Jack Zhong
钟天杰
Jack Zhong (钟天杰) is an investment director at ZhenFund, the Beijing-based early-stage venture capital firm founded by Xu Xiaoping. He appears in ZhenFund's own materials as a regular commentator on AI and software investing, having authored or been cited in multiple pieces published by the firm in 2026. His writing focuses on the shift away from GUI-centric software toward agent-native architectures — a thesis he laid out in a March 2026 essay titled "Maybe We Should Stop Investing in GUI-Centric Software Companies" , which he later expanded in a July 2026 podcast episode marking "Day 500 of the Agent Era" . Elsewhere's corpus does not cover his background prior to ZhenFund or his personal history in detail.
