Foreign media: Huawei’s “confidence” comes from Ren Zhengfei !
A company can develop high-end chips by itself and release them on its own mobile phone brands. Except for Samsung and Apple , only Huawei can do this. Other mobile phone brands need to rely on third-party manufacturers. chip.
After the birth of Huawei's 5nm chip, in the competition of chips of the same level, Kirin chip is no weaker than Qualcomm Snapdragon chip, and even has the strength to compete with Apple's A series chips. However, all visions are in It was shattered under the relevant restrictions of the United States.
But Huawei has not been discouraged. It has been thinking of ways to solve the chip supply problem, and has started to lay out the entire chip industry chain. It has increased investment in the semiconductor field, achieved technological independence as much as possible, and has well united domestic outstanding talents. Semiconductor companies work together to overcome chip problems.
After three years of hard work, the market share of domestic chips is getting higher and higher, but there is still a serious problem that has not been solved. As the only lithography machine manufacturer in the world, the supply problem of ASML is still a major hidden danger. .
Relevant restrictions have slowed down in the first quarter. ASML has also provided the maximum production capacity as much as possible, shipping a total of 23 DUV lithography machines to the domestic market. However, now there is news that the United States has upgraded restrictions and banned exports. The scope will extend from EUV to DUV level. Although ASML has not made a statement at present, the final decision does not lie with it.
Ren Zhengfei has long been prepared.
Once international companies are unable to realize the de-beautification of technology, they are destined to become "chess pieces" of relevant restrictions in the United States. TSMC, ASML, Samsung and other companies are examples. Faced with the pressing targets, Ren Zhengfei has already made preparations for these measures.
The old United States initiated relevant restrictions with the purpose of making Huawei "fall", and Ren Zhengfei immediately expressed his position: "Huawei wants to penetrate the sky upwards and take root downwards to the roots!" This seems to have a certain meaning. Nowadays, It seems that Huawei has fulfilled its promise.
After the supply of Qualcomm chips was cut off, Kirin chips turned positive overnight, and in terms of related performance, they were even better than Snapdragon chips. After the supply of Google 's GMS service was cut off, HMS services quickly replaced it. on, and the self-developed Hongmeng OS was also officially launched after Android stopped providing update services.
This also proves the error of activating relevant restrictions. Not only did it not achieve the corresponding effect, it also accelerated Huawei's research and development progress. Huawei has survived in the cruel competitive environment, and it is still living very beautifully. .
Ren Zhengfei takes the greatest credit for achieving all this. He invests no less than 20% of total revenue in research and development every year, creating a good scientific research atmosphere. At the same time, he spares no effort to recruit top talents at home and abroad, and integrates domestic research institutes and Enterprises are "twisted into a rope", and the power of unity is exactly what we need now.
For this reason, foreign media bluntly stated: "Huawei's "confidence" comes from Ren Zhengfei!"
After being completely cut off by the United States, Huawei quickly conducted a self-examination, banned all replaceable American technologies, and no longer It held no hope and launched technological breakthroughs in the chip field at full speed.
As the "soul figure", Ren Zhengfei also pointed out the future direction very well. After HiSilicon lost profitability, he did not give up continuing to invest in it, but upgraded it to a first-level department and increased its investment. The investment intensity has increased, and HiSilicon has continued to break through new technologies, and it does not disappoint!
Ren Zhengfei also stated: "The annual investment in R&D funds will not be less than 20% of the total annual revenue!" This also gives Huawei employees the greatest "confidence". They don't have to worry about the interruption of the capital chain, which is more conducive to advanced technology. The birth of.
In addition to the chip supply problem, Huawei's problems have basically been solved. While following the old path of the international industrial chain to develop technology, Huawei has been promoting the development of new technologies, and chip stacking technology and optoelectronic chips are very likely to become main directions for the future.
At present, Huawei’s purpose is also very clear. The main direction in the future is to use area for performance and use stacking technology to restore the supply of high-performance chips. It has also made major breakthroughs in the field of optoelectronic chips, which has been proven to be able to bypass all Hanmi products. technology.
In addition to chips, Huawei's greatest achievement lies in the system. The successive births of Hongmeng system and Euler system have given us hope for domestic systems. In order to reduce the possibility of subsequent restrictions, Huawei has currently been in many "roots" "A technological breakthrough has been achieved.
At present, Huawei has its own self-developed DaVinci architecture, and also uses the open source architecture RISC-V to realize the research and development of multiple chips. In the second half of the year, Huawei will also launch its own Cangjie programming language, which will further promote the complete autonomy of the system. change.
Hongmeng system has been questioned before as a "shell Android" because it uses the same underlying code. After the birth of its own programming language, Huawei will completely say "goodbye" to Android, and all these doubts will come to light. Come.
solves the dilemma of "lack of core and lack of soul", Huawei will be able to completely let go, and relevant restrictions will not hinder its development. What do you think of this?
