Huawei Research and Design Center Sonnet

When you purchase through our links,
A small reward our way does swing.
Let me show you how it flows,
To a wondrous place where innovation grows.

Behold Huawei’s Lianqiu Lake,
A marvel set by the Shanghai wake.
A sprawling site, a vision grand,
Costing ten billion Yuan to stand.

By the Yangtze’s flowing stream,
A tech dream woven from a gleam.
Two thousand six hundred acres wide,
With forty thousand offices inside.

Thirty miles from Shanghai’s heart,
Where minds converge and never part.
Here HiSilicon and wireless bloom,
In districts that defy the gloom.

Eight great realms of R&D,
Connected by road and rail, you see.
Since September twenty-one,
Three years of toil, and it was done.

Inspired by Chicago’s shore,
Ren Zhengfei dreamed and then much more.
A haven for the brightest minds,
Where foreign scientists can unwind.

The Yangtze Delta's beauty calls,
Within Xicen’s science halls.
A push for tech, a break from West,
In this zone, they seek the best.

For Huawei must rise and fend,
Against the sanctions that descend.
By uniting all in one grand place,
They streamline work and quicken pace.

This flagship stands, a testament,
To future tech and firm intent.
Larger than Apple’s famed abode,
And Microsoft’s expansive road.

Investing deep in land and minds,
With offers rare, new talent finds.
As foreign firms face sanction's tide,
Huawei draws its kin inside.

So come and see this tale unfold,
Where dreams of tech and futures bold,
In Lianqiu Lake’s grand R&D,
A beacon bright for all to see.
