According to Mr. Nham, the software department needs to find a suitable business direction to be able to compete in the market. He advises employees to get “nutrients” from open technology communities and apply it right to the company’s conditions. In addition to software, Huawei’s rotating CEO, Eric Xu, also announced in April that the company will invest more than 1 billion USD in the smart car segment, and is expanding cooperation with Changan, a car manufacturer belonging to Huawei. state-owned, to develop automated semiconductors and designs.
