That is exactly Lenovo's problem. It has no bargain power against its technology suppliers.

I don't expect any company, Huawei included, to develop everything in house. But a great company must have something at its disposal that can help the company to defend against hostilities. It is usually means some essential and critical IPs (technologies, know-hows,etc.) in the sectors that matter the most to the company.

Lenovo has nothing.

Both McDonalds and Starbucks enjoy dominance in their markets. These companies have their own know-hows and even technologies to keep such dominance. Why would a beef supplier or a coffee supplier even think about losing their largest customer?

Imagine that if Lenovo had either the capability to undercut its main competitors to death, or technologies to make competitors's products obsolete, it could have killed Dell and HP after it acquired the ThinkPad brand from IBM, and would have become a great company, too. But this didn't happen.

What did Zakharova say?

I don't read Russian. I can only translate from the Chinese story which itself was apparently a translation of the Russian version.

Roughly, Zakharova compared the 13000+ death toll in Donbass to the lavish life style (shopping and parties) that Borell cared about. She questioned why an EU official would be delighted seeing businesses in EU member countries suffer from the sanctions. She also suggested that Borell probably has no idea how to keep his own social accounts in order and the said tweet must have been written by someone "uneducated" and pushed in Borell's name.

@SanWenYu bro Lenovo is a pseudo American company, let's be clear about it and so is Alibaba and those others Monopolistic Chinese tech company with majority foreign holdings. So Xi was right to support those Tech SME while limiting Chinese Big tech, they're home bred with limited foreign influence.
