HUAWEI in India for the nine time to trade qualifications still insist on investment

Before to India by the end of May, the Internet is widely rumored HUAWEI investment frustrated the news in India.

HUAWEI registered in India, HUAWEI Telecom India Co., Ltd., and continue to invest $100 million. As the center for the development of South Asia, HUAWEI plans to invest and build factories in India in the next 3 years, and then cast $60 million. From 2000 onwards, they have 9 times to the India government FIPD (Foreign Investment Promotion Commission) to submit permission trade qualification, in July last year, India's National Security Council and the military departments to "national security" grounds, refused their request ninth times.

In April this year, the India National Security Council meeting again, HUAWEI plans to invest and build factories are still indefinitely shelved.

Even so, HUAWEI is still thriving in India, which is located in India, Silicon Valley, the center of research in the past 3 years, the scale of the expansion of more than 1 times, with total sales of $300 million.

What is the reason for HUAWEI in such a difficult external investment environment is still to adhere to the development of India? On the 8 day of the visit, the reporter heard some of the reasons why HUAWEI insisted in India.

Indians are less capable of understanding English

Liu Ting met at a dinner party. The reporter told him that many people think that the development of the domestic IT industry in India is mainly due to the fact that they are English speaking countries, and the number of people who can use English fluently is too small.

Liu does not agree. He said: "there are a lot of people who can speak English in India, but what really matters to IT is their deep understanding of english." Liu's point of view, the reporter will soon be confirmed from other people there.

At the HUAWEI technology research center, Mr. Liu's leader, Mr Lin Yanqing, agrees. He said that India is one of the four ancient civilizations, in the long years of British colonial rule, is a rich and rich culture of India. Therefore, the same sentence, we think a lot of people think they understand, in fact, often only make sense of the literal meaning, and India counterparts can see the meaning behind them, they understand more thoroughly than we do.

Lin Yanqing pointed to the staff who are writing software, said:. For example, cricket is a popular sport for the people of India, for the understanding of the cricket, Chinese employees certainly did not understand the profound indian. So, like the game of cricket and softball, they have more advantages than us. This profound understanding of the language, a profound understanding of the culture is precisely what the software needs."

India IT education more refined

Yang Yunyong is a reporter in India contact the first HUAWEI employees. The young man graduated from Tsinghua University, now in HUAWEI Telecom India Co., ltd.. For the rapid development of the cause of the IT industry in India, Yang also does not agree with the widely accepted language advantage theory. He believes that: the language advantage of India is not decisive, the fundamental reason is that India's higher education is the way to complete the European and American elite training.

Wu Zhihong, deputy director of HUAWEI technology research center, said the European and American elite education can only be considered one of the reasons. The main reason is that the education of India IT more refined, more specific, more targeted.

Wu Zhihong believes that they set up a research center in India is the largest overseas, because India employees are complying with the standard, very fine, in the software module, the concrete platform construction and Realization of the development, they can be more strictly according to the process and technical quality standards to do, every detail is very strict. These advantages coupled with the Chinese staff on the entire system architecture design and understanding of the thoroughness, can make the goal of the enterprise to achieve better.

"Does this mean that Chinese students are more creative and that India students are better able to achieve their goals?" Reporter asked.

"I can't say that." Wu Zhihong explains his understanding of creativity. Creativity is meaningful under the guidance of a clear need. On the other hand, if there is no creativity of a kind of rules, it may be meaningful to the individual, and the impact on the enterprise is sometimes even negative, because it can not bring benefits to the enterprise. India employees are not creative. Their thinking is very active, they often put forward suggestions for improvement, in a clear goal, they are always thinking about how to improve the quality and efficiency."

Wu Zhihong said, the past communication product code is hundreds of thousands of lines, is now, for tens of millions of lines, one life is done, must be a team with common development, which requires the fine division of labor and the strict standards and rules, to comply with the common process, then we can integrate into a product. India's IT education is more refined than China, more targeted, to teach students how to better achieve corporate goals. And we have a lot of computer science graduate students, even graduate programs written, you may not be satisfied. "This refinement and pertinence is the lack of our IT education."

India's intellectual property rights from the state to the staff

HUAWEI research center in Bangalore has 1100 employees, of which 95% are indians. Many media counterparts are HUAWEI's India employees whether job hopping, job hopping has triggered intellectual property disputes are interested. However, Wu Zhihong and Lin Yanqing are not worried.

Wu Zhihong said: "from 2001 to 2002, we are called 'IT' in the winter, many domestic companies
