[Interpreted] Good morning, and good evening. Thank you for participating in today's conference call. On this first part, I’ll talk about our views on the market trends. Firstly, the resurgence of COVID-19 had both far-reaching impact on China’s economy and business activities directly or indirectly hurting consumer confidence and purchasing power of the middle-class families. Many industries have been [gustily] (ph) impacted, and the insurance industry was certainly not immune. Even so, we have some believers that challenges and opportunities co-exist. We still believe that there is tremendous room waiting to be explored in China’s life insurance market in the long run, and that professional insurance intermediaries as an important insurance distribution force still enjoys huge growth potential. The progress made in the past in the professional insurance intermediary industry was only to lay the foundation for future development, and COVID-19 is expected to speed up the development of the industry. It is inevitable and irreversible that the market share of professional insurance intermediary will continue to increase. Thirdly, health insurance market is getting saturated, and growth is expected to slow down in the next stage. However, with an aging population, the demand of Chinese middle-class families for commercial pension insurance and long-term annuity is expected to continue to grow, and thus opens up a huge blue ocean market. The key to cultivating and meeting such demand is to build a high-quality sales force, gain customer insights through digital intelligence, and provide customers with a variety of customized products according to their individual needs, thus prolonging customer lifecycle. Fourthly, we firmly believe our strategy of professionalization, digitalization, and open platform will prepare us well to seize the new opportunities emerging from the market changes. Hence, we will stay committed to pushing forward our strategy. On the second part, I will…

[Operator Instructions] Your first question comes from the line of Allen Feng from Morgan Stanley. Please ask your question.

Good morning, management. I just have two quick questions. First, what is the impact of the so called double recording practice on offline insurance sales? And secondly, could you just quickly comment on the new sales trend of critical illness products, as well as savings type products in the -- since the third quarter of this year? Thank you.

[Interpreted] Firstly from Fanhua’s perspective, we welcome these new regulations. We believe that it will help to regularize -- to standardize the operations in the industry and help to reduce malicious policy cancellation, reduce sales misrepresentation. And then secondly, short-term wise, there may be some adverse impact, but from long-term perspective, we believe that the benefits will be much larger than the adverse impacts. And thirdly, this regulation will also pose a higher requirement for professional insurance intermediaries to standardize their operations, and it will help to improve the quality of the professional insurance intermediary sectors as a whole. We believe that this double recording requirement is a positive for those companies who have already more standardized operations and have this strong capability. In the past, as life insurance sales organizations are mostly organized in the pyramid structure and a lot of the sales agents are actually working as a sales agent on a part-time basis, so not a lot of them have strong abilities in the sales skills. So critical illness, which is relatively easy to sell became the major products for professional insurance intermediaries. And as a result, the penetration rate of critical illness products has been quite high in China. So therefore, we expect that the room for further development for critical illness products will be quite limited, and we believe that the broader market will come from the demand from the 400 million middle class families or diversified family assets location solution. And as such demand opens up a new blue ocean market, but such demand will also require the services or more professional sales agents who will be able to offer customized products for the clients based on the individual needs. So therefore, our future market propositions and our major focus will be to meet the demands of these 400 million middle class family asset allocation plan. Therefore, we're going to actively pursue customer innovation and customer customization and product customization so as to make sure that in the future, this customized products will account for a majority of our sales. On August 26, we're going to host a new product launch conference or a customized product -- a whole life insurance product, which is [indiscernible] number one. And this product will be officially launched to the market in September, and which will be our major product in September. We already established cooperation agreements with six reinsurance companies, so in the future, we will work with those reinsurance companies and insurance companies to customize and design products for our customers. Thank you.

Your next question comes from the line of Fi Fin Wang [ph]. Please ask your question. Q – Unidentified Analyst: Okay. I’ll repeat my questions in English. First congrats to the company and management for the higher than industry growth in the first half. Here are my two questions. The first one is about the product mix. What is our current product mix, say the proportion of annuity critical illness and life insurance? And is there any change compared with the previous year? And next question is about the original strategy, which provinces or cities are our main targets and which group of people are our targeted customers? Thanks.

By 20-year APE, whole life insurance, critical illness and annuity represented 49%, 43% and 6%, respectively, compared to 19%, 69% and 9%, respectively in the same period last year. And by 30-year premium, whole life insurance, critical illness and annuity represented 69%, 20% and 7%, respectively, as compared to 31%, 45% and 14%. Our critical illness product, as this percentage of our total mix dropped quite significantly, I believe that there was two major factors. Firstly, in the first quarter, there is the transition between the new critical illness definition with old one, and after the transition we believe that the critical illness products are not as good as the old one. So therefore, the demand for critical illness has weakened after the transaction. And then secondly, I believe there is already a market consensus that critical illness product has reached by significant high level. So the major market for future will be the savings products. So we believe that the critical illness growth will slow down, while savings products will continue to grow. But of course, it will also take time for the savings product to achieve explosive growth. Thank you.

There are no further questions at this time. I would like to hand the conference back to today's presenters. Please continue.

Hi, operator, we haven't covered the second question yet. Hold on.

Okay, sure.

Those of the 400 million middle class families live in urban areas, therefore, our strategies have always been urbanization, and it leads sales force focused. And as we mentioned, we are going to implement our digitalization and professionalization strategies. And the major markets for us to implement this strategy will be the major cities. We have two strategic priorities. Firstly is the development of entrepreneurial sales teams, backed by digital empowerments. We hope that we can attract more and more elite sales agents to join our sales force. And the second priority is our Yuntong plans. As we mentioned just now we have a 14 Yuntong branches, and we expect to have 25 Yuntong branches by the end of this year. These Yuntong branches will be mainly located in first tier cities, including Shanghai, Beijing, and Guangzhou, Shenzhen as well as provincial capital cities. So far, we have made good progress. Thank you.

Yes, there are no further questions at this time. I would now like to hand the conference back to today's presenters, please continue.
