➀ Huawei and Mediatek are poised to engage in a patent infringement lawsuit over mobile cellular network technologies including 4G and 5G. Huawei, the global leader in communication technology, holds a significant number of core patents in wireless mobile communications with a 20% global share of 5G patents, ranking first. Mediatek is a well-known chip supplier. The dispute originated from a failed licensing agreement, where Huawei aimed to change the traditional 'charging terminal manufacturers' model and start charging component suppliers like Mediatek for patent licensing fees. If successful, this strategy could reshape the technology industry's licensing landscape. The lawsuit has significant implications not only for the commercial interests of the two giants but also for the development of the entire technology industry chain. Huawei's litigation strategy reflects its deep insight and strategic layout for future industry development. The outcome of this patent war between Huawei and Mediatek will determine how it affects the industry landscape and whether it can truly change the licensing model as Huawei wishes.
