The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council responded to the island's hope that Kinmen would become a pilot site for cross-strait financial cooperation. Zhu Fenglian, a spokesperson for the Taiwan Affairs Office, said that in April 2009, ARATS and the Taiwan Province SEF signed the Agreement on Cross-Strait Financial Cooperation. Under this framework, cross-strait financial supervision and cooperation mechanism and currency clearing mechanism have been established, and relevant policies for cross-strait financial industry opening have been introduced one after another, providing important support for cross-strait industrial cooperation and integration. In 2023, the Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the State Council on Supporting Fujian to Explore a New Road for Cross-Strait Integration and Development and Building a Demonstration Zone for Cross-Strait Integration and Development was issued, which clearly put forward such tasks as supporting the construction of multi-level cross-strait financial markets, innovating cross-strait social capital cooperation methods, deepening Xiamen-Tianjin exchanges and cooperation, and creating Xiamen-Tianjin "city life circle". We are willing to explore new paths and new styles of cross-strait financial integration and development with our compatriots in Kinmen, and share the new opportunities brought by the deepening financial system reform in the mainland of China.

JPMorgan Chase: The momentum of Xiaomi's electric vehicle will continue to be rated as "overweight". According to a research report published by JPMorgan Chase, Xiaomi Group announced that it will launch the second electric vehicle named Xiaomi Yuqi in the middle of next year, which is an SUV model. The product portfolio of electric vehicle business continues to expand, reflecting that the Group's ability to enter the electric vehicle market is better than market expectations. The delivery target of Xiaomi SU7, the first electric vehicle, has also been raised twice, and the gross profit margin of electric vehicle business has reached a medium-high level in the first two quarters, far exceeding the initial market expectation and only recorded a slight gross profit margin. Motong said that at present, we are waiting for the Group to announce more details about the new car's life, pricing and battery. We believe that the strong sales momentum of SU7, the profitability of the Group's core business and electric vehicle business, and the expectation that new models will be launched in the second half of next year will continue to promote the stock price in the next 6 to 12 months. The positive catalysts in the future include more details or pricing of YU7, further expansion of electric vehicle production capacity, exceeding expectations in core business performance, and large-scale and national consumption stimulus measures introduced by the country in the future.The Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council introduced the situation of the 2024 Shanghai-Taipei Twin Cities Forum.
