When:

Short story:

It is announced that British dance duo SAHAND is taking on Chinese telecoms giant Huawei, after discovering that their 2019 underground hit, Hope, had been preloaded onto millions of new mobile phones sold worldwide by Huawei in 2019. Huawei had not contacted the band to seek permission to use the track, no contract was ever issued, and no royalties have been received by the London duo. The first Sahand knew about it was when a friend discovered the song on a Huawei handset he had purchased in London.
