Part III Business Summary
I Principal Activity of the Company in the Reporting Period
The Company is required to comply with the disclosure requirements of the SZSE Industrial Information Disclosure Guide No.
12—Listed Companies Engaged in Software and IT Services.
During the Reporting Period, the Company focused on cultural and creative businesses based on the development, publishing,
and operation of mobile and browser games, as well as the development in segments such as 5G cloud gaming, film and television,
music, anime, VR/AR, cultural health, e-learning, esports, and social entertainment. The Company steadily advanced its
development strategy of “boutiqueization, diversification and globalization”. It ranks No. 1 among game companies listed on the
A-shares market in 2020 China’s Top 100 Internet Companies Ranking.
During the Reporting Period, the Company achieved robust performance growth and recorded operating revenue of RMB14.4
billion, with a year-over-year (YoY) increase of 8.86%; a profit before income tax expenses of RMB3,249 million, up by 20.50% YoY;
and a net profit attributable to the Listed Company’s shareholders of RMB2,761 million, rising by 30.56% YoY. The above growth
was mainly attributable to the sound development of the main business, which promoted continuous growth in the overall
operating results.
1. Changes in industry-related economic situation and their impacts on the Company
In 2020, under the support and guidance of a series of industrial policies, the game industry has resisted the impact of
COVID-19, and has developed steadily. According to the 2020 China's Game Industry Report, there are more than 660 million game
users in China in 2020; the actual sales revenue of China's game market is RMB278.687 billion, with a year-over-year increase of
20.71%, and the growth rate was 13.05% higher year-over-year. The scale of "Games Export" has been further expanded. The
actual sales revenue of independently-developed games in the oversea market was USD15.450 billion with a year-over-year
increase of 33.25%, and a year-over-year growth rate of 12.3%. The internationalization level was further improved.
The competition landscape of the gaming industry has changed. On the one hand, with the gradual disappearance of
demographic dividend and the increasing demand of players for content quality, the mobile games have gradually transitioned
from enjoying demographic dividend period to enjoying content dividend, which led to the result that players were posing higher
requirements for online games. Game companies need to improve the quality of games to expand user base and willingness to pay,
and ultimately achieve an increase in the return on product investment. On the other hand, the industry's attention was
increasingly concentrated on top-performing games and leading manufacturers, suggesting a prominent "head" effect in the
industry.
The threshold of game development and barriers to competition have been substantially raised under this situation. Top game
companies embracing strengths in the R&D and publishing of quality products and operation are more likely to benefit from the
new situation. In 2020, the Company has stepped into a high-quality development stage. In the new stage of development, the
Company takes the main business as its core and deepens the strategy of "integration of R&D and operation" and "dual engines at
home and abroad". During the Reporting Period, the Company kept its leading role in R&D capabilities by raising R&D investments,
expanding the R&D team and strengthening the output of quality games. Moreover, it advanced the "diversification" strategy from
the aspects of R&D and publishing, and reserved varied quality games on different themes through independent development,
Should there be any discrepancy between the English version and the Chinese version of this Report, the Chinese version shall prevail.
10
investment in R&D-oriented companies, and enhanced cooperation with developers capable of producing quality games. In
addition, the Company, through independently developed AI systems, consolidated refined operation, prolonged the life cycle of
quality games, and improved operation efficiency.
2. Changes in industrial policy environment and their impacts on the Company
(1) The Law of the People's Republic of China on the Protection of Minors, as revised for the second time at the 22nd Session
of the Standing Committee of the 13th National People’s Congress of the People’s Republic of China in October 2020, shall come
into force commencing from 1 June 2021. The Law of the People's Republic of China on the Protection of Minors strengthened
juvenile protection online, required to build a unified online game electronic authentication system for minors nationwide, and
specified the online game service time for minors. It required classification of online games with age suitability reminders. Besides,
it asked Internet service providers ("ISPs") to enhance user and information management and timely adopt appropriate measures
to control illegal information or criminal offenses against juveniles. Meanwhile, it specified penalties for ISPs who fail to fulfill
obligations, such as anti-addiction and anti-cyberbully obligations. In December 2020, China Audio-video and Digital Publishing
Association issued the Online Game Age Suitability Reminders, a standard to make clear specifications on available game contents
for juveniles of different age groups. It will be a requisite for the approval and release of games this year.
