DeepSeek Launches New Financing Round, Investors Who Missed Out in the First Round Scramble to Participate

According to a report by Jinse Finance, on July 15, multiple individuals involved in the transactions revealed that artificial intelligence large model company DeepSeek has initiated discussions for its second round of financing. Two transaction insiders stated that DeepSeek's decision to start a new round of financing at this time is partly due to the "oversubscription" in the previous round, with too much capital queued up hoping to participate. Investment institutions that failed to secure a spot in the earlier round are now actively vying for shares in the new round. One of the insiders noted that many of the funds queued up during the first round were "theoretically unable to get in." Meanwhile, another investor who missed out in the previous round insisted that regardless of DeepSeek's valuation, he is determined to invest this time. (Caijing Magazine)
