[MUSIC PLAYING] SPEAKER 1: China's understood a couple of things that I've seen since I've been living here and working in Huawei for the last 11 years or so. They understand that to move forward, you need to leverage technology. So which technologies? Artificial intelligence, IoT, and specifically through Huawei, 5G, yes? So the Chinese government understands that these technologies are intrinsic to economic growth and industrial development. They understand it. SPEAKER 2: Mm-hmm. SPEAKER 1: And they understand it so much that they incentivize. You know, it's a bit like how did Huawei, how did Alibaba and Tencent and others move forward? Just go and do it, we'll see how it works. So they encourage these things. In the West, we have a regulator, right? And what I see is we have regulation. But in China, I see enablement and innovation. It's very different. So how to make-- you're saying-- others catch up? What would it take? I travel around the world. I've met most of the presidents, prime ministers, ministers, regulators, everybody, all the countries, kings and queens. SPEAKER 2: Wow. SPEAKER 1: And this is my explanation and suggestion to them. Change regulatory policy to enable investment, to enable innovation, and you will transform your economy. That's what's required. Here in China, 45,000 5G sites in one city. SPEAKER 2: Mm-hmm. SPEAKER 1: In one city. By the end of this year, it'll be three or 400,000 sites just within China. The rest of the world will be similar. Most of that is actually in Europe and in the Middle East. Why the Middle East? Because the governments, the administrations, they understand they can't survive on oil forever, and they have real requirements, and they want to transform. SPEAKER 2: Mm-hmm. SPEAKER 1: Minister of Dubai, I was on stage with him in the World Economic Forum in Dubai. If you listen to his vision and what he wants to fix, understanding technology, including things like AI, not forgetting security, not forgetting privacy, but to have mature discussions about privacy and security rather than scaremongering and saying, oh, we can't trust this-- we can't do that. Collaboration is far better than trying to isolate.
