In 2020, there was an increase in revenue but a decline in net profit.
In 2020, the company achieved an increase in operating revenue, mainly due to the increase in the price of cottonseed and related products while the trade volume of cottonseed increased. The decline in net profit in 2020 is mainly due to the fact that the price of cottonseed products is greatly affected by the market and the company changes its business model. Since 2020, Chenguang technology has basically adopted the operation mode of lock. The specific operation is that while purchasing cotton seeds, the company calculates the output of various products according to the processing data over the years, carries out sales simultaneously, and locks the processing profit.
"Through the lock-in business mode of purchasing and selling at the same time, we can realize the fast in and fast out of orders, avoid the greater business risks caused by market fluctuations, and ensure the stability of the company's operating profits."

After the lock-in business model is basically adopted in 2020 and January August 2021, the gross profit margin is basically stable; The gross profit margin of cottonseed products trading business was 18%, 15.31% and 12.74% respectively, showing a downward trend. Chenguang technology said that it was mainly due to the fierce market competition of cottonseed trading business during the reporting period. With the increase of bulk properties of cottonseed products, the price transparency became higher and higher, and the profit space of trading business decreased. In this regard, Chenguang technology added that "the company's business risks related to carrying out large trade business under the lock business model".
