US struggling to limit Huawei and Chinese tech growth

Huawei is constantly exploring ways that not only add to its own growth amid US sanctions but also contribute to the Chinese tech industry. And looks like these efforts are making the Biden administration concerned and afraid at the same time.
For the past five years, Huawei has been struggling in various fields following the US restrictions. The company is still unable to reach advanced chipmaking tools.
Trump-era chained Huawei for the US’s national security concerns. The Biden administration further increased export controls, shutting every backdoor that could help the company or China with the technological means in any manner.
On the flip side, Huawei is facing the ‘rip and replace’ issues in many overseas markets for its 5G network solutions. It is so as the UK, US, and EU countries believe that Chinese tech could spy on their confidential data and harm users’ privacy.
Despite these many challenges the company tried to firm its legs on its home turf. It stepped back into the Chinese smartphone market in 2023 with the Mate 60 series and expanded its power with dedication, hard work, and self-made technologies.
Even though Huawei is still amid the circle of challenges, it seems the US is now struggling to limit the company’s and Chinese tech growth. The company is reducing its reliance on US technologies and reaching new heights in cloud, software – HarmonyOS NEXT, as well as smart automotive solutions in China.
Besides, the OEM is constantly getting support from Chinese firms. The companies not only prohibited iPhone use but also chose Ascend AI chips over Nvidia.

One of the best examples in this case is the DeepSeek R1 AI model which is trained using Nvidia H100 processors but runs on Huawei Ascend 910C chip. Amid tougher US restrictions, Huawei is still making way to success in the AI and chipset field.
This eventually shows that the US is making several efforts to target Huawei and Chinese tech growth, but is struggling to get the desired results. How things will proceed under Trump 2.0 would be worth looking at.
