It is understood that NFT, namely non-homogeneous token, is regarded as an item of the blockchain. It is a unique asset in the digital world, which can be bought, sold and used to represent some commodities in the real world, but its way of existence is invisible.
Beijing Business Daily reporter found through the statistics of Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchange that at present, many A-share companies are involved in NFT.
In November 2021, Wuhan Golden Laser Co.Ltd(300220) share price was hyped by investors in the secondary market, and the company’s share price doubled in only one month. The sharp rise of share price has something to do with the company’s involvement in “NFT tide play” blind box. On July 8, 2021, Wuhan Golden Laser Co.Ltd(300220) launched a new type of IP blind box product – “NFT tide play” blind box. This product includes two parts: physical doll and virtual doll. When the user approaches the mobile phone to the physical doll with NFC chip, a virtual doll can be generated. Different encryption codes are added to the virtual doll corresponding to the physical doll, so that each virtual doll has a unique identification, The ownership is clear, the information is true and transparent, and cannot be copied or tampered with.
In addition, Col Digital Publishing Group Co.Ltd(300364) also said that the company’s massive IP and virtual image can be NFT. NFT has great value for the company’s virtual assets. The company has established a team for metauniverse and invested relevant resources.

most have not yet generated actual benefits
For the application of NFT, many companies said that they have not yet generated actual benefits.
Taking Wuhan Golden Laser Co.Ltd(300220) as an example, the company said that the “NFT tide play” blind box is in the process of promotion. The underlying technologies such as blockchain and AR involved in the company’s business are not independently developed by the company. They are all commercial applications of existing technologies.

For relevant issues, the reporter of Beijing Business Daily called the Wuhan Golden Laser Co.Ltd(300220) Secretary Office for an interview, but no one answered.
Zhejiang Daily Digital Culture Group Co.Ltd(600633) is also a hot topic of NFT concept. The company is rumored to hold a large number of NFT digital assets.
