DeepSeek Eyes $45B Valuation in First Funding Round

DeepSeek首轮融资估值或达450亿美元

Chinese AI startup DeepSeek may reach a $45 billion valuation in its first venture funding round, according to reports from the Financial Times and Bloomberg. The company gained global attention in early 2025 after releasing a powerful AI model trained at far lower cost than leading U.S. systems from OpenAI and Anthropic. Founded by hedge fund billionaire Liang Wenfeng, DeepSeek previously avoided outside funding but is now seeking capital partly to retain talent. Bloomberg says the round could be led by the Chinese state-backed China Integrated Circuit Industry Investment Fund, with Tencent and Alibaba also in talks to invest.

中国AI初创公司DeepSeek首轮融资估值可能达到450亿美元。据《金融时报》和彭博社报道，该公司因以远低于美国竞争对手成本训练出强大AI模型而在2025年初迅速走红。公司由中国对冲基金富豪梁文锋创立，此前一直未接受外部投资。如今，DeepSeek计划融资以留住人才并扩大竞争力。报道称，中国国家背景基金可能领投，腾讯和阿里巴巴也可能参与投资。
