The Chinese drama market was booming in May.
"Breaking Down" was launched with great force, far ahead of other new works with unparalleled statistics. Song Zuer's return may have given all the domestic entertainment fans a sense of crisis.
So far, the popularity of the show has successfully exceeded 30,000. Looking at this momentum, do you plan to continue to harvest the market?
Unfortunately, the schedule was not coincidental, and it encountered a strong enemy——
"The Legend of Tibetan Sea".
This Machiavellian drama starring Xiao Zhan is the TOP1 most anticipated drama in Mainland China in 2025. Being on CCTV shows its potential to be a hit.
Therefore, the show did not exceed the audience's expectations after it was launched. After only 2 hours of broadcasting, the peak ratings easily exceeded 2, which is quite impressive.
However, this report card is not only due to Xiao Zhan's top popularity, but also to the fact that the play itself has a level that exceeds that of works of the same type.
After watching 2 episodes in one go, I just want to say that this is the drama king of the year in 2025!
So what’s so good about this show?
01 Top quality, gripping plot, classic Machiavellian flavor
"The Legend of Zanghai" tells the story of Zhinu (played by Xiao Zhan), the son of Zheng Kuaiduo, the eunuch of Qintian Prison, who saw his family being exterminated with his own eyes, and a seed of hatred was planted in his heart.
After ten years of hard study, he changed his face and became "Zanghai". He rose to prominence in the court by virtue of his construction skills and manipulation skills, and finally revealed the truth about the family's annihilation.
To make a good Machiavellian drama, the director must not only be clear about what he is filming, but also make it understandable to the audience.
Although the story background of the play is complex, it has a clear structure and distinct characters. The highlights can be summarized in three words.
The first word: suspense.
Ten years ago, the hero's father, Kuai Duo, pretended to be a Buddhist monk, but secretly dug more than a thousand feet underground until he unearthed an ancient tomb.
Several workers died mysteriously, and all the soldiers in the tomb were dispatched.
Kuai Duo grabbed a "green rock" at the last moment, and the scene was completely dark. What happened?
As soon as the camera turned, news came from the capital that the Fengchan Tower collapsed and no one survived.
However, Kuai Duo hurried home late at night, and before he could speak, the whole family was surrounded and suppressed by Lu Yin of Pingjin Houzhuang.
It was obvious that he was here for the mysterious ancient jade.
For this thing, he did not hesitate to cover up people's eyes and let the Fengzen Tower, which was finally repaired, be destroyed. One can imagine the wide involvement behind it.
And although it is a plot drama, the plot involves tomb exploration adventures and feng shui manipulation, which adds to the suspenseful atmosphere of the plot and makes people more and more fascinated by it.
The second word: tragic.
On this night, more than ten members of Kuai's family were killed. Only Kuai Duo's son, Zhinu, escaped because he hid in a secret passage.
At a young age, he watched his relatives die tragically.
And the words "live on" that his father silently said before he died have become the only belief in Zhinu's life.
In this scene, the audience can truly feel the director's shooting skills.
Even if a young apprentice pretends to be a child slave in order to repay a favor, it is extremely touching.
A sense of tragedy hit the face, and the audience could truly feel the hero's heart-wrenching hatred.
The third word: revenge.
Since the previous part was quite heavy, the atmosphere of the plot eased as the male protagonist grew up.
At that time, the child slave had changed his name to Zanghai, and was learning skills from his masters. Finally, he came back to Beijing for revenge.
Of course, the feeling of satisfaction can only appear in the later stages. The so-called development of a male protagonist requires more experience and setbacks.
When Zanghai first entered the capital, he realized that people's hearts are sinister, crouching tigers, hidden dragons, but isn't he just a lurking dragon in the abyss?
Just waiting to accumulate a lot of strength and give the enemy a fatal blow.
It can be said that Zheng Xiaolong is the only one who can capture the machinations with such quality.
The level of "The Legend of Tibetan Sea" is definitely not inferior to those classic works, and the addition of actors also provides a lot of blessings to the drama.
02 All the actors are talented, Xiao Zhan is so amazing
This new work has a strong cast, and not a single actor is cast for free, making the characters flesh-and-blood and vivid.
First place, Xiao Zhan.
To be honest, I was worried that Xiao Zhan wouldn't be able to sustain such a heavy story at first, but I didn't expect that his acting skills would improve so much.
