Foundation Models availability in mainland China

Hi,

Apple recently announced that Apple Intelligence will launch in mainland China with iOS 27.3.

Will the Foundation Models framework also become available to third-party apps in mainland China? If so, will it use the new iOS 27 Apple Foundation Model or an older version? Will the new capabilities and Private Cloud Compute also be supported?

Thanks!

One more question: If the Foundation Models framework becomes available in mainland China, does anyone know which model it will use? Will it be the standard Apple Foundation Model (and which generation), a China-specific Apple model, or Alibaba’s Qwen?
