In a subsequent phase of the collaboration with Migu Video, the two parties plan to focus on establishing a sales organization, product optimization, and portal upgrade in expectation of bringing more innovative services to customers while continuously improving the social value of the overseas hardware and terminal business. Within the next two years, the Company and Migu Video anticipate that they will serve more than 10 million overseas users and more than 10 overseas countries, and the Company intends to gradually expand its own sub-brands with overseas hardware and terminal as a core line of business.
