Other players
For me, the most exciting processors to have been designed and produced in China of late, are the RISC-V family of processors that Alibaba subsidiary, T-Head, announced in 2019. They're now on a SoC - the TH1520 - which is said to have the performance of a top flight smartphone from 2016 : which is certainly sufficiency for light computing tasks. It's said to be coming out in the ROMA laptop, and on a Sipeed SoM (in various formats, including a phone).
There are other collective efforts around chip design too, which are collaborations between industry and education - the XianShan processors spring to mind. Huawei (and others) have also produced RISC-V developer boards to forward the rebasing of software, which is actually what RISC-V needs now.

Google's decision to make RISC-V a Tier-1 candidate for Android is also going to give the ISA a shot in the arm.
