The following is a summary of the report: We continue to recommend the unit after the perfect second-quarter results are far more than we expect on Wall Street. The company achieved a revenue of $120.6 million trillion in the second quarter, more than we expected in 106.7 million dollars, mainly because 110.2 million of dollars in online gaming revenue exceeded expectations (our forecast was $96.8 million). The 0.93 dollar earnings per share exceeded our forecast of $0.50 (Wall Street's average forecast of $0.59), due to rising incomes and lower operating costs than expected. The company's third-quarter revenue guidance forecast was 116.96 million to 124.2 million US dollars (756 million to 803 million yuan), higher than our 114.4 million dollar forecast, and higher than the 112.8 million dollar Wall Street average.

Overseas authorized income of 9.6 million U.S. dollars, slightly lower than our 9.9 million dollar expectations, reflecting the overseas market for the reduction in the number of new games to reduce the licensing costs. The other income is 9 million dollars. The performance of the core games is strong and business leverage drives net profit growth. The core game of the Perfect World, "the Immortal" and "The Perfect World 2" are still very popular with players, the October 2010 release of the "Magic of the mainland" and March 2011 released the "Ghost World" and other new games still strong performance.

Overseas markets remain a meaningful source of revenue, contributing about 25% of the revenue in the second quarter. The company continues to expand its pipeline by diversifying into the field of web games and social gaming.

We believe that the company will release "The Immortal" and "The Perfect World 2" in the next few quarters of the documentary.
