The shortage of chip supply may be gradually alleviated, which helps the company sell in large quantities. During the reporting period, the global chip supply was tight, and the main chip DMD of DLP projector supplied by Ti was also tight. Affected by the shortage of chips, the company's price strategy is constrained, and the discount is small at nodes such as double 11. We expect that the shortage of DMD chips is expected to gradually ease this year, and the company may adopt a more flexible price strategy to help the company's product sales.
