The project utilizes the latest 3D scanning technology “SCAI” to digitally archive humanity’s cultural heritage, providing training data for AI and building a new token economy based on RWA (Real World Assets). Background and Project Evolution Previously, “LEGENDARY HUMANITY” aimed to digitize humanity’s greatest masterpieces using cutting-edge technology, teaching AI about “humanity’s magnificence” to preserve its value for future generations. With this update, the project is renamed “VIVI PROJECT.” Moving beyond mere archiving, it will challenge the creation of new value in the Web3 era as an “RWA token project” building a unique economic ecosystem backed by real-world assets (RWA). The Four Pillars of the “RWA Ecosystem” Provided by VIVI PROJECT Digitization via High-Precision 3D Scanning Technology “SCAI:DIGITAL LUMINOUS Technology” Digitizing humanity’s treasures and providing them as AI training data. Merging human wisdom with technological evolution. Adding RWA Value to VIVI COiN: Centered around the project token “VIVI COiN,” we plan to link RWA held by collectors partnered with “VIVI PROJECT” to enhance the project’s value.By using “LEGENDARY masterpieces” whose value appreciates over time as the foundation for “VIVI COiN,” we build a stable value base. Hybrid Digital & Physical Museum Collected RWAs will be displayed in both digital museums and physical exhibition facilities. Trading via the marketplace will also be enabled, enhancing liquidity as an asset. VIVI DAO’s “Buy-Back & Burn” Model The governing body, “VIVI DAO,” will use exhibition and sales revenue to implement “Buy-Back” and “Burn” of VIVI COiN. This will increase the token’s scarcity and promote long-term value appreciation. Future Outlook: Global Collection Partnerships The VIVI PROJECT is advancing the networking of collections held by global asset owners. As a first step, we have initiated the following partnerships and negotiations: LA MUSEUM: Holds one of the world’s largest legendary fashion collections, including Yves Saint Laurent, Comme des Garçons, Worlds End, Alexander McQueen, John Galliano, and Madison Martin Margiela. Major Trading Card Company: Negotiations have commenced with the world’s largest trading asset company. This will integrate Real-World Assets (RWAs) from diverse genres like fashion, art, and hobbies into the project, rapidly expanding the ecosystem. VIVI PROJECT Overview VIVI PROJECT is a next-generation platform that preserves and utilizes humanity’s greatest masterpieces in both digital and physical realms through the fusion of culture and technology. By indexing RWA, it defines new asset value in the Web3 era. Official Website: https://lhvivi.com Contact for Inquiries Contact: VIVI PROJECT PR Department Email: press@lhvivi.com

Overview of Speeches Delivered at Launch Event for New Partnership between Honda and the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One(R) Team for 2026 Season

TOKYO, Japan, Jan 20, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Honda Motor Co., Ltd. (Honda) today held an event in Tokyo, Japan to mark the official launch of the partnership between Honda and the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team. Honda will participate in the FIA*1 Formula One World Championship (F1) from the 2026 season as a power unit (PU) supplier under a works partnership with the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team.Following is an overview of the speeches delivered at the event by the following three executives:-Toshihiro Mibe, Global CEO of Honda-Stefano Domenicali, President & CEO of Formula 1-Lawrence Stroll, Executive Chairman of Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team*1 Fédération Internationale de lʼAutomobileSpeech by Toshihiro Mibe, Global CEO of HondaSignificance and starting point of Honda F1 participationIn 1964, when Honda had only just begun selling automobiles, the company took on the challenge of participating in F1 — the world’s most prestigious automobile race series. By overcoming numerous difficulties, Honda claimed its first-ever F1 victory in the second year, at the 1965 Mexican Grand Prix. Since then, from the mid-1980s through the early 1990s, Honda flourished in a golden era, together with Williams and McLaren. More recently, Honda has produced a number of dramatic moments, including winning the Drivers’ Championship title, together with Red Bull Racing.Honda participation in F1, the pinnacle of automobile racing, has been the embodiment of the spirit of the company founder, Soichiro Honda, who inspired Honda engineers to “commit to becoming No.1 in the world,” and to “take on the most difficult challenges.” It is also the starting point of the long-cherished approach at Honda to embrace difficult challenges. Honda engineers called up for the development team preparing for the first-ever F1 participation in 1964Mr. Soichiro Honda at the site of F1 development    (photo taken in 1966) Honda commitment to take on new challenges in the new era for F1In 2026, F1 will undergo a major change in regulations for both the chassis and PU. For the PU, the electrical power output produced by the motor and battery will be increased to roughly three times its current output, and the use of advanced sustainable fuel will be required for the engine. In other words, F1 is evolving into a next-generation motorsport that takes on the challenges of both electrification and decarbonization. Moreover, the F1 cost cap system*2 requires each PU manufacturer to pursue development efficiency to achieve the maximum results within limited development resources.In this new era of F1, Honda is positioning F1 as a symbol of challenge and innovation, and Honda Racing Corporation (HRC), the global racing arm of Honda, developed RA626H, the new PU for the 2026 season. Striving to become No.1 in the world, Honda will continue to take on challenges together with the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team.RA626H, new Honda F1 PU*2 A cost cap set by FIA on annual spending associated with the PU supply. A similar system exists to set a cap for annual spending by each team. Adopting new H mark and leveraging expertise of HRCMachines powered by the RA626H will bear a new H mark with a refreshed design, Honda adopted as the new symbol representing its automobile business. This new H mark symbolizes the transformation of Honda automobile business and will be used for F1 machines as well as Honda machines in various other motorsports (Honda intends to include IndyCar, Super GT, Super Formula Championship and Super Taikyu Series.)Furthermore, Honda will leverage the technologies and expertise that HRC amasses through F1 and other motorsports activities and introduce HRC-spec production models that offer further refined driving performance. This will enable Honda motorsports activities to contribute even more to the enhancement of Honda automobile business. By introducing HRC-spec models to the market, including a production model based on the Civic Type R HRC Concept, Honda will offer a broader range of customers with opportunities to feel the “joy of driving” and Honda passion and commitment to take on challenges. Honda views F1 not only as the pinnacle of automotive technology but as a place to develop its human resources. Honda engineers rigorously trained in world-class competition will return to the development of production models and create products that offer even greater joy and inspiration to its customers. 2026 season F1 car that bears new H mark2026 season F1 car that bears new H mark Applications and contributions of F1 technologies to the future of mobilityThe technologies refined in F1, such as technologies for high-efficiency combustion and thermal management; technologies in the area of high rotational speed, including high-output motors and large-sized turbochargers; as well as sustainable fuel technologies, are being applied not only to next-generation HEV and EV models but also to Honda products that enhances mobility in the skies, such as eVTOL and aircraft engines. To be more specific, expertise on sustainable fuels has already been applied to sustainable aviation fuels (SAFs), as well as fuels to power eVTOLs, which are currently under study. Moreover, technologies for high-speed rotating components, such as turbos and motors, have been leveraged reciprocally for aircraft engines and F1 PUs and are being further advanced through real-world applications.

