New Year begins and all things change from old to new. Wave goodbye to 2018 and welcome a brand-new 2019. At this beautiful moment of bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new, on behalf of the Party Committee, the Board of Directors and the management team of Shenzhuang Group, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to the leaders at all levels who have been concerned about and supported the development of the Company for many years! I would also like to extend my sincere thanks to all our strategic partners and customers. I would also like to extend my best regards to the retired old leaders and colleagues of our Company and Best wishes for a New Year to all the staff and their family members at home and abroad!

2018 has been the first year to fully implement the spirit of the 19th CPC National Congress and hold high the great banner of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era. In 2018, the Company adhered to the concept of "Green Shenzhuang, Technological Shenzhuang, Cultural Shenzhuang”, stuck to the strategy of "led by the talent, driven by innovation, developed by operation", adapted to the market economy law of development, carried forward the fighting spirit of "Insert the red flag to the top of the hill", overcome the difficulties, blazed new trails in a pioneering spirit and fought for advancement bravely. Thanks to the endeavor, our Company has gained fruitful economic and social benefits.

2018 is the year that Shenzhuang Group started a new journey with a brand-new attitude. At the beginning of the year, we started utilizing a new office building to create new environment and seek new development for our staff. We concentrated on and sought common development with new thinking, new ideas and new methods in the new working environment. Our waves have been gathering momentum. Standing on the starting point of the new journey, Shenzhuang Group has been developed into a modern international group company integrating design, research, production and construction.

2018 was also a year for continuous reformation and innovation of Shenzhuang Group, and a year of common growth for all staff of our Group. We further optimized and strengthened the organizational structure, built an innovation platform and led the development of our Group. Facing the complicated domestic and foreign environment and the downward pressure of the economy, our Group always confronted directly the difficulties, innovated our operation, focused on the core business of the Company, improved our management level, integrated the advantageous resources and improved the industrial supporting facilities so as to strive for good economic benefits.

Year 2018 coincides with the 40^th anniversary of the Reform and Opening-up Policy. As the witness, practitioner and beneficiary to the Reform and Opening-up Policy, Shenzhuang Group stood at a new starting point and were ready to set sail again: spared no pains in exploring new market, strongly transformed our business structure, achieved new success of strategic cooperation, presented different bright spots of operation performance, successfully obtained plenty of bidding projects and received good reputation of construction projects and social honor among our numerous proprietors and in our industry. Brand recognition and social influence of our Group have been greatly enhanced.

In 2018, our Group strove for stronger and better goals. Thanks to the dedication and endeavor of all staff of our Group, we have gained our precious achievement. Shenzhuang Group is proud of you today and will be glorious and honorable of you tomorrow. I cheer for and send my likes to all our staff! Happiness is what we work together and fight hard out!

Look back and we are grateful to the past. Shenzhen has written a splendid chapter for the Era of Reform with its 40 years of development. Shenzhuang Group created a legend in the industry of decoration with its responsibilities, bravery and 32 years of military fortitude, which made a wonderful interpretation to the self-improvement image of Shenzhuang staff. To look forward to the future, we will, with a higher structure and a global vision, stick to the feelings of home and country in our hearts, and with the courage to show our sword and the fighting spirit to overcome difficulties, we will comprehensively start the high-quality development process of Shenzhuang Group so as to honor the industry and the times!

A nine-storied terrace must be built upon its lowly base and a journey of thousand miles must start with the very first step. We know exactly that to turn a grand blueprint into a beautiful reality, we must not only focus on our dreams nor on our voices. We must move forward steadily step by step. To realize the development vision of "century-old Shenzhuang, century-old brand", we advocate all our staff to never forget our original heart, but to remember our mission and to forge ahead with perseverance!

Jin Ge iron horses sign drums to seize the day and start a new journey. 2019 is the 70^th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. It will be a crucial year for winning the first centennial goal of building a moderately prosperous society in an all-round way. It will also be a year of well-rounded promotion for the reform and innovation of Shenzhuang Group and for the remodeling of the industry peak benchmark. Challenges remain, and the future is been expected. All those who set themselves on the strength will succeed. Only by hard work will we become better; Only by reform and innovation can create a better future!

Last but not least, I wish you all the best in your career, happiness, good health and good luck in the New Year!
