Zhiyuan, brief Mandarin report summaries, male
Zhiyuan is the Mandarin male our note gives to brief report summaries, and the one recipe we kept with him is built for the same job: Mandarin report, with Marcus at 70 percent behind him, described in our note as a report-summary read from two male voices. It sits in the generator presets, ready to use.

About this voice
A report voice, and the two-male recipe built around it
Report summaries are dense with numbers, dates and names. That is where Tidy up script earns its place on paid plans: it reads each character in context, so 一行 in a table comes out as háng.
Mandarin report keeps Zhiyuan at 30 percent and Marcus at 70. Marcus is our English report-summary voice; Zhiyuan's share sets the pronunciation and Marcus changes the weight.
Length the engine likes. The published guidance puts the sweet spot at roughly 100 to 200 tokens, a few sentences per line.
Where we would use it
Summaries, briefings and figures read plainly
Number-heavy scripts
Tables and totals read aloud. Paid plans include Tidy up script, which gives multi-reading characters such as 行 and 长 the intended reading.

FAQ
Questions about Zhiyuan
How do I make 一行 read as háng?
Paid plans include Tidy up script, which checks about fifty multi-reading characters against context. On any plan you can wrap the word in the Pronounce as tag. The captions keep the original text.
What does the Mandarin report recipe change?
The timbre changes. Zhiyuan at 30 percent still reads every character; Marcus at 70 percent adds his weight. Our note calls the result a report-summary read from two male voices.
Are report figures read correctly?
Yes. Digits read cleanly, and the Pronounce as tag sets any figure or unit that must be read a specific way.
How are Zhiyuan's captions cut?
Every cue sits on a real pause in the audio, with lines capped at 16 characters, so each finding in a report gets its own caption.
