【导读】华为还须进一步提高企业透明度

犹抱琵琶半遮面

The Chinese company sells ever more smartphones and opens up,a little

华为进一步扩大智能手机销量并略微提高企业透明度

Feb2nd2013|SHANGHAI|From the print edition

A REPORT that Huawei sold more smartphones in the last quarter of2012than either Nokia,HTC or RIM(the company that has just renamed itself BlackBerry)raised eyebrows last week.But less widely reported news about the Chinese company,best known for its telecoms-networking gear,may prove more important.

上周有报道称，2012年第四季度诺基亚、HTC、RIM三家公司的智能手机销量都落在了华为后面（其中RIM刚刚更名为黑莓公司）。此言一出，各方大跌眼镜。华为这家中国公司以其通信设备最为知名。与智能手机销量相比，华为或许还有一些更为重要的消息并未得到媒体的广泛报道。

“We will honour our commitment to transparency and openness,”declared Cathy Meng, the firm’s chief financial officer,at a press conference.Huawei is privately held,so has no obligation to disclose its finances.But its efforts to expand have led to grumbles in Europe about subsidies and a backlash in America against its opacity.A congressional committee claimed last October,on flimsy evidence,that its lack of transparency and ties to the Chinese army make it a security threat to America.

华为首席财务官孟晚舟在一次新闻发布会上宣称：“华为会坚持开放透明的承诺”。华为是私人控股公司，没有披露财务状况的义务。但该公司在努力扩大规模——这让欧洲方面有所怨言，称其存在不正常补贴；而美国也指责华为“不透明”。去年十月，美国国会委员会凭借一些站不住脚的证据，称华为透明度低而且与中国军方有联系，因此已经对美国的国家安全构成了威胁。

On the contrary,says John Suffolk,Huawei’s cyber-security tsar who used to be chief information officer for Britain’s government:his firm is itself the target of“tens of thousands of cyber attacks a week”.And Eric Anderson,of America’s National Intelligence University,concludes in a new book,“Sinophobia:The Huawei Story”,that the firm is a victim of China-bashing.

另一方面，华为网络安全官、曾任英国政府首席信息官的约翰?萨福克称，恰恰是该公司自身“每周会遭到成千上万次网络攻击”。而美国国家情报大学的艾瑞克?安德森在新书《惧华：华为的故事》里写道，这家公司是外界抨击中国的受害者。

Ms Meng’s promise of openness is important because she is not just the company’s chief financial officer.Her father is Ren Zhengfei,its secretive founder.She said revenues rose to 220billion yuan($35billion)in2012,an8%rise,while profits surged by a third.Fine,but did not Huawei say in early2012that it expected revenues to rise by15-20%?No clear answers are offered.It seems the firm’s push into the market for company networks has got bogged down.

孟晚舟做出了提高公开性的承诺，这很重要——因为她不仅是华为的首席财务官，也是低调内敛的公司创始人任正非的女儿。孟晚舟称，华为的营收在2012年增长到了2200亿元人民币（约合350亿美元），比上年提高了8个百分点；而公司利润激增了三分之一。这个业绩不错，但华为在2012年早些时候不是宣称公司营收预期会有15到20个百分点的增长吗？对此，孟晚舟并未做出明确回应。华为试图挺进公司网络市场，但这方面的努力似乎没有获得多少进展。

Ms Meng also gave a few details about the company’s odd ownership structure.Mr Ren holds a mere1.4%stake,she claimed,and most of the rest is held by the firm’s employees. But will employees be allowed to trade those shares freely?The firm is ostensibly run by several co-chief executives,but can they overrule Mr Ren?How exactly was the firm’s original board of directors chosen?

孟晚舟也针对华为古怪的所有权结构披露了一些具体情况。她声称任正非所持股份只有1.4%，而其他大部分股份都由 …… 此处隐藏：21798字，全部文档内容请下载后查看。喜欢就下载吧 ……