During the Reporting Period, 37 Interactive Entertainment fully upgraded the "real-name registration and anti-addiction
system for minors" and launched it on all its independent operation online games (including browser and mobile games) in early
2020. According to the requirements of the government authorities, 37 Interactive Entertainment now gradually employs the
national real-name authentication system on all its games in batches so as to strictly implement the anti-addiction regulations for
minors. At the same time, adhering to the standard of the Online Game Age Suitability Reminders for different age groups, 37
Interactive Entertainment has improved the marks and texts of the reminders on the basis of previous reminders. The new
standard has been piloted in representative independently developed and exclusive agency products such as Yong Heng Ji Yuan (永
恒纪元), Rong Yao Da Tian Shi (荣耀大天使) and Yun Shang Cheng Zhi Ge (云上城之歌) of the Company., and the full application
to all games will be made subsequently. Additionally, the Company added contents applicable to children to its Privacy Policy in line
with the user habits of juveniles under 14 years old and their guardians. It contributed to turning China's gaming industry more
standardized by actively participating in the compilation of group standards for the gaming industry led by the China Audio-video
and Digital Publishing Association ("CADPA"), such as the Specifications on Age Ratings of Online Games, the Specifications on
Parent Monitoring Platforms, and Online Game Terminology.
(2) On 2 August 2020, the Online Game Copyright Committee of Copyright Society of China was established in Beijing. The
decision on amending the Copyright Law of the People’s Republic of China has been adopted at the 23rd Session of the Standing
Committee of the 13th National People’s Congress on November 11 in 2020, and the revised Copyright Law of the People’s
Republic of China shall come into force on 1 June 2021. The Copyright Law of the People’s Republic of China provides guidelines for
authorization, use and protection of copyright in the game industry, making the copyright management increasingly normative.
During the Reporting Period, 37 Interactive Entertainment increased the efforts in the research and development of
high-quality games, and protected intellectual property with great efforts at the same time. The Company used multiple methods
to protect its own legitimate rights and interests, and improved copyright awareness and copyright management to ensure its
compliance operation.
3. Main businesses and business models of the Company
During the Reporting Period, the Company's main businesses included the development, publishing, and operation of mobile
Should there be any discrepancy between the English version and the Chinese version of this Report, the Chinese version shall prevail.
11
games and browser games. The operating modes of the Company’s mobile games and browser games mainly include independent
operation and third-party joint operation.
Under the independent operation mode, the Company obtains the licenses of games through independent R&D or being an
operator of other games, and publishes and operates these products through its own or third-party channels. The Company is fully
responsible for the operation, promotion and maintenance of the games; providing unified management services for online
promotion, online customer service and top-up payment; and updating games along with game developers based on the real-time
feedback of users and games.
Under the third-party joint operation mode, the Company cooperates with one or more game operators or game application
platforms to jointly operate games. And the aforesaid parties are responsible for the management of their own channels, including
operation, promotion, the recharge and charge system, while the Company provides technical support services for third parties
along with game developers.

III Core Competitiveness Analysis
During the Reporting Period, the Company steadily promoted the development strategy of "boutiqueization, diversification
and globalization" and formed the following core competitiveness:
1. Industry-leading R&D strength
The Company has always emphasized R&D investments and talent cultivation. After years of efforts in R&D, the Company is
ranked among the top in terms of R&D strengths. Meanwhile, the Company's independently developed products are characterized
by high output, a high success rate and a long period, and center on "boutiqueization and diversification". During the Reporting
Period, a number of independently developed quality games, such as Jing Ling Sheng Dian (精灵盛典), and Dou Luo Da Lu H5 (斗罗
大陆H5), have achieved steady gross billing in the markets after being published for more than one year.
During the Reporting Period, the Company's R&D investments increased significantly year-over-year. The Company’s R&D
investments amounted to RMB1.113 billion during the Reporting Period, up by 36.66% YoY. It expanded from product upgrading to
talent cultivation, opened up development channels for professionals, and embraced employee diversity. Moreover, the Company
encouraged innovation by employees, increased the proportion of senior R&D staff, and welcomed employees with diversified
backgrounds.
First, the "boutiqueization" strategy greatly improved the R&D success rate. The "boutiqueization" strategy runs through the
entire life cycle of the Company's independently developed products. Before the launch of games, the Company carefully worked
out details regarding product planning, art quality, music effects, etc.; after the launch of games, the Company continued to invest
Should there be any discrepancy between the English version and the Chinese version of this Report, the Chinese version shall prevail.
