Huawei > Apple

Hundreds of companies are participating in this because of the arrest of Huawei’s CFO in Canada. The support isn’t limited to the technology industry. Companies from a wide range of industries, even the food industry, are offering incentives to customers who support Huawei.image of huawei phone

For example, a brewer in Henan Province is offering a free alcohol equivalent to 30% of the price of a Huawei device to employees and customers who show a receipt. But it goes beyond “asking” and encouraging.
