Affected by the new crown epidemic, the government has repeatedly announced the closure of recreational facilities under the LCSD's jurisdiction, including performance venues such as music centres, cinemas and xiqu centres, which has severely hit the performing arts industry.
In order to help entertainers perform without the constraints of time and space, Lin Junhui, the founder of the start-up "Theatron", founded the Metaverse Theater to provide entertainers with a 3D reality metaverse performance platform.
Performers can perform on the platform as long as they create an account on the platform of "Theatron".
Just like a real concert, there will be convertible sets and installations on the Metaverse stage, which are presented to performers through different 3D sets, such as grass, coast, etc., so that performers and audiences can participate in the concert as if they were held on the grass, avoiding Subject to the restriction that a real concert takes place in a theatre or lecture hall.
In addition, whether it is a performer or an audience, the account is divided into a basic member and a paid member, and the number and selection of sets for the two will also be different.

Performers can create their own NFTs for sale
Hong Kong has always been labeled as a "cultural desert", and Lin Junhui emphasized that the purpose of "Theatron" is to lower the entry barrier to the entertainment industry through performances in the virtual world.
"I hope that anyone can hold their own concerts, especially independent musicians. Without the support of big companies, it is difficult to have room to play."
He went on to point out that if independent musicians are unable to perform, they are "stopping their hands and talking". They have no income and may not be able to perform due to insufficient funds.
Performers in "Theatron" can create their own NFTs with free pricing, allowing performers to make profits while exerting their strengths.
Lin Junhui said that considering that people who buy tickets to watch the concert are because of the lively feeling and lively atmosphere, the "Theatron" platform not only displays the 3D appearance of the performers, but also displays the real-time images of the performers in the lower right corner of the window, such as the audience. If you want to interact with performers, you can use functions such as "Heart" and "Fireworks", and even buy performers' NFTs with the cryptocurrency USDT (Tite).

About ten 3D scenes will be set up as a long-term goal to build a new entertainment circle
"Theatron" is planned to be launched in 2023. Before the launch, performers from different disciplines will be invited to participate.
Lin Junhui pointed out that in order to make the performance more rich, more materials need to be designed at present, and about ten more 3D scenes can be produced before the official launch. In the long run, he hopes to build a new entertainment circle and promote Hong Kong's innovative cultural and creative industries.
In addition, the problem of speculating and selling "scalpers flying" has persisted for many years, making it impossible for many music fans to buy tickets to watch the concert.
Recently, artist Tyson Yoshi and Mirror organizers made and sold concert tickets under their real names.
As Lin Junhui said, "Theatron" advocates that everyone can be a performer, and also advocates that anyone can enjoy idol performances on a virtual platform. I believe "Theatron" can solve the problem of music fans unable to support idols, and help Hong Kong performing arts. to construct a new culture.

NFT | Metaverse has a valuable and marketable piece of land that can be worth 3 million at any time. Feng Delun and Shu Qi are both landlords. The cultural and creative industries in Hong Kong account for such a low GDP!
