In a recent interview, Yu Chengdong, Huawei’s CEO, said the company had planned a business development strategy in the past two years. He believes that next year Huawei will rise to the top in the smartphone market.

According to sources, Huawei has invested more than $ 5 billion in R&D (Research and Development) and hopes that the company will take the top position next year. Besides, the company also aims to achieve sales revenue in 2023 of 150 billion USD.

Yu Chengdong said Huawei is surpassing Apple and Samsung in many developed countries to become the leader in the smartphone market. He said that in the Chinese market, one out of every three smartphones will be Huawei. Expected this year, if there are two smartphones sold, one will be Huawei.

He added that this year (2019) is called the first year of 5G network technology. It is still under construction and will be more complete next year. Therefore, this year’s revenue is still based on 4G smartphones. Huawei is also one of the few companies capable of designing 5G chips, typically earlier this year Huawei released a Baron 5000 chip.

On some recent articles, Apple also wants Huawei to produce 5G chips for them and received “nod” from Yu Chengdong. However, Huawei’s CEO stresses that the US government is currently making it difficult for Huawei, so if Apple wants to get Huawei’s 5G chip, it will have to face big obstacles.

Huawei confirmed that Huawei Mate 20 X will have a 5G version and it will be released later this year. However, the company did not disclose changes in the new version. Accordingly, the 5G version will continue to retain the 7.2 inch screen but it will have significantly smaller capacity battery, only 4,200 mAh, compared to 5,000 mAh on the standard Mate 20 X version. The good news is that the 5G version will come with Huawei’s SuperCharge 40W fast charging technology.

Among fears over election advertisement and far-right increase, facebook boss Mark Zuckerberg says that governments could take a bigger role in putting more regulations on areas such as user privacy and election integrity.

The Facebook founder and chief executive emphasized that governments and regulators have to take “a more active role” as well as put stricter regulations on the internet and the social network. Zuckerberg said he believed stronger regulation should be implemented in four areas namely user privacy, election integrity, harmful content and data portability.

Mr. Zuckerberg believed that unless governments and regulators update the rules for the internet, we couldn’t make use of it and ensure the freedom of expression and business as well as protect society from expanding harms

Zuckerberg told that legislation was crucial to protect elections and it need to be updated. He also said that Facebook had already brought particular changes about political ads and it ensure the user’s benefits and freedoms.

Facebook has released that any advertisers in the EU will go through tighter checks due to the organization of European Union elections in May 2019. They need provide documents which confirm their identity and submit their location.

The company announced that all political advertisements with the sponsors on both Facebook and Instagram in the European Union must be obviously labelled.

The social network warned that it will block any advertisments without legal registration on mid-April.

Facebook will continually collaborate with experts in reviewing its policies in terms of harmful content, but Zuckerberg stated they will make argueing decisions and mistakes. Also, Facebook was creating an independent atmosphere to give people permissions to challenge its decisions.

Facebook boss added that the effective privacy and data protection required a “globally harmonised framework”, and together with the EU’s general data protection regulation (GDPR) they advocate more countries adopting rules.
