Chinese telecommunications equipment vendor Huawei Technologies has seen its revenue for the first quarter of 2021 fall by 16.5% year-on-year to 152.2 billion yuan (A$30.5 billion), which the company said was as per its forecast.
In a statement, Huawei, a private company headquartered in Shenzhen, said revenue from its consumer business fell, partly due to
the sale of its budget smartphone unit Honor in November last year.
However, the company said its net profit margin, based on unaudited figures, had risen by 3.8 percentage points year-on-year to 11.1%.
This was put down to efforts to improve operations and efficiency. Patent royalties brought in US$600 million (A$770 million).

Do you have trouble throwing out old maps? We do! We keep maps from vacations, old atlases, and road maps. So over the years we have accumulated lots of maps and I have come up with several uses for old maps.

Map
window shade – We found an old instructional map in the alley behind a church. It is titled, “Palestine during the Time of the Judges” and shows a map of the Middle East. This large roller map was in a bit of disrepair but it is still really beautiful and interesting. Roller maps do not hang well on walls unless they are framed or glued down because the edges curl. Mounting them into roller shade hardware is just as easy as hanging a regular window shade. The edges don’t curl too much because the map spends much of its time rolled up.
Cats are very beautiful to look at; their poses are so elegant it looks as if they were the subjects of great masters paintings. One cat in Russia takes this to another level by actually being a subject of many famous paintings done by the greatest artists of all time. The beautiful, plump, ginger tabby with an awesome name, Zarathustra, sneaks comfortably into paintings and fits right in. If I fits, I sits or lays, in whatever the artist portrays, said he.
Zarathustra s partner, a human named Svetlana Petrova, masterfully Photoshops him in into countless iconic paintings, ranging from the well-known works of Vincent van Gogh, Leonardo da Vinci, Rembrandt, J. Vermeer, Frida Kahlo, Diego Velazquez, and many others who have painted their way into art history. Zarathustra has become quite famous for his appearances in these famous works, and has had an exhibition in the UK. His photos were also shared by some museums on the internet.
