Thank you, Brandi. Before I begin, please note that for the purposes of these discussions, all percentages are based on renminbi. Throughout the third quarter, we made a number of advancements that broaden our Internet games and service offerings. In additions to introducing new games and upgrades to our classic games, we increased our investment in our mobile capabilities. We see a considerable opportunities to connect with our growing community through further diversifications and mobile initiatives that supports our growth. For the third quarter, we increased our revenues by 23% year-over-year, with revenues from our online games, increasing by 21% and revenues from our advertising services growing 22.9%. During the third quarter, we completed important upgrades for 2 of our longest operating games. In July, we launched Fantasy Westward Journey II, along with the accompanying pocket mobile versions. This game delivered a fantastic performance and contributed to the increase in our online games revenues for the third quarter. In September, we introduced new Westward Journey Online II, and we are very pleased with the receptions to the new versions of this classic game, which has inspired additional enthusiasm for the game and positive user trends. Looking at some of our new games, Heroes of Tang Dynasty II has performed well since the launch of this most recent expansion pack in June and contributed to the growth of our online game business for the period. User feedback has also been encouraging, following our initial commercial launch of Heroes of Three Kingdoms in April and Dragon Sword in August, supported by the large-scale promotional activities that were initiated for those 2 games in September and November, respectively. In the coming months, we expect to see heightened interest for other newer game titles as well, such as Ghost II and Kung Fu Master,…

[Operator Instructions] Our first question is from the line of Dick Wei with Crédit Suisse. Dick Wei - Crédit Suisse AG, Research Division: I have 2 questions. First question is about international expansion. I think NetEase may be participating at G-Star now, and then as well as having like a -- take an investment company in Korea. Maybe can the management comment a bit about the opportunities and the type of games it's going to bring to overseas. Secondly is about Yixin YiChat, when -- what is the financial impact that it be on the sales marketing line or on the balance sheet front from the Yixin investment? William, [Chinese]

[Chinese]

So regarding to William's press remarks on our international expansions, first of all, we'd like to highlight that NetEase has got a very superior team of R&D people who are able to produce some good qualities and high-quality products to the market. And by far, that's come to a more appropriate timing for us to consider and to move forward for certain of our game titles to the overseas market, and not just Korea alone, but we would also be open to consider the expansions to other areas as well. And the whole plan of doing the international expansion would start from the fourth quarter of this year. We will see more of these actions going forward. And so with regard onto your second questions, regarding the financial impact of the YiChat on the financials, I think the major changes will be that we have do an investment in the joint ventures of around RMB 200 million, and this has been reflected in our balance sheet as a part of our other long-term assets. And because we only got a 27 equities stake in the company, and so we would be taking the -- using the equity markets to account for it. And by far, the whole operations of YiChat is still in its early stage, and so we do not believe that it has a very significant impact to our income statement so far. Dick Wei - Crédit Suisse AG, Research Division: Great. And can I just have a quick follow-up on the international side. What kind of genre of games do you think we have more advantage going overseas? William, [Chinese].

[Chinese]

So basically because different country, we've got different kind of preferences on different products. And so far, I think we would not specifically pinpoint to which type of games that we will be doing in such kinds of overseas expansions in a particular country. But basically we will be taking into account on what we are currently offering, that would be a good opportunity to do the overseas expansions.

Our next question is from the line of Alicia Yap with Barclays.

I have a couple of questions. Number one is that, I was hoping that management can share with us some of the upcoming plans for this YiChat platform and how NetEase would benefit from this YiChat?

[Chinese]

Basically, we do see that the mobile handsets will be a -- for doing the instant messages or communications would be a very good entry point of moving to the mobile area, and we would also take the opportunities of going into this area by enhancing the user experiences and the recognitions of our services by our YiChat users. And for NetEase, we are always focusing on the China market, and this also reflected by the fact that we have been partnering with China Telecom in offering the YiChat services to the users in China in general. And with the rollout of the newer versions of the YiChat applications, we do look forward that we can give a more refreshing and more interesting user experiences to our users alike. And in a way to make good use of this YiChat or the Yixin platforms, NetEase got a very good positions on other areas, like the email, the games and things like that, and we would be able to put together what we are currently doing well in other areas, and put on this platforms and to further enhance the communications needs and experiences of the users.

I see. And my second question is on the mobile games pipeline. So I understand that you might not share some of the specific titles, but just wanted to know what type of, let's say, general is the interest for NetEase. Will that be more casual, more social, or will that be more towards the hardcore MMO mobile games? And then related to that, is that -- given that the competition is getting more and more intense in the mobile games so -- and the content differentiations is also getting more and more crowded and less differentiated. So just wondered how do you see the overall mobile game's landscape and the competition level going forward?

Just give us 1 second, Alicia.

[Chinese]

So basically, Alicia, in response to your questions about our mobile games pipelines or the general landscape, I think basically, for whatever type of games, we would also be offering to the market, whether it is the casual one, the social or even the MMO.

Our next question is from the line of Timothy Chan with Morgan Stanley.

