Chinese state pumps money into metaverse stakes
中国官方向元宇宙企业注入资金
Chinese local governments and state-backed entities are pumping money into companies involved in creating the so-called metaverse, as the country competes to become the global centre of the new digital craze.
中国地方政府和国家支持的实体正在向参与创建所谓“元宇宙”的公司注入资金。中国正努力成为这场新的数字热潮的全球中心。
On Wednesday, China’s newly formed Metaverse Industry Committee announced that 17 companies had been included in the organisation to “promote the healthy, orderly and sustainable development of the metaverse”.
周三，中国新成立的中国移动通信联合会元宇宙产业委员会(CMCA-MCC)公布了17家成员接纳名单。该委员会的成立是为了“推进元宇宙健康有序可持续发展”。
The committee, established in October, aims for companies to discuss new rules, policies and projects. It is one of the many initiatives involving state-backed groups and local officials that are also seeking stakes in metaverse companies amid an investment frenzy.
该委员会于去年10月成立，旨在让企业讨论新的规则、政策和项目。在这场投资热潮中，一些有国家支持的集团和地方官员正寻求入股元宇宙企业，成立该委员会是众多相关行动之一。