For example, under the test of the masked benefactor, he seemed to casually tell the details of the family's destruction, but in fact his eyes had an undercurrent, as if containing overwhelming hatred, which immediately created the tension of the character.
Moreover, Xiao Zhan's costume style is a major advantage in itself. It is rare to see such a good-looking and capable young man.
Just choose him.
The second place is Zhong Hanliang.
I didn't expect that Chung Han-liang would one day play the role of Xiao Zhan's father, but the Kuai Duo he played in the play was so upright, with a mustache, his mature, steady and gentle temperament was even more obvious.
At Chung Hanliang's age, he is actually suitable for playing some high-quality roles.
Before dying, the scene where Kuai Duo looks at his child can be regarded as the highlight of the whole play. The silent lines express his despair for fate and reluctance to let go of his son.
It seems that Zhong Hanliang has already entered the camp of the Mesozoic powerful faction without knowing it.
The third place is Chen Yanxi.
After the divorce, Michelle Chen seemed to be cheating. There was the tolerant and intelligent wealthy lady Kaisi Chen in "Dear Enemy" before, and later there was the gentle and powerful Zhao Shangxian in "The Legend of Hidden Sea". Every new role can be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
But I still prefer the latter role, because Chen Yanxi played the strongest side of an ancient woman. In order not to drag her husband down, she risked her life to resist. Her weak and tough figure made people's eyes red.
Although she is a supporting role in the play, I think Michelle Chen has become the heroine of her life.
The fourth place is Huang Jue.
Huang Jue is also recognized as a capable actor, but he has a wide range of roles, and he can be both good and bad.
In the new drama, he plays Zhuang Luyin, a villainous boss with a compelling aura. He doesn't need to put on a show, and his characteristics of being calm, self-confident, and vicious are all there.
From the perspective of the male protagonist, facing such a powerful enemy, one really needs to be careful every step of the way.
In addition, the performance of the young flower Zhang Jingyi was also good, performing the "white and black" attributes of Xiang An Tu.
There are also actors familiar to the audience such as Yu Nan, Zhang Guoqiang, Qiao Zhenyu, Bai Bing, etc. who will play important roles. The lineup looks like a masterpiece.
03 Conclusion
We do not deny that inviting a popular actor to serve as the male lead in "The Legend of the Hidden Sea" is a risky move.
But times have changed. If domestic costume dramas want to attract people, sometimes they have to bow to traffic.
And this is not a bad thing, it all depends on what kind of popular actors the director chooses.
A young man like Xiao Zhan who has his own popularity and can hold up the role is still worth betting on.
As long as the script can support the film and the actors can stand up to their roles, there will be no need to worry about no one watching.
Therefore, the popularity of this new work is actually within the expectations of the audience, but whether it can go further still depends on the subsequent plot and acting performance.
I believe this drama can inject new vitality into the Chinese drama market and add another benchmark for the Machiavellian theme.
So what do you think about this?
IT House reported on March 17 that at the 2026 GTC held early this morning, NVIDIA founder and CEO Jensen Huang delivered a keynote speech, calling on global companies: they must seize the opportunity of the current explosion of AI agents and formulate their own "OpenClaw strategy."
Any company in the world today needs to have its own OpenClaw strategy, a strategy for an intelligent system, which is the new computer.
Jen-Hsun Huang highly praised OpenClaw, an open source AI agent project that has set off a craze around the world. Although its founder has been poached by OpenAI, OpenClaw will continue to exist and develop as an open source project.
Jen-Hsun Huang said: "OpenClaw allows us to create personal intelligence, and the significance of this is incredible." He further pointed out that OpenClaw "provides what the industry needs most when it needs it most."
To illustrate the potential of OpenClaw more vividly, Huang compared it with milestones in the history of PC development. He believes that OpenClaw is to artificial intelligence what the Windows operating system is to personal computing.
In addition, he compared it to influential technologies such as the Linux operating system, Kubernetes cloud projects, and HTML. Huang Renxun explained: "It allows the entire industry to seize this open source software stack and do various innovations based on it."
While praising OpenClaw, Huang Renxun also pointed out a major challenge in its application: security. To this end, NVIDIA announced the launch of its own version based on OpenClaw - NemoClaw. The product allows users to add privacy and security controls to their AI agents.
"It has a network guardrail and a privacy router, so we can protect these 'claws' and prevent them from executing instructions at will within the company, so as to achieve safe operation," Huang explained.
In order to promote NemoClaw, NVIDIA held a special "Claw Making" event during the conference, allowing participants to develop their own customized AI agents.
