I will provide the translation. Sun. [Foreign language]. Hello, everyone. The year 2024 is already halfway over. Our operations have remained generally stable, and we have achieved our performance targets, significantly reducing losses. In the second quarter, we effectively enhanced Phoenix's media influence through high-quality content and news reporting, coupled with extensive online distribution, laying a solid foundation for commercialization. Simultaneously, we continue to refine our products, optimize user experience, and foster innovation in both content and commercial products. In the second half of the year, we'll continue to work with full dedication to achieve our annual operating goals to reduce losses year-over-year. Now, I will invite Edward to provide a more detailed summary of our second quarter performance on my behalf. Edward, please go ahead. Thank you, Muzi. In the second quarter, we successfully covered a series of major events, achieving extensive reach across the internet. Among the most significant international news stories in the second quarter was the death of the Iranian president in plane crash. Our detailed reports included a clear timeline and a thorough analysis. We quickly produced multiple original pieces, providing exclusive insights into the crash's course, analyzing Iran's future political landscape, and discussing the country's military capabilities. Our original series worked well together to offer comprehensive and in-depth perspectives. Beyond major news events, we consistently produced original programs, ensuring a steady supply of high-quality content that garnered wide distribution and discussion, enhancing our brand's advertising value. The in-depth investigative series, Eye of the Storm, continued to excel in high quality, in-depth coverage of trending topics. It delivered over 20 original articles with over 100,000 reads on WeChat, and several with over 300,000 reads, earning praise for its commitment to objective and ethical journalism on controversial issues. Our original video series, Phoenix Lab, targeting towards a younger demographic, focused on creating practical consumer guides across various scenarios, addressing consumer concerns and providing quality oversight. In Q2, Phoenix Lab produced 23 original long videos, 72 original short videos, and two major industry event reports. One long video became a hit on Bilibili with over 1 million views, and the series achieved a total of 1.7 billion views across platforms. The Phoenix Lab's Bilibili account surpassed the 1 million follower milestone in Q2, establishing itself as a leading consumer product review IP. Quality content requires broad distribution channels and effective user reach. In the second quarter, our followers and the influence on third-party social media platforms grew steadily. Our team developed differentiated operational strategies tailored to each platform, enhancing dissemination through trending topics, interactive discussions, and live broadcasts. We now have approximately 170 million active user followers across all platforms. We have developed several key accounts on different platforms, with rapidly growing follower bases, and commercial value. For example, our Douyin account is approaching the 20 million follower milestone. The advertising revenue from this third-party platform accounts also achieved double-digit growth year-over-year. On the commercial front, we maintained positive momentum in the first half of the year. We expanded our effort in the public sector beyond traditional culture and tourism promotions to include local industry bureaus and associations. Our services extended from provincial and city levels to county levels, achieving year-over-year growth. In terms of international marketing, we made significant strides in meeting clients' needs for overseas expansion. Our successful execution of several overseas campaigns, such as a brand's international sourcing project in New Zealand and the various award events, resulted in widely discussed articles and videos on Weibo, Facebook, and Twitter. This effort effectively communicated the open confidence and socially responsible image of Chinese brands, garnering widespread recognition from overseas audiences. In the second quarter of the year, we will continue to establish ourselves as a leading new media outlet. We will focus on strengthening our team's professional capabilities, producing quality content, refining our product, and optimizing user experience. This is the core of our competitiveness as an internet media company. At the same time, we will focus on further improving our operational efficiency and monetization capabilities to strengthen our position. This concludes our CEO, Mr. Sun's prepared remarks.

To withdraw your question, please press star one one again. Please stand by as we compile the Q&A roster. Our first question comes from the line of Alice Pan of First Shanghai. Please go ahead. Good morning. Thank you for taking my question. So the growth rate of the internet advertising market seems to be slowing down, so could the management please share their views on the forward advertising market and discuss the relevant measures the company is planning on taking to respond to the current market environment, please? Morning, Alice. Thank you for the question. Actually, from the market data from the first half of 2024, the overall internet media ad spending has experienced a year-over-year decline. Despite this, our advertising revenue for the first half of the year has remained stable, with a slight increase, which is not easy. Especially in the automotive sector, traditional, one of our strong areas, ad spending has dropped even further. To keep up our revenue, we need to step out of our comfort zone and make breakthroughs in other industry sectors. In the first half of the year, we saw significant growth in key areas like alcoholic beverages, FMCG, and public sector. Our premium IP content and high-end interviews align well with the branding needs of alcoholic beverage clients, leading to steady long-term ad spending. In the FMCG sector, we have utilized our specialized teams and the trendy, useful content to attract more clients. In the public sector, we have been helping cities and counties showcase their history, culture, and attraction, making them stand out and build strong city brand images. Looking ahead to the second half of the year, our international marketing efforts also look promising. With the ongoing Paris Olympics, we are working with many brands on overseas event marketing. Our clients appreciate Ifeng's international image, content reach, and the ability to execute overseas campaigns, and we are confident we can continue to grow in this area. Of course, we have got challenges, too. For the sectors that are declining, we need to keep adjusting our strategies. Plus, with the overall trend of lower per customer transaction, we need to work hard to bring in more clients and orders to hit our revenue goals. Thank you, Alice. Thank you again. Thank you. Thank you for the questions. I see no further questions at this time. I will now turn the conference back to Muzi. Thank you. This concludes our Q&A session and conference call. If you have any additional questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us. Thank you for joining us, and have a great day. This concludes today's conference call. Thank you for participating. You may now disconnect.
