Chapter 61 "Left is not right" golden partner

Many outsiders believe that Ren Zhengfei and Sun Yafang are Huawei's "golden partners". Sun Yafang is currently the legal representative and chairman of Huawei. She graduated from Chengdu University of Electronic Science and Technology. The marketing and human resources department in charge of her has contributed the most to Huawei.Sun Yafang behaves gracefully, speaks softly, emphasizes balance, and is good at communication. In 1999, when Ren Zhengfei announced Sun Yafang as chairman, he said that Sun Yafang's greatest achievement was the establishment of Huawei's marketing system.

Within Huawei, Sun Yafang's prestige is extremely high.Ren Zhengfei is very strict with his subordinates, but he respects Sun Yafang very much and highly respects her views."Exploring the Rise of Israel" written by Sun Yafang was also appointed as one of the tutoring reports for the "Huawei Basic Law".Ren Zhengfei's articles such as "Don't turn the tide on fallen heroes" and "Small victory depends on wisdom, great victory lies in virtue" were quoted many times in Ren Zhengfei's important speeches, and the latter was also engraved as a stone tablet and erected at Huawei's headquarters.

Sun Yafang's position in the company is second only to Ren Zhengfei.Although there are several other executive vice presidents in the company, everyone respectfully addresses Sun Yafang as "Mr. Sun".Sometimes in public, Ren Zhengfei also referred to her as Mr. Sun; as for the appointment of some personnel and the signing of documents, as long as Sun Yafang has read them, they can basically pass. Having worked together for 16 years, Ren Zhengfei and Sun Yafang have always had a good reputation in the industry for their long-term tacit cooperation.Sun Yafang has been the chairman of Huawei for 12 years and was once regarded as Ren Zhengfei's most powerful successor.In the "Most Powerful Women" annual list released by Forbes magazine on October 6, 2010, the only Chinese woman on the list was Sun Yafang.

Huawei insiders said that Sun Yafang may be the least powerful person in Huawei.Unlike other veterans in Huawei's decision-making EMT, she has not really been in charge of any key departments, nor does she have her own "confidantes".As long as Ren Zhengfei empties her, everything is easy to talk about, and there is no need to spend huge sums of money to send her away. In essence, Sun Yafang spent most of her time at Huawei in charge of human resources and marketing. Huawei's crucial market organization system was established under the leadership of Sun Yafang.At the beginning, Ren Zhengfei suggested that Sun Yafang should be the chairman of the board, responsible for external coordination, while he should be the president and concentrate on internal management.Sun Yafang's status and contribution in Huawei can be described as huge, but the "successor door" rumors did not affect the relationship between Ren Zhengfei and Sun Yafang.
