Speaker Change #107: That is two elements.

Unknown Executive: At present, there are three main aspects of SOIP. The first aspect is that digital albums have the right to be listened to in advance. For high-value users, if they want to listen to a song in advance, it is a good contribution.

Speaker Change #109: Only less controversial sarcomere, the Johan <unk> audio show in Michigan, and I'm going to answer that one Sheila in Angola. So you're also asking them what are the chances MQ <unk> Charlie.

Unknown Executive: The first aspect is that digital albums have the right to be listened to in advance. For high-value users, if they want to be able to listen to a song in advance, it is a good contribution to this aspect. When talking about the key drivers of SVIP's business, there are three points. The first point is that our existing digital album business allows SVIP to enjoy the start-to-hatch listening privilege. This can allow us to engage high-value customers. If our SVIP customers said they'd like to hear certain music ahead of the start, that would be a great contribution to the value of the members.

Speaker Change #108: Sure.

Speaker Change #110: <unk> called out or do you know why.

If our SVIP customers tell us they'd like to hear certain music ahead of the start, that would be a great contribution to the value of the members.

Cushion: We are talking about the key drivers of S.V.I.P, business. There are three points. The first point is that our existing digital album business allows S.V.I.P, to enjoy the start to have listening privilege. This can allow us to engage the high value customers. If our S.V.I.P, customers they'd like to hear certain music out of the start, that would be a great contribution to the value of the members. The second point is that we also found that high value users can see very high value in the digital album business.

Speaker Change #112: But talking about the key drivers of CRT basis, there are three points. The first appointed at our existing digital outbound business allows us to enjoy these start to hatch deepening privilege data can allow us to engage the high value cross connects if our ask VIP customer data to hit certain.

Speaker Change #113: Zinc head start that would be a great contribution to the body of the amendment.

Unknown Executive: In the second part, we also found that high-value users have a very high demand for sound quality and sound effects. We can see in the actual operating data that their usage is also very high, so we will continue to upgrade our sound quality and sound effects later.

Unknown Executive: Secondly, we found that high-value users have a high demand for sound quality and sound effects. We can see in the actual operating data that their usage is also very high. So we will continue to upgrade our sound quality and sound effects in the future. Well, my second point is that for those high-value customers, or SEITs, they also pursue higher and better sound quality and sound effects. And we can also see that from our actual operational data, they also have a very high adoption rate for high-quality sound and high-quality sound effects.

Dr. Baum: Dr. Baum I call me in a bunch and.

And we can also see that from our actual operational data, they also have a very high adoption rate for high-quality sound and high-quality sound effects. This is also what we are going to do in the near future, continue to upgrade sound quality and sound effects.

In terms of the actual operation, the Doobie sound we launched in the first half of the year, our own genuine sound 2.0, and the DTS we just launched in July, these all have a very good contribution to the SYP in terms of the actual operation effect.

Unknown Executive: From a practical point of view, the Dolby Surround Sound we launched in the first half of the year and our own genuine Surround Sound 2.0 and the DTS we just launched in July are all very good contributions to the SYP.

Sean: I don't want to own iPhone Shang Danielle so I'll switch over to be joining Sean video women.

Cushion: We also launched the digital album business 2.0. From the application perspective, in each one of these years, we launched the Dolby audit. We also launched the audit 3.0. In July, we just launched the DTS. All those very primary sound quality will help to further contribute the value to our S.V.I.P, members. The third point is that for those low value users, S.V.I.P, we can provide the entire sound quality and sound effect to S.V.I.P, members.

Speaker Change #119: You don't want to do the same.

Speaker Change #120: <unk> continues in our Darling.

All those very primary sound quality will help to further contribute value to our SVIP members. The third part is for the content part. For SYIP, we have integrated the original long audio content into the content to provide services to SYIP. At the same time, it can also provide them with the privilege of listening to multiple devices.

So from the applications are starting in a 12 month Acs we launched all the audits and we also launched the audience <unk> two point town and in July we just launched Etfs or those that are a primary sand quality helped to further contribute to our CIP Memphis.

Cushion: Thank you for your question. And I think the cousin has already shared in his remarks. And when we look into the graph, we hope that in the near future, the growth would be much better than what we have on that date. But the most important thing we have to keep in mind is always the revenue and the profit. We do hope that the revenue and the profit, as we discussed with other few, would hit our full year target.

Unknown Executive: And when we look into the ROP, we hope that in the near future, the growth will be much better than what we have on NET-8. But to be sure, in H1 of this year, after a few holidays, we will see the ROP and NET-8 grow. But in H2 of this year, we're still going to make very solid growth.

Cushion: If we will be able to do so, then we will be able to continue to grow our subscriber base in a quality approach. Then you can expect what the result might be. Well, from the operational strategy perspective, I think we have already made it very clear, we would like to maintain the steady growth of our user base. Besides paying attention to that net page, we should also pay attention to the user retention because only by having the high quality growth of the subscriber, we will be able to maintain a very strong retention of our high quality subscribers.

If we are doing H2 of this year, what we are trying to do is that, besides growing our subscriber base, we will also continue to intensify ourselves and the promotion strategy, making sure we will be able to engage new customers and then to grow our subscriber base even higher.

In terms of promotion strategy, we can also pay more attention to the growth of the number of users for Baoyue. So, in summary, our penetration rate for Baoyue and the number of users for Baoyue for a long time will basically be the same as our previous goal.

Speaker Change #175: So it's only got <unk> hit other womens, but you shouldnt really a formula that I can may or may not be online enrollment one region theyre going to ours.
