"2020 was a very tough year for us, as travelling is restricted
from time to time during the whole year due to COVID-19,
the performance of our experience stores were getting worse.
In 2021, we closed 10 experience stores due to their poor
performance to avoid further losses. Meanwhile, we began to explore
new business opportunities in e-commerce and automobile sale
industries. It is exciting that our new business has achieved good
results in less than half a year. In order to reduce the cost of
trial and error, we chose B2B's business model from the
beginning. Utilizing the supply chain and marketing resources
accumulated over the years, we aim to provide business
solutions for SMEs. Our online store, Internet
information and advertising services and automobile
business are essentially based on our B2B business model for
small and medium-sized enterprises.
We are very grateful for our success in attracting a group of
great talents and investors in the past year, who are the key
driven for the development of our new business. Although the
profit margin of our new business is relatively low compared with
our traditional healthcare products business at the
beginning due to upfront cost, we believe that with the
maturity of our business model and the continuous improvement of
operation efficiency, we will obtain higher gross margin and
exponential growth in scale," said Mr. Xuezhu Wang, CEO of the Company.
