ZTE to expand mobile phone business overseas

BARCELONA, Spain - ZTE Corp, China's second-largest telecom equipment maker, aims to expand sales at its mobile phone business to 100 billion yuan ($16 billion) by 2015, accounting for more than 50 percent of the company's total annual revenue, according to the executive vice-president.
The target underscores ZTE's ambition to grab a bigger share of the global mobile phone market and catch up with international competitors such as Apple Inc and Samsung Electronics Co Ltd.
In 2011, ZTE was the world's fifth-largest mobile phone manufacturer and sold 56.9 million handsets, according to the research company Gartner Inc.
Speaking on the sidelines of the Mobile World Congress on Monday, He Shiyou, executive vice-president of ZTE, said the company's mobile phone business achieved a global revenue growth rate of more than 50 percent in 2011. The US market led the growth with a doubling of both smartphone sales and shipments last year, He said.
The consumer-device business, including handsets, contributed about 33 percent of ZTE's total revenue in 2011, and the figure is likely to climb to more than 40 percent this year, He added.
"The next two to three years are critical for ZTE to catch up (with other leading cell phone makers such as Apple and Samsung)," said He.
Unlike the traditional telecom-equipment industry, which has experienced relatively stable development in recent years, the global mobile-phone industry is changing quickly. "The rapid industry growth will create chances for ZTE to catch up with our rivals, but if we are not on the right track, we will quickly lose the opportunity," He added.
ZTE aims to sell at least 30 million smartphones this year, rising from 12 million in 2011. The company will make greater efforts to develop and launch mid- to high-end smartphones in the near future, as it looks to lift its profit margin by aggressively increasing its sales.
He said ZTE will step up the pace of development and launching of new models - a strategy to help the company closely follow strong rivals. "The rule is that when our competitors launch new smartphones, ZTE will introduce a model in the same rank within the following three months."
ZTE has just joined the quad-core (processors that use four cores) race by launching the ZTE Era at the World Mobile Congress. The 4.3-inch handset runs on the Android 4.0 operating system and has the Nvidia Tegra 3 quad-core processor.
Roberta Cozza, principal research analyst at Gartner, said ZTE and Huawei Technologies Co were the fastest-growing vendors in the fourth quarter of 2011, behind only Apple. "These vendors (ZTE and Huawei) expanded their market reach and kept on improving the user experience of their Android devices," she said.
ZTE's move also reflects its determination to mine rich sources of revenue, and to turn the company into a multibusiness giant in both the telecom and mobile phone markets.
Since 2010, the Chinese makers of telecom gear, Huawei and ZTE, have both actively explored new business fields, including mobile phones and the enterprise-business sector, in the hope of avoiding the negative impact of a stagnant telecom-equipment market.
"The European debt crisis and the economic downturn has affected the telecom-gear industry, especially in the US and European markets. Except for some Chinese telecom-gear companies, most global network equipment manufacturers have seen their business going down," said a research note from the research company Frost & Sullivan Inc.

IBM and Huawei hook up to start Chinese takeaway
Two billion armpits can't be ignored
By Bill Ray
Posted in MWC, 27th February 2012 14:41 GMT
MWC 2012 IBM's enterprise consultancy, IBM Global Business Service, has joined up with Huawei to create enterprise solutions, initially for Chinese companies but with global aspirations.
Huawei wants its smartphones embedded into businesses, and to give those businesses a reason to buy its tablets too. IBM wants to push its Chinese presence and tap into the expediently expanding market, which it hopes to do with Huawei's help, but to Huawei this is just another step on the road to global domination.:thumb:
The jointly developed platform is called "Smart Workspace@Mobile" though at the moment it is little more than slideware and aspirational statements. It will involve Huawei's device management systems, and apply IBM's experience with enterprise resource planning, customer relationship management and supply chain management, to create a combined solution to be pushed heavily into the energy and retail industries.
Both companies reckon enterprises are posed to make greater use of mobile workers and want to be ready to exploit that market in China and beyond. Huawei pins its plans to a projection which sees a 80 per cent of businesses making their staff work on the move by the end of next year.
But this alliance with IBM is also important in painting Huawei as a full-service company, not just a manufacturer of networking kit and Android handsets. There are dozens of high-volume-low-price manufacturers in China and Huawei is desperate not to be lumped in with them. Launching a quad-core Android handset is one part of that – the Ascend D being anything but low-cost – but sitting on stage alongside IBM is equally important. ®

