The growth figure demonstrates that we are optimally situated to capture the opportunities in the market. We remain focused on driving momentum in our business, and we recently announced that we plan to commence our commodity trading business in Yangpu Economic Development Zone and launch a blockchain payment and settlement platform for online commodity trading in Yangzhou Economic & Technological Development Zone in China. Looking forward, we will strengthen the Company's competitive position over the long-term, including developing our global commodity e-commerce platform, building our own digital cloud warehouse, improving our trading settlement and payment system, creating a supply chain financial ecosystem as well as acquiring large-scale overseas minerals.
