Thanks to our keen news awareness, our team effectively covered major news events like the Russia-Ukraine War and the Shangri-La Dialogue. This resulted in timely and impactful content, widely shared across the Internet. In terms of original content, we have created numerous high-quality programs such as The Message, Eye of the Storm, Journey, and Extraordinary Path. These programs frequently make it to the trending list, sparkling discussions across the Internet. This not only enhances the overall impact of our content, but also strengthens our brand advertising sales. The collaboration between Phoenix TV and Phoenix New Media has also become stronger. We've managed to seamlessly integrate major events reporting and sales of integrated marketing resources, amplifying the synergy effect of the collaboration. Looking ahead, we will continue to deepen and refine our coverage of breaking news and major events, while also focusing on differentiation in content dissemination. Apart from excelling in current affairs and politics, we will continue to strengthen our position in social trends, legal matters, finance, and technology, aiming to secure our competitive advantage in speed and breadth. Even more importantly, we will further embrace and delve into social media channels. By utilizing various social media platforms, we intend to maximize the dissemination of our content and unlock additional business prospects. Next, Edward will provide a more detailed rundown of our operation in the second quarter. Edward, please go ahead. During the second quarter of 2023, we maintained our commitment to strengthen our media influence by dedicating ourselves to being present at major events. Most importantly, at the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore, our frontline reporter engaged in on-site dialogues and delivered several exclusive and groundbreaking reports. We were the first to break the news about the China/U.S. Defense Secretary's table dinner, the sole Chinese media to question the U.S. Defense Secretary on site, and the first to publish China's response to the U.S. Defense Secretary's speech. Our related video content achieved a remarkable total of 77 million views, going viral on platforms like WeChat Video and Douyin, and earning acclaim from other esteemed media outlets, such as Lianhe Zaobao, Bloomberg, The Asahi Shimbun, and others. In late June, during the Wagner rebellion, we organized a series of live broadcasts, providing comprehensive coverage of the event to help the audience understand its unfolding. This exclusive live broadcast became a defining moment in the coverage of the Russia-Ukraine conflict. On the first day of the live broadcast, we reached the top five on Kuaishou's trending list, with nearly 14 million viewers across all platforms and a surge of 251,000 new followers. We also provided real-time updates through short video clips for broader audience coverage. Our original co-columns, such as Phoenix Reference, [Foreign language], and the[Foreign language], offered insightful analysis of the event, garnering extensive sharing and comments on social media platforms. In our signature series, Dialogue with the World, we continued to hold conversations with prominent figures. In May, we featured an exclusive interview with Thomas Friedman, three-time Pulitzer Prize winner, famous American political commentator, and author. During the challenging times between China and the U.S., resulting in high-quality, rational conversations that aligned perfectly with Phoenix's journalistic style. Friedman himself highly praised Phoenix New Media for its professional pursuit, and the interview content received a widespread sharing by influencers on various platforms, domestic and abroad, marking an important step for Phoenix's Dialogue with the World towards global media stage. In Q2, we continued to enrich our commercially supported content resources and expanded our client base. In early July, we held the 2023 World City Brand Conference in Macau, aiming to create a world-class international forum focused on supporting the development of culture tourism industries, and promoting world-class destination brands. With our tenets, roots in Chinese culture, global perspective, we play a unique and dispensable role in shaping and disseminating city and the culture tourism brands in the future. Additionally, we expanded our marketing services to clients in consumer goods industries, including food and beverages, home improvements, and appliances. Especially to those venturing into the international markets, leveraging our contracted Phoenix journalists and KOLs worldwide. Along with our global network of resources and allies, we provided them with compiling overseas content and marketing execution. For instance, through our Phoenix Global Observation Team, [Foreign language], we tailored content in Africa, the Middle East, Japan, the U.K., France, and other regions for our clients, integrating local hot topics and the brand stories. These productions showcase our global content production and the branding capabilities, and continue to attract more clients with these needs. We also incorporate AIGC into our content. Our technology vertical launched AI Vanguard, an original program that utilize AI to revolutionize traditional video production, achieving success with five episodes produced and a total of 420,000 views. The show employs popular AI tools for topic selection, script generation, image creation, and audio and video generation. Focusing on cutting-edge AI content, it covers everything from news briefs to in-depth analysis, expert industry observations, and trend predictions. AI Vanguard is one of the first programs to fully leverage AI for content generation in the industry. We believe that AI has the potential to generate highly personalized content, catering to the unique needs of diverse audiences, while increasing our overall productivity. On our flagship ifeng app, we made further progress with AI-generated content summaries and AI-powered interactive features, making it easier for users to quickly grasp the essence of the content. Users responded positively to these enhancements, evident in a 5% increase in the proportion of logged-in users quarter-over-quarter, a 15% in click-through rate in the comment section, and a 9% increase in daily average comment interaction. Apart from AI-powered enhancements, we optimized the new flashcard feature of the app, enabling direct generation of shareable cards from flash news articles, thus facilitating social sharing and dissemination of news content. Furthermore, we introduced a separate recommendation algorithm and channel for ThinkTV's video content, resulting in a twofold increase in exposure and a 10% increase