During the first two or three weeks of October.
Brown sand.
The consumer electronics categories were softer side.
Two factors.
An increase in online.
After the war and travelling demand.
Factset purchasing frequency supermarket tactically does that make sense and be.

During the double 11 shopping festival.
However, we've seen a decent recovery and growth rate.
Actually all supermarkets category.
Primarily thanks to our athletes and prioritizing value on their customers' savings on top of our convenience of one hour delivery that we provide.
Oh, sorry.

On the peak day of November 11.
We made a historic.
Thanks Ruth.
Especially if we are we've seen decent growth for the supermarket category.
Well, who own kwanza shelf like Hon.
When we gave ourselves is absolutely critical to them.
Once we got to look at the surface.
So it's hanging wanting more than take the south central and that's required some choppy.
Sure.
We shall between Houston and ship it.
Super Super.
Okay.
Overall, the consumption markets recovering.
In two different categories, however, spending and services, including timing and accommodation entertainment and tourism continue to outpace.
Spending in physical goods. In addition, the need for on demand retail is less prominent and outdoor fabulous foodservice consumption.
Your next question comes out that's either surface ships.
And then I think you said century nickel cool with it yet.
The overall.
The central.
So you can say about so let's take a look at.
So Hudson Bay.
Neither of these trends, we will continue to focus on consolidating our strengths on the supply side and optimizing the user experience.
To position ourselves for the increase and <unk> penetration in the long term.
And about which we are highly optimistic.
You can change our retention Alicia Richard the GT the kitchens.
Some good Tucson to the Cheese award, which is a central pool, two essentials without that you can pull to do so.
It's embedded in the system.
To provide you with an update on our cooperation with JD com.
J D D J and I don't know continue to strengthen our cooperation with <unk> during the quarter.
Starting with J D D J.
First we continued to penetrate and easier interface with the number of accounts should I use this quarter.
Core tax increasing by close to 40% year over year.
Let me tell you around Samsung we call you said that you will tender that debuted on local funding in order to ship without too much into the Chinese and Korean not much out.
<unk> 2019 to agenda item <unk>.
And then Jim sometimes unusual times and G suite.
So that's something that you kind of articulate what the timing on the program.
Our traffic growth on J D.
And outpacing our user growth as we gained access to new and viewpoints on the JD App for example.
Lbs feature is now being gradually integrated into that 10 billion subsidy.
Flash sales channels, which enables our merchants to generate incremental exposure.
So social if I'm in merchant ship.
Tim mentioned that tourists, it's essentially on par with MTV <unk> didn't do that you don't change it.
Two on teaching them with you and of course Johan Shelley.
Apart from the incremental touch point with gains.
We're making progress in the existing.
User interfaces.
So the search readout for example, easily J D Dot com has been testing.
Archived audio products and categories, including fresh produce and heavy and bulky items, so as to enhance user experience while improving efficiency.
So that takes money on when we shared with you maintaining in Tempe team.
<unk> I don't know who you are.
People material, which ends up being.

We continue to learn from that.
Cupid appeal heart function such as this we will use a slide that habit.
I believe so should our service not only provide JD users with high quality products and faster delivery.
If a competitive price.
This stemmed from our retail partners strength and the supply chain.
<unk> is able to provide a better user experience and all three dimension itself.
And services.
As a result, we believe that these new traffic allocation mechanism will benefit started off well in the long term.
So that's something that's happening now.
Go to Youtube.
We saw something that.
Youll see us with feet on the chip.
I need to listen to them and that's what he said so that's on the season.
Oh sure does advantage in terms of product quality and diversity.
As well as delivery Speediness is self evident so I would like to elaborate more on the price competitiveness of Orange Amsterdam Dallas.
So I'll, let you answer it sounds as that change on the podium.
Two times do jewelry, that's hung out at the moment they've.
They've got to do this over the caution is asking for something.
All of this potential sanction to Hollywood and transition to production.
So the years of experience.
And offline retail attain merchants, we are cooperating with usually have already built strong supply chain capabilities.
Which enable retirement you provide consumers with competitive process.
In particular and put our categories, such as fresh burgers and heavy and bulky items just mentioned.

