Global Mofy AI Limited (Nasdaq: GMM) announced that its visual‑effects arm, Mofy VFX, has secured a full‑service VFX contract for Tencent Video’s original comedy series “No Pain No Gain.” The 10‑episode series, produced by Xinli TV and Yuewen Film & TV, premiered on January 31, 2026 and immediately topped Tencent Video’s real‑time TV series list and trending search list, achieving a heat index that exceeded 24,000 points.
Mofy VFX will deliver end‑to‑end visual‑effects production, leveraging its proprietary Mofy Lab platform and an AI‑native workflow that blends generative‑AI tools with automated pipeline modules. The workflow is designed to scale high‑throughput, high‑quality output while meeting the tight turnaround required by a platform‑grade distribution schedule. The contract win demonstrates the company’s ability to apply its AI‑driven technology to a high‑profile, fast‑paced production, reinforcing its reputation as a reliable partner for China’s leading streaming platforms.
In FY 2025, GMM reported revenue of $55.9 million, a 35.3% increase from the $36.8 million earned in FY 2024, but the company posted a net loss of $19.3 million after a $12.1 million profit in FY 2024. The loss reflects significant investment in AI‑native production pipelines and AI‑agent‑based workflows that are expected to drive long‑term scalability. The “No Pain No Gain” contract, while not disclosed in dollar terms, represents a strategic milestone that adds a high‑visibility client to GMM’s portfolio and signals the commercial viability of its generative‑AI VFX capabilities.
The AI‑in‑VFX market is projected to grow from $5.18 billion in 2025 to $30.46 billion by 2035, with China accounting for a large share of that expansion. GMM’s focus on AI‑native workflows positions it to capture a growing demand for cost‑efficient, high‑quality visual effects in China’s booming film and streaming industry. The company’s recent expansion into the U.S. market through its Eaglepoint AI subsidiary and the launch of Gauss AI Lab further underscore its strategy to scale generative‑AI content solutions beyond domestic borders.
Ms. Wenjun Jiang, President and Chief Technology Officer, said the partnership “demonstrates how our AI‑native workflow can deliver high‑quality VFX efficiently at scale, supporting the production’s creative vision while meeting demanding platform schedules.” She added that the win “strengthens GMM’s reputation and credibility within the industry, deepening trust with leading content platforms and producers, and further positioning Global Mofy AI as a reliable long‑term partner for high‑volume, high‑quality digital content production.”
The contract win, coupled with GMM’s ongoing investment in AI technology, signals a strategic pivot toward scalable, AI‑driven VFX services. While the company’s FY 2025 loss highlights short‑term financial pressure, the growing demand for AI‑enhanced visual effects and the high‑profile nature of the Tencent Video project suggest that GMM is positioning itself for long‑term growth in a rapidly expanding market.
