Monthly report of media industry: in 2021, the download volume of oculus application may exceed 10 million, and the global revenue of Chinese independently developed games exceeds 370 billion

In December 2021, the monthly growth rate of media (CITIC) reached 15.6%, leading the whole industry, and achieved positive earnings for five consecutive months. We believe that it is mainly due to the theme catalysis of the meta universe. There are differences about the meta universe, but the consensus is converging. Compared with PC Internet, mobile Internet has improved portability and more natural interaction mode, and its application scenario and total output value have been multiplied. Metauniverse, or the next generation Internet, is expected to further upgrade the interaction mode based on XR products, including gesture sensing, motion capture, eye tracking, tactile feedback and even brain computer interface; The product form in the form of glasses will bring portability no less than that of mobile phones. According to the estimate of the CEO of Qualcomm, the sales volume of quest2 has reached 10 million units, and the development of VR in the consumer market may have reached an inflection point. According to third-party data, oculus applications were downloaded 120 / 240 / 440 / 10.62 million times in 2018-2021. Relevant investment and financing of yuancosmos are active. The valuation of yuancosmos content platform zepeto is over $1 billion, the valuation of VR social platform recroom is $3.5 billion, and the recent financing of digital product trading platform opensea is $300 million, with a valuation of over $13 billion. In December 2021, Netease announced the meta universe plan, including one game (Dahua journey to the West), one technology (Youling virtual human SDK) and one platform (Yaotai); Baidu released the meta universe platform "Xi soil". The exploration of digital assets and virtual human related application fields has maintained a high degree of activity. We are optimistic about the development opportunities brought by metauniverse and the next generation Internet to the media industry. Based on this, we give the industry a "recommended" rating.
