By letting your Huawei quotes run with grammatical mistakes and broken English syntax, you place your interviewee in a rather unattractive light and make your source look simple. If you are (I am acknowledging as a possibility) quoting them directly, you then are either doing so because you intend to make Huawei look bad, or you are simply lazily cutting and pasting from another source, such as an email. If there was malice in your patronising use of poorly worded quotes, that would be inexecusable. Either way the end result is not flattering, either for your credentials as journalists, or your subject.
