Huawei has made its first equity investment in a British technology company as the Chinese networking and telecommunications group looks to grow its operations in the UK while facing hostility in other markets around the world.
The Chinese company is among a group of corporate investors that includes Bosch, the German industrial supplier, and Xilinx, an American technology maker, which has taken a "strategic" stake in XMOS, a Bristol-based semiconductor company.
The trio has joined in a $26m funding round in the chip designer. People familiar with the deal said the investment values XMOS at over $100m. The company declined to comment. One person familiar with the Chinese group said it has created a team dedicated to seeking similar investment opportunities with the aim of making two such deals a year in Europe.
Huawei’ s expansion plans have often been met with suspicion around the world. In October 2012, a US congressional report branded Huawei and ZTE, its smaller Chinese peer, a threat to national security.
Huawei has struggled to gain a greater foothold in some countries because of concerns over the military background of its founder, Ren Zhengfei, a former People’ s Liberation Army officer. Authorities in India have voiced concerns while it has been blocked from bidding on some contracts in Germany and Australia. Huawei has always maintained it is independent from the Chinese government.
Britain has provided a warmer welcome. In 2012, David Cameron, prime minister, said that Huawei’s commitment to invest £1.3bn into its operations in the country proved that the UK is "open for business".
Huawei has previously bought two European companies—CIP Technologies in the UK in 2012 and Belgium’s Caliopa in 2013—though financial terms for those deals were not released.
This year, the company said it will invest £ 10m in UK university research and has plans to open a research and development centre in Bristol.
XMOS, a semiconductor designer founded in 2005, has particular expertise in high-performance chips used for products in the "internet of things", such as personal electronics and home appliances which are embedded with sensors able to connect to the internet.
Nigel Toon, XMOS chief executive, said that the new investment would allow it to establish strong ties with companies like Huawei and Bosch, groups that are also likely to be large customers in the future. "This is a massive opportunity to have close contact with these companies and build a big business," said Mr Toon.
Steven Chu, chief strategy officer and vice-president at Huawei’ s silicon division, said: "We have a very high regard for the team at XMOS and will be working closely with diem on a number of exciting new projects."
What are the high-performance chips used for products in the "internet of things" produced by XMOS?
选项
A、Personal electronics with sensors are able to connect to the internet.
B、The refrigerator with sensors are able to connect to the internet.
C、The air-conditioner with sensors is able to connect to the internet.
D、The electro mobile with sensors is able to connect to the internet.
答案
D
解析
细节题。根据题干中的“the high-performance chips”可定位至第九段,根据第九段内容“XMOS….,has particular expertise in high-performance chips used forproducts in the“internet of things”,such as personal electronics and home applianceswhich are embedded with sensors able to connect to the internet.”可知,XMOS生产的用于“物联网”产品的高性能芯片的产品包括有可联网传感器的个人电子产品及家用电器,A项属于有可联网传感器的个人电子产品,B、C项属于有可联网传感器的家用电器。而D项所指的“有可联网传感器的电动车”,不属于其产品范围。
