DeepSeek's achievements have made open-source development a focal point at Shanghai's Global Developers Conference. 

MIIT reported that China ranks second globally in open-source contributors, with over 9.4 million developers and Chinese projects accounting for 17 percent of the global total. 

The rise in high-quality open-source large models and projects is boosting the AI industry's growth. In his keynote, Harry Shum highlighted that open-sourcing models like 

DeepSeek has shifted China from a beneficiary to a significant contributor in the global open-source community. The second edition of GDC continues to foster connections 

among developers, funding, and markets, reinforcing China's growing influence in the tech world.
