\u3000\u30002. Based on the growth of base liquor production capacity, support the compound annual growth of Maotai liquor sales during the 14th Five Year Plan period by 3.9 ~ 6.7%.

The one and only investment recommendation: maintain the recommended rating: epidemic situation, economic growth fluctuation and economic structural transformation bring greater uncertainty to the Baijiu industry. However, Moutai has unique status, strong brand strength, large market price and factory price difference, holding the option to raise prices, and the ability to transfer economic fluctuations.
