Primary Market Industry Research Report
Generate professional industry research reports in an institutional primary-market (PE/VC) research style.
Reference Source
- Type: Uploaded artifact (PDF)
- Reference File Type: PDF
- Languages: Chinese or English (auto-detect from user query; default to user's language)
Supported Outputs
- PDF (default)
- DOCX
- PPTX (if explicitly requested)
Default output: PDF. If user explicitly requests DOCX or PPTX, honor that request.
Workflow
- Understand the research scope from user query: target industry, sub-topics, depth, page count
- Determine report style based on user preference or task context:
- Style A (Deep Discussion): Opinion-heavy, TMT/tech focus, numbered chapters (01, 02...), no TOC
- Style B (Traditional Sector): Data-heavy, many charts and tables, TOC with multi-level numbering
- Plan content structure using the appropriate structure contract (see references)
- Research and gather data using web search and data source tools as needed
- Review investment & financing history for the sector: search for key funding rounds, deal sizes, lead investors, IPO/exit events, and capital flow trends in the target industry. Sources include Crunchbase, PitchBook, CB Insights, IT桔子, 烯牛数据, and public deal announcements
- Generate the report following the style and structure contracts precisely
- Review for completeness: ensure all exhibits are numbered, sources cited, and formatting consistent

Typography Strategy
For Chinese-language reports
- Headings: KaiTi (楷体) — calligraphic, distinctive institutional feel
- Style A body: SimSun (宋体) — formal serif tone
- Style B body: STKaitiSC-Regular (华文楷体) — consistent with heading font family
- Latin text: Times New Roman (body + italic for sources), Arial Bold (header emphasis)
- Chart labels: DengXian (等线) or Calibri for English labels
- All document text paths use CJK-capable fonts consistently
For English-language reports
- Headings: Georgia or Times New Roman — institutional serif feel
- Body text: Times New Roman or Garamond — formal, readable
- Chart labels / tables: Calibri or Arial
- Header emphasis: Arial Bold
General
- When exact reference fonts unavailable, prefer fonts from the same visual family
- For bilingual content, ensure CJK and Latin fonts are harmonized in weight and size
Exhibit Numbering
- Figures: Sequential numbering with caption below — "图 N" (Chinese) or "Figure N" (English)
- Tables: Sequential numbering with caption above — "表 N" (Chinese) or "Table N" (English)
- Data source note below each exhibit: "数据来源:xxx" (Chinese) or "Source: xxx" (English)
- Reset numbering for each major section in Style B; continuous in Style A
Source Citation Rules
- Every data point, statistic, or claim must have a source
- Inline: cite source parenthetically or in footnote
- Exhibits: "数据来源:" (Chinese) or "Source:" (English) below each figure/table
- Preferred sources: government databases, industry associations, public company filings, reputable analyst reports, authoritative media
