As usual, Ren was not interviewed by any media. Different from the past, his appearance this time was unexpected to the media. At the meeting, cheerful Ren personally introduced the relevant situation to john thompson, the partner, chairman and CEO of Symantec.
In the eyes of the industry, Chengdu became the headquarters of the joint venture company, which surprised many people. After all, Huawei is an enterprise headquartered in Shenzhen, while Symantec's center in China is in Beijing and Huawei's global R&D center is in Hangzhou. The two IT giants chose to marry in Chengdu, which attracted people's attention.
According to the arrangement, Huawei owns 5 1% of the joint venture company, and Symantec owns 49%. Ren Zheng Fei is the CEO of the new company, and john thompson is the chairman. Huawei will inject its storage and network security services in the telecommunications field and more than 750 high-quality talents; Symantec will inject some enterprise storage and security software components into the joint venture company, and will inject $654.38+0.5 billion into the new company.
The scale will reach thousands of people.
"In the next few years, the company may reach thousands." Deng Biao, chief operating officer of Huawei Symantec Technology Co., Ltd, told reporters yesterday. He is also from Huawei. He believes that Huawei Symantec Technology Co., Ltd. will develop into a global network security storage center.
On the same day, the new enterprise held a board meeting. In Ren's words, at this board meeting, the directors quickly reached an agreement on "many major issues", which he thought was a good sign. "In 3-4 years, this company is very promising."
But there is no doubt that Huasai is a novice. In this field, traditional giants include multinational companies such as EMC and IBM. However, people who are optimistic about this cooperation believe that Huawei is a master in the hardware field and Symantec is the first in the security software field. The two companies have joined hands, and Huawei's "teacher of tigers and wolves" has a great chance of winning.
In 2006, the global storage market reached 40 billion dollars, and by 20 10, the global storage market demand will reach 988 billion GB (note that GB is the storage unit), but the storage capacity is only 610 billion GB.
