Difficulties and opportunities coexist; the difficulties the industry is currently facing also mean restructuring and reshuffling opportunities for brands like Zhen Jiu and Li Du, which have been steadfastly developing with solid business foundations. We persist in focusing on a differentiation development strategy and resolve any difficulties ahead while at the same time realizing and capitalizing hidden opportunities within the challenges."
