The club aims to provide a platform for Bruce Lee enthusiasts worldwide to connect and communicate with each other. Through their website and organized activities, the club strives to promote Bruce Lee's film art, Wu Shu, and philosophical thoughts, while inspiring the younger generation with the immortal spirit embodied in Bruce Lee's legendary life.

Challenge
As our client is working on a project called "Revival of the Memory: Bruce Lee's Home in Metaverse," they would like to extend the project to include the development of the interior of Bruce Lee's Home in the Metaverse. Additionally, they aim to create a platform that allows Bruce Lee enthusiasts from around the world to virtually visit Bruce Lee's Home in the Metaverse, transcending the limitations of time and space.
Our client also has the following requests ↓
1. Give back to Bruce Lee
Our client's aim with this project is to give back to Bruce Lee and raise awareness and appreciation for his significant contributions to Hong Kong and martial arts, as they believe that the government has not provided Bruce Lee with the proper recognition he deserves.
2. Interactive
If this project in the Metaverse is just an exhibition, it would be dull and unappealing. Therefore, he wants the project to contain more interactive elements, such as mini-games that allow the audience to participate and find it engaging.
3. Audiences come back and visit regularly
Encourage regular visits from audiences to the project, as one-time visits would be inconsistent.
4. Souvenirs for audience
After visiting the Metaverse or an exhibition, the client would like the audience to take something back as a souvenir, allowing them to have a tangible memory of this project. They can then look at it and reminisce about their experience in the exhibition or the Metaverse.

Audiences come back and visit regularly
Feature 1: Lennon Walls
We need to provide audiences with a reason to regularly revisit the Metaverse. In the past, we had to create a lot of content for audiences, but with the Metaverse, users can generate their content, making each visit unique. To facilitate user-generated content, we have implemented the idea of a forum within the Metaverse. We created Bruce Lennon Walls where audiences can post various media materials and participate in real-time discussions through different channels, anytime and anywhere.
Souvenir for audience
Feature 1: Virtual photos taken in the Metaverse
After completing each mini-game, users can take a commemorative photo with Bruce Lee to capture the moment as a keepsake.
Feature 2: Yes! Card (Photocards)
''Yes! cards'' are immensely popular celebrity cards in Hong Kong. By inserting HKD1 into the card vending machine, people can randomly obtain one card. They hold a unique place in the memories and popular culture of Hong Kong residents. Considering that the exhibition will also take place offline, we have created Yes! cards as commemorative items for visitors. These cards aim to capture the memories and philosophical ideas of Bruce Lee, allowing the audience to take home a piece of this memorable experience.