From Computing Chips to Physical AI: Nobel Laureate Hassabis’ Trillion-Dollar Paradigm Forecast and 51WORLD’s (6651.HK) Industry Breakthrough

HONG KONG, January 20, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – In 2026, the artificial intelligence (AI) industry reached another critical turning point. Demis Hassabis, Nobel Prize winner and CEO of Google DeepMind, made a pivotal assertion: the true trillion-dollar opportunity in AI lies not in computing chips, but in “Physical AI”—systems capable of perceiving, understanding, and transforming the real world. Having earned a Nobel Prize for his breakthrough work on AlphaFold, which validated AI’s scientific value, Hassabis’ latest outlook has attracted widespread attention in capital markets. It has also brought 51WORLD (6651.HK), a Hong Kong-listed company focused on Physical AI, into the spotlight.Hassabis pointed out that current AI faces a bottleneck of "intelligence fragmentation": while excelling at digital tasks such as text generation, it struggles to grasp basic physical laws like gravity and spatial continuity. The missing "world model" stands as the final barrier to achieving Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). More critically, the poor adaptability of existing data formats leads to computing power waste and low energy efficiency, making energy supply a potential core variable in future AI competition. Physical AI, by constructing a digital environment that closely mirrors reality, holds the key to resolving this series of challenges.As China's first listed company specializing in Physical AI, 51WORLD's strategic layout aligns perfectly with this trend. Deeply rooted in the fields of digital twin and simulation, the company has independently developed the AES Digital Twin Base and 51Sim Simulation Platform, establishing the core infrastructure for Physical AI. The implementation of Physical AI requires breaking through three key elements: synthetic data, spatial intelligence models, and simulation training platforms. Leveraging its massive 3D asset library and 3DGS/4DGS reconstruction technology, 51WORLD has achieved 90% authenticity and 100% scene controllability for synthetic data, providing AI with data support that adheres to physical laws.Its AES Base enables full-scale replication—from micro-components to macro-cities—endowing AI with "physical intuition." Combined with the Clonova Interaction Platform and Aperdata Implementation Platform, it has created a closed loop from digital cognition to physical execution. In embodied intelligence, the ultimate application of Physical AI, 51WORLD has delivered tangible results: it empowers over 100 global intelligent driving original equipment manufacturers (OEMs), Tier 1 suppliers, testing institutions, universities, and research institutes with closed-loop simulation training solutions, helping clients build safe, efficient, and mass-producible verification systems for intelligent driving systems.51WORLD's resilience stems from its commitment to underlying technologies. During the previous R&D cycle, the company established a leading position in China's Physical AI market. With a new round of large-scale R&D investment in synthetic data, spatial intelligence models, and simulation training platforms, it has solved the cross-scenario generalization challenge of Physical AI—aligning seamlessly with Hassabis' vision of a universal world model. Financial data shows sustained strong revenue growth for the company, and the explosive demand for the 51Sim Platform underscores the industry's urgent need for high-reliability Physical AI simulation technology.Hassabis predicts that over the next five years, AI will enter the era of automated experimentation, requiring digital environments that accurately simulate physical parameters. This aligns closely with 51WORLD's direction of evolving toward a "universal world model" and integrating generative AI. Amid the wave of AI transitioning from the digital world to the physical world, 51WORLD—equipped with technical accumulation and scenario implementation capabilities—is emerging as a core participant and leader in this trillion-dollar track.
