10

Money lending business

In December 2019, the money lending business has been sold to an independent third party due to the uncertainties in Hong Kong which has been affected by the social movement since June 2019.

OTT services

OTT services is providing multi-media related services and contents in the Hong Kong via different platforms. In view of the growing penetration and expansion of multi-media segment, the Group is about optimistic such business segment. In addition, consumers are moving beyond traditional media, the multi-media platform is an option used by many companies to brand and market their products. As such, the multi-media platform is playing an increasingly vital role in business marketing strategy. Considered that our OTT services is equipped with experience in the industry with diversified clientele and being specialized in the provision of OTT services of video-on-demand in Hong Kong and Taiwan via its own digital video rental platform. The revenue in OTT services recorded approximately HK$23.7 million for the nine months ended 31 December 2020 (2019: HK$27.8 million), compared with the corresponding period in 2019. Such decrease is due to the policy of social gathering ban adopted by the Hong Kong government and enterprise’s work from home policy due to the spread of COVID-19 in 2020 and some protests from social movements have occurred, the business plan to promote the movie and entertainment platform with mobile network operator in mid-2020 has been delayed.

FUTURE PROSPECTS

Currently, 4G and 5G networks co exist in Hong Kong. It is expected that 5G network will substitute 4G networks in the coming years, and that people using 4G network shall opt for 5G plan after the end of their 4G plan contract due to the attractive price of 5G plan and much higher speed performance attributed to the customers. We are now under the transition period and we expect to benefit from the increase in the number of users under the bundle of offers of 5G plan.

The Directors are of the view that the broadcasting market in Hong Kong from a traditional free-licensed television broadcasting will be substituted by OTT broadcasting. The Company intends to exploit the OTT broadcasting channel, which customers be offered with a wide variety of films, pop songs and TV series, etc. over the Internet. In view of the rapid global development in media contents and the rising popularity of new media platforms among the mobile and internet users, we hope to continue developing the quality media contents with the advantages of the existing platform resources and to thrive in the cultural and entertainment business.
