Wei Zhou Named Among Caijing Magazine's Top 50 Global Chinese Venture Capitalists

Yahoo10 hours ago
PALO ALTO, Calif., July 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Recently, the prestigious media platform Caijing Magazine officially unveiled its "Top 50 Global Chinese Venture Capitalists" list. Wei Zhou, Founding Managing Partner of Cyber Creation Ventures (CCV), earned a coveted spot on the list thanks to his exceptional investment achievements, global vision, and profound influence in the global venture capital ecosystem.
This recognition further cements Wei's status as a leading figure not only in the venture capital industry but also within the global Chinese business community. Last year, he was named among Forbes' "Top 100 Most Influential Global Chinese," a testament to his far-reaching contributions and leadership in shaping the future of innovation and entrepreneurship. His inclusion in Caijing Magazine's prestigious list this year once again underscores his vital role in driving global technological transformation and fostering cross-cultural collaboration.
In its announcement, Caijing Magazine remarked: "Within the global venture capital landscape, Chinese venture capitalists are redefining the flow of capital with their unique cross-cultural advantages and keen sense of innovation. Over the past three decades, these investors have skillfully navigated the complex waves of global capital, identifying critical signals of technological transformation. The groundbreaking applications and companies they have nurtured represent not only substantial returns but also a powerful value proposition from the global Chinese venture capital community to the world. From Silicon Valley to China, and from China to Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and back to Silicon Valley, they have both shaped and exported the 'China model,' playing a pivotal role in global technological and business revolutions. The influence of Chinese venture capitalists on the global stage is undeniable."
Wei has long been a champion of globalization in the investment community. Against the backdrop of de-globalization, he has repeatedly emphasized the importance of companies maintaining a global strategy to avoid the pitfalls of insular competition. He has proposed a new model of "Distributed Globalization 2.0," encouraging entrepreneurs to leverage the advantages accumulated over the past 40 years and, with the ingenuity and adaptability of the Chinese people, write a new chapter in globalization.
Wei believes that "Distributed Globalization 2.0" is the optimal strategy for navigating today's evolving environment. This model harnesses China's strengths in resources, talent, supply chains, and technology while integrating with local markets, cultures, and regulations to create a distributed system of collaboration that benefits from the comprehensive advantages of a shared platform. He identifies two key breakthrough directions for this model: intelligence and sustainability.
He stated: "Today may mark the beginning of a new era. At this critical juncture, both Chinese companies and individuals must break out of the confines of intense domestic competition and embrace the era of Globalization 2.0. By stepping out into the world and adopting new entrepreneurial models that emphasize distribution and localization, we can create new value. In this age of de-globalization, leveraging the many advantages China has built over the past four decades, and with the intelligence and flexibility of the Chinese people, we can achieve a 2.0 version of globalization. I believe this represents a massive opportunity for the next generation of Chinese entrepreneurs and young people."
Looking ahead, CCV will continue to partner with outstanding entrepreneurs worldwide to ignite the sparks of technological and industrial innovation, reshaping the global business landscape. The CCV team will also capitalize on the global resources accumulated from managing top-tier international venture capital funds and its current global footprint to provide robust support for Chinese teams entering the era of Global Entrepreneurship 2.0. Together, they aim to create transformative companies and applications that improve lives and redefine industries on a global scale.
Wei's repeated recognition by global platforms such as Forbes and Caijing Magazine highlights not only his influence in the venture capital world but also his unique role in bridging cultures, fostering innovation, and driving the global success of the Chinese entrepreneurial community. His leadership exemplifies the growing impact of global Chinese leaders in shaping the future of technology, business, and society.

Tensions Are Starting to Brew Over Waterways for US LNG Cargoes

One of the US largest exporters of liquefied natural gas, Venture Global Inc., is raising questions over how to share a common waterway with a planned neighbor — it's a move that underscores a coming bottleneck for shipping space in an energy sector that the Trump administration is supporting for increased exports. The US, already the biggest global exporter of the fuel, is on track to nearly double its current capacity with a massive buildout of six projects under construction in Texas and Louisiana. And even more are in advanced stages of development as President Donald Trump has made moves to increase the flow of cargoes from the US.

Helldivers 2 is the first PlayStation-published Xbox game

Arrowhead Game Studios' Helldivers 2 will make the jump to the Xbox Series X and S consoles on August 26th, costing $39.99. This is the first PlayStation-published title to launch on Xbox. The title will ship with cross play between all platforms. The cooperative PvE third-person shooter was an unexpected hit when it first launched simultaneously on PlayStation 5 and PC in early 2023. It soared in popularity on Steam, where it earned an 'overwhelmingly positive' rating, which flipped to 'overwhelmingly negative' when Sony introduced (then swiftly reversed) a decision to require a PSN login for PC players. Xbox's press release makes no mention of a PSN login, so it likely won't be required here. Helldivers 2 is a gem of a game that's high on hijinx. What initially seems like a serious sci-fi title often gives way to funny, emergent moments, thanks in part to its Strategem system, which requires you to input complex button combos while facing down swarms of enemies. There are a variety of missions you can take on against aliens, robots, and a newer Illuminate species. And, since it's a live-service title, the lore and the stakes are always evolving (and the developers often troll players). It's a fun world to be immersed in, even if you're just grinding the free battle pass for weapon upgrades. My former Polygon colleague Cass Marshall wrote some incredible Helldivers 2 coverage, which have the power to convince just about anyone that they were missing out on a good time. I mean, just look at these headlines below.

Baltimore City leaders call for end of BGE's 'Operation Pipeline' program, multi-year rate hikes

Baltimore City Council President Zeke Cohen and other city leaders are calling for a halt to Baltimore Gas and Electric's 'Operation Pipeline' program. The program aims to upgrade hundreds of miles of natural gas pipes and equipment across Maryland by replacing cast iron and bare steel pipes with new, more durable lines. In 2023, the Maryland Public Service Commission approved BGE's multi-year rate hike plan, which authorized a series of rate increases between 2024 and 2026. The plan, in part, will pay for the upgrades. But city leaders argue the program is driving up customer bills and increasing the company's profits. This isn't the first time city leaders have called for an end to the rate hikes. An analysis released by the Office of the People's Counsel in February found that spending on gas infrastructure is fueling the hikes, and projected even higher winter bills in the future if the company continues its current level of capital investment. The report says gas utilities will spend about $744 million on gas infrastructure in 2025. Shortly after the OPC's report was released, the Baltimore City Council passed a resolution calling on the PSC to stop the multi-year rate hikes, arguing that the infrastructure upgrades should not be paid for by taxpayers. Maryland sees rising utility costs BGE raised their rates on January 1, increasing the average residential gas bill by 9% and the electric bill by 7%. During the winter, Maryland households reported some of their highest gas bills ever. But BGE said that while the pipeline upgrades are a part of the cost increases, a 30% rise in natural gas prices over the past year, and increased spending on energy efficiency programs mandated by the state also play a factor.