OpenClaw founder Peter Steinberg said: "OpenClaw brings people closer to AI and helps create a world where everyone has their own intelligent agent."
In addition to releasing strategies related to OpenClaw, Huang also announced a number of major news on the first day of GTC, including the launch of a new inference system integrated with Groq technology. Previously, Nvidia had reached a $20 billion deal with the AI chip startup. At the same time, Huang Renxun predicts that the market demand for its Blackwell and Rubin AI chips will reach US$1 trillion by 2027.
2026.2.18 Real-time Gold Quotes: Domestic market closed, international rebound! How to go after the festival? Buy the dip or wait and see?
On the second day of the first lunar month of the Year of the Horse in 2026, the gold market showed a differentiated pattern of domestic closures and international rebounds. Many people are concerned: Is it worthwhile to buy gold now? Will it rise or fall after the holidays? This article explains the real-time gold price, reasons for rise and fall, market outlook and operation suggestions for ordinary people at once.
1. Quick overview of real-time gold prices (updated at 12:20 on February 18)
International gold price (normal trading)
- London gold spot: 4924.71 US dollars / ounce, +66.73, +1.37%
- COMEX Gold Futures: $4914.50/oz, +0.38%
Domestic gold price (market closed, maintaining pre-holiday closing price)
- Gold T+D: 1108.5 yuan/gram, -16.55, -1.47%
-Shanghai gold main company: 1110.1 yuan/gram, -18.16, -1.61%
- Bank investment gold bars: 1109–1134 yuan/gram
- Retail price of pure gold in gold store: 1480-1560 yuan/gram
- Gold recycling reference: about 1060-1083 yuan/gram
The domestic market will be closed from February 14th to February 23rd, and normal trading will resume on February 24th; international fluctuations during the holiday will directly affect the opening after the holiday.
2. Why does the gold price diverge today?
- International rebound: The US dollar weakens, low buying orders enter the market, and risk aversion sentiment rebounds slightly
- Domestic static: The market is closed during the Spring Festival, and the price stays at the pre-holiday closing price
- Short-term pressure: The Fed's expected interest rate cut is postponed, high profit taking is taken, and the gold price has previously retreated.
3. What do you think of the post-holiday trend?
- Short term (1-2 weeks): The main focus is to find the bottom in shocks. The international focus is on the support of 4800-4850 US dollars, and the domestic support is 1080-1100 yuan/gram; the rebound pressure is 4950-5000 US dollars, 1120-1140 yuan/gram.
- Mid-term: The central bank’s gold purchase supports the bottom, geopolitical risks still exist, the space for deep decline is limited, and the allocation value remains
- Key observations: Federal Reserve policy, U.S. dollar index, situation in the Middle East, post-holiday physical consumption demand
4. A must-read for ordinary people: Gold buying & investment advice
1. Buy jewelry (consumption)
- Gold stores have high quotations and expensive labor costs, so they are suitable for just-in-time wear; if you don’t need it urgently, you can wait for the post-holiday sales, which is more cost-effective.
2. Investment in gold bars/accumulation funds
- It is inconvenient to operate when the market is closed. It is safer to open positions in batches after the holidays. Do not chase high prices or place heavy positions.
3. Gold recycling
- The reference price is 1,060-1,083 yuan/gram. Hurry and choose regular channels. Pay attention to deductions and quotations.
4. Leverage trading (T+D/futures)
- There is a high risk of gapping during the market break. If you are light or short position during the holidays, beware of the risk of opening price difference.
5. One sentence summary
The domestic market is closed and there is no operation, and the international rebound has bottomed out; after the holiday, we will first look at stabilization before making arrangements. Buy jewelry and other promotions and investments in batches, stability is king.
Tip: The gold price changes in real time. The data in this article are for reference only. Transactions are subject to the disk and store quotations.

Your skin will sound the alarm!
The secret of the 'immune alarm' revealed
Guangming Daily, Beijing, March 16 (Reporter Deng Hui) How does local infection trigger systemic immune response throughout the body? A joint team composed of Professor Liu Wanli from the School of Life Sciences of Tsinghua University, Professor Zhang Yonghui from the School of Pharmacy, and domestic experts from many fields have recently solved this immunological problem after more than ten years of scientific research. Research has found that the metabolic intermediate in skin fibroblasts, farnesyl pyrophosphate (hereinafter referred to as "FPP"), can transform into an "immune alarm" at critical moments, activating two signaling pathways to enhance systemic immune responses. Relevant research results provide new targets for the development of new vaccine adjuvants and the prevention and treatment of autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus.
