A report released at the 13th China Online Audio-Visual Conference said that in 2025, AI-generated video and audio outputs exceeded 2 billion in total, more than 14 times the 2024 figure.

The survey found that more than half of users had encountered AI-generated audio or video content, and over 40 percent said they found it novel and interesting.

Looking ahead, Longzhong Information analyst Chu Yingbin said that as geopolitical tensions ease, international crude oil is generally bearish, while on the domestic demand side there is little holiday support, parts of the south have entered the rainy season, and demand has not shown clear improvement.

On the supply side, inventories across China remain relatively high, stock is being worked off slowly as demand softens, the market is still in a supply-over-demand pattern, and gasoline and diesel prices are expected to keep falling.
