Economic Daily: Huawei's Kirin Blazes a Trail to Break Through

In mid-October, at its terminal innovation technology communication meeting, Huawei released two major pieces of news: the Kirin 9050 series chips using the new "logic folding" technology have been successfully mass-produced; and since Kirin's return in August 2023, cumulative shipments of terminal products based on Kirin chips have exceeded 100 million units. Mass production means the technology has successfully passed its trials; exceeding 100 million means the market has voted with its feet. These two pieces of news are enough to lift spirits, showing that China's high-end chips have carved out a path of differentiated breakthrough under heavy constraints.
