Virtual idol and IP agencies

Shanghai Weiapu Culture Technology (上海喂啊噗文化科技有限公司) is the operating company of Bilibili’s virtual-idol business, including VirtuaReal — the virtual-artist project launched in 2019 with Japan’s NIJISANJI that grew past sixty virtual anchors and has ranked as the top virtual-anchor organisation by Bilibili livestream revenue. The company was incorporated on 19 November 2020 in the Shanghai free-trade zone with registered capital of RMB 6 million, fully paid in, under legal representative Zheng Binwei (郑彬炜); Shanghai Bilibili Technology holds 66 percent.

In January 2026 the business took state capital: Quanzhou Development Group invested and the operating headquarters began moving out of Shanghai, a change that reached the business registries in July 2026 as investor and address amendments. The VirtuaReal operation’s history runs through Shanghai Mengdian Culture Technology (上海梦典文化科技有限公司), VirtuaReal’s earlier operating entity, and a cooperation with ANYCOLOR whose motion-capture tooling the project’s anchors used in its first years; the same cluster includes Quanzhou Guoling Technology (泉州果灵科技), the Quanzhou entity under whose name the VirtuaReal brand’s verified Weibo account runs.
