Chinese companies call for US boycott amid Huawei arrest backlash
CNNHong Kong CNN Business — The detention of a top Huawei executive is prompting some Chinese companies and business groups to call for workers to boycott products from US companies like Apple, prompting fears of a wider backlash. Several organizations across China have issued notices urging staff members to show their support for Huawei, threatening punishment against anyone caught with Apple products or even offering subsidies to buy Chinese smartphones. “The US aims to contain China’s rise … I believe we Chinese people should stand united and support our national products,” the Nanchong Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai said in a statement this week, warning any members who bought Apple products would be “banned.” The crisis began after news emerged that Meng Wanzhou, Huawei’s chief financial officer and the daughter of the company’s founder, was detained in Vancouver on December 1. The US and Chinese officials discussed “implementing the agreements” reached by US President Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping at the G20 in Buenos Aires earlier in December, the statement said. Mitter said the Chinese government would want to avoid any larger boycotts or backlash against the United States or Canada while the trade talks were ongoing because of fears the US government might pull out.
