SoftBank Focuses On The Layout Of The Metaverse With AOS To Create A Brand-New Future

Published

on

Recently, Softbank Ventures Asia publicly announced that it has begun to focus on Metaverse and invested in the AOS project. It will cooperate with AOS to connect and integrate more Metaverses in AI, NFT, robotics, and other fields, and carry the development of large-scale killer applications.

The enthusiastic investment in Metaverse has not subsided, but it has risen again. The technology giants have all entered the Metaverse. Facebook plans to fully transform into Metaverse before 2025, and will set up a product team to accelerate investment in VR/AR and the creator community; Bytedance, which has always believed in Striving for Miracles, merged Mutong Technology for 4 billion USD, and begin to lay out the Metaverse; Axie Infinity builds NFT games based on the Metaverse, subverting the traditional game mode and becoming a phenomenon-level game product; miHOYO, the developer of “Genshin Impact”, formed an AI scientist inverse entropy team, and self-developed Avatar Luming to explore the brain-computer interface. Through investment, miHOYO has successfully deployed the social Metaverse Soul; the Internet industry is renewing and iterating rapidly, and companies need to attach importance to meet unknown concepts and challenges or be left behind by the times.

In the Metaverse era, everything has virtual avatars. The concept of Metaverse seems to be still in the mist today, but the prelude to the new era has been opened, and it is closer than you think.

The popularization of the term Metaverse was cited from the novel Avalanche by American science fiction writer Neil Stephenson in 1992. In his book, he used the word Metaverse for the first time without foundation and described it as a parallel universe projected from the real world through technical means such as the Internet. However, anyone who has watched the movie “Ready Player One” by the great director Steven Spielberg should probably understand this concept. Like the “Oasis” in the movie, the company has created a realistic virtual world outside of the real world. Every player in the real world has another identity in the virtual world, establishes another social circle, and leads another life. Although the Metaverse is only a virtual world, its immersion is so vivid that you will think it is the real world and enjoy life in this new world.

AOS (Artificial Intelligence Operating System) is the first operating system developed by Canada Unicorn Park, based on the underlying blockchain technology to connect the Metaverse. By building a Metaverse bridge online, and using robots as an intelligent carrier offline to build an ecosystem between Metaverses and provide a new experience for integration with Metaverse and the real world.

Based on AOS, users could create an AI NFT that has autonomous consciousness and advanced self-learning capability; And it also gets influenced by the distributed personality database on the chain to build character, and gradually complete neural network-style self-learning and improvements. Most of all, the distributed character database is based on the “Book of Changes” and appropriately constructs the character of AI; users can inject their favorite characters, personalities, voices, etc., into their own AI NFT, and tame it to learn more skills. AOS encourages users to integrate more characters and personalities, combined with NFT to create different artistic values. The custom AI itself has NFT attributes. Users can customize the appearance of AI on the network, and can also authorize access to a third-party character customization system, such as specific character images and voices, and third-party NFT star voices and appearances, packaged in the form of NFT used for trading and collection.

AOS connects the first-generation physical carrier, the AI four-wheel driving robot Mars_1 with the Metaverse and the real world, creating a new user experience.

Mars_1 is a highly integrated artificial intelligence robot product. Its appearance is in the form of a four-legged driving robot dog. It adopts an original five-layer motion control technology and several technical indicators are in a leading position in the global industry. Mars_1 has integrated the Internet of Things, 5G, virtual reality/augmented reality, intelligent driving, swarm intelligence, and other technologies. Mars_1 will obey commands and gradually be closer to a dog and then become to a good assistant to humankind.

On the road to the Metaverse, AOS always hopes to leave a strong and colorful stroke in its own way. Connect the Metaverse through AI and map out the experience and lifestyle of the future. For the world that people dream of, high-intelligence AI coupled with linkage with robots will be an indispensable component of this era. As the aboriginal and basic units of the Metaverse, these virtual species based on AOS will continue to establish connections with us beyond human beings in the infinite space and time of the future, transcending the fetters of races.

