Ants accelerate their chip layout, and recently invested in companies such as Xinyuan Semiconductor.

Recently, several chip-related companies have been newly invested by Ant Group. On August 26, Shanghai Yungime Enterprise Management Consulting Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Ant Group, acquired a 1.87% stake in Xinyuan Semiconductor Co., Ltd. This is not the first time Ant Group has invested in the chip industry. From recent actions, in addition to large models and embodied intelligence, major companies are also increasingly focusing on AI computing power and chips. Previously, a person in charge of the investment department of Ant Group stated that when evaluating cutting-edge technology projects, Ant Group pays most attention to the foresight and scarcity of the technology. The technological revolution brought by AI will profoundly affect the entire technology industry, and investment is a gift possessed by large technology companies with relatively abundant resources. How to make good use of this endowment is a question that strategic investment teams must consider.
