Huawei boss claims homegrown AI chip sales top Nvidia in China
"Chinese people have a keen sense of urgency, and will not accept a future in which others decide whether or not we can have access to certain products."Since taking office, the Trump administration has done an about-face on export controls. After imposing new licensing requirements on Nvidia's and AMD's China-spec accelerators in April 2025, the US Commerce Department reversed course that summer, later reaching an arrangement to cut the US government in on a percentage of certain China-bound chip sales. By late last year, the Trump administration loosened restrictions further, announcing that Nvidia would be allowed to sell its more potent H200-series parts to approved Chinese customers for the first time ever.