13
in product iteration, process optimization, user experience and other aspects to ensure high gross billing and a long period of
games. In the meantime, its independently developed AI systems assisted in producing "quality games". The Company offered
precise reference value for the design of new products and iteration and optimization of existing products, improved product
development and procedure optimization, and substantially enhanced product experience, by analyzing and studying the
enormous data accumulated with the two independently developed AI ad systems, i.e., "Quantum" and "Destiny", as well as the
three platform-based big data products—"Athena", "Ares", and "Poseidon".
Second, the Company made breakthroughs in the "diversification" strategy. During the Reporting Period, the Company's R&D
team, based on its R&D strengths in ARPGs, expanded its game categories to MMORPG, SLG, SRPG, and simulation. It will continue
to innovate in diversified aspects, including product types, themes, art performance, and gameplay.
During the Reporting Period, the Company vigorously reformed the mechanism for R&D project approval, encouraged the
"bottom-up" project approval approach based on the "top-down" approach, shortened the evaluation cycle and established
diversified indicators, so as to stimulate employees’ innovative vitality. At the same time, the Company adjusted the incentive
mechanism for the R&D department, established a tiered incentive system for different categories of products, promoted the
incentive for new categories of products, and encouraged employees to be creative and step out of their comfort zone. The
Company has also established a project lifecycle management process for game development, which run through many links, such
as idea creation, project approval, process and review, to achieve the risk control of the entire R&D process, greatly improve the
success rate of product R&D while effectively controlling the cost, and lay the foundation for creating diverse, high-quality games.
2. Excellent publishing strength
During the Reporting Period, the Company maintained its leading position in mobile game and browser game publishing
business. 37 Interactive Entertainment enriched the product supply via independent R&D, investments, and cooperation with
excellent developers, improved the ability in publishing diverse, high-quality games and promoted the publishing strength to a new
height. During the Reporting Period, the Company expanded its product matrix and offered diversified gaming experience to
players by publishing quality games in different types and on varied themes, including Yun Shang Cheng Zhi Ge (云上城之歌), Hun
Dun Qi Yuan (混沌起源) to the domestic mobile game market.
The Company constantly sought innovative publishing approaches, and thus created a barrier to entry for competitors in game
publishing. First, the Company developed its own AI system to improve the ability of accurate ad placement. With this system, the
Company has optimized placement methods, improved the quality of materials, took advantage of high-quality materials, and
thereby effectively controlled the user acquisition cost. Second, the efficiency of publishing, including tool construction and data
algorithm to help form a real-time monitoring system and reduce cost waste. The Company puts forward the publishing idea of
“branding + sales effects”, grasps the market changes to carry out high-quality publicity, and uses good publishing ability to attract
target users to achieve good results.
In terms of operation optimization, the Company possesses strong capabilities for operation and optimization in numerical
management, process optimization, event planning, etc. After the launch of games, the Company continues to improve the quality
of games, attract users through better contents, prolong the product life cycle, and accumulate higher gross billing.

influence.

Part IV Operating Performance Discussion and Analysis
I Overview
The competition landscape of the domestic gaming industry underwent changes during the Reporting Period. The "head"
effect was prominent. The industry ushered in a new period of development. The Company precisely grasped the industry
development trends, made continuous improvements in operation, and remained a top performer in the industry, while adhering
to the "boutiqueization, diversification and globalization" strategy.
In 2020, the Company recorded operating revenue of RMB14.4 billion, with a year-over-year (YoY) increase of 8.86%; a profit
before income tax expenses of RMB3,249 million, up by 20.50% YoY; and a net profit attributable to the Listed Company’s
shareholders of RMB2,761 million, rising by 30.56% YoY. The stable growth in the mobile game business was the main driver for the
increase in revenue and profit during the Reporting Period. The overseas business in 2020 soared to a new high and the operating
revenue from the overseas game business increased by 104.34% compared to the same period last year.
(I) Mobile game business
During the Reporting Period, the Company recorded operating revenue of RMB13,296 million from mobile games, a YoY
increase of 10.9%. The Company’s business revenue from, and R&D investments in, mobile games continue to increase, and the
mobile game business maintains the leading position in domestic and overseas markets.