Sun Zhengyi believes: “We are about to experience the biggest change in human history. AI will eventually replace human beings. This is not only reflected in knowledge but also in intelligence. This change will happen in this century, and then in the next 30 years, there is no doubt that our focus is on AI, intelligent robots, and the IOTs.” Based on this analysis and judgment, SoftBank has frequently carried out large-scale layouts in the fields of AI, intelligent robots, and  IOTs. Start from all aspects to create a powerful robot empire. Today, SoftBank’s industries have completed the layout of the future of the new Internet field as Sun Zhengyi said in the past, and completed more than half of the investment of unicorn companies on a global scale, laying a foundation for the subsequent development of the IOTs in the world.

As a world-renowned “Animation Kingdom”, Japan has an irreplaceable influence in the global animation field. After half a century of development, the Japanese animation industry has formed an extremely large system, making Japan the world’s largest animation production and exporting country, and it also around animation IP to derive cultural and creative products, such as GK. With the development of smart technology, they also work hard in the direction of intelligence for GK. Headquartered in Japan, SoftBank has a unique geographical location and is deeply immersed in Japanese IP culture. This collaboration with AOS will further promote the combination of the GK industry and the AI​industry, and provide AOS with a steady stream of IP resources. Users’ favorite characters such as Luffy, Conan, Sailor Moon, Sakuragi Hanamichi, Inuyasha, etc., can inject their image and personality into AI to create your smart figure. Each AI figure is a unique individual, and different parameters also create different expressions and styles. At the same time, when users have more exchanges with AI, they will gradually become familiar with the user’s temper and preferences and adjust their apparent personality in real-time and dynamically making it infinitely close to the form that we want to see eventually.

The product made by a single company is not enough to be called a Metaverse but constitutes an ecological system. With the deep participation of users, if it is successful in collective efforts to build a more interoperable system, and it can be transformed into different layers, then it should be called a Metaverse. AOS is committed to becoming the link between the physical world and the virtual world, as a bridge between various Metaverses to connect the Metaverse and continue to build a new Metaverse ecology. This will be the top priority in the next stage of the development of the Internet after the mobile Internet.

What kind of world will mankind be in the future? SoftBank Asia and AOS have worked together because of the same concept for Metaverse and jointly created such a grand concept, standing at the forefront of the Metaverse economic tide, seizing opportunities, embracing the new future, and believing that with their win-win cooperation, they will give a perfect answer for the world.

Explora Books Showcases the Setterington Family Series at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair

Published

on

Explora Books will present the Setterington Family series by Donna Gene Stankey and co-author Ramona Hammel at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair (BIBF), held June 17–21 at the China National Convention Center in Beijing. The series offers a multi-volume portrayal of American pioneer life and family legacy across generations.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 21st May 2026 – Rate opens on a bitter December night in 1893 at the Setterington homestead near Elsie, Michigan, where Millie, a Canadian-born farmer, waits through the cold for the birth of a son his wife Mina neither wants nor welcomes. From this quietly charged opening, Donna Gene Stankey builds an intimate portrait of rural Midwestern life: its relentless labor, marital tensions, and a father’s stubborn hope that something of himself will endure into the next generation. Grounded in decades of family history and careful research, Rate functions as both a personal family chronicle and a vivid record of settler life on the American frontier.

The Lad Called Rate follows Ralph as he comes into his own through the daily work of the farm—its animals, seasons, and unrelenting demands—in a coming-of-age story rooted in heritage and belonging. Stankey and Hammel render his gradual self-discovery with patience and warmth, tracing a young man finding his footing in a world that asks everything of him.

The Mischief Maker sees Rate trade the open fields for the streets of Elsie, with his dog Bruno never far behind. The pull between his rural upbringing and town life creates both tension and tenderness, as Rate carries the instincts and loyalties of a farm boy into an unfamiliar world. Stankey and Hammel handle this transitional chapter of his life with precision and care.

Forever a Farmer brings the saga to its conclusion, with Rate facing the full cost of keeping a family farm alive across generations. It is a story about what it means to inherit not only land, but responsibility—and about the quiet determination of those who choose to stay when leaving would be easier.

Stankey was herself a Setterington—the third generation to farm the land outside Elsie, Michigan, which she spent decades documenting. Her co-author and daughter, Ramona Hammel, was shaped by the same rural inheritance: first on her father’s farm in Wayland, Michigan, and later on her husband’s farm near Hudson. Following Donna’s passing, Ramona has carried their shared work forward, ensuring the Setterington story reaches the readers it deserves.