So it's about Super League as shoppers, so that people think about Chile.
[noise]. In addition, conducting hotel business on top of their existing offline stores require will require little incremental rental and personal personnel costs well they tell us.
Given that lower selling expense ratio.
Significant room for our retail partners to offer lower prices and so on.
Should our channel and to provide our consumers with a more value for money items.

The next question comes from Thomas Chong with Jefferies. Please go ahead.
Hi, Good morning, Thanks management for taking my questions.
First question is about J D D J.
Non mix.
So can management share about the takeaway and the expense ratio for different items and on that front, how should we think about it.
Do the economics as we go into Chinese wonderful what are the drivers behind.
And my second question is about.
The old to all opportunities.
In China.
As we mentioned in the prepared remarks, the market size is huge but on the other hand.
We also see.
The competitive landscape.
He is also quite intense as well so just wanted to get some thoughts from management about how we think about the landscape and trying to turn a fault.
And on that front.
What is the long term.
That margin.
Expecting.
In.
In the coming years.
Thank you.
Especially on the challenges that you win.
The carbon tissue Kuan Yew J P D J D E.

Yeah.
You know how stable the challenge that you have direct margin.
Same type of TPI cause he can be definitely something fishy.
Thank you Tomas so this is.
Yes, your first question.
Jeff can take the second question so.
In terms of the monetization of J D P. J in Q3.
The monetization rate was increased to 10% in.
In Q3, which is the first time, we pass through like the 10% threshold.
Historically.
And at the same time.
In our consumer incentives was.
Further decreased to three 3%, which is either like decreasing juncture basis or year over year basis.
Thanks Pam.
<unk> cost.
Including rider costs packing costs was four 7% which is.
Decreased on a year over year basis, while increased Jiangsu.
Is it could it be cost seasonality summer campaign.
Campaign.
And in terms of the.
For example in that country attentive for immediate driver is still we will keep to increased commissions on our marketing and manufacturing of rate and then at the same time.
We will further.
Decrease our.
Consumer incentives.
Spencers and also operating costs.
Side to further enhance our.
Dirksen marching along year over year basis.
And also in terms of the last question. Your second question in terms of the long term margin. So basically as we have talked about previously so J D. J is could be.
And that netted to two like the traditional E Commerce platform, which is just a localized version so.
In terms of like the appreciating.
Operation profit again, Jamie generated through the platform. So we are a marketplace model neutral platform model. So it should be targeted as a 3% as a percentage of <unk> is our.
Operating non-GAAP operating profit for J D J.
Thank you Paul.
Okay.
I said the other way.
She's not sooner than that.
No.
So that's a good.
And daughter internal economic impact that you're seeing.

Well, thank you Jason.
<unk> syndrome collusion message, we call without it.
And then just real quick.
Since I could see that youll see the need.
Two quick questions.
Now I'd like to share some thoughts on your second question about the competitive landscape.
That's more leading internet companies are prioritizing.
<unk> retail business speaks off its great potential and we believe the industry can easily accommodate different players to grow vibrantly and their respective areas of strength.
Cumulative catch IBM saw some gaps where they can achieve chairman so you'll see units within them.
I think what the EU.
And the pipeline that you need to see students with some of the simple with the fulfillment.
What's your thoughts in terms of anytime she can reduce impact.
So it sounds healthy manner.
So that what I mean by challenging that sends out that's the message.
Especially <unk> stopping the total neutral zone.
Rachel.
So if we could squeeze your assortments issue in this quarter Q2.
So J D J, firstly, our strengths and extensive partnership with pay merchants remains rock solid.
This is a result of our positioning as an open end mutual platform as well as our accumulated know how and expertise and empower and retailers.
Various systems and services.
Mentions ecosystem with no. It is hard to replicate and short time other platforms.
And supermarket category.
<unk> on boarded 93 out of the top 100 tanks in China.
In addition in categories, such as smartphones and mom and baby.
We've also teamed up with most of the leading chain retailers in China.
This abundance of high quality supply and is the basis for us to continuously attract and retain users.
Additional new two new ships with simple Timna, we don't put the Chengdu.

