Yingke learned that Chongqing Dawa Hezhi Imaging Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Dawa Technology") announced the completion of a new round of financing of nearly 100 million yuan. This round of financing was led by Yicun Capital and Baojiehui Innovation Fund, and the old shareholders Qifu Capital and Chongqing Yongchuan State - owned Assets Platform continued to follow - up invest.

Founded in 2023 and headquartered in Chongqing, Dawa Technology is the first professional - level AI content creation platform in China to achieve a commercial closed - loop, and it has established a full - chain video AI ecosystem covering "production + trading + fulfillment". In 2025, Dawa Technology's revenue exceeded 100 million yuan, with a three - year compound growth rate of nearly 300%, and its AI platform achieved large - scale revenue.

Dawa Technology's core barrier is built on an extremely scarce 120TB exclusive film - grade structured dataset. This dataset contains more than 300 types of annotation elements such as shot - level, optical - level, and performance - level, with a granularity accurate to the scene level. Different from general models that rely on publicly available finished results, Dawa Technology's data comes from the real shooting processes of more than 200 top - tier commercial projects.

Lu Qi, the founder, told Yingke that traditional datasets often only have a simple mapping of "input text - output video", while Dawa Technology's data contains in - depth decision - making information that can teach AI "how to create good content".

"The creation results can only teach AI to imitate, while the creation process can teach AI to think and judge. Public data only contains 'good results', while Dawa Technology's data includes rejected cases, compromise solutions, and director's annotations. These 'negative samples' are also core elements for AI to understand the logic of commercial trade - offs and characters." Lu Qi introduced.

In the professional video field, the importance of encapsulation ability has surpassed the model ability itself. In response to the pain points of general models such as vague instructions, unstable results, and inability to understand professional jargon, Dawa Technology has built an intermediate - layer professional encapsulation ability, including a seven - dimensional quality assessment system, a knowledge graph of the film and television industry, and classic storyboard logic. By injecting industry know - how into the model, it enables AI to understand the standard of "good videos" and ensures that the output content meets commercial needs.

The FilmOS content industrial AI platform under the company can directly transform a creative requirement into a complete execution plan including storyboards, AI materials, budgets, and shooting schedules. At the same time, the team can work collaboratively with multiple AI assistants in a shared space, allowing AI to participate in the whole - process creative decision - making. In addition, every collaboration process is recorded, gradually forming the team's own creative style and methods.

In the market, currently in the high - budget film and television industrial market, FilmOS can shorten the pre - project preparation cycle from 4 - 6 weeks to 3 - 5 days, improve the budget accuracy by 60%, significantly reduce the risk of over - budget, and use AI to improve the matching degree of recommended suppliers. In the medium - scale content production market, Dawa Technology's AI automated production process can reduce the production cost of a single short drama by 40%, and significantly shorten the production cycle on the basis of ensuring stable content output.

The Yongchuan Technology Film Studio operated by Dawa Technology is a high - quality virtual shooting studio in China with a utilization rate of over 90%. It is not only a production facility for film and television production but also a "data factory" for Dawa Technology to continuously attract customers and accumulate data. The "golden data" generated by the studio, including the director's decision - making logic, the photographer's shooting techniques, and the producer's management experience, will re - enter the FilmOS platform. After cleaning and annotation, it becomes new fuel for training the model, forming a self - reinforcing "data flywheel".

It is worth noting that Dawa Technology positions itself as an "industry router" rather than a simple SaaS tool. This positioning stems from its deep connection with key nodes in the industrial chain. As the operator of a national - level digital asset infrastructure, the company has participated in the formulation of 4 national standards, deeply bound more than 160 ecological enterprises, thousands of registered directors and actors, and more than 30,000 production suppliers, building a strong ecological barrier.

After this round of financing, Dawa Technology will continue to iterate its professional video vertical AI model with 30 billion parameters and accelerate the commercial application of FilmOS in the field of professional content creation.
