Domestic large models are accelerating from technology demonstrations to large-scale implementation. According to a comprehensive statistical analysis of public bidding data across the country from January to November 2025, leading cloud vendors in China have won 291 projects related to large models, with a total amount exceeding 2.1 billion yuan, marking that AI large models have become the core infrastructure for government and enterprise digital transformation.

In the fierce competition, Baidu Intelligent Cloud ranked first in the industry with 95 winning projects and a winning amount of 710 million yuan, demonstrating its significant advantages in industry large model implementation capabilities, ecological integration, and commercial maturity.

Government and Enterprise Demands Drive the Surge in Large Model Purchases

From the publicly disclosed winning projects, large model applications have deeply penetrated key sectors such as government affairs, finance, energy, manufacturing, transportation, and healthcare. Typical scenarios include:

- Government intelligent customer service and policy Q&A systems;   

- Bank compliance review and risk early warning models;   

- Power grid equipment failure prediction and inspection report generation;   

- Knowledge base construction and intelligent management of technical documents for industrial enterprises.

These projects generally require models to have high security, deep industry knowledge, private deployment capabilities, and seamless integration with existing IT systems, which perfectly match Baidu Intelligent Cloud's integrated delivery model of "Wenxin Large Model + Qianfan Platform + Industry Solutions."

Baidu Leads, Highlighting the "Technology-Scenario-Delivery" Closed-loop Advantage

Baidu Intelligent Cloud's leadership is not accidental:   

- Wenxin Large Model 5.0 was recently released, enhancing native multimodal and reasoning capabilities;   

- The Qianfan Large Model Platform has supported private deployment for over 400 enterprises;   

- With in-depth experience in Smart Cloud + Large Models + Industry Know-how, it has developed standardized solutions in energy and finance sectors.

By comparison, Alibaba Cloud, Huawei Cloud, and Tencent Cloud, although strong in certain regions or industries, currently rank behind in terms of project numbers and total amounts.

The 2.1 Billion Yuan is Just the Beginning, Large Models Enter the "Performance Delivery" Era

AIbase believes that the 2.1 billion yuan in winning bids is just the tip of the iceberg of large model industrialization. As "Artificial Intelligence +" action plans are implemented in various regions, the scale of government and enterprise large model procurement is expected to double in 2026. The market will no longer focus only on parameters and rankings but will instead pay attention to delivery efficiency, measurable ROI, and long-term maintenance capabilities — precisely the moat that Baidu Intelligent Cloud has established now.

When large models move from "showcasing" to "signing contracts," the second half of China's AI journey truly begins.
