In a brightly lit office in Nanjing's National Advertising Industrial Park, Zou Xu stares at the animated short film that has just been rendered on the screen and breathes a long sigh of relief. Two years ago, he was a UX (user experience) designer for a foreign company, but today he is one of the first entrepreneurs to be admitted to the OPC community at the Geeks' Wharf in Jianye Hi-Tech Zone.
At the end of last year, Zou Xu inadvertently learned of the Jianye Hi-tech Zone is about to carry out "one person animation" - Jianye Geek Dock OPC community's first digital entertainment AI creation camp activities, he communicated with the AI community partners, and then enrolled together.
During 48 hours of extreme creation, Zou Xu utilized AI video generation tools to create the Cybernetic short film "Jianye New Year's Day・Light Track", which incorporates elements of landmarks such as the Nanjing Eye and the Twin Towers of the Youth Olympic Games. The clever fusion of urban culture and digital aesthetics in the film won unanimous approval from the judges. In the end, "Jianye New Year's Day - Light Tracks" won the second prize.
After the competition, the Geek Wharf OPC community operation team took the initiative to dock resources and help him obtain free arithmetic support. With the help of the operation team, only twenty days later, Zou Xu registered and established Nanjing Sequence Technology Co., Ltd (hereinafter referred to as "Sequence Technology"), which officially settled in the OPC community of Geek Wharf in Jianye Hi-Tech Zone.
"If it wasn't for this AI creation camp, I might still be doing traditional UI design." Zou Xu confessed, "I harvested the second prize in the first time I came to the Geek Dock competition, and I think this is my 'lucky place'."
"Our company now has four partners, and our main business includes AI video production and AI training, etc. Recently, we've also been exploring AI manga theater." Zou Xu told Ye.
With the solid business ability, as well as in the creation of the camp in the accumulation of technical solutions and works of endorsement, Sequence Technology landed in the same month, quickly signed a well-known educational institutions from the city's IP design and UI interface design orders, ushered in the "open door".
"This order at that time the party wanted an IP image, we tried to make one with AI, and found that the effect is much better than the traditional manual design and production, so we decided to use this AI design to the proposal, and the result was immediately passed."
Shortly after taking the first order, Sequence Technology took another advertising campaign for a well-known domestic pharmaceutical company.
"Generally using AI to produce a short film of about 1 minute, including communication and modification with the A party, the entire order cycle is about half a month, compared with the traditional production methods, the efficiency is greatly improved." Zou Xu introduced, "With the explosive popularity of AIGC tools, 'AI +' is becoming the new wind mouth of content entrepreneurship, we currently have several other collaborations in the pipeline, which are also AI-related."
Zou Xu's entrepreneurial story is a vivid epitome of the OPC community's model of "attracting talent through competition and promoting creation through utilization" in Jianye Hi-Tech Zone.
Since the park launched the construction of a number of OPC communities such as the Geek Dock and Model Law Academy in 2025, it has successfully organized developer and geek creation challenges such as the Digital Entertainment AI Creation Camp and the Hackathon, with a cumulative total of more than 100 participants;Attracting and nurturing nearly 30 high-growth digital creative and AI technology companiesThere are many "super individuals" whose revenues exceeded one million dollars in a short period of time.
These OPC communities are not incubators in the traditional sense, but rather "growth gas pedals" deeply embedded in the regional digital economy industry chain. Their core objective is to provide full-cycle support from "0 to 1" to "N" for entrepreneurs with technical or content creation capabilities - not only solving basic problems such as office space and computing power costs, but also linking head enterprise resources, university intelligence, policy tools and real market demand. The core objective of the program is to provide full-cycle support from "0 to 1" to "N" for entrepreneurs with technology or content creation capabilities - not only solving basic problems such as office space and computing power costs, but also linking up with the resources of head enterprises, the intelligence of universities, policy tools, and the real market demand, so that "one-person companies" can participate in the industrial cycle.
The rapid and steady development of the OPC community confirms the feasibility of the "AI+individual creators+industry platform" model, and also highlights Jianye District's forward-looking layout in cultivating new productivity in digital content.
As the core area of Nanjing's data element marketization reform, Jianye District has built the country's first provincial and municipal integrated public data platform, bringing together high-quality data sets in the fields of finance, transportation, culture and tourism, andIssuance of $30 million in "modulus vouchers"Supporting companies to call on data and arithmetic.
Meanwhile, Jianye Hi-Tech Zone has also introduced a special policy to provide OPC enterprises with the highest5 million R&D subsidy, 2 million arithmetic support and talent housing guaranteeIn order to realize "elements accessible, scene visible, growth can be expected".
