Now Huawei has got third place at the mobile market, just following Apple and Samsung. After seeing more of its smartphones were sold last year, Huawei appears to be more confident in its bigger goals.

“We hope that in three years our market share can be the top two and in five years our market share can be the top one, ” Richard Yu, CEO of Huawei’s Consumer(消费者) Business Group, said in a recent TV interview.

The company sold 108 million smartphones in 2015, compared with 2014, the number increased by 44 percent, though it was much smaller than Apple’s 231. 5 million iPhones and Samsung’s 317. 2 million smartphones.

“The number of our smartphones is still growing, ” Yu said, “and our company is expecting an increase of 30% in smartphone shipments(出货量). It’ll be a great success.”
