DeepSeek will complete a 100 billion yuan financing round.

According to multiple individuals involved in the transaction, large model company DeepSeek is set to complete its latest round of financing in the near future, increasing the funding amount from the previously planned 50 billion yuan to approximately 100 billion yuan. This is DeepSeek's second round of financing, with the proposed funding amount doubling in less than half a month. The proposed investment amounts from new and existing shareholders each account for roughly half. The doubling of the financing scale has not impacted the overall valuation, with DeepSeek's current pre-money valuation remaining at approximately 500 billion yuan. New investors in this round include Shixi Capital, SMIC Juyuan, CPE Source Link, Legend Capital, and Geely, primarily consisting of industrial investors.
