Huawei has had its chip arm prepared for the short supply of parts from the US

The escalating bilateral political tension of US-China has affected so much that apart from the ban of Huawei’s products to be used in the US, American chipmakers, including the leading manufacture Qualcomm, are prohibited from exporting technologies to the Chinese telecommunication provider. The Huawei backed chipmaker HiSilicon, nevertheless, is taking over the job in the supply of core components. As being one of the top hi-tech companies which is leading in both design and production ability, despite HiSilicon may compensate for some of the impact incurred by the US’s ban, it’s still far from totally offsetting the US threat entirely—the company still needs American components, IP, and tools to design new chips.