The skin is the first barrier against pathogen invasion and environmental stimulation. Local infection or injury lesions are like "beacons" in the immune system, accurately transmitting danger signals to the entire body and mobilizing systemic immune responses. The mechanism behind this process has always been an unsolved mystery in the field of immunology. The answer to this question will not only deepen the understanding of the regulation of the immune system, but also be related to the analysis of the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus and the optimization of clinical intervention strategies.
In order to solve this problem, the joint team focused on the key metabolic network of the mevalonate pathway and gathered multidisciplinary forces such as immunology, metabolomics and systems biology. After more than ten years of systematic research, they finally identified and confirmed the "key messenger" in this pathway that transmits immune signals from local lesions to the whole body - FPP.
Research shows that FPP can serve as a key messenger linking local inflammation and systemic immunity, regulating biochemical center reactions and amplifying systemic humoral immune responses. Simply put, when the skin is infected by bacteria or exposed to strong ultraviolet rays, the skin's keratinocytes will initiate an emergency response, causing FPP to rapidly accumulate in the cells.
"This substance is an 'immune alarmin' emitted by cells. It will precisely bind to the intracellular domain of TRPV3 on the cell, just like a key opening a lock, allowing calcium ions to enter the cell, thereby activating two signaling pathways and prompting the cells to secrete two key substances, IL-6 and CCL20." According to team members, the two substances have a clear division of labor: the former can promote the differentiation of immune cells, and the latter recruits and promotes the movement of dendritic cells to lymph nodes. The combination of the two can significantly enhance the immune response of lymph nodes, not only allowing the body to produce more antibodies that can fight pathogens, but also forming immune memory, allowing the body to respond quickly the next time it encounters the same type of pathogen.
The team also found that aromatic substances in plants such as carvacrol and camphor can also enhance immunity through the same signaling pathway, which also provides scientific basis for the traditional saying that "aromatics ward off dirt".
"In the future, we will continue to delve into the details of this signaling pathway and explore its role in other immune diseases." Team members said that they will accelerate the clinical research of related adjuvants and targeted drugs, and explore more natural immune regulatory substances in combination with traditional aromatic Chinese medicine, so that the results of basic research can be truly transformed into clinical diagnosis and treatment solutions.
【Knowing is by my side】
Why basking in the sun is good for your health
Many people know that "more sun exposure is good for good health", but few people know the reason behind it - in fact, the essence of sun exposure is to "recharge" our immune system and enhance resistance.
The skin is the body’s largest “protective wall” and an “early warning station” for the immune system. When the skin is exposed to sunlight, it will produce an "alarm molecule" called farnesyl pyrophosphate, which sends an "alarm" to the body like lighting a beacon. Subsequently, a "channel" (TRPV3 channel) on the skin cells will open, and extracellular calcium ions will penetrate into the cells in large quantities, allowing the body to release substances that can speed up and strengthen the immune system, and the resistance will naturally increase.
However, don’t be greedy for too much sun exposure: Moderate exposure to the sun can gently activate the immune system and improve protection; however, exposure to too much sun for too long or too hard will cause the immune system to “overload” and cause inflammation, which may actually aggravate some autoimmune diseases (such as lupus erythematosus). The immune system itself of such patients is too “active” and will mistakenly attack their own body organs. This also just confirms what our ancestors said about the "golden mean". Too much is never enough, and immunity also needs to be balanced.
Produced by iQiyi, Yuewen Film and Television, Xinli TV, and Reverse Mapping, and produced by Carnival Culture Media, it is adapted from Remy's novel "Oldboy". Teng Huatao is the director, Wang Xiaohui is the director producer, Yang Bei is the producer, and Wang Xiaoyan, Liu Wenyang, Ma Hao is the chief producer, Zhang Xinyuan, Wang Shujun, Gao Yuan, and Ji Shi are the new producers, and Nie Chengshuai is the chief screenwriter. The 16-episode human crime drama "Evil" was officially announced today and will be broadcast exclusively on iQiyi Mist Theater on February 23.
