LTD. 於香港上市（香港交易所：9880）。根據協議，優必選承諾促使其母公司及母公司所屬集團不在日本就上述產品委任其他經銷商，並僅透過 Bitcoin Japan 向日本供應該等產品。 該協議將推進 Bitcoin Japan 於 9 月 17 日公布、並於 10 月 1 日開展的實體人工智能業務，為指定機械人產品、相關部署服務及特定數據權利建立合約框架。Bitcoin Japan 擬發展實際營運業務，初期專注於日本製造業及物流業的應用。各項計劃仍須視乎產品是否準備就緒、適用認證、客戶需求及資金情況而定。 6 指定產品系列 另包括升級及後繼產品 首日 日本客戶查詢轉介至 Bitcoin Japan 自簽署之日起 36 個月 獨家經銷期 由首款機型獲認證起計 3 規劃中的收入支柱 銷售 • 機械人即服務 • 數據 「人工智能正從螢幕走進實體世界。新一輪工業革命將由智能機械推動，讓它們在工廠、倉庫及企業中執行實際工作。 我們與優必選簽訂協議，是在日本建立實體人工智能營運業務的一步。我們計劃將機械人經銷、部署服務、經常性收入機會，以及來自實際應用場景的人工智能數據結合起來。 我們不僅投資人工智能的未來，更希望推動這個未來在現實中發揮作用。」 Phillip Lord Bitcoin Japan Corporation 行政總裁 獨家權利及合約範圍 指定產品包括 Walker S2、Walker Tienkung、Tienkung Dex、Sky Walker、Walker C1 及 Cruzr S2，以及協議所界定的升級版本及後繼產品。根據協議，在獨家經銷期內，優必選集團向日本客戶供應指定產品，均須經由 Bitcoin Japan 進行，包括向現有客戶追加供貨，以及滿足全球或區域性安排下的需求，惟須受協議條款規限。 協議自簽署時生效。自協議簽署及訂金支付後，優必選將不會就指定產品在日本委任其他經銷商，並會將日本客戶的查詢轉介予 Bitcoin Japan，且僅透過 Bitcoin Japan 向日本客戶供貨，惟涉及現有客戶的若干情況除外。在取得認證前，Bitcoin Japan 將在日本供應產品，用於日本法律允許的研究、實驗、數據收集、示範及其他用途。36 個月的獨家經銷期由首款機型 Walker C1 符合指定的日本合規及認證條件之日起計。維持獨家經銷權須符合雙方約定的表現要求及其他合約條件。 查詢 Bitcoin Japan 現歡迎日本的大學、研究機構、公共機構及企業，就 Walker S2 及其他指定優必選機型提出查詢。在完成日本認證前，機械人可供用於日本法律允許的研究、實驗、數據收集及示範用途；更廣泛的商業部署將於取得認證後展開。 聯絡電郵： [email protected] 優必選概覽 優必選業務背景資料 並非 Bitcoin Japan 收入 人民幣 5.903 億元 約 141 億日圓 2026 年上半年收入 優必選集團人形機械人類別 [1] 921 台 2026 年上半年銷量 優必選集團同一類別 [1] +1,445% 該類別收入增長 按年計算 [1] 人民幣 12.7 億元 約 304 億日圓 2026 年上半年集團收入 增長 104% [1] 16,123 人形機械人出貨量 涵蓋所有尺寸，2026 年上半年 [20] 10,000+ 年產能 柳州智能工廠 [10] 優必選於 2026 年 9 月 24 日刊發的中期報告披露，2026 年上半年，全尺寸具身智能人形機械人產品及服務錄得收入人民幣 5.903 億元（約 141 億日圓或 8,800 萬美元），銷量為 921 台。該類別收入按年增長 1,445%，佔集團收入的 46.5%；銷量則增長 1,947%。集團收入增長逾一倍至人民幣 12.691 億元（約 304 億日圓；增長 104.2%），毛利率上升 9.7 個百分點至 44.7%，各尺寸人形機械人的出貨量合共為 16,123 台 [18]。期內研發開支為人民幣 3.031 億元（約 73 億日圓），增長 38.9%，工程師人數為 1,103 人 [18]。2025 年全年，全尺寸人形機械人收入增長逾 22 倍至人民幣 8.21 億元（約 184 億日圓），成為優必選最大的收入來源 [18]。上述數據反映優必選集團的業務，並非 Bitcoin Japan 的財務業績或合約約定的數量。[1] 日圓金額均為約數：2026 年上半年數據按 2026 年 6 月 30 日人民幣 1 元兌 23.95 日圓換算，2025 年數據則按 2025 年 12 月 31 日人民幣 1 元兌 22.42 日圓換算，與相關 TDnet 披露文件採用的匯率一致。 優必選以工業規模生產人形機械人。首台 Walker S2 於 2025 年 6 月下線，第 1,000 台亦於同年年底前下線 [10]。2026 年 9 月，優必選位於廣西柳州、面積達 14,000 平方米的智能工廠啟用。該工廠與 Siemens Digital Industries Software 共同規劃，以 Walker S 及 Cruzr 系列為主，年產能逾 10,000 台人形機械人，相當於每 10 分鐘生產一台 [10]。Walker S2 能自主更換電池，可全天候運作 [11]。 公開報道中涉及優必選集團的業務活動包括：與日立在華實體進行 Walker S2 評估 [2]、本田貿易（中國） 與優必選集團旗下 UQI Robotics 就擬議示範項目展開合作 [3]、據報與 德州儀器（Texas Instruments） 達成的安排 [4]，以及與 Siemens Digital Industries Software 的軟件合作 [5]。