If NEC and Fujitsu cannot do their best, it will be China that will win the US-China 5G war.

It also affects the judgment of Germany and France

[From London] Oliver Dowden, Minister of State for Digital, Culture, Media and Sports, has announced a limited acceptance policy in January in the House of Representatives on the issue of entry into the next-generation communication standard 5G by Huawei, a major Chinese communication equipment company. He announced that he had switched to total exclusion.

"In May, the U.S. Department of Commerce imposed new sanctions on Huawei. Uncertainty in the supply chain made it impossible to guarantee the security of 5G devices," Dauden said. The UK's policy shift can affect the decisions of European Union (EU) member states such as Germany and France.

NECや富士通が頑張れなければ米中5G戦争に勝利するのは中国だ 英国もファーウェイ排除に転換

In response, China's Ambassador to the United Kingdom, Liu Xiaoming, said on the same day, "The British government's decision on Huawei is unfortunately wrong. Does the UK provide foreign companies with an open, fair and non-discriminatory business environment? I'm in doubt. "

According to German statistics service company statista, Huawei has the highest number of patent applications for 5G with 3147, and Samsung Electronics has the second highest with 2795. ZTE is in 3rd place with 2561 cases. This is followed by LG (Korea) 2300, Nokia 2149, Ericsson 1494, Qualcomm (US) 1293, and Intel (US) 870.

How hard can Japanese people such as NEC and Fujitsu do?
