On May 23rd, after Lenovo's fourth quarter and annual performance conference of fiscal year 20 18/ 19, I was interviewed by American consumer news and business channel Cable News. When answering a reporter's question about how Lenovo should deal with the current Sino-US trade conflict, I apologize and clarify as follows:
As a company with business all over the world 180 countries and regions, Lenovo has established a mature, independent and continuous innovation supply chain system around the world.
At present, we have 36 manufacturing plants in Asia, Europe, North America and South America, of which 1 1 is Lenovo's own manufacturing base.
Even though individual regional policies may have an impact on us, we can still deal with possible problems by laying out the global industrial chain on the basis of China's intellectual creation.
As we announced at the Lenovo Global Supplier Conference held in Macau today, we will invest more than 2 billion yuan to build a brand-new intelligent manufacturing base in Shenzhen, which is scheduled to be completed within 2-3 years. In the future, Lenovo will continue to increase its investment in smart manufacturing in China, and strive to make greater contributions to the upgrading and transformation of smart manufacturing in China and even the world.
