Huawei. Following the ban on the company's products in many countries, and the arrest of the CFO, the first reprisals for the Apple company are beginning to appear, a ban on buying the iPhone being imposed on some employees. An important partner of Huawei has decided to forbid employees to buy iPhones from Apple, with the threat that a fine will be imposed on them if they do not follow the rule and buy Americans' phones.
Huawei. The Menpad company, which supplies LCD screens for the Chinese, has announced that it will fine its employees with an amount equivalent to the market price of the iPhone they buy from the store. The decision is a very radical one, but the Chinese company still offers 15% compensation for Huawei or ZTE phones bought by its employees, so all those who want an iPhone should think of something else, necessarily with Android, necessarily made in China.
Huawei. PROHIBITED for Employees to Buy iPhone
Huawei. Moreover, the company will offer double commissions to employees who sell products to the US, and its partners will receive double discounts if they do the same, as a response to what the US is doing against Huawei. What is happening in China is very interesting at the moment, the government protecting its company Huawei in a much more aggressive way than it happened with ZTE, which apparently does not have such close ties with the communist party.
One of Huawei's suppliers has threatened to fine its staff if they buy an Apple iPhone at any time in the next three years. If employees buy any iPhone for themselves, the company will impose a 100 percent penalty on the basis of the phone's market price. In an apparent show of nationalistic pride and support for its troubled counterpart, it also said it will stop buying any American products such as office equipment, computers and cars.
Huawei. To be completely honest, I expect Apple to be the most affected in China because of the war that the USA is waging at the moment, and this is because it is the "flagship" company of the Americans. Huawei is China's "flagship" company, and so we will see a very interesting war in which we see how much a government gets involved, for now, to protect the company with which it seems to have extremely close ties.
