DeepSeek Reportedly Raises RMB 50B, with Liang Wenfeng Funding 40%, Valuation Reaching RMB 350B

曝DeepSeek融资500亿元：梁文锋自掏四成，估值飙至3500亿

DeepSeek is negotiating a $7.3 billion funding round at an estimated $51.5 billion valuation; Liang Wenfeng reportedly plans to contribute 40%, while Tencent and China’s RMB 60 billion national AI fund are also in talks.

Why it matters: HKR-H/K/R all pass: the DeepSeek funding rumor has large numbers, a founder contribution ratio, and named backers. Because it is still reported as talks with no official confirmation, it stays at 84 and featured, not p1.
