Huawei Technologies let state television film inside its little-known chip research lab for the first time. The move comes as China showcases its technology strength before US President Donald Trump’s visit later this week.
Footage aired Friday on China Central Television showed Huawei founder and CEO Ren Zhengfei hosting Vice-Premier Ding Xuexiang at the company’s Lianqiu Lake campus in Shanghai. The visit focused on the Chip Fundamental Technology Research Laboratory, a facility Huawei has kept largely out of public view.
