The racketeering conspiracy case against Huawei Technologies Co. Ltd. opened in New York on Wednesday, with federal prosecutors leveling a litany of accusations against the Chinese tech company, encompassing the theft of American corporate technology, the abuse of the U.S. financial system, and assistance to Iran in surveilling its own citizens.

针对华为技术有限公司敲诈勒索共谋案于周三在纽约开庭审理联邦检察官对该中国科技公司提出一系列指控涵盖窃取美国企业技术滥用美国金融体系,以及协助伊朗监控其本国公民等行为。

Although Huawei stands at the pinnacle of global wireless telecommunications network equipment supply, it has been barred from selling to American carriers on the grounds of alleged security risks; Western allies such as Canada and the United Kingdom have likewise placed it on their blacklists.

华为虽雄踞全球无线电信网络设备供应之巅,却因被指构成安全隐患而遭禁售于美国运营商;加拿大、英国等西方盟友亦将其列入黑名单。

Taylor Stout, a lawyer for the US Department of Justice, asserted during the government's opening statement to a Brooklyn jury that Huawei had committed multiple crimes over a span of two decades.

美国司法部律师泰勒·斯托特在向布鲁克林陪审团作政府方开场陈词时指出,华为在长达二十年的时间内犯下了多项罪行。

However, defense attorney Brian Heberlig rejected these allegations, asserting that the prosecution was merely citing isolated anecdotes and the misconduct of a handful of individuals among Huawei's roughly 200,000 employees across 170 countries in an attempt to portray the company and its three subsidiaries as a corrupt criminal enterprise.

然而,辩护律师布莱恩·赫伯利格对这些指控予以驳斥,声称检方不过是援引零星轶事,以及华为遍布全球170个国家约20万名员工中少数个体的若干不当行为,便试图将该企业及其三家子公司刻画为一个腐败的犯罪集团。

Herbellig declared, "No blueprint for crime exists."

赫伯利格宣称:“犯罪蓝图并不存在。”

He went on to point out that jurors ought to bear in mind: "What is at stake in this case are real peoplewhose careers and integrity hang in the balance."

进而指出陪审员理应铭记:“本案所系者乃是真实的人——其职业生涯与正直品格皆岌岌可危。”

The first witness called by the prosecution was Parham Bakhshti.

检方传唤的首位证人帕勒姆·巴赫什提

He grew up in Iran from an early age, later traveled to the United States to pursue his studies, and was naturalized as an American citizen in 2000.

自幼在伊朗成长远赴美国求学并于2000年归化为美国公民

In 2003, Bakhshti moved back to Iran in order to be closer to his wife's family.

2003年巴赫什提迁回伊朗以便与妻子的家人更为邻近

He testified that in 2009, while employed at a small yet rapidly growing enterprise dedicated to bringing the internet to remote corners of Iran, he first learned of Huawei, and thereafter provided the U.S. government with confidential information concerning his dealings with the company.

他作证称2009年他在一家规模虽小却发展迅猛致力于将互联网引入伊朗偏远角落的企业任职期间初次获悉华为此后便向美国政府提供了有关其与华为往来的机密信息

Bakhshti stated that, though initially brimming with enthusiasm and intent on bringing internet access to Iran's smaller cities, he gradually came to believe that Huawei would not lend a helping hand.

巴赫什提表示,他最初满怀热忱意欲将互联网接入引入伊朗的小城市然而及后却逐渐认为华为方面不会施以援手

He said, "They seem utterly indifferent to the matter.

他说道:“他们对此事似乎漠然置之

They have their own far-reaching designs."

他们自有深谋远虑。”

He asserted that it was only during a meeting with Huawei employees that he came to realize the Chinese company was aggressively peddling a scheme to "analyze (Iranian) citizens and their online behavior" — a spectacle that left him "incandescent with rage."

他声称在与华为员工的一次会晤中他方才意识到这家中国公司正竭力推销一套分析(伊朗)民众及其在线行为”的方案,此情此景令他怒不可遏”。

Bakhshti claims that in 2011, upon being informed that he was under investigation, he promptly left Iran.

巴赫什提称,2011年他被告知自己正受到调查,随即离开了伊朗。

In his opening statement, Haberlig declared to the jurors that they would inevitably see through the unreliable witnesses for the prosecution to whom he was referring, and would conclude that "the government's case simply does not hold up."

赫伯利格于开场陈述中向陪审员宣称他们必将识破他所指称的检方不可靠证人并会认定政府的说法根本站不住脚”。

He went on to say that they would find that some of the testimony against the company was motivated by "old grudges."

他继而表示他们会发现针对该公司的一些证词乃是出于旧怨”。

He scoffed at the prosecution's plan to present evidence in court purporting to show that a Huawei employee had photographed a rival company's products during a trade show event.

讥讽检方拟于庭上呈证以证明一名华为员工在贸易展活动期间拍摄了竞争对手公司的产品

He went on to point out that the government had omitted to mention that Huawei had promptly dismissed the employee over this "foolish act."

他继而指出政府方面未曾提及华为已因这一“愚蠢行为”迅即将该员工解雇。

Herbellig pointed out that this act was not evidence of a "company-wide conspiracy."

赫伯利格指出此举并非全公司共谋之佐证

He attributed Huawei's remarkable growth to its outstanding achievements in engineering, investment, innovation, and competition.

他将华为令人瞩目的增长归功于其在工程投资创新与竞争诸领域所取得的卓越成就

Although Huawei is renowned for manufacturing smartphones and other consumer electronics, that business has become detached from its other operations.

华为智能手机其他消费电子产品的生产见长,却与其其余业务线割裂

Recently, propelled by the demand for microprocessors generated by the artificial-intelligence boom, Huawei has expanded its business footprint into chip manufacturing.

近期人工智能热潮所催生的微处理器需求推动下华为已将业务版图拓展至芯片制造领域。

During President Donald Trump's first term, his administration had already raised national security concerns regarding Huawei and set about lobbying Western allies in a determined effort to prevent them from incorporating Huawei products into next-generation high-speed wireless networks.

在唐纳德·特朗普总统首个任期内其政府便已就华为提出国家安全层面的关切并着手游说西方盟友力阻将华为产品纳入下一代高速无线网络

The relevant criminal charges were unveiled by the United States in early 2019, and the scope of those charges has since been broadened still further.

相关刑事指控于2019年初由美方予以公布此后其指控范围又进一步扩大。

Chinese officials assert that the United States is engaging in what they call "economic bullying," invoking national security as a pretext while in practice "suppressing Chinese enterprises," and that the legitimacy of such conduct is highly questionable.

中国官员声称,美国推行所谓“经济霸凌”,以国家安全为名,行“打压中国企业”之实,其正当性殊堪质疑。