Readers and industry professionals attending the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair are encouraged to visit the Explora Books exhibit booth 5A.B14 at the CNCC in Beijing. Attendees will have the opportunity to discover the complete Setterington Family series, explore special event features, and connect with the authors’ legacy in person. 

All four books are available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other major book retailers.

Explora Books to Host Book Signing with Stewart T. Monti Sr. at the BIBF 2026

Published

on

Explora Books will host a book signing with author Stewart T. Monti Sr. at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair (BIBF), June 17–21, at the China National Convention Center (CNCC) in Beijing. Attendees are invited to visit Booth 5A.B14 to meet Monti Sr. and receive signed copies of his medieval fiction titles, Mary and Sir Edward, and Hillary and Sir Edward.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 21st May 2026 – The two books are interconnected medieval fiction novels set in the fictional village of Darwick. Mary and Sir Edward follows twelve-year-old Mary, a farm girl managing her household while her father is away at war. When a wounded knight arrives at her home, her decision to help him sets off events that affect both her family and the wider kingdom.

Hillary and Sir Edward continues the story a generation later through Mary’s daughter, Hillary. Raised in a blacksmith’s forge and trained in combat and strategy, she enters King Henry’s court after Sir Edward recognizes her potential. Disguised as a boy, she must prove herself through discipline and composure as she navigates court politics, a tournament, and a coup attempt that tests her skills and integrity.

Together, the novels form a multigenerational medieval fiction saga centered on legacy, resilience, and character-driven storytelling. The series emphasizes discipline, moral resolve, and the development of strength across generations rather than spectacle or fantasy excess.

Stewart T. Monti Sr., a retired U.S. Air Force Major and former C-130 pilot, channels his military and academic background into his writing. He began with poetry, publishing 135 Poems for Today (2017), and now writes medieval fiction inspired by his diverse experiences.

Attendees at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair will have the opportunity to meet Stewart T. Monti Sr. and obtain signed copies of both books.

Mary and Sir Edward, and Hillary and Sir Edward are also available through Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other major retailers.

Christian Theology Book to Be Featured at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair

Published

on

Explora Books features a profound theological study, Who Is This Christ?, by Jonathan L. McCune at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair, taking place June 17–21 at the China National Convention Center. Through a close examination of scripture, the book explores the identity of Jesus Christ and examines the biblical understanding of God as one indivisible Being.

Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, 21st May 2026 – Grounded in the belief that the Bible presents a unified and consistent message, Who Is This Christ? compares Old Testament prophecy with New Testament fulfillment to explore both humanity and deity of Christ. Rather than relying primarily on denominational tradition, McCune encourages readers to study scripture directly, tracing connections between biblical passages to support his interpretation of Jesus as the promised “Mighty God” and “Everlasting Father.”

Written with both conviction and accessibility, the book addresses longstanding theological questions surrounding the relationship between the “Son of Man” and the eternal Spirit of God dwelling within Christ. McCune also examines foundational biblical teachings, including the “Shema,” the nature of the “New Birth,” repentance, and baptism in the name of Jesus Christ as practiced by the Early Church. Throughout the study, he invites readers to approach scripture with humility, curiosity, and an open mind, encouraging personal reflection and deeper engagement with biblical text.

The theological perspective presented in the book is shaped by decades of ministry experience across several countries, including India, Scotland, and the Marshall Islands. Born to missionaries, McCune draws inspiration from a family legacy of faith and service established by his parents, Rev. Henry and Gladys McCune, whose missionary work in China and Japan helped shape the author’s lifelong dedication to biblical teaching. The presentation of Who Is This Christ? at the Beijing International Book Fair carries special significance, reflecting a continuing connection between that legacy and Asia generations later.

Jonathan L. McCune has served in various ministry roles throughout his life, including associate pastor and Bible doctrine teacher, and continues to share his passion for biblical study through his writing and teaching.

Visitors to the Explora Books exhibit at the 2026 Beijing International Book Fair are invited to discover Who Is This Christ? at booth 5A.B14. This work is also available on Amazon and through other major book retailers.
