This is something worthy of being happy for ZTE. ZTE has always given the outside world the impression that it is a company that only assembles and does not focus on core components. In fact, this is not exactly the case. Especially this time it was revealed that the development of 10nm and 7nm 5G core chips may be able to get some changes in the perception of the outside world.
Of course, it is not clear what the 5G core chip developed by ZTE is, but from the perspective of "core", ZTE should be said to have made significant progress and breakthroughs. It should not be the core processor of the mobile phone, it is estimated that it is the baseband processor of the mobile phone. But even if it is a 5G mobile phone baseband processor, it is also worthy of joy. As early as 2014, it achieved several other rare 28nm baseband results, and passed the test of the Quality Assurance Department of China Mobile Terminal Company. Since ZTE was exposed by the US ban on parts sales, it has given the outside world the impression that it is a telecommunications assembly company that is admiring people, but it has indeed been misunderstood. ZTE is not only a communications assembly company, but also a basic component development and manufacturing company. For example, ZTE Microelectronics is engaged in the research and development of chip business. As the world's leading provider of integrated communications solutions, it has customers in more than 160 countries and regions around the world, and its strength is not weak (of course, there is still a certain gap with giants such as Huawei, but it is also considered to be in the world's leading queue.) . ZTE's technological strength cannot be underestimated. Ranked 70th among the top 100 global R&D investment companies in 2017, second only to Huawei, Alibaba, and TSMC in the Greater China region. Surpassed MediaTek, Tencent, Hon Hai Precision, etc. In 2017, its R&D investment reached 18.61 Euros, accounting for 13.5% of its net sales revenue. It can be seen that its R&D investment is not low. Especially compared with quite a few domestic enterprises, it is completely the top-level R&D investment.
ZTE has established global R&D institutions in the United States, Canada, Sweden, China and other places, with more than 30,000 domestic and foreign R&D personnel. In addition, its PCT international patent applications have ranked first in the world for three times, and have been named "Top 70 Global Innovative Companies" and "Top 50 Global ICT Companies". The company has more than 69,000 global patent applications and has authorized more than 30,000 patents, ranking among the top three in the world for PCT international patent applications for 8 consecutive years. Many low-end products and parts have also achieved self-sufficiency. Even if ZTE achieves a breakthrough, it still has a long way to go. But while making these breakthroughs, ZTE should also see the gap with industry giants Huawei, Ericsson, and Nokia. In the following comparisons, ZTE basically respects and accompanies the last seat. Revenue in the first half of 2018 (million dollars): Huawei: 49225, Nokia: 12276, Ericsson: 10778, ZTE: 5960. Other indicators, such as year-on-year growth, R&D investment, and net profit, are the last among these companies.
Although there is still a gap between ZTE and the above-mentioned companies, it cannot be denied that ZTE is still a powerful company, and it is also a company that strives to deeply cultivate in the field of science and technology. It's just that each company has different judgments and plans for future development, which leads to some special situations. But fortunately, after experiencing certain things, the understanding may change or become more profound, and the prospects for gaining wisdom from a tragedy are not dim.
