Huawei is currently putting a lot of pressure on the Samsung company for a reason that of course does not come as a surprise to anyone, but we are still talking about a special situation. Those from Huawei are putting a lot of pressure on Samsung and SK Hynix to continue supplying various components that the company needs to continue producing its phones, tablets, computers, and other electronic devices.
Huawei would have called the representatives of the two partner companies to meetings in South Korea to ensure that they will continue to supply him with components despite the new US sanctions. It is not known what kind of conclusion was reached, but it is quite clear that Huawei wants to make sure that it has enough to produce its electronic devices even after September, when it is going to integrate into force the new very tough sanctions that have been imposed by the USA.
Huawei puts a lot of PRESSURE on Samsung, here's the reason
Huawei it would currently prepare a stock of components that would last for about a year, but it needs the cooperation of Samsung and SK Hynix to also produce high-performance RAM memory modules. Huawei can hardly manage to make its phones without the help of the two South Korean companies, and it remains to be seen to what extent it will manage to convince them, both refusing to confirm or deny what is being asked of them.
Huawei is looking for solutions so as not to be substantially affected by the effects of the new sanctions imposed by the USA, and as Samsung and SK Hynix collect about 8.1 billion dollars annually from the Chinese, they have every interest in helping. It is not known if semiconductors are produced in the Samsung and SK Hynix factories using technologies or equipment produced in the USA, but if this is the case, then those from Huawei will have no way to take advantage of the close connection with these two companies.
Huawei of course, it has alternatives in China to replace Samsung and SK Hynix, but those companies do not have the same high-performance technologies for manufacturing semiconductors.