The play stars Ren Suxi and Wang Xiao, Cai Wenjing is the guest star, Li Zefeng is the star, Wang Youjun and Dong Qing star, Ye Zuxin, Jie Bing, Lan Xiya, Li Mincheng are guest stars, Yue Yang, Wei Zixin, Yao Yiqi, Wang Daqi, Gao Shuguang starred in the film, as did Zhang Shulun, Zhu Jiaqi, Wang Runze, Ji Xiaofei, Xue Yubin, Gu Yufeng and Xu Guodong, bringing together many powerful actors. The official release trailer and group portrait posters have been simultaneously released recently. The series will be narrated with a small town mystery case, showing the perseverance of law enforcement and the struggles of ordinary people in human crimes, and deeply exploring the topic of the boundary between good and evil to the audience, which is thought-provoking.
The suspicions in the small town reflect complex human nature, and the diverse group portraits present the confrontation between good and evil.
"Eliminate Evil" tells the story of the intricate acquaintance society in the coastal town of Nuanhai Town, which was broken by a bag of drugs that disappeared inexplicably, and a "suicide crime" officially kicked off. Hu Wenjing (played by Ren Suxi), a female detective who is accidentally involved in a drug deal; Cheng Ken (played by Wang Xiao), an ordinary father who wants to save his daughter at any cost; Li Xiaoya (played by Cai Wenjing), an ambitious careerist who wants to escape from small town life; Wang Ping (played by Dong Qing), who is swallowed by drugs and has gone astray; how will the three best friends stage the ultimate tug of friendship and destiny? What kind of storm will the secretive Cheng Xiaodong (played by Li Zefeng) and the ruthless Ding Lai (played by Ye Zuxin) stir up? When the cocoon woven by desire and greed tightly traps everyone, who can truly escape from this battle between justice and humanity?
The trailer for this time starts with the sentence "Do you believe in fate" and asks the soul. The late night corpse burial, ceiling secrets and corridor fights culminate in silent climaxes, allowing the audience to glimpse the evil undercurrent hidden deep in the town. The mirror image confrontation between righteousness and evil between Hu Wenjing, who is searching for the truth, and Cheng Kencheng, who is gradually falling into the abyss, indicates that a game of human nature is quietly going on. As new hallucinogens flow into the town in the form of drinks and candies that are common in daily life, various complex criminal groups emerge one by one. Lucky graduate students, those who preach success, and speculators who want to take shortcuts. A series of immersive documentary shots interweave and capture the shadow of human nature. In the anti-drug war that is advancing at every level, how does every little person survive and make choices? The process from being eroded by drugs to going to murder is horrifying to think about, and the line "Who said drugs must be sold to drug addicts" at the end also leaves room for imagination that is horrifying to think about.
The eight portrait posters released simultaneously show the characters in a striking micro composition, with a shocking style. The poster uses a drug bag as the background and contains characters with different expressions. The intricate positioning clearly reveals the network of acquaintances in the small town where anti-drug and drug trafficking overlap. In the center of the picture, Hu Wenjing's cold, gun-holding gaze reveals determination to get to the bottom of the investigation; Cheng Ken holds pills in his mouth with a calm demeanor, and his simple appearance reveals the madness and helplessness heading towards the abyss; the other characters either stare at temptation, eyes full of desire, or have firm eyes, scrutinizing and contemplating, making this diverse group portrait of the confrontation between good and evil full of story suspense. A drug network is secretly woven in the border town. Although everyone who falls into the abyss of crime has a heart crushed by life, there are complicated motives behind it.
Behind the confrontation between good and evil is a shocking human crime, and the vivid and three-dimensional demeanor of the characters also clearly reveals the network of acquaintances in the small town where anti-drug and drug trafficking are intertwined. What kind of ups and downs will unfold in this small town human crime with "the devil around" is exciting.
The gold medal team builds a solid foundation of quality, and multi-line narrative depicts the overall picture of anti-drugs
An excellent work is inseparable from the ingenuity of the behind-the-scenes team. Liu Wenyang, who has created phenomenal hit dramas such as "The Son-in-law" and "Everyday Life", is the chief producer, and the famous director Teng Huatao, who has directed "Snail House" and "City Within the City", is in charge. A number of masterpieces of realism, which are extremely good at describing the complexity of human nature and observing social expressions; written by Nie Chengshuai, a new generation of powerful screenwriter of "The Basics of Genius", his strong plot and strong logical expression techniques will bring the ultimate immersive experience to the multi-line narrative in the story. The cast adds to the dramatic tension of the characters. Hu Wenjing, played by Ren Suxi, is both a low-level criminal police officer and a single mother. How she balances the challenges from family, workplace and social rules during the anti-drug process has become a major attraction. Cheng Ken, played by Wang Xiao, is curious about how she delicately interprets the character's inner hesitation and struggle and shows the gray areas of human nature when her daughter falls into the abyss of crime. In addition, the addition of acting actors such as Cai Wenjing, Li Zefeng, Wang Youjun, Dong Qing, and Ye Zuxin has given each character a distinctive symbol that is flesh-and-blood and non-facial. I believe that this "strong alliance" behind the scenes team will jointly enhance the quality of the story of "Extermination of Evil".