Mitchell Pinheiro chooses to assist that Susan.

So.
Whichever mutations, which agenda situations in ICU Schindler.

So is that something you announced the opinion sort of the thing that comes out of the yard Shaw.
Interim Chongqing Tianjin millions of ports on our tissue.
So the increased <unk>.
These are big townships of Genpact delivered so that $2 million.
<unk> told you it's about changing that.
Secondly, we enjoy huge potential in penetrating more of Jd's gives us.
Currently internet companies are focusing on cultivating the mindset for LNG demand retail among our own user base.
Which means limited head on competition among one another.
This is Peter.
<unk> purposeful shop has with demand higher merchandise quality and the delivery speed I believe its more efficient for us to convert them into on demand retail consumers and we remain confident in.
In penetrating 50% of their J D user base in the long run.
That's the one that says when something from other tissues.
Nutrisystem Couto assumes in terms of where you need it.
So Chen Tong secrets issue that's ended up.
Johann look with just tribute to focus on the Saudi Tivo content carbon agenda, let me.

Thanks for taking my questions. My first question is a follow up on our management comment regarding the supermarket and the electronics category before to think I think the first three weeks of October and then taking those things rebound and so just wondering what is the demand trend post single state.
Is that you're expecting for supermarket and non supermarket category and then second question is on the cost of riders.
So can I understand the increase in the cost of writers is related to.
These intra city delivery is it anything related depending on the type of the chain merchants that you're servicing.
And which specific order demand during these tweaking that resulted in the higher rider cost do we expect a higher rider cost into <unk> given it is a promotional season and potentially coda later thank you.
Thank you Alicia solicit academia gesture.
Two questions. So for the first question. So it's just like the weekend. So we finished like everybody and then campaign so still there isn't it.

In Q3, basically because usually it's next to.
The summer season so.
It takes more to recruit and retain riders compared to springtime or.

So in Q4, we believe.
Year over year basis, our price.
Our unit cost.
For the riders will decrease on a year over year basis.

Unless otherwise noted.
The total net revenue in the third quarter increased by 20% to $2 9 billion.
Net revenues front I don't know increased by 29% to one 1 billion, mainly driven by increases in order volume of interest.
Liver research services to chain machines.
Revenues from J D D J increased by 16% to one 8 billion, mainly due to the increase in G&A, increasing on our marketing services revenue as a result of the increasing promotional activities also contributed to the revenue growth of J D. D J.
Moving over to the expenses side operations and support costs were too high then.
The increase was primarily due to an increase in <unk> cost as a result of increasing order volume for interested your delivery services provided to various chain merchants.
Selling and marketing expenses decreased to two 1 billion, primarily due to decrease in advertising and the marketing expenses and a decrease in incentives.
Kevin to the DJ consumers.

My first question is on how we're seeing the recent trends of growth.
Singles' day and based on your <unk> guidance, the sequential sorry slower year on year growth.
Do we see what are the drivers of our growth and how should we think about next year.
Along the consumption trends on <unk>.
Discretionary for on demand products.
And then my second question is on our cooperation with JD.
With that J D.
Rebalancing kind of traffic the 10 billion subsidy program and three P. Just how how it has the cooperation bean and.
We do we see any change in the.
J D traffic allocation to ourselves and any updates on the cooperation.

