More than 200 science fiction industry enterprises and institutions are gathered in Shijingshan District, ranking first in the city, and as the only benchmark hard technology incubator and innovation service platform featuring the science fiction industry in China, Zhongguancun Science Fiction Industry Innovation Center has obvious advantages in the fields of science fiction key technology and science fiction content creation. In 2020, since the China Association for Science and Technology and the Beijing Municipal Government signed the "Strategic Cooperation Agreement on Promoting the Development of Beijing's Science Fiction Industry", Shijingshan District has aimed at the new track of science fiction industry development, continued to deepen the construction of the industrial chain, and built an industrial development ecology.
At present, the development of science fiction industry and the construction of science fiction industry agglomeration area in Shijingshan District have been included in the national and Beijing municipal planning, work plans and key tasks for the construction of international science and technology innovation centers. The "16 Science Fiction Articles" were introduced to seize the leading edge in the development of the science fiction industry, the first "Science Fiction Industry Consortium" in China was established, and the number of member companies has been expanded to 66, and the first science fiction industry equity fund in the country was established and the first investment was made.
Accelerate the industrial layout and gather key projects. As an important support for the construction of science fiction industry agglomeration area, Shijingshan District has promoted the completion and commissioning of Jin'an Science Fiction Plaza with a construction scale of 100,000 square meters, and has initially formed an industrial development pattern of "content creation + IP transformation + film and television special effects production + hard technology + immersive experience" by building an industrial service platform and landing a number of demonstration application scenarios, and the science fiction industry chain has been continuously extended and expanded here.
On the technology side of the science fiction industry, it focuses on the introduction of industries around infrastructure, terminal interaction and platform tools, and gathers a number of innovative companies such as Xinchen Technology, Sick Moor, Polaris Tour, and Yuanxu Semiconductor. Panoramic sound technology, Guanguan Zhiyu, Holographic Weiyan, Aoxue Ruishi, Lingyu Technology and other key technologies around AR/VR terminals and human-computer interaction continue to make breakthroughs, among them, Panoramic Sound is the first complete panoramic sound system solution provider in China, Guanguan Zhiyu takes optical imaging technology as the core, and the full-stack optical imaging solutions and products provided by Kankan Zhiyu have been applied to the industry's leading brands in the fields of vehicle and IoT.
In the sci-fi platform tool layer, focusing on digital content production, modeling-driven rendering, AIGC and other technical fields, the introduction of Render Technology, Youmi Interactive Entertainment, Tiantu Wanjing and other enterprises, among which Render Technology is committed to building a leading domestic and the world's most advanced 3D real-time graphics engine, so that it can provide independent and controllable engine products and technical services for all walks of life, and its Lumverse3D graphics engine is a full-platform large-scale 3D graphics engine with domestic independent intellectual property rights.
On the science fiction content side, master studios such as Liu Cixin and Wang Jinkang have settled in, favoring innovative technologies such as Vision and Tiantu Wanjing to create new digital content, and science fiction research and publicity leaders such as the Science Fiction Research Center of the China Institute of Science Popularization, positive and negative poles, and micro-image culture have taken root in the park, and Shijingshan District has initially formed a science fiction industry collaboration system of "content creation + IP transformation + film and television special effects production + hard technology + immersive experience".
Promote scientific and technological innovation and introduce service platforms. Relying on the Zhongguancun Science Fiction Industry Innovation Center, driven by the needs of major industrial projects, we have built a R&D and innovation platform for key industrial technologies, covering more than 10 public technical service platforms in motion capture, optical imaging, 5G+AR and other directions, of which the light field imaging platform is the largest light field platform in China. Light field imaging technology is an underlying common technology that uses multi-dimensional optical information to achieve high-resolution imaging, ultra-depth of field imaging, and renderable dynamic reconstruction, and is a technology that urgently needs to be broken through in the field of Internet 3.0 industry. The platform fully integrates the upstream and downstream resources of the industrial chain, as well as rich application scenarios, develops gradient light field imaging, multi-aperture light field imaging and high-precision and efficient AI algorithm technology, develops and builds a series of light field acquisition and modeling systems, light field databases, digital human production and broadcasting application and evaluation systems, and holographic communication application evaluation systems, shortening the digital content production cycle from several months to less than 2 days.
The digital live broadcast base of Zhongguancun Science Fiction Industry Innovation Center is equipped with the digital human live broadcast system developed by Juli Dimension Company, which can accurately restore the facial expressions of the collected objects through motion capture through the monocular camera, and the high-performance graphics card can also be used for the production of virtual assets and various rendering experiments.
In response to the domestic substitution of related technologies and the need for the upgrading and iteration of content production technology, the XR Virtual Shooting Laboratory has set up an XR central kitchen, which is a high-definition XR content production laboratory, which integrates core technology modules in the audiovisual field such as display, virtual shooting, motion capture, digital human, panoramic sound, and content rendering, and provides cutting-edge audiovisual technology support for radio and television, education, sports, medical care, fashion and other fields.
In terms of the construction of science fiction scenes and public technology service platforms, at present, 11 science fiction application scenarios have been implemented, including a blast furnace SoReal Science Fiction Park, RE Rui International Memory Museum, Baidu Radish Express Unmanned Driving Scene and "Beijing Metaverse Technology Exhibition and Experience Center" to build an industrial development pattern of "technology + culture + scene + service", bringing a rich science fiction experience to the public.
As the world's first fully immersive space exploration-themed science fiction complex and the world's first international cultural and technological park that combines XR technology with industrial relics, Shougang No. 1 Blast Furnace SoReal Science Fiction Park has extensively deployed innovative technologies such as 5G, cloud computing, edge computing, space computing, and digital twins based on Chinese science fiction stories, and re-unveiled the century-old industrial relics in the image of the "Monkey Sky" space starship, creating a new scene of immersive cultural tourism experience of "technology + life", and becoming a demonstration case of the transformation of the old industrial park.
Located on the first floor of the Zhongguancun Science Fiction Industry Innovation Center, the "Fantasy Science Fiction Exploration Hall" will be unveiled during the 8th China Science Fiction Convention in 2024, using the world's leading film industry technology and digital interactive technology, the Discovery Hall will bring immersive science fiction experiences such as "Space Rescue" and "Space Dinosaur Base" to science fiction lovers.
Relying on China Mobile's 5G computing power network innovation, Migu Digital Intelligence Athletic Experience Center has launched a new model of sports competition with the integration of data and reality, which has the new characteristics of independent controllability, free play, real-time confrontation, and real-time online, breaking through the time and space constraints of the traditional sports competition mode, and creating a new scene of competitive competition full of a sense of science and technology and a sense of the future.