1. Research and development of mobile games
During the Reporting Period, the Company continuously exerted more efforts for R&D, and R&D investments grew YoY. The
Company’s R&D investments amounted to RMB1,113 million during the Reporting Period, up by 36.66% YoY, higher than that of
the operating revenue. The total R&D investments have reached RMB2.467 billion over the last three years. The size of the
research team has grown bigger. By the end of the Reporting Period, there were 2343 game and system R&D developers, 761 more
than last year, up by 48.1%, among which the number of senior developers also rose.
The R&D investments were mainly concentrated on improvement of product quality and exploration of product categories.
The "boutiqueization" strategy runs through the entire life cycle of the Company's independently developed products. The
Company is committed to making better the product engines, art design and sound quality of gaming products to meet the user
demand in experiencing high-quality games at the technical level; it is dedicated to gameplay innovation and process optimization
to meet user demand in fun and smooth experience at the planning level. High-quality development and high-frequency iterations
turned new products more attractive to users, and allowed most independently developed products to maintain high gross billing
for a long time.
The Company improved the "diversification" of product R&D. R&D projects included game genres such as MMORPG, SLG,
SRPG and simulation. Extensive numbers and categories of products were prepared for the year 2021. The Company will continue
innovation in diversified aspects, including product types, themes, art performance, and gameplay. It will pay close attention to the
in-depth exploration of MMORPG, SLG, SRPG, simulation and endeavor to become a first-class game company that can provide
global players with various gaming products, based on quality content, operation experience in multiple types of products, and
advantages in numerical value and gameplay.
Should there be any discrepancy between the English version and the Chinese version of this Report, the Chinese version shall prevail.
16
Meanwhile, the Company turned the product supply side more diversified, by buying a stake in and joining hands with
excellent developers. In order to further raise the product success rate, the Company established a rigorous evaluation process,
utilized its own advantages in user data and numerical experiences to work out products along with game developers, thus
ensuring a better quality of games before their publishing.
During the Reporting Period, the R&D department developed the Zeus Middle Platform, a middle platform with AI big data
computing power. Supported by one-stop service module, the Zeus Middle Platform can do deep learning calculations flexibly and
freely and realize automated operation and maintenance. It can realize the automation and standardization across the whole
process of R&D, deployment and operation, and clear a path for interconnectivity between systems of different departments, thus
greatly automating systems and the original business process. The emergence of the Middle Platform marks the transfer of
equipment resources from reserved mode to on-demand dynamic expansion mode. It sharply cuts costs and increases margins,
utilizes idle equipment and provides a flexible computing power environment for data analysts.
Construction of 5G cloud gaming system. The Company is currently committed to building a better cloud gaming system,
including: building internal cloud, providing computing and network supports for cloud gaming; building cloud gaming operation
services, proactively developing efficient game video transcoding and decoding technologies; developing a universal framework
with user interaction, video decoding, and cloud server communication, so as to support the universal light apps for cloud gaming.
During the Reporting Period, 37 Interactive Entertainment signed a cooperative agreement with Huawei. The two sides will set up a
“Joint Team of Cloud Gaming Technology Solutions” to improve current cloud gaming solutions and explore the development
direction and technological innovation hand in hand. In the upcoming 5G era, the Company’s smooth transition among cloud
gaming technologies is expected to bring new experiences to game players.
2. Publishing of mobile games
(1) Domestic market
The Company's advantages in refined operations in the domestic mobile games publishing were highlighted during the
Reporting Period. The highest monthly gross billing of its domestic mobile games exceeded RMB1.8 billion, with the total number
of newly registered users surpassing 384 million and the highest number of MAUs of over 84.87 million.
During the Reporting Period, the Company offered diversified gaming experience to players by publishing quality games in
different types and on varied themes, including Yun Shang Cheng Zhi Ge (云上城之歌), Fu Sheng Yao Hui Juan (浮生妖绘卷),
Wan Gu Feng Ling Jue (万古封灵决) and so on.
Among them, the adventure in another world theme MMORPG Yun Shang Cheng Zhi Ge (云上城之歌) published by the
Company became the representative of the Company's "diversification" strategy in operation and publishing. Yun Shang Cheng Zhi
Ge (云上城之歌) was published in April 2020 with good results in a number of operational and distributional aspects. The
successful release of this product brought positive significance to the Company in two ways. On the one hand, it broke through the
Company's previous ARPG-based product distribution ideas, the Company's distribution and operation capabilities in different
categories such as MMORPG have been greatly strengthened; on the other hand, different from the Company’s products in the
past, Yun Shang Cheng Zhi Ge (云上城之歌) is a pan-two-dimensional product with younger public. This distribution is also a
successful exploration of the Company in younger communities, laying a solid foundation for the following company’s distribution
and operation of diversified products.
