WHERE DID IT ALL BEGUN?

    Let's start with the beginning, Huawei's root is quite modest. Alike many modern success stories, his founder, Ren, established Huawei at the lowest point of his life. He was expelled from the People’s Liberation Army for which he worked as an engineer, and right after being defrauded of 2 million CNY by a customer while also recovering from a divorce at the age of 41. As you can imagine, nothing remotely positive was taking place in his life. Ren found the determination to start a company with a few of his colleagues, named Huawei. Huawei did not begin manufacturing telecommunication devices. Its only purpose back then was to make money from anything that could be sold. Later, Huawei became the rural sales agent for Hong Kong-based phone and cable network businesses.Later developed R&D and spread it internationally. Got contract with vodafone. developed their first phone in 2009. Everything after that was a high hit graph of satisfied customers and sales.Huawei is known for its branding now.

  2. Huawei’s success began to spread inside China, then abroad, notably in Europe. 
  3. The brand’s top-end phone sell for the same premium price as Apple and Samsung, but its lower-tier model are priced at a significant discount to comparable brands.

Yes, I am talking about the spread of the novel virus COVID-19 or commonly known as "Corona Virus". During these time Apple took some steps to help stop this viral disease to spread even further.
