Neal Stephenson's novel Snow Crash first established the concept of Metaverse. I n the thousands of years since the dawn of human civilization, humanity has been confronting three major problems upon survival: famine, pestilence, and war. Men from generation to generation have experimented with different methods to combat these problems. They’ve prayed to Gods, invented countless tools, and devised different social systems – the problems above were not solved, despite the efforts – yet millions of people die every year. Many philosophers and thinkers believe that famine, pestilence, and war were part of God's plan when he created the universe. Humans will never escape the destined trouble. However, it is only until the third millennium year that we realize that we have found the key – the “Rosetta Stone” – to solve these three major problems, shifting these inconceivable and uncontrollable problems of the natural power to technical problems. Therefore, if we look from a macrohistorical perspective, we can seek new directions – what are the new problems facing humanity today? The Chinese science - fiction writer Liu Cixin, author of The Three - Body Problem, once proposed, “Humans exist for two possibilities: an external one and an internal one.” While the external possibility is to extend ou ing space deeply to the outer space and to con ntly prove our existence to the universe, the inter l one is human’s self - evolution process stepping wards the virtual world, from the carbon - based life t a silicon - based life. Are humans at a current stage f stepping between “the external” and “the interna One virtual possibility, o the internal life, lives in the Metaverse. The conc pt of taversewas established by Neal Ste enson in his science - fiction 22053095.3 235799 - 10006

novel, Snow Crash , published in 1992. The novelisnot only a work of art at the cutting edge of the literary world, it is also the frontier that has opened up a new conceptual world for the humanity. Metaverse – a virtual time and space for entertainment, work, and life, as well as a new module for humans to live within – a long - lasting world that is constructed parallel to the physical world through technological means. With the increase of communication and calculation capability, the development of the AR and VR technologies, the perfection of the blockchain technology, the maturity of content production, and yet to mention the breakthrough of artificial intelligence and machine - learning, Metaverse, once seems to be unreachable, is quietly slipping into our lives. As the borders of Metaverse are gradually being extended, innumerable “sub - metaverses” accumulate. Many a mickle makes a muckle. Human civilization is being re - shaped by the new cross - cultural experiences – between the Metaverse culture and the traditional one. 22053095.3 235799 - 10006
22053095.3 235799 - 10006 MetaWords Era 2
BACKGROUND OF METAWORDS MetaWords was born of Xu Bing’s artwork, Book fromthe Ground ; it continues its growth in the Metaverse. Book from the Ground expresses Xu’s view of an emerging trend in today’s written communication and an ideal of a universal script – treating every person in the world equally. Its legibility does not depend on the reader’s level of education or degree of book knowledge, nor must it be acquired through traditional education channels. Instead, it relies on the degree to which the reader is immersed in contemporary life. Xu Bing, BookfromtheGround The vast majority of written languages take shape among a small community – such as a tribe or village – that shares the same vocalized expressions. As the territory encompassed by the group’s activities expands, its set of expressions becomes one form of language in that territory. It can then further expand to cover an entire country or multiple countries may use the same language. This is the process by which languages grow over thousands of years. Today, the trend toward internationalization is making the world a smaller place, giving rise to the concept of the “global village.” 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 MetaWords 3
However, this “village” differs from the villages that first gave rise to individual written languages : the “villagers” now use a rich variety of spoken dialects and employ strange and mutually incomprehensible sets of symbols, while nevertheless living and working together . It is evident that the inconveniency of language has become a major human burden. Based most fundamentally on shared ethnicity, existing languages all evince limitations and lag behind or stand unequal to emerging needs. New technologies have historically accelerated human evolution. The arrival of the Metaverse will undoubtedly shake up the human condition, reducing the distance of human connections and at the same time accentuating the challenge that our writing system is facing – lacking adaptability or ease of communication under changing circumstances. Shifting between different languages when conveying a message carries the risk of losing accuracy, which further emphasizes the need for a linguistic evolution. Human beings are seemingly repeating the early history of the formation of writing systems, and pictographic approaches are once again being introduced. One can say that today represents a new era of pictographic script. METAWORDS CHARACTERS “Boy likes girl. Boy wants to give girl a flower. Boy buys a flower from the florist. Boy finds girl. Boy gives flower to girl, feeling happy.” Book from the Ground story example In 1990, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) announced the final version of the first group of fifty - five “Public Information Symbols.” From 2001 to 2005, the ISO separately published guidelines for the design of symbols (what visual elements an unambiguous symbol must possess, for instance), how to use these symbols, etc. This can be considered as the symbolic “official” recognition of humans entering a “contemporary age of reading pictures.” MetaWords characters, inherit their appearance from the Book from the Ground and are the smallest units in the 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 MetaWords 4
