Investment advice. Floor washing machine is an important track in the field of clean electrical appliances in China. We believe that the sales volume and sales volume of floor washing machine have scarce high growth rate, and the industry is expected to still have several times of space. We suggest to pay attention to Ecovacs Robotics Co.Ltd(603486) , Beijing Roborock Technology Co.Ltd(688169) investment opportunities in the downstream of the industrial chain from top to bottom, and Fujia Co., Ltd., a cleaning appliance foundry with a new layout of floor washing machine OEM business in the middle of the industrial chain (OEM customers include JS global life, Fangtai, etc.).
