Generally speaking, the national economy made a good start in the first quarter with positive factors amassing, laying a strong foundation for achieving the annual development targets. However, we should be aware that the external environment is becoming more complex, severe and uncertain, and the foundation for stable and sound economic growth is not yet solid. Next, we must follow the guidance of Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, fully implement the spirits of the Central Economic Work Conference and the "two sessions" (the annual gatherings of the National People's Congress and the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference), and adhere to the principles of pursuing progress while ensuring stability, promoting stability through progress and establishing the new before abolishing the old. We should fully and faithfully apply the new development philosophy on all fronts, accelerate the efforts to create a new development pattern, strive to promote high-quality development, actively cultivate and develop new quality productive forces, and strengthen the implementation of macro policies. We must effectively boost economic vitality, prevent and defuse risks, improve public expectations, consolidate and enhance the momentum for economic recovery and growth, and continue to effectively pursue higher-quality economic growth and appropriately increase economic output.

There are the main indicators and data regarding China's economic performance in the first quarter of this year. Now, I'm glad to answer your questions.