I have 2 questions on your international expansion, as well as YiChat as well. So about your overseas licensing strategy, this is the first time you're exporting your titles to overseas. So would that, in any way, imply the growth in China maybe a bit slowing down? And separately on YiChat, could you maybe share with us your target and also, what is the differentiation of YiChat to attract users away from other similar products, this is because user may be -- usually only need only one mobile chatting application on their mobile phones?

So, William [Chinese].

[Chinese]

So basically, with regards to your first questions about the international expansions, because owing to the fact that we believe that our own products got this competitiveness to mobile to the overseas area, and so this would be a natural move. But it doesn't mean that the moving out -- or the licensing of the game titles to overseas means that our own market is not performing well.

[Chinese]

And we are still confident that given the fact that we have some high-qualities game products and some reputable game products in place, we were able to perform quite well by moving a step forward by expanding our footprints in the international area. [Chinese]

[Chinese]

Okay. So basically, there will be quite covers of differentiated competitive niche about our Yixin or YiChat products. First of all, if the users are using the applications within the China regions, basically, there will be certain amount of free usage for them to use it. And with regard to the qualities of the voice or the photo transmissions, our product is of much higher performance than the others. And with regard to the group chat, and we are able to accommodate with over 200 people, that they can do some instant communications, and we believe that this would also be quite welcome to the enterprise and other big organizations to try this special functionalities. And at the same time, we are also -- got a close connections with our emails and also, some other applications to improve the user experiences as such. And also, we always keep an open attitude for cooperating with others for doing some next-generation research and development to make the products much better. And all of these niche of the YiChat products will able to enhance and make a very good experiences for our users in terms of doing their social communications and things like that.

Our next question is from the line of Tian Hou with T.H. Capital.

William and Onward, I have a question related to your mobile game. So in your press release, you mentioned that you're going to issue -- release some several high-quality mobile games. Just by looking at the market, we saw Shanda-issued mobile game, Perfect World-issued mobile game. At the beginning, they were quite successful. However, when Tencent issued some mobile game, they reached to a new level. So it shows that the distribution for mobile game is one of the critical elements in the success of a mobile game. I wonder how you address that issue. William, [Chinese]

[Chinese]

So first of all, William reiterated that the distribution channel is very important, especially for the mobile games strategies. But another area that we also need to pay attention to is about the mobile game's life cycle. In the past 10 years, NetEase has been very successful in proving that the online games, the markets do got a good growth opportunities, and we also got some legendary game titles or classic game titles that has experienced a continued growth in the past 10 years, either achieving some new record high with the numbers, or the new hit records of the revenues, so to call. And on the other hand, it also proved that NetEase is a company that would be able to understand the consumers needs and what the market has been looking for. And we would also be thinking very carefully and seriously in positioning our strategies by moving into the mobile games areas as well. The simple answer to it is that all game genres or the game types will be produced by us. And we would also be make sure that by having some good-qualities game products to the market, to the -- this would get the recognitions from the users accordingly. And at the same time, the reasons why we also move into the area of rolling out another instant messenger application like the YiChat is that we believe that it would also -- lays a good ground for us to set up a platform for distributing our other game titles. And we also believe that the mobile area wouldn't be just accommodating one application at all. And as long as we've got some good applications, we do believe that it would attract the users to install it on their handsets. And so far, people who are having handsets would install quite a couple of applications and maybe [indiscernible]. And as long as you really pay attention to it and seriously do something, and then the products itself is of good qualities, we believe that we would get the recognitions from the market and be able to work it out well.

Onward, I have a question for you. And since you're going to introduce several titles of mobile game in Q4, should we expect the marketing and sales -- sales and marketing expense to go up in Q4?

Well, I think for now, if you're talking about our selling and marketing expenses, because we have still upkeep a general benchmark, because we do not give a specific guidance on how much we would be spending, so far, we would still be upkeep around 10% to 11% of the total revenues as the benchmark of how we are going to spend for this year.

Our next question comes from the line of Jialong Shi with CLSA.

I have a couple of questions. My first question is about your margin trend. Your margin actually have been very resilient in the past couple of quarters, while some of your peers are guiding the margin outlook due to investment into new business, particularly mobile-related business. So can you provide some colors on your margin outlook for next year, and just wonder if you will also see some margin pressure as you guys may probably also decide to kind of ramp up investments into new business? And this is my first question. [Chinese]

So basically, if we are looking forward to the upcoming margin trends because basically, for this year, will be a primary year where we will be doing quite a lot of investment, and we'll not expect that we will do too many other things in the upcoming periods, and we believe that in terms of the margins, then would be a trend that there would be an improvement in this area.

Sorry. So just to clarify, you expand your margin, there could be further upside potential for your margin or?

Well, I think if you are talking about the marketing, in general, because if you're referring to our gaming margins, because you would also see that in the past, that there has been an ongoing trend, in the sense that you would see that we have a more contributions from our self-developed games, and given the fact that we wouldn't still be holding the wheel that this would be the trend going forward. And so in this sense, at least, we will be able to upkeep the current levels of the margins in this sense, but there will be some room for certain improvement.

