The world's first IPO-NFT project, the AotuNFT derived from the "Aotu World" IP, will simultaneously conduct NFT MINT and the IPO of its parent company, Multimetaverse, on January 5. AotuNFT is the first groundbreaking combination of IPO issuance products in the NFT market, deeply engaging millions of anime users and global web3 enthusiasts.
Aotu World is an anime IP established in 2015. As one of the most popular anime works in China, it has released four seasons of animation, aired on over 118 local Chinese TV stations, and is available on all major video media platforms in China, with total views exceeding 10 billion. It is also broadcast in countries like Japan, Vietnam, and Russia. As of now, Aotu World has developed animations, comics, mobile games, and various peripheral derivative products.
The "Aotu World" IP is praised as the most suitable anime IP for the metaverse due to its open worldview and emphasis on user co-creation. AotuNFT, based on the Aotu World IP, will be an important part of its parent company's layout in the Web3 field.
Multimetaverse's Metaverse Layout
Aotu World's ambition to enter the metaverse can be glimpsed from its business and capital layout. MultiMetaverse Inc., the parent company of the Aotu World IP owner Qichuang Society, focuses on the metaverse, global game development, and IP development, and will officially list on NASDAQ on January 5, 2023. At the same time, Aotunft will also issue NFTs, initiating multi-market interactions.
Leveraging strong creative capabilities, business operation skills, and user engagement, MultiMetaVerse Inc. will continue to explore commercial value based on successful IPs and develop multiple products based on the metaverse concept, aiming to unlock a "diverse metaverse" for users.
Based on past IP content and game development advantages, MMV will focus on expanding its business and product development in the metaverse field. Currently, MultiMetaVerse Inc. is preparing a 2D metaverse IM product aimed at animation enthusiasts, allowing users to convert spoken or written language into comics and animated videos, and share their derivative works on various social media platforms. This will gradually cultivate a loyal community and an ecosystem for the metaverse platform.
At the same time, MultiMetaVerse Inc. will collaborate with leading global AI technology platforms, including Microsoft's AI company Xiaoice, to develop open-world game projects based on the "Aotu World" IP, with AI beings (virtual humans) serving as all NPCs. This will help NPCs break free from the limitations of being "tools" and develop into emotionally interactive AI entities. The Aotu metaverse project will be a AAA quality entertainment work built using the most advanced Unreal Engine, spanning mobile, PC, console, VR, and cloud platforms.
Founding Team with Rich Experience in Capital Operations and the Gaming Industry
The founder and CEO of MultiMetaverse Inc. is Alex Xu, who has extensive experience in the gaming industry and investment field. He entered the gaming industry in 1994 as an entrepreneur and is one of the earliest game entrepreneurs in China. Since 2003, he has served as an executive in listed companies. He has held positions such as SVP/CBO at Perfect World, president of the game business line at Qihoo 360, strategic investment director at Giant Network, and head of the game industry line at Sohu, overseeing the development and agency of several well-known games.
In 2015, Alex Xu assisted Perfect World's subsidiary, Leyou Interactive, in acquiring the well-known Japanese game company SNK, and served as a director of SNK, helping it go public in South Korea on May 7, 2019 (KOSDAQ:950180), creating the highest market value record for an overseas company listed in Korea.
In June 2017, he became the CEO of Leyou Technologies Holdings (1089.HK), developing and agencying several popular games, which was fully acquired by Tencent for $1.37 billion in 2020.
After exiting Leyou Technologies, this "veteran" of the gaming industry chose to take on the challenge of the currently popular metaverse track. In 2021, he founded Multi-Metaverse Inc., acquired Qichuang Society, and led the popular domestic anime IP "Aotu World" into the metaverse.
After managing four listed companies, the "Aotu World" IP and AotuNFT's parent company Multimetaverse is the fifth. Alex's years of practical experience in the gaming industry and capital markets will further enhance the deep understanding of the internet industry and capital markets at MultiMetaverse and AotuNFT. This significant entry into the metaverse industry raises expectations for the rich product ecosystem and the role of Aotu World in the metaverse under an open capital market environment.
AotuNFT and MultiMetaverse Ecosystem Interaction
As the NFT business connecting IP content and metaverse products, AotuNFT will become a key focus of innovation for MultiMetaVerse Inc. AotuNFT currently has a global community of Web3 enthusiasts, covering languages including English, Japanese, and Indonesian, and is continuously expanding Web3 product attempts in the Aotu metaverse to accumulate global fans.
As an important part of AotuVerse, the overseas NFT project AotuNFT, developed based on the Aotu World IP, will also be issued at the same time as the MMV IPO, exploring new models of IP management and user co-creation.
1. Product Interaction, Building the Metaverse Ecosystem
AotuNFT will play an important role in the layout of AotuVerse. AotuNFT will prioritize testing and deep interaction with metaverse concept products such as Aotu IM products and open-world games, leveraging IP management advantages to collaborate with NFT platforms, globally renowned NFT projects, and traditional brands' Web3 products for co-branding and peripheral development.
2. User Co-Creation and DAO Practice
At the same time, AotuNFT will continue the user co-creation advantage of Aotu World in the anime field, encouraging UGC and PUGC, leveraging the large amount of UGC created by fans and the community to achieve autonomous diffusion and dissemination of the IP. After the official issuance, AOTUNFT will gradually launch AotuDAO to support quality creators, allowing these creators not only to create for love but also to earn related income.
As the first IPO-NFT issued by a NASDAQ-listed metaverse IP company, AotuNFT will conduct its IPO and NFT issuance simultaneously. The specific issuance schedule for AotuNFT is Freemint from January 5, 16:00 - 20:00 (UTC+8), whitelist sale from January 5, 20:00 - January 6, 20:00 (UTC+8), followed by the public sale phase.
With the stock listing coinciding with the NFT sale, both trading markets will launch simultaneously, capturing the derivative commercial value of MultiMetaverse's metaverse ecosystem products and IP content. Supported by rich IP content and several cutting-edge products, AotuNFT will undoubtedly become the cornerstone of value for AotuVerse, possessing limitless potential.