The Company applied the "diversification" strategy to multiple aspects, including products, promotion, and services, based on
its capabilities of operating multiple types of games. Thanks to the strategy, the Company reserved adequate products in terms of
type, theme, and quantity. Its product matrix covered different types of games, such as MMORPGs, card games, SLGs, and SIM
games, as well as varied themes, such as fantasy, mythology/martial arts, city life, campus and women-orientation.
Should there be any discrepancy between the English version and the Chinese version of this Report, the Chinese version shall prevail.
17
During the Reporting Period, the Company insisted on operating with systematic flow management and adopted a diversified
approach of “multi-channel marketing + targeted advertising + long-term service” to accurately grasp user needs, accurately deliver
creative marketing plans to target groups and provide players with meticulous and comprehensive long-term service, with a
purpose of improving player satisfaction, activity and retention rate to prolong the product life cycle and accumulate higher gross
billing.
In terms of multi-channel marketing, the Company had formed a unique marketing approach featuring "branding + sales
effects". On the one hand, by selecting spokespersons that are consistent with the product’s connotation, the Company produced
high-quality micro-film-style promotional materials for promotion. With more advanced technology, more advanced visual
performance, more realistic force, more diverse production methods, and richer story content, it can quickly "break the circle" and
reach a wider user group; on the other hand, combinations were made with the short video platform to provide rich material
output and to meet the different cultural consumption needs of users in different angles, to further expand the scope of users, and
then to enlarge brand value and influence.
During the Reporting Period, the Company put its independently developed intelligent ad platform, "Quantum" and intelligent
operation analysis platform, "Destiny", into production. On the one hand, "Quantum" can connect with all mainstream channels to
achieve rapid and automatic advertising. Meanwhile, the platform can be used together with multiple systems and connect
procedures in series to greatly reduce the time to create plans, perform standardized processing of plans in batches, and maintain
plans automatically and systematically. Moreover, the platform can improve promotion efficiency and effect through big data
analysis and AI algorithms. On the other hand, "Destiny" is a comprehensive operational decision system for statistics, analysis and
prediction of game data. The system can accurately predict the life cycle of games through data analysis models. It supports
operation teams to adopt differentiated event marketing based on user data, so that customer service can focus on higher value
user services to generate more revenue.
(2) Overseas market
During the Reporting Period, the Company significantly accelerated the strategic expansion of global footprint. Its overseas
operating revenue rose by 104.34% year-over-year. As of the end of the Reporting Period, its overseas brand, 37GAMES, covered
many countries and regions, whose products included SLGs, MMORPG, simulation and card games.
Benefited from the adjustment of overseas operations, the Company's overseas business grew rapidly during the Reporting
Period. After years of accumulation of experience in publishing games overseas, the Company adjusted its overseas strategy from
the original "partition breakthrough" to publishing based on the organization structure of the tracks and categories. Under the
guidance of the new strategy, publishing personnel have a deeper understanding of the products and can be more effective. More
means of localized operations can be used by them.
In terms of "globalization", on the one hand, the Company continued to develop its global layout through the deployment of
SLG games in various themes such as western and military. After years of accumulation, during the Reporting Period, the Company
has effectively entered the European and American markets with SLG products, and its impact has been improved globally. SLG
games are products with long life cycles in the game field. After the initial growth, there will be a long-term payback period in the
following period, thus ensuring the stable growth of the gross billing of the Company's overseas business in the future. On the
other hand, in Southeast Asia, Japan and South Korea, the Company still stayed ahead.
Specifically, the Company had achieved excellent results in a number of games published in the global market. The market's
first "Match 3 + SLG" product "Puzzles & Survival" had filled the gaps in the European and American markets, with outstanding
performance and faster growth than similar mobile games. After the product was published in August 2020, it has topped some
regional strategy games top grossing charts, entered the top 50 top grossing charts in many regions in Europe and the United States,
and No. 1 in iOS and Google Play charts in Japan. The theme of "Puzzles & Survival" is attractive and its gameplay is innovative. It

perfectly integrated the most popular match-3 gameplay in the European and American markets with the traditional heavy SLG
gameplay, which is well received by overseas players. This product is a classic case of SLG game that successfully “go out of the
circle”. The product not only attracted core SLG players, but also charmed match-3 players with a large base in Europe and America,
and player retention had also risen sharply. Since the publishing of this product, the gross billing contribution had been outstanding.
