    Grabbing Zuckerberg's Hand: Can Fourier Reverse Its 8 Billion Valuation Long-Term Predicament?

    Fourier and Meta built a humanoid robot prototype codenamed Max in about three months. Meta says the collaboration focuses on internal research and experimentation and that there are no plans to sell it; procurement volume and commercial revenue were not disclosed. The article reviews Fourier's roughly 300 humanoid robot shipments in 2025, its pre-money valuation of 8 billion yuan, and its progress in preparing for the STAR Market, and points out that prototype development, scale manufacturing, and platform licensing are three different businesses. The author believes Meta bought development time and Fourier gained validation from a tech giant, but neither side directly answered the commercialization question.

    Unitree G1 Developer Edition robot withdraws from first CMG World Robot Mount Tai Climbing Competition due to overheating

    The first CMG World Robot Mount Tai Climbing Competition kicked off in Tai'an. A Unitree G1 Developer Edition robot, the same model featured in the Spring Festival Gala, withdrew due to an overheating failure during the climb and was carried down the mountain by staff on a stretcher. The course is 3.9 kilometers long with more than 3,100 steps, and other robots on site climbed unsteadily and needed towing assistance to finish the competition.
