CEO of Silicon-based Fluid Denies Refusal of DeepSeek's Investment: Expressing Regret Over Lack of Cooperation
Recently, discussions have arisen regarding the early development of Silicon-based Fluid following reports of its completion of Pre-A round financing. A previous report by Venture Capital Daily stated that in the second half of 2023, DeepSeek's founder Liang Wenfeng expressed interest in investing in Silicon-based Fluid, with the condition of open-sourcing its self-developed LLM inference engine, which was reportedly rejected by Silicon-based Fluid's CEO Yuan Jinhui. In response, Yuan Jinhui denied these claims today, stating that his mention of not collaborating with Liang Wenfeng in 2023 was an expression of regret over his own lack of foresight.
