Huawei is resuming production of its own HiSilicon chips this year. How?

Until 2019, there were four major manufacturers of mobile processors on the smartphone market: Qualcomm with Snapdragon, MediaTek with the Helio and Dimensity series, Exynos from Samsung and Huawei with proprietary HiSilicon Kirin chips, which at one time were worthy competitors of the above. After that, America imposed sanctions on Huawei, due to which TSMC could no longer produce Kirin processors for the Chinese company. But that may soon change.

What does it mean?

This is not a leak or a rumor, but information straight from the mouth. Huawei has announced the good news that in 2022, after 2 year old break, will return their HiSilicon chips. This is stated in the advertising poster.

However, the company did not provide any further details. How will it resume production in the face of the imposed sanctions? Who will be involved in the production? Does this mean that the partnership with TSMC is renewed? Will the chips be named Kirin or will they be renamed? Unfortunately, so far all these questions remain unanswered.
