Chinese state media ridicules fear of Huawei in the West in a sarcastic video.
Xinhua broadcast a parody of a "secret meeting" starring Chinese actors playing MI6 agents.
The Chinese news agency Xinhua published this Tuesday a video with a parody in English to ridicule the policy of the United States and the United Kingdom, which consider and treat Beijing as a security threat. The recording culminates with mockery about fear of Huawei cell phones, accused in the West of leaking user data to the Chinese Government.
The video stars two Chinese actors who play "agent 0.07" called 'James Pond' and another representative of British intelligence. According to the script, they meet in a castle to receive important instructions from their superior and, in the meantime, they start a conversation in which they confirm that China is their "priority", because they need to somehow justify the budget that the Government gives them.
The agents read a dossier stating that the US National Security Agency (NSA) is authorized to "monitor all phone and internet usage in 193 countries" and when they are finally contacted by their superior, they are advised not to. acquire Huawei cell phones, because the Asian giant company's devices contain the "Chinese back door" that allows Beijing to access the data of its interest.
