Liang Wenfeng is the mind behind the The Deepseek who has challenged Open AI and has trembled the Wall Street bag. Making Nvidia fall by 17%, with losses of 592,000 million dollars. With your startup composed of A team of less than ten people It has become an unexpected competitor for the Titans of great technological ones. Experts agree that He has a long -term vision and his tesmonios support him. It is discreet, and does not usually grant interviews, but in ‘The China Academy’ in July 2024, this “accident disruptor”, as he is called, said that China no longer has to follow anyone. “It’s time to lead”he sentenced.
He acknowledges that Nvidia has the forte to collaborate with Western ecosystems to devise plans for the next technological generation. And this vision is the one that has so far lacked the Asian giant. «Many national chips fail because they lack technological communities that support them and depend on second -hand information. Someone should take the step, ”he said in the interview. And added: “Our challenge has never been money, but the embargo on high -end chips.”
Who is this innovative?
This 40 -year -old businessman was born in the Chinese province of Guangdong. He says that He grew up in a fifth category city and his father was a primary school teacher. He studied electrical engineering at the University of Zhejiang and began to look between the local creative thinking.
One of his most important moments was when he co-founded the High-Flyer quantitative coverage fund in 2015. Dedicated to automatic learning for decision making in large markets. When the firm began to grow Liang It derived even more attention to artificial intelligence researchwith high-flyer ai in 2019.
‘Bloomberg’ details that in 2021, Liang acquired 10,000 NVIDIA H800 processors, anticipating the export restrictions imposed by the United States. And ‘Financial Times’ clarifies that With this hardware and a group of experts in the optimization of these chips, began to build an infrastructure to train advanced models of ia. And by 2023, I was already getting deepseek with a declared philosophy: «The essence of human intelligence could be language; Human thinking could be a linguistic process «.
Of a change of course without “inscrutable magicians”
«The most important thing at this time is to participate in global innovation. For years, Chinese companies have become accustomed to taking advantage of the technological innovations developed in other places and monetizing them through applications«, Explain to ‘The China Academy’. But this visionary considers That this model is not sustainable. Its objective is not rapid profits, “but to advance the technological border to boost ecosystem.” And in his opinion That is what has surprised Silicon Valley’s minds.
He insists that his code is not going to close in the future because he considers that their AI services must be affordable and accessible to all. AND China is increasingly seeing strengths for this sector. The State Bank of Investment CICC estimates that the Chinese Sector of AI could attract 1.4 billion dollars in capital in the next six years. For now, Depseek has already managed to place in first place in the free download lists of the App Store mobile application store in the US and China, surpassing Chatgpt in the process.
About his team, Liang points out that There are no “inscrutable magicians”, only newly graduated from the best universitiesdoctoral candidates. Even fourth or fifth year and young talents with some years of experience. «The best talents in China are usually underestimated because radical innovation is scarce, which means that they are rarely recognized. We offer them what they yearn »and they They give him a thought out of the box ‘. And for now, Everything indicates that they will give much to talk about. While President Donald Trump qualifies Depseek’s landing as “A attention call.”