Do you honestly.
You can either ship for most of the Jimmy Choo.
We said that.
Thank you for your question Ronald how fast.
Give you a brief.
Update on the overall performance of our double 11 shopping festival as we all know, it's a quite long and that starting from mid to late October and running all the way through mid November.
Amber.
So during the first three weeks of October.
Gross inflows supermarkets, and the consumer electronics categories were on the softer side.
Two factors.
An increase in online.
After the war and travelling demand.
Factset purchasing frequency of our supermarket tactically to some extent and fee.
Demand for some.
Smartphone brands was not as strong as we had expected.
Now, let's see the tick.
She can element candela.
So maybe you could sort of sometime Woodside Tulsa team there.
Sometimes it takes.
So that's I'd say that's useful.
We have with our resource that took a chihuahua.
Yeah.
That sounds good.
Knowing that the more of them.
After all.
During the double 11 shopping festival.
However, we've seen a decent recovery and growth rate is actually off the supermarket category.
Primarily thanks to our assets and prioritizing value and the customer savings on top of ours.
Anemia is a one hour delivery that we provide.
Oh, sorry.
Thank you, thank you and our meals.
Do you see that flowing through.
So this applies also to me.
It's worth it to the tender.
On the peak day of November 11.
We made a historic.
Thanks Ruth.
Especially if we are we've seen decent growth for the supermarket category.
Well <unk>.
So there are several Susan absolutely Chris Giovanni.
Once we got to look at the surface.
So it's hanging.
What I can take that.
Sell through Central next issue claims some of its choppy.
<unk> way to food service.
Sure.
Super Super.
Okay.
Overall, the consumption market is recovering.
Going into different categories, however, spending and services, including dining and accommodation entertainment and tourism continue to outpace.
The spending in physical goods. In addition, the need for on demand retail is less prominent and outdoors and atmos foodservice consumption.
Your next question comes out to the surface ships.
And I think you said century nickel cool Curitiba, you'll see why we have not yet.
The overall.
Answer the central.
So essentially about so let's take a look at.
So Hudson Bay.
Neither of these trends, we will continue to focus on consolidating our strengths on the supply side and optimizing the user experience.
To position ourselves for the increase and <unk> penetration in the long term.
And about which we are highly optimistic.
You can change our rebates at point of lease.
Which are the GTD kitchens.
Some good Tucson to the Cheese award, which received a central pool, two essentials with either <unk> or 'twenty.
It's embedded in the system.
To provide you with an update on our cooperation with JD com.

Colleen you said that you have with them.
California, and the only two issues that are too much into the <unk>.
Not much out there.
So it isn't a key fact to agenda item eight.
Yes.
<unk> tons in June.
So that's something that you kind of articulate what the timing on the program.
Our traffic growth on JD has been outpacing our user growth as we gained access to new and viewpoints on the JD App for example.
Lbs feature is now being gradually integrated into the 10 billion subsidy.
And.
Flash sales channels, which enables our merchants to generate incremental exposure.
So in terms of amendments and ship when we get to merchandize since essentially to empower them to make a auto tends to dilute our kinship John.
John do you want <unk> Johan Sheldon.
Apart from the incremental touch point with gains.
We're making progress in the existing.
User interfaces.
In terms of the search results for example, easily J D Dot com has been testing.
Archived audio products and categories, including fresh produce and heavy and bulky items, so as to enhance user experience while improving efficiency.
So that takes money on when we shouldn't and maintaining and talented team.
<unk> you want to talk about which ends up being.
CIT should teach them again, Judy wants you couldn't get on the system.
And then in terms of actually backpack.
Previously known as nearby fully intact.

Thank you for your question.
Yes.
The next question comes from Thomas Chong with Jefferies. Please go ahead.
Hi, Good morning, Thanks management for taking my questions. My first question is about J D D J.
Non mix in Q3 can management share about the.
The takeaway and the expense ratio for different items and on that front.
Should we think about the.
Do the economics as we go into China, what are the drivers behind.
And my second question is about.
The all to all opportunities.
In China.
<unk> mentioned in the prepared remarks, the market size is huge but on the other hand, we also see.
The competitive landscape.
It's also quite intense as well so just wanted to get some thoughts from management about how we think about the landscape and trying to turn a fault.
And on that front.
What is the long term.
That margin that we're expecting.
In.
In the coming years.
Thank you.
Especially one chunk I saw what that event.

