For a man who spent 18 years at HTC turning smartphones from mere business tools into ubiquitous consumer gadgets, Peter Chou knows a thing or two about nurturing new product categories. In fact, he had already started his second chapter at the company by bringing us the virtual reality headset before his last August. Today, Chou's mission is extended by way of two chairman roles: One at visual effects studio where he can "fully and deeply understand" VR content creation, and another at VR game studio where he is also an investor. This may seem like a weird match given Chou's prior focus on hardware, but to him it felt like a logical next step. After all, it's now content, not hardware, pushing VR forward.