MetaWords language system – the singular characters that make up its writing system. These symbols are derived from various cultural scenes. Each symbol is a sign that everyone can agree upon regardless of one’s cultural background. The symbols are collected from all over the world, organized, and formatted by Xu Bing, who has worked on pictographic symbols from 2003 to present. Every symbol has experienced the change of its era. Symbols undergotireless revisions and adjustments to ensure they are consistent with the language system before they can be incorporated into the MetaWords lexicon. The oracle bone script from the early civilization, when linguists defined the script as a system of writing, only possessed 260 characters . Today, humans have already transitioned into a silicon - dependent lifestyle . The Metaverse requires a means of communication that is convenient, adaptable to globalization and which can transcend regional culture. MetaWords aims to invent an entirely new language system of the future Metaverse – The “Meta - language” of the Metaverse – by consistently collecting and organizing highly discernible pictographic symbols that have received the greatest consensus within the community. MetaWords will be constantly updated. Symbols from outside of Book from the Ground will be gradually added, modified, and perfected with input from the community and will grow with the development of the Metaverse – to achieve Xu Bing’s ideal of a universal script – treating every person in the world equally. BOOK FROM THE GROUND AND METAWORDS In 2012, Xu Bing published the first book in the world that used public signs and symbols, Book from the Ground: From Point to Point . The book tells a story of the protagonist, “ ”, the human figure from the men’s restroom sign), a typical white - collar worker, and his ordinary life in a day. During the process of creating Book from the Ground , Xu Bing invented a consistent and logical language system that is easy to identify and understand, using comprehensive symbols to tell a story. MetaWords is a language system born of Book from the Ground . 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 MetaWords 5
Therefore, the work, Book from the Ground , is a very important guiding document in the development of MetaWords. By referring to the storyline of Bookfromthe Ground and the methods associated with use of its symbols, inhabitants in the Metaverse are imparted the freedom to create their own unique works with MetaWords. They can even invent new grammatical and rhetorical devices beyond existing linguistic conventions, which will forward the goal of MetaWords becoming the “Meta - language” within the Metaverse. VALUES OF METAWORDS Humans have never abandoned the ideal, or the effort, of overcoming the constraints of the written word. I n an effort to allow communities from different cultural systems to arrive at a common understanding for any given concept, defining a new - born concept and giving it a “name” for the communities to reach a common understanding is important. In future society, as humanity develops, more and more new concepts will emerge. As a new linguistic system in the Metaverse, MetaWords offers a promising linguistic system that is built with a trend towards a mode of expression based on images transcends current systems of writing. It was the conditions of the formation of the “global village” and with the emergence of the MetaWords in the Metaverse that is finally providing the opportunity for a genuinely momentous adjustment towards the ideal of a universal script. Therefore, three fundamental values of the MetaWords need to be noted as follows: 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 MetaWords 6
First, MetaWords has practical value. MetaWords will be an open platform where people can participate freely. Future inhabitants of the Metaverse can input using their native language which is then automatically translated to sign language as the output . MetaWords acts as a “middle ground” between different languages, where speakers of various languages can communicate and connect . In addition, MetaWords will transfer values from the physical space to the virtual space. There are concepts from the physical world that alreadyholdvaluesthat receivesocietalconsensus. The MetaWords linguistic system will give these concepts new names and definitions while conferring respective values within the virtual world. MetaWords will also assign entirely new values in the virtual space. These are in respect to concepts that never existed in the physical world, entirely new concepts nurtured in the virtual world. The MetaWords linguistic system will give these concepts new names and (Character Arrangement) (Character Composition) 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 MetaWords 71
definitions and assign respective values within the virtual world. Metaverse is a unique economic system from the real world and consists of diverse cultural systems. All the high - value concepts will receive their “definitions” and “names” that possess societal consensus for the Metaverse cultural system. MetaWords is still at the beginning stage of the pictograph evolution, with sufficient space left for its community to build on to the concept. Its potential, its language genes, and its ability to reproduce are dynamic. It is up to users to continue to discover and realize new values. 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 MetaWords 8
