With Kunpeng, Huawei sees an opportunity in the chip market. Their chip activities are therefore being expanded and substantial investments are being made. The company says it doesn’t want to compete with Intel, but we think Huawei actually does. The fact is that the company is being forced, as it can no longer buy processors from Intel because of Trump’s trading ban. They need a good alternative. That alternative is not available on the market, so Huawei has to build it themselves. A big challenge, although Huawei is very close when you think a bit out-of-the-box.
