House of Huawei

Eva Dou

A small company with big dreams, Huawei grew from a modest Chinese startup to a global tech giant at the center of a global controversy. Behind its rapid rise lies a story of innovation, ambition, and heightened political tension. Admired in China as a national hero and feared abroad as a potential threat, Huawei now finds itself torn between admiration and distrust. This isn't just a story about phones and 5G—it's a powerful exploration of how one company came to symbolize the profound conflict between progress, power, and trust in a connected world.
