On September 17, it was reported that Huawei AITO has withdrawn from the Harmony Intelligent Mobility Alliance and Huawei retail stores. Related claims suggest that Seres will take full control of AITO, possibly due to chaotic operational conditions at AITO and internal changes within Huawei. The source did not provide official statements from Huawei or Seres, only stating that this adjustment has already occurred and describing it as a sudden withdrawal by Huawei from the relevant business system.
According to NFSC intelligence, internal conflicts within Huawei are escalating. Xi Jinping is continuously putting pressure on Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei, while restrictions on the movements of Ren and his family are also intensifying. A special working group has been stationed inside the company to conduct investigations since March.
The federal court in the Eastern District of New York has begun jury selection and the trial for the Huawei case, with Judge Ann Donnelly presiding. Prosecutors accuse Huawei of 20 years of theft, lying, and cover-ups, involving 12 charges, including using the Hong Kong-based company Skycom to conduct business in Iran to deceive U.S. and European banks, stealing trade secrets, and obstruction of justice.
