According to the preliminary calculation, the impact of the decline in fair value of the single investment on the net profit attributable to the parent company during the reporting period was about 260 million yuan, which was included in the non recurring loss.

The main R & D team of the company focused on two relatively large directions, one is the relatively traditional MMO and "MMO +" direction, and the other is the multi person open world and card types that favor young users. The optimization cost of this part has caused the increase of management expenses to a certain extent.
