Ren Zhengfei pointed out that universities should focus on the needs of future national and industrial development. How should universities carry out reforms?

Universities should break through their own constraints and do the most basic and cutting-edge scientific research. Recently, Huawei's internal website released a speech. This speech was mainly the content of the discussion at the symposium where the presidents of C9 universities visited Huawei. Ren Zhengfei pointed out at the symposium that universities should no longer be constrained by certain things. Many engineering and application matters should be left to enterprises, while schools should focus on the development of science and technology and the needs of the country in the next 20 to 30 years. The university's research team should not only focus on immediate problems, but should focus on more cutting-edge and more basic science, so as to enhance the country's basic scientific research strength.

In fact, our university research institutions have always been overly focused on immediate problems, especially some engineering problems, resulting in our country's basic innovation lagging far behind Western countries. Ren Zhengfei also pointed out that our scientists should not always think about more advanced equipment and technology, but should think about the future development of the industry and the changes in industry technology decades later, and do the most cutting-edge research instead of just blindly Facing the market, we constantly create products. Scientific researchers should give up the mentality of chasing immediate profits and pursue scientific and technological progress. These studies may not generate profits in the short term, but in the long run they will be beneficial to the development of the country and industry.

Although Huawei's business has been hindered, Huawei has not given up its research on core technologies, especially its investment in HiSilicon Semiconductor. Recently, Huawei President Guo Ping emphasized in a recent meeting that HiSilicon will soon start a recruitment plan for 40 PhD positions. These talents will cover all positions in chip manufacturing, including the weakest chip production links.

Some media suspect that Huawei may also follow the path of Intel and Samsung, achieving continuous development from chip research and development to chip production, but for now, this may be the best way. , although it may take a long time and money, the funds are well spent.
