contents Heavy-ion collision physics has entered the high precision era, demanding theoretical models capable of generating huge statistics to compare with experimental data. However, traditional hybrid models, which combine hydrodynamics and hadronic transport, are computationally intensive, creating a significant bottleneck. In this work, we introduce DiffHIC, an end-to-end generative diffusion model, to emulate ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions. The model takes initial entropy density profiles and transport coefficients as input and directly generates two-dimensional final-state particle spectra. Our results demonstrate that DiffHIC achieves a computational speedup of approximately $10^5$ against traditional simulations, while accurately reproducing a wide range of physical observables, including integrated and differential anisotropic flow, multi-particle correlations, and momentum fluctuations. This framework provides a powerful and efficient tool for phenomenological studies in the high-precision era of heavy-ion physics.
