Quantitative giants showcase their strength again: billion-dollar private equity funds achieve over 56% returns by 2025, DeepSeek V4 ready to launch

2026-01-14 07:40:16

【CoinPush】Recently, an interesting piece of data has been circulating in the industry—Liang Wenfeng’s Fantasia Quant performed remarkably in 2025, with an average return of 56.55%. Among quantitative private equity firms managing over 10 billion yuan, it ranks second, only behind Lingjun Investment with a return of 73.51%.

What does this achievement indicate? Fantasia Quant’s current management scale has already surpassed 70 billion yuan. Looking back three years, the fund’s average return was 85.15%; looking back five years, the cumulative average return reached 114.35%. This is not just a impressive performance report, but more importantly, it reflects the team’s solid strength in quantitative strategies and risk control.

Many people have noticed a detail—the income from Fantasia Quant has provided sufficient R&D funding support for Liang Wenfeng’s other project, DeepSeek. Fantasia Quant was established in 2008, when Liang Wenfeng was still studying Information and Communication Engineering at Zhejiang University. This hedge fund has been rooted in mathematics, computing, and AI since its inception. In 2019, its asset management scale broke through 10 billion yuan, and in 2021, it once surged to a trillion yuan level.

In the AI field, DeepSeek has been active. The latest news says that the V4 generation new model will be unveiled in February. This version is highly anticipated and has significantly improved programming capabilities. Industry insiders believe that this release could cause a considerable impact on the existing AI competitive landscape.

Whether 56 points is good or not still depends on the subsequent performance; it's too early to say anything now. Liang Wenfeng is really good at making money, balancing both quantitative methods and AI. With a scale of 70 billion, DeepSeek isn't afraid of burning money anymore. Still the same point—beautiful returns are great, but controlling drawdowns is the key. Lingjun's 73 points are truly impressive; Huansquare can't catch up. Is the ceiling for quantitative funds just like this? Are there any dark horse private equity firms? DeepSeek's subsequent financing is probably secured.

Damn, this guy Liang Wenfeng is really incredible. Using quantitative funds to support DeepSeek, and now AI is boosting quantitative strategies in return. I really didn't expect this closed-loop play.

56%? Or the second one? Lingjun really nailed it. --- 700 billion scale can still achieve such stable returns, this is true strength. --- Liang Wengfeng is burning gold for DeepSeek, no wonder they've been so active recently. --- Five-year average return of 114%? Need to review the data carefully to see if it can be replicated. --- Quantitative private funds really make money. Compared to my fund... forget it, no need to mention. --- Wait, is DeepSeek V4 coming? AI is about to rise again. --- Huanfang is indeed impressive; their funding support system is still too amateur compared to ours retail investors. --- Among private funds with over 10 billion, they still rank second, indicating this system is not built casually. --- Having money for R&D and investments shows a truly different vision.

Alright, I just want to know, can 56 points really hold up a 70 billion market?

Liang Wenfeng's move in this game is truly brilliant. The profits from quantification were directly invested into DeepSeek, and he can turn around and unleash a big move. This is the real closed-loop system.