Well, meaning guy doing in Genk.
So a competition that you've got kind of a cookie.
Yeah.
Yeah, so it will be challenging.
Margin.
Same type of TPI.
So you can diversify yourself.
Thank you Tomas this is.
Yes, your first question.
Jeff can take the second question so.
<unk> of the monetization of <unk> in Q3.
The monetization rate was increased to 10%.
In Q3, which is the first time, we pass through like the 10% threshold.
Historically.
And at the same time.
Our consumer incentives was.
Further decreased to three 3%.
Which is either like decreasing on a Q on Q basis or year over year basis.
Thanks Pam.
<unk> cost.
Including rider costs packing costs was four 7% which is.
Decreased on a year over year basis, while increased Jiangsu.
So could it be cost seasonality summer campaign.
Campaign.
And in terms of the.
For example, <unk> 24, a major driver of steel we will keep you increased commissions on our marketing and manufacturing of rate and then at the same time.
We will further.
Decrease our.
Consumer incentives.
Spencers and also operating cost side.
To further enhance our.
There are some margin.
Year over year basis.
And also in terms of the last question in your second quarter.
In terms of the long term margin. So basically as we have talked about previously so J D. J is could be.
And that netted to two like the traditional E Commerce platform, which is just a localized version so.
In terms of like the appreciating.
Operating profit again, Jamie generated through the platform. So we are a marketplace model neutral platform model, so should be targeted as a 3% as a percentage of <unk> is our.
Long term operating non-GAAP operating profit for J D J.
Thank you.
Okay.
I said the other players.
She's not getting into it.
No.
So that's a good thing.
We will send the economic impact that you're seeing.
Congrats on assuming it's amazing isn't that sees a hernia density there financially.
So here the tinder inclusion message will go without it.
Just a quick one since I could see that youll see the need.
A quick question.
Now I'd like to share some thoughts on your second question.
Competitive landscape.
The fact that more leading internet companies are prioritizing the underlying retail business speaks off its great potential and we believe the industry can easily accommodate different players to grow vibrantly and their respective areas of strength.
No similar cats IBM, so it sounds absurd according to China, So you'll see units within them.
Sure.
Throughout the EU in Taiwan that we need to see students with some of the simple with the fulfillment.
Let's go back in time lines on chicken within Fintech.
So it's I'm talking in a minute.
So what I mean by chunky that sends out that's the message.
Especially the <unk> and the total neutral zone with <unk>.
A simple question.
Let's see if we could squeeze your assortments issue until this quarter Q2.
So J D D J, firstly, our strengths and extensive partnership with pay merchants remains rock solid.
As a result of our positioning.
And open and neutral platform as well as our accumulated know how and expertise and empower and retailers.
Various systems and services.
Mentions ecosystem with no it is hard to replicate and short time.
Other platforms.
For instance in the supermarket category, we've on boarded 93 out of the top 100 tanks in China.
In addition in categories, such as smartphones and mom and baby.
We've also teamed up with most of the leading chain retailers in China.
This abundance of high quality supply and is the basis for us to continuously attract and retain users.
Additional new two new ships with simple timber we don't put that for me.
So if we don't find them mature.
Michelle.
She says to us is that Susan.
Zone Cipriano petitions with the shoe too.
So.
Which are the mutations which agenda video timson ICU Shanda group.
The $80 million for Tim mentioned, a new ship.
Future.
Okay.
So there are some things so appealing to loosen things out of the yard Shaw.
Interim chunky chunky millions of ports on our tissue.
So the increase.
And so in the townships as impact diminishes as familiar with.
Central is about changing that.
Secondly, we enjoy huge potential and penetrating more of Jd's gives us.
Currently internet companies are focusing on cultivating the mindset for LNG demand retail among our own user base.
Which means limited head on competition among one another.
Diabetes users.
<unk> purposeful shoppers with demand higher merchandise quality and the delivery speed I believe its more efficient for us to convert them into on demand retail consumers and we remain confident in penetrating 50% of their J D user base in the long run.
That's the one that says something about the cheese with some.
Nutrisystem Macau to a choice in terms of where you need it.
So Chen Tong secrets issue that comes up.
Johann look with his tribute to focus on the Saudi Tivo content concordance. Similarly.

