Huawei cloned Qwen and DeepSeek models, claimed as own

Yes. In fact, this report should be written in the context of other farewell letters to employers that have been published recently in China. There has recently been one, by a 15-year Alibaba veteran, who decried the decline of the company culture as a cause of its now lacking competitiveness and inability to launch new products.

The issues in this report are really about: 1. Lies about Huawei's capabilities to the country (important national issue) 2. Lies to customers who paid to use Huawei models 3. A rigid, KPI-focused and unthinking organization where dishonest gaming of the performance review system not only works but seems to be the whole point and is tacitly approved (this and the reporters idealism and loss of faith is the main point of the report as I see it)

I think the reporter's motivations would've come across more clearly if you had posted a paragraph-by-paragraph translation instead of the current abridged version. (I assume Dilemma Works is your Substack.) Lots of details that add color to the story got lost.
