We're on fire! BlackFire Technology founder scorched by 1600-degree flames at robotics conference

On January 24, 2026, BlackFire Technology successfully hosted its 2026 Annual Conference in Hangzhou, Zhejiang. The event highlighted BlackFire Technology's innovative flame-retardant fabric technology. Founder and CEO Xing Bin stunned the audience with a 1600-degree “human-robot collaborative fire dance performance” alongside robots from Shiyun Technology, a subsidiary of Zhiyuan Technology. Government officials, investors, industry chain partners, and mainstream media were invited to attend the event, where they offered high praise for the proceedings.

At the annual conference, Xing Bin, Founder and CEO of BlackFire Technology, joined forces with Shiyun Technology's robot from Zhiyuan Technology to demonstrate non-flammable fabrics under a 1600°C high-temperature flame environment. CEO Xing and the Shiyun robot “Xiao Shi,” clad in Jingzhen Black Fire carbon fiber protective suits, endured continuous exposure to the blue flames of a 1600°C torch.

Amidst the flames, the human and robot performed a dynamic dance, conveying New Year blessings to attendees through this theatrical expression. The fusion of innovative technology and the event's vibrant atmosphere propelled the gala to its climax.

Passion, intensity, innovation, and 1600-degree flames left a vivid and powerful impression on every participant. Since 2021, BlackFire Technology has deepened its research into non-flammable textile technologies. After four years of technical breakthroughs and tens of thousands of experiments, it has progressively established a non-flammable technology system centered on Black Fire carbon fiber materials. This system spans applications including emergency firefighting, national defense, artificial intelligence, new energy vehicles, industrial applications, aerospace, building fireproofing and insulation, and everyday home use.

To date, leveraging Black Fire carbon fiber fabric as the base material and tailored for diverse application scenarios, the technology has expanded into over 40 functional fabrics. The 1600-degree high-temperature combustion demonstration jointly performed by Mr. Xing and the robot exemplifies BlackFire Technology's non-flammable fabrics in the fields of personal protection and artificial intelligence.

The performance drew repeated rounds of enthusiastic applause from the audience. Many attendees rose to capture the moment on camera. During the subsequent discussion session, participants engaged in in-depth exchanges on material properties, application boundaries, and safety protection scenarios.

Multiple attendees remarked that this live demonstration vividly showcased the stable performance of non-combustible materials under high-temperature combustion conditions, providing clearer insights into the current development level and applications within the new materials industry while boosting confidence in its potential.

Regarding on-site assessments, BlackFire Technology possesses the potential to become one of the future “Six Dragons,” Xing Bin remarked: “BlackFire Technology is currently like an insect—perhaps not yet adept at flight, but one that confronts adversity head-on, thrives in the face of fire, withstands the crucible, and remains tenacious and unwavering. Though BlackFire Technology is an insect now, I firmly believe that given time, we can rise through fire.”

It is precisely this tenacity forged in fire, this courage to temper itself in 1600-degree heat, that enables BlackFire Technology to weave this life-saving net.
