IT之家 10 月 1 日消息，据《金融时报》今日报道，腾讯已与甲骨文签署其最大海外租赁协议，在东南亚多个甲骨文数据中心获取约 10 万块先进 AI 芯片。腾讯和甲骨文均未回应置评请求。
知情人士称，腾讯今年同意一项五年期租赁，涉及东南亚多个甲骨文数据中心。交易估值约 70 亿美元（IT之家注：现汇率约合 470.18 亿元人民币），首付约 30%。腾讯计划将这部分算力用于推进 AI 模型和智能体工具的开发。
据称，字节跳动和阿里巴巴仍是东南亚数据中心最大客户。此类租赁协议在美国规则下被允许，也可能给出英伟达在中国无法获取的先进芯片。中国科技巨头和前沿 AI 实验室正利用这些资源，用于模型训练等任务。
公司数据表明，腾讯第二季度资本支出同比增 176% 至 530 亿元人民币，用于 AI 基础设施和算力资源预付款。腾讯还招聘更多顶级人才，重组基础设施和数据部门。

On October 1, Chinese tech news outlet IT之家 reported that Tencent has inked its largest overseas lease deal with Oracle, securing access to approximately 100,000 advanced AI chips across multiple data centers in Southeast Asia. Both Tencent and Oracle have not responded to requests for comment.
According to informed sources, Tencent agreed to a five-year lease earlier this year covering several Oracle data centers in the region. The transaction is valued at around $7 billion (approximately 470.18 billion RMB), with a down payment of about 30%. Tencent plans to use this computing power to accelerate the development of its AI models and intelligent agent tools.
It is noted that ByteDance and Alibaba remain the largest clients of these Southeast Asian data centers. Such leasing agreements are permissible under US regulations and may provide access to advanced NVIDIA chips not available in China. Chinese tech giants and leading AI labs are leveraging these resources for tasks like model training.
Company data indicates that Tencent's capital expenditure in the second quarter jumped by 176% year-over-year to 53 billion RMB, primarily for AI infrastructure and prepaid computing resources. The company has also intensified its recruitment of top talent and reorganized its infrastructure and data departments.
