Personally, If it was ever put to a vote from shareholders, I would vote against a Chinese takeover. Whatever the price. Recent events have shown how dangerous that regime is.
If people were concerned about Huawei's involvement in Britain's 5G network, that would fall into insignificance compared to what will happen once they have control over the worlds natural resources, the western world will literally become their slaves.
The belt and road project is a guise to shore up their supply chain,
They give out a loan to the host country, usually a very poor country with lots of natural resource, once the loan cannot be repaid, they take a long lease on the project ie port or rail line etc as a payment plan, it's already happened with a major port in Sri Lanka. They basically take control of it. In the next 20 years this will become a major problem to the west.
