>The next day, at a breakfast meeting at a Copenhagen hotel, TDC’s chief executive officer, Allison Kirkby, delivered the news to Lan and some senior Huawei managers from Europe and Asia. Lan grew emotional and said he and others at Huawei would suffer great consequences if TDC didn’t change itsmind. Some of his colleagues had a more menacing response. According to a statement Aalose gave to his security team, there was “a threat about how the wrong decision would affect other Danish companies in their future cooperation with China.”
Fuck Kina.
Måske en af de bedste beslutninger vi har taget længe i Danmark var ikke at takke ja til Huawei.
Morsom artikkel, den oppsummerer egentlig godt både kinesisk og skandinavisk kultur – og har til og med en god, gammeldags honeypot!

>It soon became evident that Lan’s efforts to cultivate friends among TDC’s upper ranks had been successful. One executive had taken several trips to China to meet with Huawei management and used a Huawei phone given to him by the company. The executive talked and dined frequently with Lan. He’d also been introduced to an attractive young female Huawei employee. The two had met on one of the TDC executive’s China trips, after which she was transferred to Copenhagen as a marketing assistant. That prompted concerns that the two were in a relationship, though the security team didn’t find evidence of one.

Det er jo ren spion-historie det her
