I really doubt Deepseek is subsidised. It's roughly the same price everywhere you look. Deepseek is using the Huawei hardware (as far as I managed to understand from various articles) and hence the savings.
I'd do 10 years even for 20 mil if that is what it takes to make sure my 2 kids and my wife are set.
I won't be able to earn that much in a decade anyway.
The law is about what he is spending. If I go and pay for ads on my own initiative, he doesn't need to declare it just like Basescu didn't declare all the stuff NGOs paid for him back in the days.
