A video of Huawei Vice Chairman Meng Wanzhou returning to China after being released from house arrest in Canada for nearly three years last month is recording explosive views in China.
On the 25th, Huawei headquarters in Shenzhen, China.
As Vice Chairman Meng Wanzhou appeared, the waiting supporters and company officials cheered and applauded.
On every floor, employees who came to see Meng shouted 'Welcome to Goddess', and some employees danced as a group.
On Chinese social media, this video on the way to work quickly garnered more than 200 million views, and the hashtag 'Meng Wanzhou returned to work' also recorded 240 million views, ranking first in the search rankings.
There is a reason that Vice Chairman Meng's departure to work is so welcomed in China.
Previously, in 2018, Meng was arrested in Canada on charges of trading telecommunications equipment with Iran despite U.S. sanctions. Last month, he reached an agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice to postpone the prosecution, and returned to Korea on a chartered plane arranged by the Chinese government.
Meng's arrest and lawsuit was not a personal matter, but one of the core conflicts between the United States and China.
There are also analyzes that the Chinese are accepting Meng's return as their victory.