I see. My second question is on your mobile game. In the earnings release, you guys mentioned the new PC and iPad game called Hearthstone, which seems very promising. Just wonder if you can provide some updates on the feedback so far during the testing phase. [Chinese]

[Chinese]

So basically, first of all, maybe the response to your second question would be that for Hearthstone is still in the testing phase. And so we will not comment too much on how it would go at this point of time, but maybe we'll give you more color at a later point of time when we completed the testing phase. And William has also made another additional supplements on the first question about the margin trend, because we have already do the necessary investments in this area in the past 2 years. And we do -- we are quite confident that we will be able to get some returns or -- especially, starting from next years. And so we would like all of you to understand that this would be the area that we got the confidence, and we are in no way to compare with all the other companies.

Our next question comes from the line of Binnie Wong with Bank of America.

My questions comes on -- just want to -- we see a nice growth on the line -- on the revenue segment on the RVAS [ph]. I just want to understand the -- can you add more color on the growth drivers in this segment? And also, number two is on the use of cash. Given we have almost like a USD 3 billion cash on hand, so I just want to understand what are -- is there any plan in mind for that?

So first of all, if you are talking about the exceptional positive performance of the [indiscernible] and others in the third quarter, the major reason is that we have gotten an increase bring about by the sales of our gaming-related accessories, like the limited edition packs of our New Westward Journey Online II, and this has bring about the growth, especially in third quarter. But if you're looking at the segment in general, because it would be covering quite a lot of stuff like our email, the sale of game accessories and other things, like the e-commerce related kind of stuff like the free tickets and things like that. And so, we are still believing all those different kind of components are progressing well, and we do see that it would result in a nice trend going forward. But having said that, this whole segment is still representing a small portion of our overall business, and so we will still work on this area. And with regards to your second questions about the potential usage of cash, because just as what we previously mentioned, the company has got into 3 potential areas of doing so. First of all, earlier this year, the company has already announced that we would formalize an annual dividend policy, where starting from 2013, we'll be using 22% -- 25% of our net profits for potentially declaring and paying the dividends to the shareholders. And the other thing is that we are still having a share repurchase program in place that will be due to expire by later this month. And another area is that we are still open to some potential investment opportunities.

Our next question is from the line of Jiong Shao with Macquarie.

My first question is about your go-to-market strategy for your upcoming mobile games. Are you considering to do it on your own in terms of promoting and operation? Or are you looking to initially work with platform such as Qihoo and Choyau [ph]? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

[Chinese]

Okay. So basically, for what are the types of our online game initiatives that are going to go -- as to the market, there would be 2 ways that we'll be working on. First of all, we will be working out our own distribution channels or platforms so to call, and we would also make use of what the market is currently using.

Okay. My second question is about your user acquisition for YiChat. We'll appreciate what you just described about the differentiation between YiChat and WeChat basically. But the conventional wisdom is that this sort of chatting program has a pretty strong network of fact. It's great you now have 30 million users already. But going forward, what are some of the ways you are implementing to grab to get more users on your platform to create a much-needed network of that, i.e., like a handset free installation, is that part of it? Anything you can share will be helpful.

[Chinese]

[Chinese]

Okay. So basically, the simple answer to this is that this has been our directions to do it, and we will not stop it until we get it succeeded.

Okay. Can I just follow up, do you consider to do a handset installation to expand your user base?

[Chinese]

So basically, the general [indiscernible] is that there are many, many ways of doing so in order to acquire new users or things like that, whether you are mentioning about the handset free installations and things like that. But the more important thing is that if companies can actually -- are working hard seriously to do some creative stuff or innovations, then we will be able to do some new changes in the upcoming futures. And we do believe that given the passion and the seriousness in our mind of doing in this area, we will be able to work out something good in the upcoming periods.

[Chinese]

Yes. And we do not mean to block out the ways for other people. But what we are currently doing is that we are just finding the ways of working out something that would be more suitable for us.

Ladies and gentlemen, due to time constraints, our last question will be from the line of Alex Yao with JPMorgan. Alex Yao - JP Morgan Chase & Co, Research Division: I have a question on mobile gaming. William, do you think of mobile gaming -- is it more similar to the client-based games or is it more similar to web-based games in terms of monetization, life cycle and the marketing, and what approach will you guys adopt in this gaming genre? [Chinese]

[Chinese]

So basically, I think, it would be quite difficult to give you a very specific answer to what you have been asking. But basically, we are quite sure about how well we should be doing in order to produce a product that can feed the needs of our target users and to improve the user experiences.

Ladies and gentlemen, that concludes our question-and-answer session. At this time, I'd like to turn the conference back over to management for any closing remarks.

Thank you, everyone, for joining us today. If you have further questions, please feel free to contact Cassia Curran, NetEase's IR manager, based in Hangzhou or The Piacente Group, Investor Relations. Thank you again, and have a wonderful day.
