Zhuimi (追觅) Executive Yu Hao Makes Bold Claims Again: Aiming for a Trillion in Three Years, After Once Challenging Jensen Huang and Elon Musk

Zhuimi (追觅) executive Yu Hao (余浩) has set off fresh headlines by reportedly declaring an audacious goal — reaching a trillion in revenue within three years. It has been reported that Yu made the claim in public remarks this week, repeating a pattern of high-profile rhetoric: sources say he previously challenged industry titans such as Jensen Huang of NVIDIA and Elon Musk on matters of AI and strategy. Bold talk. But is it realistic?

Background: who is talking and why it matters

Zhuimi, known in China for consumer robotics and smart-home appliances, is not a household name in the West the way Huawei or Tencent are, but it sits in a sector that has seen rapid global expansion. Reportedly, Yu’s comments are part of a broader push to burnish the company’s global ambitions and attract attention from investors and partners. It has been reported that the “trillion” target refers to yuan, which would translate into tens of billions of U.S. dollars annually — an extraordinary jump for a company of Zhuimi’s size.

Geopolitical and market context

Ambition alone won’t change hardware and chip realities. China’s tech firms face an evolving geopolitical landscape: U.S. export controls on advanced AI chips and broader trade frictions have narrowed suppliers and raised costs for Chinese manufacturers aiming to scale AI-driven products. Can Zhuimi overcome supply-chain bottlenecks, intellectual-property barriers and fierce domestic and global competition to hit a trillion in three years? Skeptics point to those headwinds; supporters say aggressive targets signal confidence and help secure talent and deals.

It has been reported that Yu’s previous public confrontations with figures like Jensen Huang and Elon Musk were at least partly rhetorical — meant to position Zhuimi as an aspirational challenger in AI and robotics. Whether that posture will translate into the kind of growth Yu envisions remains an open question, and one that will be watched closely amid the broader contest over AI leadership between China and the West.
