Huawei's issue has a huge impact. Intel, Qualcomm and others put pressure on the US government to resume cooperation

As for the current situation, Huawei has become the world's largest communications company and the largest smartphone manufacturer in China. According to the list at Huawei's 2018 Supplier Conference, there are 92 core suppliers, most of which are American companies.

      Therefore, Huawei's inclusion in the "Entity List" not only hits Huawei itself, but also has a far-reaching impact on the business of these partners. Not long ago, foreign media revealed that Google executives maintained communication with the US Department of Commerce, attempting to lobby the other party to lift the ban so that Huawei's Android mobile phone system can continue to receive security updates. Facts have proved that Google is not the only one to stand up for Huawei.

      According to reports, Intel, Xilinx, Qualcomm and other companies have negotiated with the US Department of Commerce, hoping that the latter will give Huawei a break and allow it to continue to provide smartphone and PC-related chip products. They emphasized that these are general-purpose chips and have nothing to do with the government's concerns about Huawei's 5G infrastructure construction. Broadcom, the world's largest IC design company, said last week that the Huawei ban could cause its sales revenue to decrease by up to $2 billion this year. Huawei is said to have contributed $900 million in revenue to Broadcom last year, accounting for 4%.

      From this point of view, although Huawei is in an awkward position in the Sino-US trade war, in the face of interests, even American companies cannot unconditionally cooperate with the US at the expense of their own performance.