This is Jamie.
Poussaint tuition kimpton, Cindy Shenzhou can call their credentials Brooklyn cognizant, when essentially it's unsure what usage cheaper under you knew that neither.
And thirdly on top.
Market share gains.
Value of sustainable growth by balancing growth and profitability.
Through a combination of efforts in optimizing subsidies improving delivery efficiency and increasing online marketing monetization.
The ability of J D. D. J has improved significantly in the past few quarters to near breakeven.
In the long run we also believe that <unk> has higher profitability potential compared with other players task of significantly higher <unk> and online marketing monetization rate.
Thank you.
She didn't deteriorate.
Thank you.
Okay sure.
Yeah.
Your next question comes from Alicia Yap with Citi. Please go ahead.

Paul.
Thanks for taking my questions. My first question is a follow up on our management comment regarding the supermarket and the electronics category before to think I've spent the first three weeks of October and then think of assays.
And so just wondering what is the demand trend posting that states that you're expecting for supermarket and non supermarket category and then second question is on the cost of riders.
So can I understand the increase in the cost of writers is related to these.
These intra city delivery is it anything related depending on the type of the chain merchants that you're servicing.
And which specific order demand during this <unk> that resulted in the higher rider cost do we expect a higher rate of cost.
Into <unk> given it is a promotional season and potentially coda later thank you.
Thank you Alicia so lesser academia gesture.
Two questions. So for the first question. So it's just like the weekend. So we finish like the non campaign, so still there isn't it.
I don't think there is enough time for us to evaluate like that just three days.
Details to give you some color I'll comment for the post pandemic campaigns.
<unk>.
So in terms of the second question. So about the right account so in terms of the <unk>.
<unk>.
So of the rider cost, yes, it's increase either on Q on Q level or year over year cost overall.
Overall, and it's still growing robustly, especially our.
And I know this is growing by 29%, but within which.
Accounts and assets growing by five percentage.
We have discussed before so.
So this is just the cost overall and yes, it's growing in terms of like the.
The unit cost at <unk>.
Kurt.
The level for <unk>.
Jeremy level basically.
<unk>.
Efficient and safe.
Year over year basis.
In Q3, basically because you shades.
The summer season so.
It takes more to recruit and retain riders compared to springtime or.
The autumn season.
So in Q4, we believe on a year over year basis.
Union costs.
For the riders will decrease on a year over year basis.
Okay. Thank you you bet.
The next question comes from Lei, Zhang with Bank of America.
Please go ahead.
Uh-huh when he's done a backfill hospices, there's all of that.
With Eagle one pieces outweighs Oh, what metric can go just about you can say the Manhattan, Zhang Pete I'll, just go with Cisco quite Oh. So you can see one type ally to all my friends South now Oh God go and she says don't seem to always have to say it has elements I'll see you can probably see I cannot go check out ship almost as Antoine.
Sure.
Sure Jay.
And Bonnie and things like that.
That's something that supports a more serious threat to go up at yourself off on me and they say Oh Gee, that's not bad okay. Thank you.
For taking my question My first question.
Gardening, the impact from our pro worse, a little word of threshold awful, but spread the leeway to RMB.
That's K nine in Q3 and can you share more color all day.
Did I noticed that that we have just put out some nice semi related pay that number doing double the allowance. Okay. You gave us all a mole sauce on how on your momentum regarding life threatening rolled out. Thank you.
Yeah.
Oh that make the kids in our Windows 10 users.
And accordingly chip himself will guide Australia, the Tulsa excuse me.
Yes, I think John spoke of.
To conclude that Houston.
So could end up with something.
No particular bias in Tulsa police and keep us in banks on Friday advantage here.
So that's happened yet.
With that Sylvia familiar to send us E P.
Yeah Monday through Sunday, we don't do.
Thank you for your question.
As the end of July delivery fee waiver campaign has hovered ethically whole supermarket orders.
And after that we found.
Post conversion rates and repeat purchase rates increased.
<unk> remained largely stable.
