At the same time, the long-term strategy of “Reengineering UJU Overseas” is progressing steadily and is expected to open up new medium- to long-term growth opportunities.

Diversified Business Matrix Continues to Improve, with Synergies Becoming the Foundation for Growth

In the first half of 2026, the online marketing solutions business continued to serve as the core business foundation. The Company continued to deepen its partnerships with core customers. At the same time, the Company proactively expanded its matrix base and continued to expand its portfolio of high-quality media channels. During the Reporting Period, the Company secured 181 new customers. In terms of industry coverage, the Company continued to broaden its coverage across Internet services, gaming, finance, and e-commerce, further expanding the breadth of its customer base and continuously enhancing the level of business diversification.

At the same time, the Company continued to advance its integrated services for user growth and creative content and the penetration rate of key projects continued to rise. The Company has begun to establish a new talent system, including prompt trainers and AI image trainers. The influencer ecosystem and local life business further extended into high-margin businesses areas, providing customers with integrated solutions covering the entire operational chain from market promotion, brand marketing, influencer-driven product recommendations, and IP development to live-streaming operations.

By consolidating upstream multimodal AI Token resources, the AI Token Operation and Distribution Services business delivers professional AI support to customers. During the Reporting Period, token consumption significantly exceeded expectations.

As the various business units continue to expand, the Company’s business structure is shifting from being driven by a single business to synergistic development across diversified businesses. Going forward, the Company will further extend its capabilities to both upstream and downstream units of the industry chain. Through the reengineering of middle-platform processes, the iterative upgrading of tools, and the synergistic evolution of both the technical and organizational middle platforms, the Company will continuously improve operational efficiency and overall risk resilience, laying a solid foundation for the long-term and steady development of its businesses.

From the Domestic Business Foundation to Overseas Growth, the “Reengineering UJU Overseas” Strategy Sets Sail

While the diversified domestic business matrix continues to improve, overseas markets are becoming an important source of growth for the Company.

Following focused operations, the Company’s overseas expansion team has achieved phased progress in areas such as localized delivery, market expansion, and closed-loop business operations, and its overseas business capability system has essentially taken shape. On this basis, the Company formally proposed the long-term strategy of “Reengineering UJU Overseas”, with a plan to scale up and replicate globally its mature experience proven in the domestic market, thereby establishing its overseas business as the Group’s second growth engine.

In terms of specific business progress, overseas short drama operations have become an important breakthrough point for the Company’s overseas business. In 2026, the Company continued to expand its presence in the overseas short drama unit. By further integrating high-quality external resources, it has enriched its content reserves in the overseas short drama sector, further elevating its comprehensive competitiveness. At the same time, the Company established a preliminary content copyright center, with its business covering commissioned productions, in-house productions, and IP adaptations. The business scope covers the international distribution of domestic dramas and the production of local overseas dramas, marking the Company’s initial establishment of a closed-loop business model encompassing “content production — material output — copyright compliance”. Currently, monthly production capacity has reached nearly 200 short dramas. Going forward, the Company will further release production capacity and enhance production efficiency by leveraging its self-developed AI Agent and AI workflows.

In addition to the short drama business, the Company’s cross-border merchandise operation and supply of overseas creative contents also maintained steady growth. In the first half of 2026, the Company recorded a GMV of nearly RMB28 million, representing a 25% year-on-year increase. The average daily number of livestream sessions and host productivity increased significantly, with a repeat purchase rate exceeding 50% during the period. The supply of overseas creative contents business expanded its reach into major Southeast Asian markets such as Thailand, Indonesia, and the Philippines, and further into regions such as South America.

Overall, the Company’s overseas business is evolving from the stage of individual business expansion toward a systematic overseas expansion model featuring synergies across content, channels, operations, and technological capabilities, providing a business foundation for the further implementation of the “Reengineering UJU Overseas” strategy.

AI Drives Comprehensive Business Upgrades, Evolving from an Efficiency Tool to a Core Operating Capability

As the business matrix continues to expand and the overseas business enters a critical stage of large-scale development, AI application capabilities are gradually becoming an important technological support connecting different business units and improving overall operational efficiency. Based on this change, the Company has deeply embedded AI into every stage of the workflow from user insights to service delivery. The Company launched the FDE (Forward Deployed Engineer) business delivery model, truly “bringing AI into the business to address business problems and create business value”.

In the first half of 2026, the Company launched “Juguang Theater”, an integrated platform for AI-animated drama productionan, and continued to upgrade “U-Engine”, the intelligent marketing delivery platform and “U-Crane”, the AI-powered content creation platform.

“Juguang Theater” covers script management, content asset management, storyboard and shot list generation, automated narration generation, cost accounting, and online team collaboration. The platform enables unified management and shared reuse of production assets, including characters, scenes, storyboards, shots, and voice, further advancing animated drama production toward industrialization.

U-Engine has achieved enterprise-level AI Agent-powered intelligent management. It further enhances automation in refined management of content assets, intelligent delivery and real-time monitoring, and omnichannel data real-time monitoring and analysis. It consolidates cross-platform data, enables real-time monitoring of delivery data, and automatically adjusts bidding and budget allocation strategies based on performance data.