As of the date of issuance of the report, the monthly gross billing of this product had exceeded RMB100 million, and it is still
breaking through the peak. After a good reputation among players was earned in Europe and the United States, it is expected that
this product will be strongly promoted in Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, South Korea and other markets in 2021.
In addition, Miracle MU: Across the Times (奇迹MU:跨时代) was published in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan in February 2020,
which quickly topped the iOS top grossing chart and Google Play free download chart in Taiwan. Jing Ling Sheng Dian (精灵盛典)
was published in Vietnam in December 2020, currently ranking first on the iOS and Google Play top grossing charts. Call Me the Big
Shopkeeper (叫我大掌柜) was published in Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan regions in October 2020, staying on the free download
charts for several weeks.Then, respectively, it was released in Japan and Korea In January and February 2021, which has achieved
good response in Korea as of the announcement date. Swords of Archangels H5 (大天使之剑H5) has been on top of the top
grossing chart in the Vietnamese market for a long time, becoming a phenomenon game in the local market.
(II) Browser games
During the Reporting Period, the Company’s browser game business achieved operating revenue of RMB1.08 billion, which
was lower than that of last year. It was mainly affected by both the shift of users to mobile phones and the decrease in the number
of browser game products. During the Reporting Period, the Company strengthened partnership with domestic top browser game
developers through strategic investment and business cooperation on the one hand, on the other hand, the Company also refined
the operation of its major quality games, improved user stickiness, stabilized the product life cycle, and further maintained its
operating revenue.
(III) Cultural industry
The Company invested into other fast-growing cultural and creative segments, while maintaining the high-speed growth of its
core business. The Company exploited opportunities in 5G cloud gaming, film and television, anime, music, VR/AR, cultural health,
e-learning, e-sports, and social entertainment with a strategic focus on quality content. As of the date of this report, cultural and

The Company adhered to the long-term investment concept. Based on the main business of games, it reached audiences in
varied segments by investing in the upstream and downstream companies of the industry chain. With respect to investment
strategies, the Company paid close attention to new products and technologies in the industry and overseas and international
distribution of products. In regard to the selection of investment targets, the Company valued the ability to constantly output

multi-directional synergy in 2020. 37 Interactive Entertainment's mobile game, "The King of Fighters All Star (KOF ALLSTAR) (拳魂觉
醒)", performed noticeably well and achieved outstanding results at home and abroad, thanks to the integration of the SNK IP
under DIGital Color where the Company holds equity. Puzzles & Survival, a mobile game product invested by Shanghai Eyu Game in
2020, entered the top 30 of APP Annie's global revenue rank of Chinese manufacturers' overseas apps in January 2021. In addition,
companies in vertical fields where the Company invests have been more closely connected. For instance, Zhonghui Television and
YHKT Entertainment cooperated to purchase the copyright of Incarnation, a sci-fi blockbuster on bilibili.com, and would make a
series. "Original Plan", the talent agent, and "Haohao Bangyang" are working with FenghuaQiushi, Zhonghui Television, and 37
Interactive Entertainment to maximize the outstanding talent resources. Besides, "DSMovie", a superb domestic Multi-Channel
Network (MCN), is used as a promotional channel to exert an amplified and superimposed effect on the entertainment eco-system
of 37 Interactive Entertainment.
In terms of e-learning, the audiobook platform “KaDa Story” has become a top platform in China, doubling its operating
revenue last year. Likewise, "Wake Yoga", an online yoga platform, has turned profitable despite the pandemic. Overall, the
Company has achieved sound progress in the e-learning sector by devoting enormous resources in quality content and traffic.
In terms of film and television, the Company has invested a number of excellent film and television production enterprises,
having a successful participation in the production of excellent works such as Peace Breaker, Suspect X, Forever Young, Till The End
Of The World, Better Days, Crane New Arrival and Serenade of Peaceful Joy. The Company will gradually release more excellent film
and television works in the future. In terms of animation, the Company has invested in several outstanding domestic animation
producers. The Three-Body Problem, an animation adapted from Liu Cixin's science fiction novel, is expected to be released in 2021
by YHKT ENTERTAINMENT.
As of the date of this report, the Company's many subject companies have shown the great potential for development, and
the Company's investment strategies in the whole cultural and creative industry chain have begun to show its outcomes. In March
2020, the Company exited from ZLONGAME and obtained considerable return. In 2020, the Company partially exited from X.D.
