https://youtu.be/vWXaS7C-SRI?t=74 Oct 4, 2025 China’s semiconductor leap is shaking global markets as Huawei unveils its Ascend 910C processor, disrupting the long-standing dominance of U.S. chipmakers. The breakthrough comes alongside China’s progress in extreme ultraviolet lithography, a technology once monopolized by the West, signaling a major step toward technological independence. Despite early production challenges, China is compensating through scale and state-backed investment, fueling a rapid transformation in its computing, telecom, and consumer electronics industries.
The ripple effects are seen in shifting smartphone market shares, massive cloud infrastructure expansion, and surging investments from Chinese tech giants like Tencent, Alibaba, and Baidu. With new ecosystems emerging across semiconductors, 5G networks, and advanced devices, the global balance of technology leadership is undergoing a fundamental change. Western companies face mounting pressure as China’s parallel innovation system accelerates, reshaping industries from mobile devices to high-performance computing.
