House of Huawei: Inside the secret world of China’s Most powerful Company by Eva Dou
From a ‘factory,’ with only cold showers, no air conditioning, and ferocious mosquitos, an enigmatic, reclusive former engineer in the People’s Liberation Army who grew up in poverty, Ren Zhengfei, built the technological behemoth, Huawei. Its 5G network has been banned in Australia, acting under pressure from the United States, which claims Huawei is part and parcel of the Chinese Communist Party. The company is likely to become a further flash point in the U.S.-China relations, along with Tik Tok. Comprehesive, authoritative, well-written.
