The Wall Street Journal | Dan Strumpf: Internal communications show how Chinese telecom giant pivoted to counter Washingtons charges with lawsuits, reorganization; the company has entered a state of war
Huawei Technologies Co. founder Ren Zhengfei was preparing to gather his top executives in Argentina in December 2018 to discuss a sweeping reorganization of the Chinese technology giant when he learned his daughter had been detained during a stopover in Vancouver.
Meng Wanzhou, who also serves as the companys chief financial officer, was wanted by the U.S. for allegedly helping Huawei dodge sanctions on Iran. She urged her father to call off his trip.
