Affected by the boom of the land market, revenue decreased, and net profit attributable to parent company was basically flat year-on-year. During the period, the company's revenue and net profit attributable to parent company decreased year-on-year, mainly due to the slow recovery process of land market in non-core cities and the contraction of the development business of the company's park.