WAYS OF PARTICIPATION Users can purchase MetaWords characters from the Lion NFT market platform as well as trade MetaWords characters and MetaWords works with other users. They can also build MetaWords works with MetaWords characters. The platform launched a web version of the MetaWords NFT creation tool in January 2022, and in the future, the platform will launch an app version of the MetaWords NFT creation tool, giving users the ability to create new MetaWords character NFTs. Once approved by the Flying Lion Lab, these can be traded on the market. The first NFT bundle was released on BSC. Purchases made from auctions will use the WBNB token; purchases made elsewhere will use the BNB token. The future Inter - Blockchain Communication will utilize Ethereum with its side - chain technology. 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 The Lion NFT Platform and Participation 9
A. Purchasing MetaWords Characters Users can purchase MetaWordscharactersat auction or through buying “blind boxes.” Auctions . After the buyer signs the transaction in the crypto wallet, the buyer will make an offer using the available WBNB balance and participate in the auction. Whenever making an offer, the buyer needs to interact with the smart contract on the chain (signing only, no - need to pay any gas fees). Once the bid is locked, the smart contract will automatically deduct the amount of WBNB according to the bid. The transaction can only be completed when the available WBNB balance in the crypto wallet is greater than the amount offered in the bid. Buying blind boxes . After the buyer signs thetransaction in the crypto wallet, one can directly use the BNB tokens in the account to purchase a blind box. Once the blind box is opened, all the characters contained within the box will be transferred to the designated address of thebuyer. B. Trading MetaWords Charactersand MetaWords Works Users can choose to sell at auction or sell for a fixed price. Auctions. The seller sets a minimum price. The buyer can make any bid as desired. As the buyer makes the bid, the buyer requires authorization by Lion NFT’s smart contract, ensuring there is sufficient WBNB in the respective crypto wallet. When the seller is happy with an offer, the seller can choose to accept a bid and sell the NFT at the bid price offered. Every time a buyer makes an offer, the buyer needs to interact with the smart contract on the chain (signing only, no - need to pay any gas fees). Once the bid is locked, the smart contract will automatically deduct the respective WBNB amount 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 The Lion NFT Platform and Participation 10
offered in the bid . The transaction can only be completed when the available WBNB balance in the crypto wallet is greater than the amount offered in thebid . Selling at a fixed price. The seller sets a fixed price for the MetaWords characteror MetaWordsworks.Onceauthorizedby Lion NFT,theNFT will be posted on the platform and become available for other users to buy. Whena buyerclicks“purchase” and successfullypaystheamount of BNB that corresponds to the respective Lion NFT’s smart contract, the smart contract will automatically transfer the NFT to the buyer and transfer the respective BNB amount to the seller. C. Building MetaWords Work Any user can create their own work by logging in to the work - building site on the Lion NFT platform and accessing the creation - tool which utilizes MetaWords characters. The work can be minted as a MetaWords NFT work. Users can keep, gift, or trade the MetaWords NFT work on the Lion NFT platform. 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 The Lion NFT Platform and Participation 11

THE DEFINITION OF NFT IN THE METAWORDS ECOSYSTEM In the MetaWords ecosystem, we have defined two different types of NFTs. First of all, each MetaWords character is a basic NFT which is unique, verifiable, tradable, and can be used in multiple Dapps. Unlike other common NFT products, the MetaWords character NFT not only inherit the programmability of digital assets, but users who possess the MetaWords character NFT will also receive licensing income. The other type of the NFT is created by arranging and combining MetaWords characters. Users can create freely using MetaWords characters with the Lion NFT’s creation - tool to mint new NFTs. FEE COLLECTION MECHANISM IN METAWORDS’ SMART CONTRACT MetaWords establishes a complete set of NFT smart contract clusters based on thegeneral ERC721 and ERC1155 protocol, which adds the fee collection model to the smart contracts, and determines the dynamic ownership and creator of each NFT. This is to ensure the fee collected by the NFT creators and collectors is maintained, and to enrich the 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 Technical Overview 12
enthusiasm of the community and the playability of NFT. MetaWords guarantees the scalability of smart contracts is maximized under the originalERC721and ERC1155 specificationsandreservessufficient space for MetaWords community users to participate in the ecological co - construction. MetaWords seeks to explore and experiment with the copyright and financial return of NFTs through innovations in smart contracts, so as to reconstruct the ownership and financial benefit of the traditional world and give creators more rights to collect fees to incentivize greater participation and creative excellence within MetaWords. METAWORDS MINTING A MetaWords character is made into a vector image, then converted into an array of bytes, and the data entry fields of the MetaWords character such as creator ID, minting time, transaction record, owner ID, etc. are recorded, and then its hash value, which is the unique id of the MetaWords character is calculated. The smart contract is then invoked to complete the NFT minting by storing the data related to the MetaWords character on the respective blockchain. In addition, when a creator uses MetaWords characters as the material to build a MetaWords work, and the unique ID of the character material used during that process is recorded. The hash of the work is then calculated, and a smart contract is invoked to store the data related to the MetaWords work on the blockchain to complete the minting. METAWORDS DISPLAY Based off the unique ID of each MetaWords, the corresponding information from the smart contract can be read and used to access the original data of the MetaWords through the platform's media application which in turn provides the token - Url link, which can be opened in the browser to view the image and information such as who created the work and the time ofminting. 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 Technical Overview 13