Huawei unveils the world's smallest data card
TT Correspondent | | 28 Feb 2012
Huawei, a leading global information and communications technology (ICT) solutions provider, unveiled the world's smallest data card – the E369 at Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2012.
Measuring a mere 8mm thin, the E369 data card is part of Huawei's thinnest product portfolio, which includes the world's thinnest PC/CE module MU733 and MU739, the world's thinnest mobile hotspot E5331 and the world's thinnest smartphone Ascend P1 S. The E369, created for UMTS 5 module global roaming, boasts a super slim chic design and is available in eight different colors.
"As the leading provider of mobile broadband products, Huawei Device is taking the lead in designing and developing products that excels not only technologically but also aesthecially, bringing consumers a premium user experience. Thin, light and compact products not only look good but has lower battery consumption, extending battery life expectancy," said Wu Shi Min, President, Huawei Device Mobile Broadband Product Line.
The MU733 and MU739, the world's slimmest PC/CE modules, are less than 2mm slim. The MU739 in particular measures only 600mm2, making it the world's smallestPA+ module. Not only are the MU733 and MU739 smaller and thinner than existing modules in the market, they consume less power and dissipate less heat. They can be widely employed in PC/CE electronic equipment, such as laptops, smart phones, tablet PCs, e-books, navigating devices and PDAs.

Huawei lets loose its technological ambition
By Daniel Thomas and Paul Taylor in Barcelona
Huawei may call it a "stand" but the hangar that looms over part of the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona leaves little doubt about the scale of the Chinese telecoms group's ambitions.
Entry is not easy. A stern reminder of no photography is a final warning that here lies Huawei's latest technologies and services that it doesn't want its competitors to see, a far cry from just a few years ago when it was seen as the imitator desperate to copy the more established European and US groups such as Motorola and Ericsson.
Inside, rooms covering two floors teem with potential customers looking at the latest products that Huawei says will make networks more powerful, cheaper, easier to manage and more energy efficient.
To describe the company as just a telecoms equipment maker underplays a business that offers to build an entire ecosystem around an operator, ranging from broadcast masts and data centres to managed services and software, as well as handsets using its own chip set pitched against the highest-specification Android phones made by the likes of Samsung.
Huawei's bunker shows off antennas that follow a phone user for maximum efficiency, instant video facilities for schooling and healthcare, traffic and surveillance systems with facial recognition, data centre designs and services, and miniature small-cell blocks capable of next-generation networks – as well as its latest handsets and tablets.
Both Huawei and ZTE, its Chinese rival, have stepped up their game producing smartphones and Android-based PC tablets that match or in some respects surpass the offerings on display from other manufactures, analysts said. Huawei's Ascend 48 HD smartphone, launched here, is one of the first handsets to feature the latest version of the Android operating system and used a powerful quad core microprocessor – developed in-house.
Huawei introduced two handsets while ZTE launched eight, notes Dimitris Mavrakis of Informa Telecoms & Media. "The Chinese vendors"‰."‰."‰."‰are clearly looking at the device business to grow top-line revenues and the increasingly competitive infrastructure market," he said.
Huawei wants people, not just those businesses that buy equipment, to know its brand. It has appointed BBH, the ad agency, to develop its identity among consumers. This is a first for a company that has long been perceived outside China to be secretive, something that has contributed to problems in trying to increase its business in the US.
It is no wonder, as one industry analyst says, that rival groups in Europe are terrified of the competition coming from China. One senior executive says the quality of Huawei's products has improved markedly in the past few years and it can no longer be written off as a cheap copycat.
This has meant pricing pressure and falling margins for companies such as Nokia Siemens Networks and Alcatel-Lucent, and also a forced change in strategy on less easily replicated managed services and next generation mobile broadband equipment.
Huawei's presence is nearly matched by ZTE, whose name is beaming on to the palace at the top of the Barcelona conference venue in the evenings, and pressed on to every delegate's entry passes, in its own global push.
ZTE has become the fourth-largest handset maker in the world by sales volumes on the back of its cheap but capable phones that are often used for unbranded sales, and the company is as much focused on its equipment business.
Wei Zaisheng, chief financial officer of ZTE, says the company plans to facilitate access to funding for regional partners, such as additional equity from potential investors and debt from banks to help them expand, though ZTE will not take equity stakes. He declined to identify the sources of funds to which ZTE has access, adding that process was at an early stage.
"The new strategy we have is to tailor make a technology solution with a financial package to help [operators] rapidly grow market share in a sustainable way," says Mr Wei. "It doesn't matter if the money comes from Europe, America or China.
"We hope to position ourselves to lead the development of good potential players. When we grow up with strategic partners then we can position ourselves with a bigger market share."
Huawei and ZTE have yet to report 2011 figures but Mr Wei said ZTE had grown at twice the speed of the industry last year. He pointed to analyst estimates of a 33.4 per cent increase in revenue in the first three quarters, although declined to give revenue numbers that were still being audited.
Competition from ZTE and Huawei is only set to intensify. Huawei allocates almost half of its 140,000 staff to research and development. This is key in a sector where revenues are under pressure from a decline in traditional businesses such as voice calls, and new technologies are needed to keep up with the demand for data from mobile customers.
That many of those will be using either ZTE or Huawei handsets is just another piece of the pie for the Chinese groups.
