We are committed to providing unparalleled luxury goods and luxurious experiences for customers in Macau, just like they expect and experience in any other world-class tourist destination. Additionally, as our customers' interest and understanding of wine and spirits continue to grow more sophisticated, the "Taste Immortal" tasting series grand ceremony has chosen to land in China's Macau for the first time, catering to the increasingly growing demand of our precious Chinese mainland customers.
WBO: Can you introduce us about DFS's current market performance in mainland China? Especially on wine and spirits? How many stores are there currently? Is the sales volume good?
Christophe Marque: The Chinese consumer market is a trendsetter for new trends; maturity among consumers is also one of the most advanced worldwide. Our consumers are particularly sensitive to network information; they have a profound understanding of international brands and trends. Delving into wine and spirits fields, we observe that there are many connoisseurs among Chinese clients who greatly appreciate rare wines but also understand them well. At the same time, we find that there is a large number of new customers eager to explore this field.
