智通财经APP获悉，高盛发布研报称，中国游戏与娱乐板块在2025年股价经历了广泛上涨，大中型股涨 幅达50至80%(相较恒生中国企业指数的26%)，并在2026年初延续强劲表现，部分股票涨幅高达30%(相 较相关指数约3-5%)。该行认为此次上涨一半由估值扩张、一半由每股盈利增长所驱动。 高盛选出的核心买入股份，包括腾讯、网易、快手-W(01024)、哔哩哔哩(BILI.US)、腾讯音乐。该行认 为腾讯的核心业务(游戏+广告)将继续保持每年低至中十位数的增长，主要受惠于常青游戏的持续力、 关键产品管线，以及广告生态系统在变现与人工智能上的助力。该行继续认为，腾讯是人工智能应用的 重要代理，也是投资者的核心持股。该行维持腾讯"买入"评级，下调目标价由770港元降至752港元。 (2)海外市场扩张加速：中国游戏发行商及内容平台(以腾讯控股(00700)、网易-S(09999)为代表)正在加 快出海步伐。中国游戏厂商的优势在于资本与人才密集、技术能力突出以及高效的持续内容升级，这些 因素正推动其全球市场份额从当前约15%水平进一步提升。 (3)人工智能应用的赋能与颠覆方面，高盛指AI不仅开始降低生产与人力成本，提高 ...

该行认为，全栈能力是Agent时代能否脱颖而出的关键变量 举例对比：(1)谷歌1月11日宣布Gemini将赋能沃尔玛超市，升级沃尔玛用户购物体验，本质是通过UCP 协议连接外部零售商的"开放联盟"模式;(2)豆包此前发布的AI手机则遇到了支付API难题，在后续更新中 限制了支付宝等金融类应用的使用，该行认为是生态不完善导致AI能力无法充分发挥;(3)阿里本身就拥 有完善的线上&线下购物生态，结合Qwen大模型，上层直接打通淘宝商品库、支付宝支付体系及本地 生活服务体系。这种深度整合有望解决AIAgent落地中最棘手的"决策信任"与"支付断点"难题。此外， 全栈优势有望带来广阔Agent发挥空间。千问"任务助理"功能在App和Web端开始定向邀测，该功能具备 类人化的多步骤规划能力，覆盖应用开发、Office办公、咨询调研及生活办事等核心场景，支持一键处 理报表整理、研报撰写及小工具生成等复杂任务，商业化变现路径渐显清晰。 智通财经APP获悉，广发证券发布研报称，深度整合有望解决AIAgent落地中最棘手的"决策信任"与"支 付断点"难题。此外，全栈优势有望带来广阔Agent发挥空间。该行重视国内算力产业链建设 ...

在移动互联网时代，中国 超过 5 亿 MAU 的有 10 个之多，AI 时代超过 5 亿 MAU 的 Super App 大 概率就 3-4 个。 晚点专栏作者 丨 昆仑万维创始人周亚辉 所以你会看到过去两个季度美股 Big7 除了谷歌，其他包括微软、Meta、亚马逊、苹果都不涨或者都在 跌，所以长期来看，如果 X.ai 用户量起不来的话，谷歌一定还是会比特斯拉市值要大。所以张一鸣不成 为中国首富谁成为中国首富。 2024 年初我在媒体上总结 2023 年的时候，说字节 2023 年的大模型战略也就 60 分，但我同时补充一 句，以张一鸣、朱文佳这些人的能力，只要启动调整，最多 2 个月时间，就很快能够到 100 分。果然如 此，字节在过去两年的 AI 战略展现出极强的前瞻性与落地效率，我对字节 AI 2024 年的 AI 方面的战略 规划打 120 分，2025 年更高，可以到 180 分。 下面我们来演习下中国的 AI Native Super App 之战，在这之前我想先表达下我对一位企业家前辈的敬 意，2025 年我最尊敬的企业家是马云马老师，他让我看到老骥伏枥，志在千里的现代版。非常 Respect ...

