The AI-powered smart hardware venture “Weiguang Dianliang,” founded by Song Ziwei, has recently secured more than 100 million yuan in Pre-A round financing. This round was co-led by Sequoia China and BlueRun Ventures, with participation from several other institutions, and included follow-on investment from existing shareholder Unity Ventures. The fresh capital will be earmarked for talent recruitment and R&D initiatives. This funding milestone solidifies the startup’s commitment to developing a suite of smart hardware products centered around AI-driven fashion agents. Its inaugural AI-native fashion device is expected to be a “smart mirror” designed to seamlessly integrate into everyday high-frequency scenarios, offering tailored fashion recommendations and services. Prior to launching her venture, Song Ziwei honed her skills at leading firms vivo and Li Auto, showcasing remarkable execution capabilities in her entrepreneurial journey—having closed an angel round of financing just five months prior. At present, the company boasts a fully assembled core team of seasoned professionals.
