Investment suggestion: from the perspective of policy, considering the current economic pressure in China, it is expected that the steady growth policy is expected to continue to make efforts in real estate and infrastructure investment, driving the expected repair of the market.

The accelerated transformation of financial management business will contribute to new profit growth points.
