A leaked memo, apparently written by a senior National Security Council official, revealed as far back as the start of this year exactly how worried the US is about Huawei.
一份被泄露的备忘录——显然是由美国国家安全委员会(National Security Council)一名高级官员撰写——显示出,早在今年初美国就对华为(Huawei)多么忌惮。
The rise of the Chinese company to become the world’s biggest supplier of telecoms equipment has given China a huge boost over the US in the race to introduce and develop 5G, the next generation of mobile communications, the memo complained.
这份备忘录抱怨称,华为崛起并成为全球最大电信设备供应商,在与美国围绕推出和开发5G的竞赛中,给了中国巨大的优势。5G是下一代移动通信技术。
“We are losing,” it said. “Whoever leads in technology and market share for 5G deployment will have a tremendous advantage towards [ . . .] commanding the heights of the information domain.”
“我们正在输掉这场竞赛,”该备忘录说,“谁在5G部署的技术和市场份额方面领先,谁就会在……控制信息领域至高点方面占据巨大优势。”
