Some time ago, I switched my Chinese language processing model to DeepSeek. After using it for a while, I found that it is not verbose, works efficiently, and most importantly, it is very affordable.

Why did this change happen? My wife said that DeepSeek's content is of higher quality than Doubao and Qianwen. I paid special attention to it afterward and even asked GPT about it. Indeed, in terms of Chinese corpus and context understanding, DeepSeek's capabilities are very strong.
After using it for a period, I really think it’s quite good.
So why are there very few articles about DeepSeek from various media outlets? The reason is simple: DeepSeek doesn’t even have a decent marketing department. I estimate they probably have no marketing budget at all.
Therefore, whenever other domestic models are launched, there are overwhelming test articles and soft promotions, all driven solely by money.
We are all individuals living in an information-rich environment, and often, blocking out noise is not that easy.
