For the Group, 2009 was indeed an extraordinary year, and the global economic crisis brought unprecedented turmoil. However, as the global economic environment becomes more stable; With the sustained economic growth of People's Republic of China (PRC) ("China") and the economic stimulus plan of RMB 4 trillion launched by the central government, China's economy began to recover in the second quarter of 2009. Due to the economic recovery in China, the Group prides itself on its high-quality products, mature distribution network, excellent channel management and effective business strategy. Therefore, the Group performed well in terms of revenue and profitability. 2009 is also a milestone in the group's history. After years of hard work, the group's business has continued to grow and made remarkable achievements in business and financial performance. The shares of the Company were successfully listed on the main board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the "Stock Exchange") on 1 1 9, 2009, and the public offering in Hong Kong was greatly oversubscribed. The listing received strong support from investors (the proceeds were about HK$ 496,5438+06 million), which provided a fund-raising platform for the Group and provided funds for future business growth.
Looking forward to the future, cruel market competition is inevitable, challenging reality, and opportunities are rare. Tian Tongren will explore a more perfect, advanced and competitive management mechanism with the spirit of endless pursuit, taking "technology, quality and reputation as the foundation of his career;" Pioneering, development and high efficiency are the soul of the enterprise, and we will create a bright future for Tian Tong wine industry with the spirit of "being the first". Finally, on behalf of the Board of Directors, I would like to sincerely thank all shareholders, investors, business partners and customers for their support. I also thank the management and colleagues for their hard work and great contribution to the Group in the past few years.
