According to a report from CryptoBriefing, as published by Techub News, DeepSeek founder Liang Wenfeng is adjusting the strategy of his quantitative hedge fund High-Flyer, shifting its focus toward pre-IPO investments in Chinese technology companies. The fund has already secured a Pre-IPO quota of about $26 million in CXMT, a Chinese maker of memory chips, in 2026, and it has also taken a stake in Unitree Robotics, a robotics company. This new direction means High-Flyer is now buying into private companies before they go public. DeepSeek itself raised $7.4 billion in external financing in June 2026, at a valuation of about $52 billion. Liang Wenfeng personally contributed roughly $3 billion to that round. The company now plans to list on Shanghai's STAR Market in 2027. Its investment focus on chips, AI and advanced manufacturing ties in with the commercialization of its AI tools. The original story was reported by CryptoBriefing.
