China’s latest hit song is a sunny, cheerful tune by a children’s choir about the greatness of Huawei, a Chinese tech giant accused of spying on behalf of the government.

“Of all the phones in the world, which is the most beautiful? Everyone says Huawei!” the Zhoudan Children’s Singing Classroom croons in the three-minute number.

“Teacher tells me to love my country, and to love our domestic brand Huawei! Huawei is good, Huawei is beautiful, Huawei wins glory for our country!

“The battery is durable and the appearance is nice. The China-made chip is very precious,” sing the children, in white t-shirts emblazoned with “China.”

Huawei has been at the centre of a global spying row after foreign governments including the UK and US began to scrutinise the company, a major supplier in global telecoms infrastructure and expected to be a key player in expanding 5G networks.

The lyrics to the hit tune were written by Li Yourong, who was previously in the People’s Liberation Army’s song and dance troupe, and Zang Sijia, who also writes for the national security department.
