  A reporter from Securities Times · e company found that Ren Zhengfei stated at the beginning of the article that this trip to Dongying was not to feel the breath of an exotic spring and appreciate the cherry blossoms all over the mountains and plains, but to learn the experience of surviving winter.

  Ren Zhengfei said, who would have thought that Japan has endured the coldest and longest winter after the war in the past ten years, but at that time Japan was as quiet, peaceful, clean, prosperous and comfortable as it was ten years ago. The people's spirit of patience, optimism, diligence and struggle has not changed, their beliefs have not changed, and their love for life and work has not changed.

Can withstand the severe cold of winter; whether the fast-growing cash flow will be interrupted, such as when the river freezes, there will be a trickle, so that the enterprise will not be completely stagnant... These are all things that business leaders should study in advance. There will be winter, so prepare your cotton-padded clothes, better than not. How should we deal with Huawei's winter?" Ren Zhengfei said that this was a question he thought about during his visit to Japan. I don't know if Huawei people will still be calm, deal with it calmly, overcome difficulties, and look forward to spring.
