Guo Ping, the rotating chairman of Huawei, stated in an interview that we will continue to maintain his investment in HiSilicon, which he believes will help the company’s Kirin chips. The senior executive also stated that he would be helping its partners as well, to improve and develop their own offerings as well.
According to Ping, maintaining investment within Huawei’s chip designing subsidiary will have the firm bounce back stronger than before and help its proprietary Kirin chips overcome recent obstacles. For those unaware, US sanctions have cut off the Chinese tech giant’s chip supply from TSMC and, to make matters worse, further regulations have banned Huawei from obtaining chips from other companies since they utilized American technology.

Previously, we had reported on HiSilicon facing issues as engineers were walking out of the company. So, it is clear that the company is facing a crisis. In an article titled “Don’t waste an opportunity in a crisis,” the Chairman gave his views regarding the entire situation revolving around the US crackdown, chip supply, future development, and more.
The senior official also said that the suppression of Kirin chips have caused difficulties for Huawei, but he believes the issue will be resolved. He even stated that “it will not be the United States that can defeat Huawei, but Huawei itself can defeat Huawei. A firm right direction, a vibrant organization, and culture are the real challenges we face. These problems are not handled properly. Will fail and die.”