Network after its IOP, gaining substantial return. This deal won the Company the Best Exit of the Year. Fuhai 37, a fund to which the
Company is a partner, has completed the exit of its investment in Weimob and received good returns after its IPO.
The Company is further building a full industry chain in cultural and entertainment ecological layout. To promote the mutual
empowerment between industrial and cultural value, the Company has already integrated emerging fields into the 5G era,
including interactive games, virtual streamers, VR/AR industry chain and e-sports through M&A and equity investment. At the same
time, the Company will empower and coordinate strategically with the invested companies, offer more high-quality content with
new experience, create a one-stop cultural and entertainment ecosystem, and become the most trusted cultural brand of China’s
younger generation.

Explanation of why any of the data above varies significantly on a year-over-year basis:
√ Applicable □ Not applicable
1. Sub-total of cash inflows from investing activities increased 52.54% YoY, primarily driven by an increase in cash inflows upon
the maturity of wealth management products in which the Company made a greater investment in the Reporting Period.
2. Sub-total of cash outflows used in investing activities increased 35.09% YoY, primarily driven by the payment for the
acquisition of land use rights and a greater investment in wealth management products in the Reporting Period.
3. Sub-total of cash inflows from financing activities increased 100.00% YoY, primarily driven by new discounted notes in the
Reporting Period.
4. Sub-total of cash outflows used in financing activities increased 119.55% YoY, primarily driven by a greater cash dividend
payout and the payment for the acquisition of non-controlling interests in Guangzhou 37 in the Reporting Period.
5. Net increase in cash and cash equivalents decreased 158.30% YoY, primarily driven by the combined effects of a YoY decrease
in net cash flows from operating activities, a decrease in net cash flows used in investing activities and an increase in net cash flows

IX Prospects
(I) Development Strategy and 2021 Business Plan of the Company
After many years of development, the online game industry in China has become mature with increasingly fierce market
competition and growing demand of users for product boutiqueization and diversification. In this context, the Company will stick to
the strategy of “boutiqueization, diversification and globalization”, ensuring the steady growth of its existing businesses.
The Company always treats quality games as the commanding height, continuously reinforces the “integration of R&D and
operation” model and the "dual engines at home and abroad" strategy, constantly consolidates the leading position of the
Company in the game industry and devotes itself to being one of the top-ranking R&D and operation enterprises providing the
global users with various integrated game products. In the meantime, the Company plans to implement a series of industrial
layouts by centering on “Generation Z”.
In 2020, the Company upgraded its corporate culture system, clarified the corporate mission of “bringing joy to the world”,
developed a vision that is “becoming an excellent and sustainable entertainment enterprise” and established the corporate values
of “innovation, aggressiveness, sharing and respect”. In the brand-new corporate culture system, all the employees of the Company
dare to innovate, are aggressive, take pleasure in share and respect each other.
1. Research and Development
The online game industry is iterated and upgraded relatively fast, so it is especially important for content innovation ability.
“Innovation” comes first in the corporate values. In 2021, the Company will implement the measures of “boutiqueization and
diversification” in various aspects and develop many influential quality games.
On the basis of the relatively high research and development investments in 2020, the Company will invest more in the
research and development work, scale up the research and development team, increase the proportion of the senior research and
development talents and realize the dual breakthroughs of the independently researched and developed products in quality and
quantity. In the future three years, the Company will greatly increase the number of the members in the research and development
team, activate the motive force of development, reinforce the “moat” of the Company and continuously tamp the core
competitiveness and status of the Company as the industry leader. In terms of hardware, the Company will continuously upgrade
its hardware facilities, ensuring that the artistic effect and rendering level of the products in the Company rank top in the industry;
the Company will further increase the research and development efficiency by various industrialized and intelligent measures,
making the research and development team focus on product innovation better and increasing the innovation of the products.
In addition, to develop the business categories, the Company will continue to implement the “diversification” strategy raised
by the research and development team, maintain the original ARPG research and development power and scale up the non-ARPG
research and development team, further increasing the proportion of the non-ARPG products independently researched and
developed. As an important part of the “globalization” strategy of the Company, the research and development team will also
research and develop quality games for the overseas market, contributing to globalization.
Should there be any discrepancy between the English version and the Chinese version of this Report, the Chinese version shall prevail.
44
In addition to more investments in its independent research and development, the Company also spares no effort to make an
equity investment in various quality game research and development companies, enriching the game product library.
