Huawei asks for full use of Qualcomm 's "castrated version" chip, not only can not use the 5G network, but also suffered a certain reduction in performance. At present, the sales of Huawei's new phones are very bleak due to the chip. In many people's eyes, the mobile phone business is a hot potato for Huawei, and further operations will only make Huawei fall into the quagmire.
However, Huawei has absolutely no intention of giving up. Xu Zhijun : Huawei will not sell its mobile phone business, let alone give up. Even if Huawei is currently in trouble, we still have the confidence to rebirth the mobile phone business.
HiSilicon did not become an abandoned child
Almost most people think HiSilicon will be abandoned by Huawei, because TSMC can only cut off the basic chip design of HiSilicon Staying on the drawing, even a sample core for testing performance cannot be produced.
This means that HiSilicon not only cannot bring profit to Huawei in a short period of time, but also requires a large amount of funding to maintain HiSilicon’s research. People can’t help asking whether such HiSilicon still has significance for Huawei?
However, Huawei has made a decent move for everyone. Not only did not reduce the number of HiSilicon researchers, it even expanded the recruitment of talents globally, and stipulated that only Chinese talents are required.
In addition, Huawei did not reduce HiSilicon’s research funding, but instead increased its investment in HiSilicon’s research funding.
Huawei knows that the more difficult to operate the project, the more painful it is. If you blindly avoid it,Huawei will always succumb to the oppression of the United States. Only by confronting it and overcoming it can it be truly reborn.
So as early as last year, he planned to build a chip factory for HiSilicon, which was not only used for a new round of chip design and development work, but also HiSilicon will form its own chip manufacturing team to formally take chip manufacturing as Own research project. And set a goal that HiSilicon will let Huawei own its own chips within five years.
It can be seen that Huawei does not regard HiSilicon as a "oil bottle". On the contrary, Huawei regards HiSilicon as its hope to return to the top, and it can only truly control every aspect of chip manufacturing in its own hands. Huawei can completely get rid of the sanctions imposed by the United States.
Ren Zhengfei said that Hisilicon now seems to be crossing Mount Everest. Although it is difficult, it will not stop. The people on the mountain can't cultivate, and the people at the bottom of the mountain are responsible for the cultivation, for the people on the mountain. Supply food.
Now Huawei is tilting all resources to HiSilicon. Although HiSilicon can’t bring much benefit to Huawei in the calculation time, is like a beacon, bringing a glimmer of light to Huawei in the dark. , It also brings hope.
Lao Mei’s sanctions are weakening
Except for the mobile phone business, Huawei’s other businesses will basically not be affected by Lao Mei’s chip blockade. For example, the self-driving cars that China has recently entered the game have not been affected by the United States in the slightest.
Although self-driving cars are an industry that has a very large demand for chips, Huawei does not participate in the car manufacturing process in the field of self-driving. It mainly provides technical support for self-driving. The manufacturing of cars is generally handed over to professional car manufacturers. Finish.
Secondly, even if the old beauty is trying to get rid of the law, block the supply of chips for Huawei’s self-driving cars,Huawei still need not panic. Because the chips used in autonomous driving and mobile phone chips are different in technology. The chip precision used by mobile phones is generally above 7nm, which can ensure that the mobile phone has sufficient performance. However, autonomous vehicles do not have such high requirements for chip accuracy, generally as long as 28nm is sufficient.
While domestic 28nm chips have already been mass-produced, Huawei does not have to worry that chips will fall into the state of supply chain breakage due to the blockade of the United States, even if foreign chip manufacturers stop supplying, relying on domestic chip manufacturing The manufacturer's production capacity is also sufficient to meet Huawei's chip demand.
In addition, Chinese companies have announced that they will achieve mass production of 28nm lithography machines by the end of this year. This means that my country will achieve self-sufficiency of 28nm chips next year, and many domestic supply chains will do so because of the self-sufficiency of 28nm chips. To truly be completely in our own hands.
Summary
Huawei’s current steps are very difficult, but everything is moving in a good direction. Huawei has never been afraid of hardships along the way. I believe that this time Huawei will definitely be able to withstand the pressure and move forward.
Unlike before, Huawei is no longer fighting alone. There are countless people behind it to support him. In addition, more and more domestic companies are now investing in this technological war, so Huawei can fight with everyone in the future. Work together to break through the technological blockade of Laos and the United States.
We have reason to believe that the difficulties are only temporary. As long as we make unremitting efforts and a bright road awaits us in the future, one day we will stand on the top of the world's technology again.
