the average user care about corporate cloud summits in Shanghai? Because the two worlds are rapidly merging. The advanced haptics, better speakers, and next-gen Kirin chips on the Mate 90 are just the gatekeepers. The real magic happens when those devices connect to a highly secure, intelligent cloud network.
When your phone can talk to a secure cloud infrastructure instantly, your voice assistants become smarter, your photo organization happens in a flash, and your data stays completely locked down away from prying eyes.
Conclusion: A Smarter, More Complete Tech Setup
Huawei is proving that a true flagship experience requires looking at the whole picture. By upgrading the overlooked physical hardware on the Mate 90 and building a secure foundation for autonomous AI in the cloud, they are preparing for the next big era of tech. Keep your eyes on September—it is going to be a very interesting fall season for tech fans!
Two tech companies, MTN Zambia and Huawei, have teamed up to fix a big problem: slow internet inside busy buildings. They just installed a brand-new system at the Mulungushi International Conference Center in Zambia, and it is the first time this specific technology has been used anywhere in the world.
Why was this needed?
More and more people in Zambia are using mobile internet to watch high-definition videos, live stream, and use cloud services. This makes the internet very slow in crowded places like airports, shopping areas, and big conference centers.
Before this new upgrade, the internet inside the Mulungushi Center was struggling. The outside cell towers couldn’t send strong signals through the walls, and the old indoor antennas couldn’t handle fast 5G speeds.
What is the new solution?
Huawei created a small device called LampSite. Instead of installing five different boxes for different network speeds, they put everything into one single box.
Here is what this new system does:
- Super Fast Speeds: It combines different network bands (including 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G) to give users download speeds up to 1 Gbps. This means videos and live streams won’t freeze or lag anymore.
- Easier and Cheaper to Set Up: Because it is a “5-in-1” box, the phone company needs half as many devices to cover the same area. This saves money and takes less time to install.
- Saves Energy: The device is smart. When nobody is using it, it goes to sleep to save power, making it eco-friendly.
Ready for the Future: It is built to handle even newer technologies coming down the road, like virtual reality (VR) and 3D glasses.
What the bosses are saying
Thomas Ngoma from MTN Zambia explained that this upgrade will give people the same fast internet inside the building as they get outside. It will make online video calls and apps run smoothly.
Dr. Philip Song from Huawei said they are proud of this new energy-saving system. They plan to install it in more crowded places like airports and business districts to help grow Zambia’s digital economy.
Imagine a future where a national power grid acts more like an organic, self-healing computer network than a chaotic mess of aging copper and transformers. If you think that sounds like science fiction, think again. On May 29, 2026, during the prestigious 2nd International Conference on Energy and Water in Luanda, Huawei teamed up with Angola’s Ministry of Energy and Water (MINEA) to release a historic white paper that promises to reshape the region’s entire power architecture.
The publication, aptly titled White Paper on Digitalization and Green Energy Transition of Angola’s Electric Power Industry, sets down an aggressive roadmap. It is a bold statement that digital modernization and structural economic survival are now inextricably linked.
A Visionary Leap for Angola’s Energy Grid
Angola is blessed with a staggering abundance of clean energy resources, positioning it beautifully to spearhead regional green integration across Southern Africa. But having raw potential means very little if your infrastructure is leaking energy like a sieve.
Dropping Watts, Adding Bits: The New Philosophy
To bridge this gap, the white paper relies heavily on a brilliant guiding principle: “more bits, less watts”. The idea is wonderfully simple yet revolutionary—by injecting massive digital intelligence (“bits”) into the grid, you can systematically optimize distribution and minimize pure power waste (“watts”). It’s about working smarter, not just pumping out more raw currents.
Resolving the Pains of Traditional Operational Models
Let’s be honest: traditional utility operations are feeling the strain. Arlindo Carlos, Angola’s Secretary of State for Energy and Water, frankly addressed the audience at the launch, pointing out the major bottlenecks plaguing legacy systems: heavy line losses, fragmented network management, and an expensive reliance on imported fuel. The status quo is no longer sustainable. By turning toward deep digital transformation, Angola intends to build a future power grid that is profoundly greener, smarter, and incredibly reliable.
Inside the Transformation: Merging Tech and Currents
So, how exactly does a world leader in telecommunications help stabilize a country’s power network? It happens by fundamentally shifting from hard iron to intelligent software.
The Power of Four Core Technology Clusters
The backbone of this collaboration involves fusing four vital technology domains into a unified ecosystem:
- Digital Technologies (Bits): Cloud analytics, automated software controls, and IoT tracking.
- Power Electronics (Watts): Next-gen converters and optimized hardware pathways.
- Thermal Management (Heat): Advanced cooling methodologies to minimize energy bleed.
- Energy Storage Management (Battery): Sophisticated, smart storage solutions to save power for when it’s needed most.
Evolving the Power Matrix: What Lies Ahead?
This initiative is not just a collection of theoretical ideas printed on glossy paper; it provides an explicit operational template for the upcoming years.
Intelligent Distribution and Advanced All-Optical Networks
Moving forward, the extensive, old-school infrastructure of the past will make way for automated, grid-forming energy storage systems and intelligent distribution grids. Backed by robust, high-speed all-optical communication networks, the grid can seamlessly detect faults, dynamically adjust power routing, and absorb fluctuating renewable energies from solar and hydro plants without breaking a sweat.
Conclusion: Lighting a Greener Path for Southern Africa
Ultimately, the joint white paper proves that the future of power isn’t merely about burning cleaner fuels—it is about managing existing resources with hyper-intelligence. Through the “more bits, less watts” doctrine, Huawei and MINEA are providing a shining template for the entire African continent. The digital power revolution has officially arrived, and it’s starting from the ground up!