In creative production, U-Crane continued to interface with the mainstream AI tool ecosystem, including DeepSeek, Seedance, Kling, and Vidu, and incorporated the relevant AI capabilities into daily workflows. By the end of the Reporting Period, U-Crane generated on average over 400,000 pieces of content per month, with the production cost per unit of content decreasing by a further 62% compared to 2025.

This means that AI is evolving from a tool focused solely on cost reduction and efficiency improvement into a core operating capability covering content production, marketing delivery, data analytics, and business delivery. Particularly for content-based businesses such as creative content and overseas short dramas, the further integration of AI capabilities with the Company’s established content copyright system and production system is expected to create stronger capabilities for scalable content supply.

Outlook: Driving Growth Through Synergy, Expanding Growth Through Overseas Markets, and Empowering Development with AI

Looking ahead, the Company will continue to deepen synergies across the six core business units, further deepen customer cooperation, extend its content, channel, technological, and organizational capabilities to both upstream and downstream units of the business chain, broaden application scenarios, and continuously identify new profit growth points. Through the reengineering of middle-platform processes and the iterative upgrading of tools, the Company will continuously improve operational efficiency and service quality, laying a solid foundation for continued growth in business scale.

Building on the synergistic development of its domestic businesses, the Company will further accelerate the implementation of the “Reengineering UJU Overseas” strategy and position overseas markets as an important source of future business growth. With a focus on the overseas short drama business, the Company will continue to prioritize three key areas of the technological foundation, overseas advertising campaigns, and the content supply chain. With respect to technology, the Company will iteratively upgrade user products, data analytics, and distribution systems to build a technology middle platform that supports scalable growth across multiple businesses. Regarding overseas advertising and traffic acquisition, the Company will further strengthen its professional teams and enhance its ability to capture opportunities in overseas markets. On the content side, leveraging its in-house content copyright center, the Company will further improve the complete industrial system encompassing “scriptwriting — contracting — production — distribution”, and build a global AI-powered short drama content supply chain.

The Company’s overseas product business will continue to expand product categories and systematically expand into overseas regional markets and sales platforms. It will deepen refined operations, improve conversion rates in live-streaming, and continuously enhance user acquisition, retention, and monetization capabilities. At the same time, the Company will comprehensively enhance supply chain responsiveness and order delivery capabilities, while continuously strengthening user loyalty and lifetime value through refined user community management, thereby driving steady growth in the overseas product business.

Alongside the expansion of its overseas business, AI will continue to empower the Company’s various businesses. Going forward, the Company will adhere to the philosophy of “integrating AI into business operations, solving business problems, and creating business value”, continuously iterate on and optimise core AI application platforms such as “Juguang Theater”, “U-Engine”, and “U-Crane”, and further integrate AI capabilities into key areas including content production, marketing delivery, data analytics, and business delivery. At the same time, the Company will continue to encourage employees to update their knowledge frameworks, refine their professional skills, and enhance their ability to apply cutting-edge AI technologies, further unleashing work efficiency and business value.

2026 is both a critical year for the accelerated shift in the industry’s growth paradigm and an important stage in the Group’s strategic upgrade. Looking ahead, the Company will take synergetic business development as its foundation, overseas expansion as a source of growth, and AI technologies as the core driving force to fully implement all development plans, seize the industry’s window of opportunity, continuously improve operational quality and growth resilience, and strive to deliver higher-quality, more resilient business results in 2026.

Faith: The Spark Born by the Yudu Riverside

Published

on

By

BEIJING, Oct. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — An interview from China.org.cn with Wang Xiaohui and David Ferguson on the Long March:

David Ferguson:

This is the Yudu River. One dusk in October, 1934, more than 86,000 soldiers of the Red Army crossed this river and embarked on the Long March, a two-year saga that has left its mark in history.

Yet, lingering here by the river, I am struck by a simple question: If you have faith in a bright future, and reality seems to thwart you at every turn, where do you find the moral strength to keep believing?

Wang Xiaohui:

At dusk on Oct. 17, 1934, an army of more than 86,000 troops gathered along the banks of the Yudu River. Over 800 boats of all sizes floated on the water, bound together with planks collected from villagers’ home gates, timber beams, and even coffin boards reserved for elderly locals. The people of Yudu built this pontoon bridge, determined to help the army led by the Communist Party of China (CPC) cross the river.

At that time, no one knew that the great expedition embarked upon by the banks of the Yudu River would go on to transform China and exert far-reaching influence across the world.

China in the 1920s and 1930s was plagued by chaos and despair.

The Kuomintang (KMT), the ruling party back then, was not capable of unifying the nation, leaving warlords locked in endless fighting. In 1931, Japanese invaders launched an assault on northeastern China, beginning their invasion. Crushed under domestic turbulence and foreign aggression, countless civilians were displaced, with many even starving to death on the streets; in certain regions, severe drought resulted in zero harvests, yet the farmers were forced to pay land taxes assessed for more than a decade into the future.