"When greed arises in a moment, thousands of sins arise." "Eliminating Evil" will take the investigation of the case as the creative theme, and use multi-line narrative techniques to show the police pursuit of the case represented by Hu Wenjing and Jin Longzheng (played by Wang Youjun), and the ordinary people represented by Cheng Ken, Li Xiaoya, and Wang Ping who were pushed into the abyss by fate. Multiple group images are intertwined to form a full picture of human crimes, revealing the struggle of human nature under the dilemma of desire. The play abandons suspended criminal narratives and uses calm, objective yet warm daily expressions to show the damage that drug networks have done to ordinary families and interpersonal relationships. The creative team uses a perspective close to public life to polish the anti-drug story into a crime story that directly touches human nature, with both realistic concerns and social significance. The different choices of each character in the play on the edge of good and evil also let people see behind this small town ecological picture, the lofty spirit of grassroots police officers who adhere to their duties and missions and are not afraid of sacrifice. They break through the single perspective of traditional criminal investigation dramas and use diverse expressions to explore the new value of crime themes.
When the battle between good and evil in a small town quietly begins, how will people on the edge of good and evil find a way out? How will this anti-drug game about human crimes unfold? The human crime drama "Extermination of Evil" will be launched at the iQiyi Mist Theater on February 23. We look forward to seeing you in Nuanhai Town.
According to the Financial Associated Press on March 16 (Editor Shi Zhengcheng), xAI, which is in the state of "tear down and rebuild", seems to have regarded financial intelligence as one of the focuses of development in the next stage, trying to grab a piece of the pie from competing products such as Anthropic and OpenAI.
As of press time, xAI has posted at least 20 expert recruitment positions in the financial field on its official website, covering positions in securities research, macro research, corporate finance, quantitative trading, cryptocurrency, etc. These experts are expected to "teach" Grok artificial intelligence how to perform financial modeling by providing a series of data, as well as engage in specific work in various financial segments.
Taking "Equity Research Specialist" as an example, the job description states, "You will leverage your deep expertise in capital markets, fundamental analysis, financial modeling, valuation and investment research to create a training environment that simulates the real world and provide high-quality model evaluation, accurate data annotation and detailed input to train and optimize our AI models."
To put it simply, this position mainly provides learning materials for AI, aiming to improve AI’s ability to write stock research reports. xAI requires applicants to have at least 2 years of buy-side or sell-side equity research experience with clear industry coverage responsibilities.
Similarly, “crypto market experts” are required to provide annotations, annotations, evaluations, and expert reasoning across text, voice, and video multimodalities to support model training and benchmarking.
According to a report from the Financial Associated Press last week, as 9 of the "11 Arhats" who co-founded xAI with Musk have left, the world's richest man admitted that xAI is in a state of reconstruction. He also hired two senior employees from the well-known AI programming company Cursor last week to initially show the company's next direction.
As worries about an AI investment bubble are rampant, top developers are increasingly focusing on exploring business opportunities in professional fields. Among them, the financial field with both willingness to pay and ability has become a "must battleground" for military strategists. Both Anthropic and OpenAI have released tools designed to simplify financial work such as market analysis and research reporting, and have even triggered panic selling by traditional software vendors.
For xAI, there is an urgent need to establish revenue growth points. Although the company was valued at $250 billion when it merged with SpaceX last month, most of xAI's revenue so far has come from related transactions in Musk's other ventures, including Tesla and SpaceX.
Returning to the topic of this article, industry elites who are about to apply for xAI’s “financial expert position” will face the leadership of a high school graduate.
It is reported that the person in charge of xAI’s training data is Diego Pasini. Information shows that Pasini received his high school diploma in 2023 and then entered the University of Pennsylvania to study computer science and economics. He entered the company after winning the "hackathon" organized by xAI in January 2025.
At a staff meeting last month, Pasini said that one of the current bottlenecks in developing Grok is training data. Currently Grok relies heavily on data from social network X.
