「If an exclusive player contract is not renewed, a leading player leaves after being recruited by another team, a team or player suffers a severe decline in performance, a player retires or suspends activities because of an injury or misconduct, or the brand or recognition of a team or player declines, we may be unable to generate activity revenue as expected, which could affect our group’s results. If a problem arises from a breach of contract with a business partner, a sponsor cuts its advertising budget, or a distribution platform scales back or withdraws its services, or if another factor impedes business expansion, sponsorship payments, tournament prize money, distribution fees and appearance fees may fall short of plan and affect our group’s results.」