2026年刚开年，AI就来炸场了。 前阵子，《互联网大厂模拟器》和《赛博徒步：生死鳌太线》两款文字游戏突然爆火。很多人都发现，两款产品皆是由一两个创作者借助AI工具快速跑 出来的，甚至有的开发者完全是游戏研发小白，却能在短短一周里将创意落地。 也就是说，原本受限于人力、编程等问题的独立开发者，已经可以用AI的方式来实现创意了。这不得不让人重新重视起AI在游戏行业的应用。 互联网大厂模拟器 放到更大的视角，近期国内AI产业也极其热闹。资本市场，智谱和MiniMax前后脚赴港上市，股价表现超出市场预期。有人认为，AI行业正从融资竞争步 入价值兑现，应用商业化的节奏正在提速； 产研方面，1月10号的AGI-Next前沿峰会上，27岁的腾讯首席AI科学家姚顺雨在入职腾讯后首次公开露面，与智谱创始人唐杰、月之暗面创始人杨植麟、 阿里 Qwen技术负责人林俊旸探讨大模型的下一个范式，大家都认为，AI的发展正在分化。他还提到，某种程度上，中国AI产业在商业、产业设计，以及 工程能力等方面已经做得比美国好了。 这让更多人意识到，与前两年刚刚爆发的AI概念热潮不同，本轮AI浪潮已经迈入了新阶段，它正以前所未有的速度渗透进应用场 ...

Summary of Key Points from the Conference Call Industry Overview - The report focuses on the structural changes in the global AI industry as of early 2026, particularly highlighting the divergence in AI application markets between China and the United States [1][1]. Macro Trends and Market Divergence - The AI application market in China and the U.S. is experiencing a stark contrast, described as "ice and fire" [1][1]. - U.S. software stocks have significantly declined since January 2026, primarily due to concerns raised by Anthropic's release of an Agent product capable of fully automated workflows, which has disrupted market perceptions of software development costs and value [1][1]. AI Application Ecosystem - The Chinese AI application ecosystem is more inclined towards "closed-loop integration," with leading companies leveraging their own traffic and ecosystems to rapidly implement Agent functionalities [2][2]. - Since August 2025, upstream computing power (chips, devices, storage) has shown strong performance, while downstream application sectors (internet, software companies) have exhibited weakness [2][2]. Technology Evolution and Model Landscape - Basic models are entering a linear growth phase, with the first tier consisting of Anthropic, OpenAI, and Gemini, while the second tier includes Grok, Zhiyu, and Kimi [3][3]. - Domestic models like Tongyi Qianwen are lagging, while Deepseek V4 is expected to challenge the first tier [3][3]. - There has been no breakthrough leap in capabilities, but overall abilities are steadily improving [4][4]. - Multimodal capabilities are becoming critical, with models like Google’s NanoBanana enhancing Agent performance in various applications [4][4]. - Vertical models are shifting towards a "post-training + reinforcement learning" approach, internalizing expert reasoning rather than relying on external retrieval systems [4][4]. Comparison of Domestic and International AI Applications - In China, companies like ByteDance, Tencent, and Alibaba are integrating AI into their ecosystems effectively, with Alibaba's Tongyi Qianwen being recognized as the first true consumer-facing Agent [5][5]. - In contrast, international players like Anthropic focus on programming workflows, while OpenAI and Google are still primarily chatbot-oriented, lacking in task planning capabilities [5][5]. Investment Logic and Recommendations - Upstream sectors such as storage (DRAM/HBM/SSD), semiconductor equipment, and power equipment are expected to benefit from the shift in AI inference demand and TSMC's planned capital expenditure increase of 30%-40% in 2026 [6][6]. - Platform companies that integrate ecosystems, models, and traffic are highlighted, with Alibaba and Tencent being key players in China [6][6]. - Recommendations for terminal scene companies include Meitu, Roblox, and Reddit, while ToB tool companies like Adobe and Figma are noted for their collaborations with large model companies [7][7]. Core Judgments and Outlook - The year 2026 is termed the "third year of the Agent," with high market premiums but uncertain outcomes [7][7]. - The core competitiveness of Agents is shifting from "general dialogue" to "automated workflow execution," particularly in vertical fields like programming and healthcare [7][7]. - Domestic AI applications are advancing rapidly in consumer markets due to closed ecosystems, while international markets are more disruptive in B2B workflow automation [7][7]. - Storage demand is transitioning from training to inference, with SSDs expected to become the foundational infrastructure for the next generation of Agents [7][7]. - The document emphasizes a critical turning point in the AI industry from "model competition" to "application implementation," with clear divergence in paths between China and the U.S. [7][7].
