Nanjing Wujing Future Power Halts Operations Amidst Unpaid Wages Following Collapse of Framework Order Hype
Overview
In late 2026, Nanjing Wujing Future Power, a quadruped robot startup based in Jiangning Development Zone, suspended operations after failing to honor wage obligations totaling approximately 8 million yuan for dozens of employees. Despite earlier claims of nearly 1 billion yuan in framework orders and 110 million yuan in angel funding, the company faced severe liquidity issues, with its actual controller going missing and social security contributions ceasing. The incident underscores a broader trend in the embodied intelligence sector where startups often rely on narrative-driven financing and non-binding framework agreements rather than sustainable commercialization, leading to rapid financial distress once capital inflows dry up.
