Question 1: Is H3C a state-owned brand that is being acquired and controlled by a Chinese company?

In the end, it will be considered a joint venture.

In the past, it was considered a foreign company based on capital.

According to the research, development and production of the tours, they are all in China, so the nondescript status is very embarrassing.

Question 2: What is the difference between Huawei and H3C?

H3C is Hangzhou H3C Communications Technology Co., Ltd., also often called H3C.

The predecessor of H3C is Huawei 3 (Huawei Sankang) Company, which is a joint venture between Huawei and 3 Company in the United States.

The birth of Huawei 3 Company is also related to a lawsuit between Huawei and Cisco in the United States in 2003. After the IT bubble burst in 2001, Huawei began to vigorously expand overseas markets such as entering the U.S. market in order to survive. Because Cisco was in the field of data communications at that time.

Absolute leadership position, so many manufacturers that later entered the market also imitated Cisco's products. From the model establishment; the configuration of the interface; the keywords and syntax of the command line are all consistent with Cisco.

Huawei's data communication products are no exception.

This gave Cisco a good excuse: On January 23, 2003, Cisco formally sued China's Huawei and Huawei's US branch, demanding that they stop infringing on Cisco's intellectual property rights.

Faced with the aggressiveness of Cisco, Huawei did not choose to withdraw from the international market, but actively responded. In March 2003, Huawei and 3 Company, which had entered a period of decline at the time, announced the establishment of a joint venture (for a period of three years): Huawei 3 Company, CEO of 3 Company

I made a special trip to testify for Huawei that Huawei did not infringe on Cisco’s intellectual property rights.

H. When Huawei 3 was first established, 3 Company invested US$165 million, accounting for 49% of the company's shares. Huawei invested relevant technologies and personnel (the current employees in H3C before job number 1200 are all old Huawei employees) accounting for 51% of the company's shares.

In 2005, 3 invested US$28 million to purchase 2% of the shares from Huawei, thus becoming the majority shareholder of Huawei 3 with 51% of the shares.

In November 2006, Huawei sold its 49% stake in Huawei 3 to Huawei 3 for US$880 million.

At this point, Huawei 3 has become a wholly-owned subsidiary of 3, and Huawei 3 has been renamed H3C.

In early 2007, private equity fund Bain Investment invested US$2.2 billion in cash to acquire 3. Huawei invested US$363 million through its wholly-owned subsidiary in Hong Kong in an attempt to obtain 16.5% of 3's equity.

On February 22, 2008, due to obstruction by the U.S. Congress (on the grounds that 3 possessed an important network security technology of the U.S. Department of Defense), Huawei announced that it had withdrawn its application to participate in the acquisition of 3.

The current data communications market is mainly divided into the telecom operator market and the enterprise network market. Huawei has been focusing on the operator market, while H3C mainly focuses on the enterprise network market.

Cisco's business spans the carrier and enterprise network markets, and it maintains a certain leading position in these two markets. Huawei is Cisco's main opponent in the carrier market.

H3C is Cisco's main rival in the enterprise network market. Cisco has advantages in industries such as energy, high-end finance, multinational enterprises, and electric power.

H3C has advantages in drug, tobacco, transportation, small and medium-sized enterprises and related drug procurement.

In the field of routers and switches in China, H3C's comprehensive market share accounts for about 36.5%.

In the field of switches, H3C's market share ranks first. Before being fully acquired by 3C, H3C maintained close relationships with Huawei, 3C, and NEC. The switches and routers sold in China are all branded with Huawei. In Europe and the United States, H3C has a close relationship with Huawei.

The market is labeled with the 3 brand, and in Japan it is labeled with the NEC brand.

Therefore, the low-end and mid-range routers and switches branded by Huawei seen on the market are actually produced by H3C.

Due to brand switching, there is also a phenomenon where the same product has a Huawei-branded model and an H3C-branded model. For example, Huawei's s3900 series in switches is H3C's s3600 series, and the original Huawei 6500 series has become H3C's 7500 series.

series, the original Huawei's 8500 series has become H3C's 9500 series, etc.

Due to H3C's high domestic presence, H3C has also established a training and certification system similar to cisco, such as HCNE (Huawei Certified Network Engineer) corresponding to CCNA, HCSE corresponding to H3CSE, and H3CIE corresponding to CCIE.

Due to the brand switching, the names of these certifications have also changed. For example, the original HCNE was renamed to the current H3CNE, etc.

Although the name has changed, the entire certification system is still the same team, using Huawei products... >> Question 3: The problem between Huawei and the current H3C!!! H3C: H3C was originally a joint venture between Huawei and 3

company. Later, Huawei sold its shares in H3C to you, 3, and H3C became a wholly-owned subsidiary of 3. Later, HP acquired 3, and H3C was also acquired by HP, so H3C was also acquired by HP.

Three is now a wholly owned subsidiary of HP.

After Huawei sold H3C, it established its own enterprise business department to produce enterprise equipment such as routers and switches.

The enterprise business unit is now one of Huawei's three main businesses.

In other words, H3C is now a competitor with Huawei.
