Compare the same specification and billing method
The tables use 1K text-to-image, default quality and USD per image. A converted CNY quote uses the site exchange-rate snapshot. Token rates remain separate: a per-image cost requires actual input and output usage. Provider discounts, prepaid balance and routing conditions are part of the quote.
