China’s Disruptive AI Chatbot and Its Founder Liang Wenfeng’s Vision

DeepSec:In the world of technology, a Chinese company’s AI chatbot, *DeepSec*, has taken the spotlight. Within just 10 days of its launch, the app became the most downloaded in over 50 countries, including the United States. But who is the founder of *DeepSec*, and how did he develop an alternative to major chatbots like ChatGPT?
*DeepSec* was founded by **Liang Wenfeng**, a Chinese entrepreneur and businessman. Liang is also the co-founder of the investment group *High Flyer* and the CEO of *DeepSec*. Born in 1985 in Zhangjiang city, China, Liang Wenfeng comes from a modest background—his father was a primary school teacher. He pursued his education at Zhejiang University, where he obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Electronic Information Engineering in 2007, followed by a Master’s degree in Information and Communication Engineering in 2010.
After graduation, Liang moved to a small flat in Chengdu city and began working on artificial intelligence applications in various fields. Despite facing multiple failures, he succeeded in applying AI in the finance sector, specifically in quantitative trading. This led to the establishment of his company in 2013, which utilized AI in the finance industry.
However, a major milestone in Liang’s career came in 2016 when he founded *High Flyer*. The company integrates mathematics and AI to transform the investment and finance sectors.
In 2023, Liang took another giant step forward by founding *DeepSec*. His vision for *DeepSec* was to develop China’s version of a language model similar to ChatGPT. The company’s first version, *DeepSec Coder*, utilized artificial intelligence to assist with coding tasks. By 2024, *DeepSec* began to establish its presence in the AI field, and its AI chatbot, launched on January 20, made waves in the industry.
The success of *DeepSec* comes at a time when major global players like OpenAI and others have promised to invest $500 billion in building artificial intelligence infrastructure in the United States. Upon returning to the White House, President Donald Trump hailed the U.S. AI infrastructure initiative as “the largest AI project in history,” one that would help secure America’s technological future.
With its disruptive innovation, *DeepSec* is creating a new chapter in AI development, offering a fresh alternative to global market leaders like ChatGPT, and signaling China’s growing influence in the global artificial intelligence race.