Amid this turmoil, the only glimmer of hope for the Chinese nation was kindled by the revolution ignited by the Communist Party of China.

The CPC, dedicated to winning liberation for the people and national independence, built contingents of workers’ and peasants’ Red Army troops and revolutionary base areas across the countryside. Impoverished farmers were granted land ownership, as well as unprecedented political dignity. On Nov. 7, 1931, the Chinese Soviet Republic was officially proclaimed in Ruijin, then a small village in southeastern China’s Jiangxi Province, establishing a Soviet system under which workers, peasants and soldiers elected representatives to run regional affairs and make policies.

The communist ideal of a fair society free from exploitation and equality for all blazed like a spark in the darkness; it kindled hopes among impoverished Chinese and became the wellspring of faith that enabled the Red Army — a force made up of poor workers and peasants — to overcome all hardships in the days to come.

Yet, bright as the spark was, it burned thin and fragile at times. Could this flame still endure when the ideals it carried were repeatedly battered by harsh reality?

In September 1933, flocks of warplanes clouded the skies over the Red Army’s revolutionary base areas. By then, Japanese invaders were steadily advancing towards North China, but Chiang Kai-shek’s KMT turned a blind eye to the looming national crisis. They mobilized over a million troops and more than 200 aircraft to launch a massive offensive at the Red Army’s base areas. Over the previous three years, Chiang Kai-shek had mounted four major military “encirclement” campaigns aimed at exterminating the Red Army, but all ended in failure. He was desperate for a pivotal victory to restore his prestige and to wipe out the CPC and the Red Army.

At the time, the commander of the Red Army abandoned mobile warfare tactics pioneered by Mao Zedong and other commanders, opting instead for rigid positional warfare involving conventional head-on clashes. But the reality was, some Red Army units didn’t even possess a single light machine gun; how could they confront the heavily-armed KMT army head-on?

Zhong Ming, a Red Army medic, could never erase the memories of gravely wounded soldiers being carried to his aid station. He remembered how a soldier whose chest was blown open begged his comrades to end his life. At the frontline, a whole battalion of Red Army soldiers religiously followed orders to defend crude earth-and-wood bunkers, but under the constant barrage of KMT artillery and airstrikes, every soldier in the battalion laid down their lives; not a single man survived.

What’s more heart-wrenching is that no matter how fearlessly the Red Army fought, the steep imbalance in military strength, paired with erroneous military command led to irreversible losses. By October 1934, the KMT’s iron-clad encirclement closed menacingly around Ruijin.

Faced with this dead-end, what decision would you make?

This stood as the most agonizing decision for the Red Army. The biggest challenge lay not in sacrificing one’s life for an ideal, but in finding a way to keep the revolutionary cause alive.

To stay meant defeat — the Red Army had no room to maneuver within the Central Revolutionary Base Area. To break through the encirclement, however slim the odds, offered a fighting chance. Preserving the Red Army as a living force mattered much more than clinging to isolated strongholds. Where the spark survives, the path ahead remains lit.

The air already turned chilly in October. Units of the Central Red Army assembled in Yudu to prepare for a strategic shift. The plan was kept strictly classified; none of the soldiers knew they were evacuating the base areas, only sensing an unusual vibe.

At dusk on Oct. 17, crowds lined up at the Yudu riverbank. Tens of thousands of villagers flocked from every corner to see the Red Army off. They walked alongside the marching columns, slipping food like eggs and glutinous rice balls into the soldiers’ pockets, praying for their swift homecoming.

The main force of the Central Red Army set off. Within days, they left behind revolutionary base areas where they had survived, grown and taken root. No one anticipated that the journey they embarked on would become the Long March, a trek spanning over 10 provinces. Still less could anyone imagine that this journey would ultimately pave the way for a brand-new China.

Looking back on this chapter of history, many claim that the Red Army only set out on this expedition because the enemies left them no other choice. To a degree, yes, the Long March was indeed a forced strategic shift, yet this fact does nothing to diminish its greatness and glory.

The ordinary Red Army soldiers had no idea how far they would march, or where they were heading. But they clung firmly to their founding mission: to deliver liberation for the people and independence to the nation. This unswerving conviction kept them from disintegrating through countless perils, sustaining them as they marched into the unknown with resolve.

David Ferguson:

I now realize that faith and ideals untested by harsh reality may have no true substance.

Since its founding, the Communist Party of China has always upheld the realization of communism as its fundamental goal. Despite devastating losses and extreme adversity, the Red Army continued to press forward resolutely and never faltered. Its inner strength came from an unshakable belief in the cause, an unwavering commitment to the founding aspiration, and a profound sense of mission. The Red Army was never fleeing pursuers in search of safety; it was marching forward to a future in which it had a steadfast belief.

Wang Xiaohui:

The Long March went on for two years. The Red Army trekked 25,000 li across some of China’s harshest terrain, but they kept their heads high, seeking hope amid despair and marching towards light through unending darkness. The lofty ideals and sense of mission they upheld have also become the torch that guides generations of CPC members in the following centennial, tempering them into steel as they press forward unswervingly toward national rejuvenation.

That spark lit along the Yudu River has never dimmed since.
