3. Roadmap
Story:
DuDuLab is creating a novel about the life experience of DuDu IP. We plan to integrate 80% of the world's culture of different races, countries, and hierarchies into this 1 million-words-novel. The backstory of the novel characterizes the five stages of the underprivileged DuDu at Bear Island, after experiencing the death of next-of-kin. (Rebellious bear, Engineering Bear, Lonely Bear, Explorer bear, Dr.bear) Eventually, DuDu underwent its metamorphosis and grew into a dare-to-bear, dare-to-confront DuDu, towards the centralized government. As it says "Rebellious but no harm".

*DuDuLab has updated the novel since 9/26, on Medium

Community:
DuDuLab will be committed to the operation of the DuDu community. We will hold more diverse online activities in the community, such as Esports competitions, metaverse concerts, metaverse treasure hunts, metaverse exhibitions, etc., so that more users can participate in the governance and operation of the community. At the same time, we will also hold offline parties, NFT art exhibitions, Web3 entrepreneurial gatherings for holders, etc. around the world (Beijing, Hangzhou, Shenzhen, Shanghai, Tokyo, London, Berlin, Singapore...). As well, more DAOs would be incubated in the DuDuLab Community to build DuDuLab's Web3 Ecosystem.

Holder-Benefit:
DuDuLab will build DuDu Holder Community. DuDu NFTs of different series will be able to enter the corresponding channels in Discord. We will customize the benefits to holders according to the attributes of different NFTs. The holder-benefits include: the second-generation DuDu AIGC NFT airdrop, cultural and creative products around DuDu official entities, offline parties for global DuDu holders, free experience of Baidu AI platform, brand cooperation resources, whitelist airdrops of cooperative project parties, Baidu virtual person cloud experience qualification, etc.

Co-creation:
DuDuLab will recruit co-writers to co-building the story of DuDu in DuDu NFT holders. Co-writers can use DuDu NFTs for commercial packaging after completing the continuation of DuDu's background story, such as FMCG retail design, director encounters with custom brand coffee co-branding Stores, etc. DuDu NFT will be applied in more offline physical industries. Likewise, we will also buy blocks in metaverse platforms, and open up metaverse lands for holders to build our DuDu Island together.

AI:
The laboratory uses Baidu AI platform to empower story creation, including design, post-writing, etc. AI has given new vitality and creativity to the NFTs field, and DuDu NFTs has created a new operating model by Baidu AI. In the follow-up, DuDuLab will use Baidu AI model to generate the second batch of AIGC DuDu NFT to realize the combination of AI and NFT. Baidu AI technology will also open the Baidu AI creation platform for DuDu NFT holders as holders' rights.

Future:
DuDuLab expects to release the second series of DuDu NFTs in late December. The second series of NFTs collection will be delivered to the first batch of DuDu NFTs holders in the form of airdrops. Second NFTs collection will be implanted in the growth system and mutation selection mechanism. According to the holders’ holding days, the upgrade and evolution will be carried out. According to the different NFT levels, we will divide the rights and points exchange mechanism. Holders can spend the "holding days" in exchanging for the corresponding rights. And we are exploring the use of Soulbound-Token to manage holders, also we will complete the application development of ERC-3525 contracts in Q1 of 2023. We believe that DuDu Island will be able to appear in front of everyone in the near future...

4.About DuDu IP

At the same time. DuDu's combination with Baidu's Brand culture cultivates the vivid IP collection "Baidu Bear Family".

5.About Promotion

DuDuLab is trying to achieve the AI operation of NFT with the help of Baidu AI technology, including the generation of novels' backstories and illustrations, promotion, management of DC activities, WL filtering, and raffle. Numerous collaborating NFT projects could enter the DuDu Island and make friends with DuDu, only if DuDu novel becomes the subject entity of the project, which facilitates the DuDu Ecosystem, so that DuDu's forthcoming operation and utility would be among the Ecosystem. DuDu Ecosystem would absorb more UCG ecological creators, as co-writer to create follow-up DuDu stories.

8.DuDu’s Prominence

1⃣️Customized benefits to holders according to the attributes of different NFTs, including: the second-generation DuDu AIGC NFT airdrop, cultural and creative products around DuDu official entities, offline parties for global DuDu holders, free experience of Baidu AI platform, brand cooperation resources, whitelist airdrops of cooperative project parties, Baidu virtual person cloud experience qualification, etc.

2⃣️Recruiting Co-writers to create the novel together, after all the strong sense of player participation is conducive to the long-term sustainable development of the project.

4⃣️Baidu AI technology is also the utility of holers, followed by the accessibility of AI creation platform for holders. Baidu has invested in the AI industry for 10 years, with a total R&D investment of more than 100 billion RMB, and listed AI as the priority development area.

5⃣️Bear Island will complete the application development of ERC-3525 contracts in Q1 of 2023.

6⃣️Discord was opened on October 1, and until then the number reached 46k, with 8k online members and 255 boosters. Discord and Official Twitter is constantly keeping active.

7⃣️CryptoSimeji’s Floor Price used to be up to 0.3e. It plateaued at 0.07, but Market expectations for DuDu, the same company, won’t be too low.

8⃣️DuDu's splendid vintage style is of high acceptance in the market.

Wanzi Analyzing
DuDu's popularity is extremely fervent leading to relatively high difficulty to get the WL, which would require you to intensively participate in community activities, for the reason of CryptoSimeji's outstanding market performance. Baidu is dedicated to AI technology as the leading company in China, empowering DuDu with potentially vast development and imagination space.

Its Roadmap and future strategy are definitely realistic. Coupled with 15 years gradual moderation, this personal IP is well-known among Web2 and NFT's design is consistent with public taste. Reviewing from the latest joint activity, all of which have great effect on promotion, including Shibuya Offline Exhibition with BoSoTokyo, Web3 Music Festival in Hangzhou cooperating with Meeint and Metaverse Disco for DuDu NFT holders, cooperating with Peking Monster. DuDu would collaborate with CryptoSimeji in the forthcoming future.

Reviewing from holders’ benefits, there are abundant utilities of the first series of DuDu, including the second series of DuDu AIGC NFT airdrop, offline parties for global DuDu holders, brand cooperation resources, whitelist airdrops of cooperative project parties, Baidu virtual person cloud experience qualification, etc.

However, Cryptocurrency is undergoing the coolest winter(FTX Affair), and nobody can predict the level of market panic. We would suggest always keeping your attention on it.
