Huawei is taking a center for semi -conductors with $ 1.4 billion with the intensification of the Chips War
Huawei Technologies is close to completing the construction of a chips research and development center in Shanghai, in a move that increases the technological pursuit of China, even in the light of the United States efforts to block the rise. The center, which will be the largest research facility for ‘Huawei’ in the world, will include approximately 30,000 employees, according to a statement on the site of the Shanghai government. It is located in the Chengu area, with an area of 1.6 million square meters, and contains a limited road network, railway and suspended bridges, according to the statement. The new center aims to achieve achievements in the field of semiconductors for devices, wireless networks and the Internet or Things, according to a report by the government media in January, with a Shanghai government briefing. The total investment cost was 10 billion yuan ($ 1.4 billion), according to a statement published on the government’s website in Chengu. US restrictions have exceeded ‘Huawei’ a target for sanctions and export restrictions that America has imposed for years, as Washington and Beijing compete for superiority in the semiconductor sector. Last year, the company managed to overcome US restrictions by starting a new fifth generation phone, supported by advanced chips made in China with 7 pm technology. Since then, the Biden Administration has launched more restrictions to reduce the superiority of “Huawei” in the field of chips, including the request of its allies that add new restrictions on the Chinese semiconductor sector. It also canceled licenses that enabled Huawei to buy a few chips at the “Qualcomm” and Intel in an effort to fill any gaps in the current conditions. Participants in the industry in the “Huawei” phone, the upcoming Mate 70, are expected to be launched later this year to search for any signals indicating that Beijing has made further progress in the development of slides. The previous version “Mate 60” was a strong demand for consumers in China, and this phone “Huawei” helped restore part of the market share at the expense of competitors, including “Apple”.