in click-through rate for high-quality ThinkTV content. Additionally, we improved the distribution algorithm for hot topics and the focus image, creating more opportunities for exposure to hot content. With these joint optimizations in recommendation algorithms and the content editing, the overall click-through rate on our app increased by 12%, and the average time spent per user increased by 8% quarter-over-quarter. In conclusion, during the 2nd quarter, we continued to bolster our media influence by covering major events and delivering exclusive reports and original content through our flagship app and across all social platforms. We also strengthened our monetization capabilities by upgrading our marketing resources and expanding our client base. As we move forward, our focus will be on aligning resources to strategic business units, thereby solidifying our position as a leading force in the media industry, characterized by both growing media, brand value, and commercial value. I will now walk you through our financial performance for the second quarter of 2023. All figures mentioned will be in RMB. Our total revenues were RMB 180.2 million, as compared to RMB 191.6 million in the same period of last year. To elaborate, net advertising revenues increased to RMB 161.8 million, compared to RMB 160.5 million in the same period of last year. Paid services revenues were RMB 18.4 million, compared to RMB 31.1 million in the same period of last year. The decrease was mainly due to the reduction in the content spending of certain customers and the decline in e-commerce revenues. Loss from operations was RMB 35.7 million, narrowing by 62.4% year-over-year, as a result of increased gross profit and decreased operating expenses. Net loss attributable to ifeng was RMB 31.3 million, narrowing by 67.3% year-over-year. Moving on to our balance sheet. As of June 30, 2023, the company's cash and cash equivalents, term deposits, short-term investments, and restricted cash were RMB 1.08 billion, or approximately $149 million.

For net advertising revenues, we are forecasting between $148.7 million and $163.7 million. For paid service revenues, we are forecasting between $9.8 million and $14.8 million. This forecast reflects our current and the preliminary view, which are subject to change and substantial uncertainties. This concludes the prepared portion of our call. We are now ready for questions. Operator, please go ahead. Thank you. As a reminder, to ask a question, simply press star one one on your telephone and wait for your name to be announced. To withdraw the question, simply press star one one again. One moment while we compile the Q&A roster. Our first question is from Xueru, apologize. Xueru Zhang with 86Research. Good morning, management. Thank you for taking my question. Can management kindly offer a brief review of the ad business during the first half of the year, and share your perspectives on the anticipated outlook for the ad market in the second half? Thank you. Morning, Xueru. Thank you for the question. Actually, in the first quarter, our ad revenue decreased due to the slow economic recovery, things looked better in the second quarter. Overall, the Chinese advertising market showed a moderate recovery trend. In my opinion, it's still facing challenges, and advertisers are being cautious with their marketing budgets. Having said that, we have identified the possible areas of growth. For instance, after the pandemic, brands are pushing new product development and promotions. We have actively responded to that demand, increasing marketing services for new product launch in many industries, such as automobile, alcoholic beverage, electronics, and home improvement sectors. Also, a lot of brands want to break through local growth barriers and get a bigger piece of the global market. We have been working on this for over a year, using our brand and the content's global appeal to provide advertisers which choose to reach global audiences. We are also expanding our share in certain client industries. For example, events like the World City Brand Conference and our cultural tourism-related content, have helped us attract new clients, such as local tourism bureaus, luxury hotel chains, et cetera. In today's market, with tons of different channels and fragmented user attention, advertisers are back to the core of content marketing, and they place great emphasis on top-tier media. Our game plan is all about boosting our uniqueness and media strength in the content area. At the same time, we are enhancing our marketing resources and the capabilities. I think our ad revenue will be quite stable in the second half of the year. Thank you. One moment for our next question, please. It comes from the line of Alice Tang with First Shanghai. Good morning. Thank you for taking my question. The company experienced a noticeable decline in paid services revenue in Q2. Could the management team please shed light on the future plans for the diversified business and the focus of the operation in the future? Thank you. Hello, Alice. Before delving into revenue diversification, actually, our primary focus is on ensuring profitability and maintaining a steady revenue stream. To achieve this, we need to strategically direct our limited resources towards the most critical parts of our business. Our profit centers and our core media operations is the key part of our business. Regarding our revenue diversification, the main reason why our paid services revenue went down in Q2 is because some parts of our business generated revenue, but they weren't making as much profit as we'd hoped, such as the private label brand for our e-commerce sale. We are not continuing with this kind of ventures this year. It's part of our approach to putting profit first. For our core business, we are setting the bar higher for advertising revenue. Our strategy is market focused. We are pinpointing our clients and their marketing needs and setting clear goals. We are directing our limited resources toward projects that promise better returns. In addition, we are fostering teamwork across departments to craft a powerful plan and the content that both impress advertisers and make an impact. On top of that, we are all about increasing productivity and keeping costs in check. These factors are the backbone of our company's healthy operation. Thank you, Alice. Thank you. Thank you. With that, we finish our Q&A, and I will turn the call back to Muzi Guo for final comments. Thank you. We have come to the end of our Q&A session and our conference call. Please feel free to contact us if you have any further questions. Thank you for joining us today on this call. Have a good day. With that, thank you all for participating. You may now disconnect.