Specifically and August comparator with.
In July the overall conversion rate of our supermarkets category improved by over 10% and then next month retention rate also increased by over 10%, while the Italy was substantially unchanged.
Do you think to torment him about that whole suite that GM it would essentially say.
And at <unk> Castle.
I think Chinese Chinese tankers for more clinical work with the tungsten that's useful.
Therefore, thanks to the initiative.
The year over year growth.
Okay.
<unk> in the supermarket category accelerated in the third quarter of 2093 compared with <unk>.
Second quarter.
And the program will be a long term initiative to improve user experience.
Yes.
So we didn't come into the tenure so European telethon that includes inbound visitation with our debit CGM, albeit it yourself with that Vishal.
And in terms of their P&L impact since the cost of delivery fee waiver, it's shared by us and our merchant partners. The impact on the direct margin of J D. D. J is and it doesn't it sounds gifts and manageable for us.
With support from <unk>.
The important thing to say that there's a huge shift.
So some of what she does that sounds too soon about that shaping how soot sensing champions tend to look at some of the hurricane type.
13 months' impact types with a focus on Super Con sequel.
Ago.
This all means so true what you say.
Thank you and we will do.
We know what that ISR systems out there to go.
Hum.
Which is where we see the truth of the shelf.
Now proven silicon Glen you sort of talk about that one.
<unk> agenda.
So also a second question about large streaming.
We've taken out the rising popularity of live streaming.
The single day promotion that just ended J D. D. J launched multiple live streaming events, together with merchants and brands and categories, including supermarkets consumer electronics and home appliances.
This was the first time.
Our frontline operational teams.
Engaged with three tenants are engaging with consumers to offer them value for money products deliverable within one hour and we did see initial results with some sessions, attracting total views exceeding $1 million and.
The total CMV transacted via live streaming and give them more than tenfold versus June 18th promotion.
I think <unk> got some on the 4 million tons of them.
I, certainly won't El Corte, <unk>, but you'll see some people in the second half of the CFO.
This year in the <unk>.
Now with that element to your question.
That sounds I think Toyota Honda, So Honda have quite the same pool Tibor.
Yes.
We can continue that sells tobacco with GM.
Overall, we are still in exploration stage for the live streaming business.
And to further optimize the process and enhanced our product capability.
Integrate lbs with live streaming.
The future we were also going to encourage local merchants on our platform to host regular live streaming sessions.
To provide our users with more immersive on demand shopping experience.
Thanks for your question.
Okay.
The next question comes from Wayne Zhong with UBS. Please go ahead.
Hey, Glenn somehow Hawkeye he's doing all the T. Max National Shan Shan Shan is always that you were saying that you do gentlemen, Doug I'm not sure who should be doing all got quieter months.
I'm not sure if I'll use teaching a tissue as I said, you do have ammonia, which you should not put hometowns, which actually shows you go that they'll have with somebody in charge I remember you said you do come in anywhere near the Chartwell now how do I have a housekeeping question on Chicago and amongst your line is open Josh actually that you do that in the G. M. D mix, how it'll be that you all know how gratifying.
My first question is that we see that in our revenue growth is outgrowing our J D. D day. This quarter do we expect that trend to continue in the fourth quarter of next year and also that the revenue mix shift to them, how would that impact our margin outlook in the fourth quarter next year as well and in fact, let me just housekeeping question can management share the agenda.
And a L b trend in this quarter. Thank you.
Okay.
Okay. So.
The first question. So basically we expect still a few platforms will grow.
Using similar speed in the following quarters or next year. So for the second question about JV mix. So.
The broader supertanker categories, It's Tom <unk>.
Accounting for close to 50% of the Jimmy amount, while it <unk> account for 40% of that total Jamie amount.
And in terms of the average order value so.
In Q3.
It will be years like Oh.
Andrea.
Oh, sorry.
250.
This is the update for Q3, thank you.
Yeah.
