HONG KONG SAR – Media OutReach – 14 July 2023 – Leading web3 technology company NFKings, through a joint-venture with the largest variety program IP creator and operator in China, Star CM Holdings Limited (Hong Kong Stock Exchange: 6698), have today announced the launch of Sing!Meta, a web3 entertainment Metaverse which will provide an immersive and unique interactive experience for over 100 million viewers and fans.
Sing!China is one of the most popular reality TV shows in mainland China. The show invites celebrity mentors to discover exceptionally talented musicians through blind auditions and team competitions. Sing!Meta, which is the Metaverse version of Sing!China will provide viewers, fans and contestants a more engaging and two-way interactive experience to the show. In addition, all items within the Metaverse will be uploaded onto the blockchain to become digital assets that users can own.
Elevating Traditional IP with Web3 Technology
This web3 joint-venture between NFKings and Star CM will spearhead a revolutionary new trend in the entertainment industry. Powered by NFKings’ web3 protocol, Sing!Meta offers a digital bridge for TV audiences to step onto the virtual stage of Sing!China and immerse themselves in their favourite entertainment. Over 100 million of Sing!China viewers and aspiring Sing!China contestants will find their place to participate in the Sing!China Metaverse. Users will be able to generate their unique decentralized identity, record and mint their music as non-fungible assets (“NFTs”), own and decorate their music rooms in the Metaverse which are also NFTs, and many other special accesses authenticated only through the NFTs they own.
Creating an Innovative Show Experience in the Metaverse
In recent years, a range of virtual reality products, including Apple’s first Mixed Reality (MR) Vision Pro, were introduced, underlying a growing attention and demand for a “glimpse into the future”. Sing!Meta is a virtual reality version of Sing!China, breaking the rules bounded by a seasonal programme, or location and time limitations imposed on contestants, becoming an all-season entertainment platform. Participants can now immerse themselves in the virtual stage for audition, performance, and engage directly with other viewers and contestants.
Web3 Development in Hong Kong and Mainland China
Web3 is entering an exciting phase of surging development as fostered by several openly issued government statements. The implementation of new regulations for virtual asset in Hong Kong, known as the “Guidelines for Virtual Asset Trading Platform Operators”, which officially took effect in June, indicates that the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region is committed to making Hong Kong a leading web3 hub for digital asset and digital finance. Furthermore, Beijing recently issued the “Beijing Web 3.0 Innovation and Development White Paper (2023)”, recognising web3 technology as an “inevitable trend in the future development of the Internet industry”.
Star CM’s Chief Executive Officer Mr. Tian Ming, NFKings’ Chief Executive Officer and Founder Mr. Matthew Lim, and NFKings founder Mr. Mario Ho attended the launch today. Mr. Tian Ming said: “Web3 and the Metaverse are subverting the existing mode of the entertainment industry, accelerating the combination of traditional entertainment and technology in various aspects. We are thrilled to introduce millions of Sing!China viewers and fans to Sing!Meta, and we look forward to the unique experience that the web3 Metaverse of Sing!China can offer to this industry.”
Mr. Matthew Lim and Mr. Mario Ho said the following statement: “We are delighted to enter this partnership with Star CM. Together, we will empower IPs with Metaverse, blockchain and cutting-edge technologies and optimise this synergy and realization of the huge traditional IP content matrix. NFKings’ powerful web3 technology will bring a different virtual interactive experiences to Sing!China’s viewers and fans.”
