(II) Discussion and analysis of business conditions 1. New product strategy Proya: During the Reporting Period, we comprehensively optimized the product structure, continued to deepen the “hero product strategy”, and built a core product family to create a stronger brand. (1) Based on the increasingly mature digital management of the whole product life cycle, The Proya brand continuously upgraded and expanded the matrix of the existing hero products and related series, and launched a brand new series of hero products. We continuously strengthened the industry position of core hero products such as Deep Ocean Energy Essence, Elastic Brightening Youth Essence, PROYA Ultimate Repairing Ampoules (skin repairing), Elastic Brightening Youth Dual-Action Mask and Deep Ocean Energy Wrinkless and Firming Eye Cream, and upgraded the ingredients, formulas, and packaging materials of Deep Ocean Energy Wrinkless and Firming Moisture Cream and Elastic Brightening Youth Activating Eye Cream to launch version 2.0. Moreover, we focused on creating new hero products such as PROYA Ultimate Brightening Ampoules Serum (vitamin C serum), Advanced Original Repair Concentrating Essence Cream and Advanced Original Soothing Concentrating Mask. By enhancing the competitiveness of hero products and building a portfolio of different efficacy skincare products, we gradually built up product reputation and thus enhanced user loyalty and brand reputation. (2) We conducted more precise strategic adjustments in promotion, providing consumers with more valuable content to guide them in decision-making; optimized the whole process in terms of consumer reach, order fulfillment and after-sales; and deepened partnerships and broadened cooperation with influencers, identified more product use scenarios and selling points, and formed two-way and in-depth communication with target users. With our strong product competitiveness and a more efficient advertising model, Proya is shaping up to be a national product trendsetter and a new benchmark in the "scientific skin care" industry. Timage: During the Reporting Period, Timage continued to build its portfolio of facial makeup products and strengthen the consumer impression of the “professional makeup artist” with a number of innovative new products. (1) In terms of product types, we extended our brand strength in facial makeup and created two sub-segments, “contour” and “base makeup”, based on the major category of facial makeup. With our high-light powder hero products, “tri-color contouring compact” and “duo high-light powder compact”, we led a robust brand growth, deepened the penetration of such a product type in the market, whilst also taking a share of the market; as for the base makeup product line, we launched a Timage tri-color concealer compact and setting sprays designed for different skin types, deepening the brand image of the “professional”. In terms of product function, design and usage, from primer to foundation, and further on to concealer and powder, our goal is for Timage products to be part of every makeup step for users. (2) Leveraging the high-quality content of the personal IP of the founder “Tang Yi", we promoted the recognition of the product’s professionalism among consumers, thus enhancing consumer reach. In respect of product marketing, we promoted the confidence in Chinese products and highlighted the core of “Chinese makeup, original beauty” of our products combining product function, makeup effect and technique. In addition, we further developed and tapped into the Generation Z market.
