Huawei said that high-end chips are decreasing. Will mate series become out of print?

Recently, Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei's consumer business, said in a speech that TSMC, the foundry in Taiwan Province Province, China, can no longer supply due to US sanctions and bans on Huawei, and the high-end chips of Huawei Kirin can't be manufactured after September 15, and will be out of print. In addition, he also said that due to US sanctions, the number of Huawei smartphones has dropped a lot. Without U.S. sanctions, Huawei's mobile phones might have occupied the first place in the market last year. However, due to the lack of Kirin chips, the number of Huawei smartphones may be less than last year.

China's Kirin chip is gone, and Huawei's mobile phones may not use Kirin chips in the future!

The US sanctions against Huawei are increasing, and Huawei has been struggling to resist. According to relevant personnel, in order to solve the US sanctions and repression against Huawei, Huawei recently started a new project-Nanniwan Project, aiming at avoiding the use of American technology and accelerating Huawei's development. De-Americanization? .

But even without the trump card of Kirin chip, even without the halo blessing of self-developed chips, Huawei will not sit still. Huawei has signed a cooperation intention with MediaTek earlier, and delivered 65.438+0.2 billion chips to MediaTek. In other words, if there is no Kirin chip in the future, MediaTek's Tianji chip series will become Huawei's main choice. Even without the advantages of Kirin chip, Huawei will not have no cards to play! Just returned to the same starting line with other domestic mobile phone brands.

At first, we wanted to make our own chips, so we needed the core equipment to process the chips? Mask aligner? . Mask aligner is an essential tool for making chips. Whether a complete chip can be made according to the design drawings depends on whether mask aligner is good enough. ASML (ASML) is the only high-end mask aligner manufacturer in the world. Both TSMC and Samsung must buy mask aligner from ASML in order to get ahead in high-end technology. Mask aligner has a high price and a low output, and everyone wants to get one. After all, we bought a mask aligner at a high price last year. Ironically, the place where mask aligner was made was inexplicably burned down, so we couldn't get the machine.

Mask aligner was destroyed, so Chinese mainland can't produce high-end Kirin chips at present, so it has to go to Taiwan Province Province, China for OEM? TSMC? Production, and then the United States issued a ban prohibiting TSMC from selling chips to Huawei!

China's chip industry will not die, there will be no brain drain, and everything has hope! Ren went to four universities in China to recruit top-notch talents within three days. As long as we have confidence and determination, one day we will have our own chip!
