Description
Sinophobia: The Huawei Story is a comprehensive examination of the company's rise to global prominence and its struggles to enter the US market. Drawing on over 1,000 reports from various sources, including academia, media, and tech news sites, the book sheds light on the US Congress's actions and the business practices of the Chinese firm over the past 25 years. The book begins with a brief history of Sinophobia in the US, tracing its evolution since Chinese immigrants first arrived in California during the gold rush. It then delves into Huawei's failed attempts to purchase a US business, its struggles to win a contract to upgrade Sprint's telecommunications network, and its battle with the Committee for Foreign Investment in the US. Ultimately, the book offers a nuanced discussion on the value of foreign direct investment for the US and its citizens, and the challenges faced by companies like Huawei in navigating complex regulatory environments.