2026 年 10 月，優必選與一汽大眾簽訂戰略合作協議，將以自 2024 年起在一汽大眾青島工廠進行的 Walker S 試驗為基礎，開發及測試用於工廠物流和智能製造的人形機械人 [9]。據報，優必選的其他汽車製造商客戶包括比亞迪、吉利汽車及東風柳州汽車 [10]。在中國以外，優必選於 2026 年 8 月與新加坡電信（Singtel） 簽署諒解備忘錄，共同開發機械人解決方案 [12]；其機械人亦正透過歐洲經銷夥伴，在德國零售商 ROSSMANN 的物流場地部署 [13]。上述第三方資料均涉及優必選集團，並不代表 Bitcoin Japan 的客戶合約、承諾或收入。 曾到訪 2025 年大阪世博會的參觀者，或已見過優必選的機械人：其 Walker C 人形機械人曾在中國館迎接訪客及提供導覽 [14]。UBTECH ROBOTICS CORP. LTD. 於 2023 年 12 月在香港聯合交易所主板上市（股份代號：9880），並被廣泛稱為首家專注於人形機械人的上市公司 [15]。 營運模式 計劃中的三大收入支柱 公司的商業策略是透過技術部署及持續服務賺取收入，而不單靠機械人銷售時的一次性收入。 01 機械人銷售 經銷、付費試用及整合 02 機械人即服務及配套服務 租賃、營運及支援 03 實體人工智能數據 收集及授權，須符合相關權利要求 機械人銷售及付費概念驗證 Bitcoin Japan 計劃向客戶提供付費試用，以評估任務執行表現、可靠性、整合要求及客戶的經濟效益。評估結果符合要求後，客戶可購買機械人，並獲得實施、本地化、應用程式開發及系統整合支援。 機械人即服務（RaaS） 協議允許 Bitcoin Japan 保留機械人的擁有權，並透過租賃或服務安排向客戶提供機械人。按計劃中的機械人即服務模式，公司可就機械人使用及協定服務收取經常性或按使用量計算的費用。保養、維修、零件、操作員培訓及技術支援亦可能帶來額外收入。機械人隊伍的投資將視乎需求、營運成本、現金回收情況及可用資金而定。 實體人工智能數據即服務（DaaS） Bitcoin Japan 計劃探索收集、處理及標註機械人在獲准的實際運作中產生的數據集，並進行質素保證及授權。任何數據集的商業價值均取決於客戶及第三方權利、數據質素、買方需求及適用法律。本公告並未確認任何數據授權收入或客戶。 數據管治及獲准開展的國際活動 就訂約雙方之間的權利安排而言，協議允許 Bitcoin Japan 使用及處置其在日本部署的機械人所收集的數據，惟須遵守適用的數據保障要求及尊重其他相關權利。根據協議，該等機械人收集的個人資料必須在日本處理及儲存。實際商業化亦須取得相關客戶許可，並落實合規管控措施。 協議亦允許 Bitcoin Japan 探索特定範圍內的海外數據收集活動，包括為關聯公司的自用研究及內部用途部署機械人，以及在所在地為日本的客戶的海外場所部署由 Bitcoin Japan 擁有的機械人。上述安排仍須遵守合約限制及當地法律要求。 執行及披露 商業化路徑及下一階段里程碑 01 自簽約起 查詢轉交 Bitcoin Japan；供應研究及示範用機械人 02 機型選擇 選定首批產品 03 認證 合規及審批，先從 Walker C1 開始 04 付費試用 客戶評估 05 部署 條件具備後開展銷售／機械人即服務 雙方擬選定首批機型、安排認證用機械人，並以 Walker C1 為首，完成適用的日本合規及認證程序，同時籌備本地化、現場整合及售後支援。商業部署須取得相關批准、確保實際場地具備部署條件，並達成商業協議。Bitcoin Japan 將按照披露責任，在完成認證、交付、客戶付費試用及商業營運等各項里程碑時作進一步公布。 日本政策背景 由日本經濟產業省（METI）牽頭的人工智能計劃，包括 GENIAC，反映政府對模型開發及實際應用的支持。2026 年 6 月，經濟產業省在多模態基礎模型方面的工作中，將工業場地數據定位為開發實體人工智能所需的資訊；同年 7 月，經濟產業省與日本新能源及產業技術綜合開發機構（NEDO）推出 FRONTia 國家項目，旨在建立日本本土的實體人工智能基礎模型 [17]。Bitcoin Japan 認為，這個持續發展的市場為建立本地部署及數據能力帶來機遇。上述政策背景並不代表政府對 Bitcoin Japan 的活動給予贊助或批准。[7] Figure AI 投資與營運策略的區分 2026 年，Bitcoin Japan 透過其美國附屬公司的基金投資，間接參與 Figure AI 股份投資。該投資與優必選經銷協議屬於兩項獨立安排。優必選交易涉及發展一項擬開展的營運業務，而 Figure AI 持倉則屬投資性質。[7] 財務影響及現有業務重組 協議對截至 2027 年 3 月止財政年度綜合業績的財務影響仍在評估中。公司將在適用法律及證券交易所規則要求下作進一步披露。更多資料載於 2026 年 10 月 16 日透過 TDnet 發布的相關披露文件：《（先前已披露事項的進展）關於決定與優必選集團建立業務聯盟的公告（指定產品在日本的獨家經銷協議）》。 此外，公司已公布重組措施，以減少現有業務的虧損。該等措施的任何財務影響應與本協議分開評估。 關於 Bitcoin Japan Corporation Bitcoin Japan Corporation（東京證券交易所：8105）前身為 Marusho Hotta Co., Ltd.，創立於 1861 年，並於 2025 年 11 月採用現名。公司在經營現有業務的同時，正於人工智能相關領域（包括實體人工智能）發展投資及營運業務。網址：bitcoin.co.jp。 關於優必選 優必選（UBTECH ROBOTICS CORP.
