The Shenzhen-predicated company, for which three executives share CEO obligations in six-month rotation, had verbally expressed last year that it will achieve sustainable magnification in 2014. It had additionally targeted revenue of $70 billion by 2018, or annual magnification of about 10 percent a year.