METAWORDS TRANSACTIONS Likeother NFTs, all MetaWordstransactions arepermanently recorded on the blockchain, and every transaction is open, transparent, and reviewable. Subject to local laws, users from any corner of the world can trade MetaWords securely and freely without any third - party intervention. THE UNIQUENESS OF METAWORDS Both the characters and the artwork will be strictly unique in the MetaWords ecosystem; to ensure the uniqueness of each created MetaWords artwork, the order of the characters will also be unique when combined, meaning that combinations using the same character elements and in the same order can only be minted once. 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 Technical Overview 14

The emergence of MetaWordsseeks to revolutionizetheentirehuman language system and restructure means of communication. This economic system has three characteristics: first, it is a globalized system; secondly, systemflexibility allows forcountlesssub - scenarios, deployed to different blockchain scenarios without any differentiation; thirdly, it will build a tight connection with the physical world. Therefore, anything could be traded in the MetaWords economic system. All MetaWordscharacters and the owners of MetaWords works are pioneers in the Metaverse, expanding the impact of language along with the Flying Lion Lab whilst sharing in the economic benefit from the Metaverse. MetaWords – the Higgs Boson ofthe Metalanguage – will be sold in the forms of auctions and blind - box purchases. A. ECONOMIC VALUE OF METAWORDS CHARACTERS Pictographic characters are the fundamental elements that make up the MetaWords language system. Future inhabitants inthe Metaverse will communicate with one another using the pictographic characters or phrases of MetaWords. MetaWords characters have the following characteristics: All MetaWords characters and the owners of MetaWords works are pioneers in the Metaverse, expanding the impact of language along with the Flying Lion Lab whilst sharing in the economic profit from the Metaverse. 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 Economic Model 15
Others characters that appear in the book Characters outside of the book a) Growth Value Flying Lion Lab grouped symbols from Book from the Ground into the following categories and set their initial price value. Each sub - category is also priced differently. The new price value will be determined by the users of our platform. The value of the MetaWords characters will increase with when(1) whenmoreusersuse andbuythe MetaWords character;and(2)whenmoreMetaWordsworksusethe MetaWordscharacters.

CHARACTERS OF METAWORDS b) Collaboration Different communities can create new works and collaborate within the Book from the Ground Universe, introducing more people from conventional fields, content creators, and Internet natives to MetaWords and encouraging them to join the Metaverse. c) Quantifiability MetaWordshas a quantifiable economic model. The value of any character can be estimated by rationalized equations. Value of MetaWords Character = Total Price of MetaWords x Frequency of MetaWords Character Usage = Average Sales Price of MetaWords Characters x Total Number of Works Sold x Frequency of MetaWords Character Usage 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 Economic Model 16
d) Scarcity Every MetaWords characterisunique. Each MetaWordscharacter issued by the Metaverse is one of its kind and everlasting. Once users possess a character, they can keep it as their own collection or trade it on themarket. e) Progressiveness The use of MetaWords in the two - dimensional Metaverse. Inhabitants in the Metaverse can exhibit, communicate and socialize with this language. All MetaWords language users will be considered as inhabitants of the Metaverse. B. VALUE OF METAWORDS WORKS Anyonecan build new MetaWordsworksusing MetaWords characters. The current platform supports 45 different characters for users to create, document and mint new MetaWords work NFTs. MetaWords works have the following characteristics: a) Scarcity Every MetaWords work is unique. Users can arrange and compose works using MetaWords characters. b) Documentation Value MetaWords works can be used for documentation. Users can use MetaWords works to document current social events as well as write journalistic commentary and opinion works. Since MetaWords character is a visual language that is derived from the contemporary society, MetaWords works have an inherent advantage for documenting news and composing journalistic commentaries. c) Publicity Value MetaWords works can be used for mass publicity. Through the composition and collaging into promotional and publicizing phrases, userscanuse MetaWordscharacters to makeworksthat have high publicity and communication value. These types of 22053095.3 235799 - 10006 Economic Model 17
MetaWords works can be used for a range of publicity purposes in, for example culture, business, entertainment and more within the Metaverse . d) Art Value MetaWordsworkshaveartistic value.
