路透:微软过去五年关闭至少 15 家中国分支机构,AI 出海业务成留存关键

火星财经消息,据路透社报道,受中美关系紧张、中国推动国产软件替代及美国出口管制等多重因素影响,微软过去五年已关闭至少 15 家中国分支机构及合资企业,正执行战略收缩。2023 年公司内部曾考虑退出中国市场,因部分高管认为“承担过多地缘政治风险而经济回报有限”,但最终未执行。微软 2024 年披露中国业务仅占其全球营收约 1.5%。报道称,微软最终决定继续留在中国,主要原因是已开辟出一条盈利路径——为字节跳动、Shein 等出海中国企业提供 Azure 云及 AI 服务,帮助其在海外市场合规运营。此外,公司认为保留在华业务对获取中国工程人才仍具战略意义。但分析师质疑该 AI 业务模式的可持续性:该服务依赖 OpenAI 等第三方模型,且中国企业已越来越多采用 Kimi 等国产替代模型,性能相当而成本更低。微软在华研发布局也正收缩。其前身微软亚洲研究院已陆续在温哥华、新加坡及东京设立新实验室。2024 年公司曾向 1000 名顶尖工程师提供调往美国及其他三国的工作机会,仅约三分之一接受,多数资深工程师转投国内高校及科技企业。微软发言人回应称公司将继续致力于中国市场,但未就具体决策细节置评。字节跳动及 Shein 未回应相关询问。

The Bank of Korea has released a regulatory proposal suggesting that personal stablecoin transactions exceeding $10,000 should be limited to transfers from verified wallets.

According to Mars Finance, the legal team of the Bank of Korea has published a research paper titled "Regulatory Scheme for Foreign Remittance Transactions Targeting Stablecoins," proposing regulatory recommendations for large-scale stablecoin transactions. The paper, referencing current South Korean foreign exchange control regulations, proposes constraints on stablecoin transfers exceeding $10,000 between individuals, requiring such transactions to be conducted only between officially certified wallets, along with a pre-reporting mechanism. The institution acknowledges that there are technical obstacles to fully controlling unregistered wallets, but due to anti-money laundering compliance requirements, it is necessary to strengthen restrictions on large-scale cross-border stablecoin fund flows. South Korean regulators have previously repeatedly stated the need to improve the monitoring system for cross-border crypto asset transactions using non-custodial wallets; this paper further refines and implements the regulatory approach.
