Huawei launched a laptop equipped with a high -performance processor with a high -performance processor with Intel's new Core Ultra 9 on April 11, which caused the criticism of Republican lawmakers. They pointed out that the Ministry of Commerce turned on a green light for Intel to sell chips to Huawei.
In 2019, the United States pointed out that Huawei violated the US sanctions on Iran and included it on the trade restriction list. Before the US supplier shipped Huawei, it was necessary to apply for a special and difficult permit.Nevertheless, Huawei's suppliers have obtained a license to sell billions of dollars of goods and technology to Huawei. Among them, a controversial authorization issued by the Trump administration allows Intel to transport central processors from Huawei since 2020.Used for laptops.
The decision of the Ministry of Commerce is expected to impact US suppliers.Intel's traditional data center and personal computer chip facing weak demand.Last month, as the prediction of revenue and profits in the second quarter was lower than market expectations, Intel's market value loss was $ 11 billion (S $ 14.873 billion).
After the British Financial Times reported on Tuesday that Qualcomm's export license was revoked, Qualcomm's stock price fell 0.9 %, and Intel's stock price almost changed.

Since obtaining permission in 2020, Qualcomm has been supplying chips that can provide the fourth -generation communication system (4G) network connection to Huawei, but it is not allowed to sell devices supporting 5G access.Qualcomm said that other Huawei business was very limited, and it will soon shrink. It is expected that more chip income will not be obtained from Huawei this year.
However, Qualcomm still authorizes Huawei to use its 5G technology portfolio. Huawei began using 5G chips designed by Hisilicon's department last year. Most analysts believe that the manufacturing of this chip violates US sanctions.Qualcomm said in the document submitted this month that the patent agreement with Huawei's Huawei will expire early in the 2025 fiscal year, and the agreement renewal negotiations will be launched.
Critics believe that such licenses help Huawei's revival.In August last year, although the United States implemented export restrictions on Intel and Qualcomm, Huawei also launched a new mobile phone driven by a Chinese manufacturer SMIC (SMIC), which shocked the industry.
Marketing Research Company's Counterpoint data shows that this phone has made Huawei smart phones sales soar 64 % year -on -year in the first six weeks of this year.Huawei Smart Automobile Parts Business also drives the company's rejuvenation, which has made Huawei the fastest income growth in four years last year.
Bloomberg's supply chain analysis shows that Huawei is not among the top ten customers of Qualcomm, nor is it on the list of big customers in Intel.
