Huawei are already fabricating their own processors through a company called HiSilicon. When I started I didn't see much of their own brand stuff, but now it's growing. Mind you this is specific to telecommunications and embedded devices. There was one disadvantage to them, ARM, PPC, MIPS and Intel architectures are all UK or US licensed so they were built to those standards. However since Trump decided to have a trade war and ban companies from dealing with them, they're rapidly moving to RISC-V, an open source and free Instruction Set Architecture (ISA). Where as before they were slowly planning to stop using Western tech, Trump forced their hand. They are massively accelerating their research programs to reduce all dependence on the west. Google, Facebook and other massive tech firms realised this and tried to stop the trade embargo, but the damage is done. China will never go back to buying or selling to the US if they don't have to after the switch. $FB $GOOGL $GOOG. The problem with this is that you're going form a mobile with 60% Chinese tech to 100% Chinese tech. This is especially dangerous in the Telco networks because them and ZTE have all but destroyed Nokia and Ericsson. Our world is about to get a whole lot more red and lose a lot of technology. I'd say within 5 years it will all be backwards.comments above via a former Huawei worker. $NOK, Nokia Corporation Sponsored / H1
