In addition to increasing distribution channels, strengthening our brands in the global market and introducing new products in both domestic and international markets, we have launched many campaigns this year, including special gifts and special packs from Mogu Mogu. We also expanded the product lines under Mogu Mogu brand for the international market and gradually launched them, such as the four new flavors of Mogu Mogu candy and three additional flavors of Mogu Mogu Pretzel. The new items greatly spiced up the international market.
