The situation now is a bit different: china has decided to encourage switching from intel(due to security reasons), and there are already a few companies working with semi-open IP(ARM/POWER) designing processors for the chinese server market.
And i won't be surprised to learn quallcom will be also aiming at that market in some form.
And from that base ,competing with intel is a serious possibility.

While Quallcom may very well be setting it's sights on competing with Intel doing so because countries do not trust Intel anymore won't be much of an opportunity for them because they'll be painted with the same brush.
