Huawei is confident that Western countries will have to buy its products because of their competitiveness, the Chinese telecom giant's CEO and founder Ren Zhengfei told China Central Television in an exclusive interview on Thursday.
"This is a race. It all depends on whether you do it well. When you have superior products, there is no need to worry about buyers, and I have never worried about that," Ren replied when asked about how to cope with some countries' restrictions and bans on the company.
Ren said Huawei is the best in the area of 5G, and is the only manufacturer in the world that is capable of equipping 5G base stations with the state-of-the-art microwave technology, which perfectly suits Western countries where scattered villas are ubiquitous and are in need of high-speed information services.
Of course they can choose not to buy the equipment, but that means they will have to pay much higher prices to build other network services, he said.
"This is a race, and peaceful competition. Technological competition is a peaceful one. They won't have any alternative but to buy the advanced technologies," said Ren.
He said the restrictions from a few countries won't have big impacts on Huawei.
Until last December, Huawei said it had secured more than 25 commercial contracts for 5G, the largest in the world, and has shipped more than 10,000 base stations for the fifth generation of mobile communications.
