Kirin Maker: Huawei will support HiSilicon for its chipset journey

At Huawei Connect 2021, Eric Xu, Rotating Chairman of the company said in an interview with the media that HiSilicon, the Kirin chipmaker, is only a chip design department. He also mentioned that Huawei has no profit requirement from HiSilicon.

However, the Huawei chief also mentioned that the company will continue to support and raise its chip designing subsidiary and will also allow outstanding talents to join the company to prepare it for future ventures.

Xu further expressed that Huawei is currently aiming to survive in harsh conditions and we are now in a process of survival. Under this process, different companies have different choices and a large number of companies will choose to give and lay off employees. On the other hand, Huawei has its own approach.

Huawei wants to survive all of the outcomes and challenges. Therefore, it may face many technical outages and problems that need to be resolved, which requires top talents to overcome the difficulties.

So we are now spreading out hands and collecting the world’s top talents to join Huawei, and helps it solve as well as improve our overall strength in the survival process. This will all lead towards our prime goal.

Xu concluded its remarks by saying that our approach in this difficult time is different from other companies and we hope that Huawei achieves this path.

HiSilicon:

This is not the first time when the Huawei chief has come up with such remarks regarding the Kirin maker – HiSilicon. Back in April, during the Huawei Analyst Summit, Eric reiterated the same statement on the ground.

In June, HiSilicon started recruiting new talents that could further enhance the competitiveness of the company in various technologies and put the recruitment in the following categories:

• Chips
• Hardware
• Research
• Software
• Testing
• System

The recruitment is currently underway and seemingly continues to move forward in this way.
