DeepSeek Founder Liang Wenfeng Welcomed as Hero in Hometown

DeepSeek Founder Liang Wenfeng Receives Hero's Welcome in Hometown, Boosting Local Tourism

Liang Wenfeng, the founder and chief executive of DeepSeek, was celebrated with much enthusiasm during his recent visit to his hometown, Mililing village in Zhanjiang, Guangdong province, for the Lunar New Year holiday. According to local reports, the visit has heightened the profile of his hometown, converting it into a budding tourist attraction.

The attention DeepSeek has garnered, both domestically and internationally, underscores its transformative impact on the artificial intelligence (AI) industry. Based in Hangzhou, DeepSeek is known for developing AI models that are cost-effective and resource-efficient, challenging the conventional giants like OpenAI, Google, and Meta Platforms by matching or surpassing performance standards across key industry benchmarks. This achievement is even more remarkable given the tightened US restrictions on China's access to advanced semiconductors and related technologies, which have not impeded DeepSeek's progress.

The influx of tourists to Mililing village is not only a testament to Liang's contributions to the tech world but also a boost to the local economy, previously less known outside of regional maps. According to data from the IndexBox platform, such regional tourism spikes can lead to increased local revenue, providing a substantial economic uplift to areas like Mililing. The scenic village of Mililing is rapidly turning into a must-visit destination for tech enthusiasts and those intrigued by China's advancements in AI technologies.
