The high-end Baijiu, represented by Moutai and Wuliangye Yibin Co.Ltd(000858) , has a bright performance. The real estate brands are four yuan, and dream 6+ is also good. Due to the repeated epidemic in December, the banquet scene in Zhejiang has been impacted to some extent, resulting in the weakening of dynamic sales compared with the Spring Festival in 21 years. However, it has gradually improved since late January, and the follow-up dynamic sales at the consumer level are expected to continue to make up. Anhui's performance is relatively outstanding. According to the channel feedback, the time of entering the peak season is earlier than that in 21 years, and the goods are more sufficient.
