According to two insiders, CATL plans to participate in the financing activities of artificial intelligence company DeepSeek, with a target amount of about 50 billion yuan. After the transaction is completed, the valuation may exceed 350 billion yuan. JD.com and NetEase are also in talks to participate, and the final investors and amount may be adjusted. CATL has recently accelerated its layout of AI data center infrastructure business, investing $942 million in Wanguo Data and Zhongheng Electric this month. DeepSeek is building a data center in Inner Mongolia and recruiting operations and maintenance personnel. Its low-cost open-source model has created competitive pressure on OpenAI and others.
