The Quiet Breakthrough in Semiconductor Chips

At the private enterprise symposium in the first half of this year, Huawei’s founder stated that the issue of being “choked” in semiconductor chips has basically been resolved.

Since then, one good news after another has emerged from China’s semiconductor industry.

Currently, Huawei’s new generation of foldable flagship Mate XTs has been released, with Executive Director Yu Chengdong announcing that it is equipped with the Kirin 9020 chip.

(He also mentioned, “Using a large screen to watch the market and make big money.” )

This is the first time the Kirin chip has appeared at a Huawei press conference since 2021, after a four-year hiatus.

The chip achieves a performance breakthrough through software-hardware cloud collaboration, with an overall performance increase of 36%.

After the public debut of the Kirin 9020, Western media reported that Huawei’s move reflects substantial changes in the domestic semiconductor industry environment. The fact that it is now openly presented indicates that the relevant technological processes are now self-controlled, and the security barriers of the industrial chain have basically formed.

In addition, the Mate 70 series and Pura 80 series will also be equipped with this chip, with all CPU cores being self-developed, significantly enhancing performance.

From now on, China has become the only country in the world that has complete autonomy in high-end mobile chip architecture, design, production, and application.

Currently, Qualcomm and Apple’s chip architectures are from the UK, and production is in Taiwan, not to mention other countries.