2. Product reserves
With abundant product reserves and product supply, on the basis of boutiqueization, diversification and globalization of R&D,
the Company will comprehensively promote the dual-core and diversified product strategy, successively release over 50 agency and
independently-developed products in 2021, the categories of which include MMRPG, SLG, SRPG, simulation games, card games, etc.
Besides publishing Rong Yao Da Tian Shi (荣耀大天使) Jue Shi Xian Wang (绝世仙王) and Dou Luo Da Lu: Wu Hun Jue Xing (斗罗大
陆：武魂觉醒), the Company plans to release products, such as Duo Luo Da Lu: Hun Shi Dui Jue (斗罗大陆：魂师对决) and Yun
Duan Wen Xian (云端问仙) representing the boutiqueization, diversification and rejuvenation of the Company. Domestic products
include:

3. Operation
The Company constantly made innovations in publishing and operation means, raised the operation idea of “branding +sales
effects”, conducted high-quality promotion according to market changes, emphasized innovative output of content, and improved
the quality of video materials to attract target customers. The Company should carry out differentiated and customized
cooperation in traffic and channel in product publishing, build channels and conduct community construction and maintain the
long-term operation input in product channels. The Company continued to expand the usable range of intelligent ad platform and
operation analysis platform to improve the distribution capacity, achieve more efficient promotion through traffic and dig
high-quality customers, thus achieving the maximum ad benefit. The operation team can concentrate more on innovative work to
conduct more precise and differentiated event marketing.
4. Overseas market
As one of the earliest Chinese game companies to implement “games going global”, the Company enjoyed an expanding
market size and an increasing market share overseas. As the Company received remarkable responses from Europe, North America,
Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia, and Hong Kong, Macao, and Taiwan regions of China, 37GAMES saw growing brand influence.
After the new overseas strategies were implemented, the Company made initial achievements in 2020. Going forward, the
Company will continue to pursue the new strategies by publishing diversified, tailored games in big markets around the world,
deepen overseas expansion and consolidate existing advantages in overseas markets. In 2021, with large reserves of quality games
in various genres, the Company will maintain its advantages in the Asian market, and gain more achievements in European and
North American ones. Europe and North America are fertile lands for SLG games, the Company’s advantageous product, to grow.

RPG: Code TJKD and Code SS
5. 5G cloud gaming business
With the development of edge computing, fixed broadband network speed and 5G network, cloud gaming, as the best
scenario for 5G application, has become an important market for global game manufacturers and cloud service manufacturers. The
Company has been developing 5G cloud gaming since 2020, and signed a cooperative agreement with Huawei, in which both
parties will set up the “Joint Team of Cloud Gaming Technology Solutions” to deeply optimize the existing cloud gaming solutions
and jointly explore its development direction and technical innovation.
6. Investment business
The Company has increased its investment in boutique developers, actively promoting the cultural and entertainment
industries including 5G cloud games, film and television, music, artist agents, animation, VR/AR and some emerging fields such as
culture and health, social networking, etc. The Company aims to promote the vigorous development of China's cultural and
entertainment industries and make new contributions to cultural confidence.
7. IP strategy
It’s a long-term development goal of the Company to create quality content and establish a quality content brand. Based on
this, the Company continues to explore, by the methods of internal incubation and external access, high-quality IPs for the
development of quality cultural products including games, relying on its own advantages.
A cultural and creative strategy system was built based on the IP strategy. As of the date of this report, the IPs of the
Company's reserves covered different segments, including games, anime, literature, film, and television. Meanwhile, the Company
will gradually develop its own IPs to create higher value. Relying on its excellent IP strategy, the Company will continue to build its
cultural and creative strategy system, satisfy the diversified demands of users for entertainment, and exploit the opportunities of IP
value in film and television, music, anime, VR, cultural health industry, Internet child education and social entertainment.
(II) Possible Risks
1. Risk of industry regulation
Should there be any discrepancy between the English version and the Chinese version of this Report, the Chinese version shall prevail.
46
The online game industry is strictly regulated by relevant national policies and government departments. During recent years,
regulatory authorities have gradually attached importance to the healthy development of the online game industry, implementing
more stringent regulatory measures such as qualification management and content review for games’ development, publication
and operation. For example, the Standing Committee of the 13th National People's Congress revised the Law of the People's
Republic of China on the Protection of Minors for the second time at its 22nd session in October 2020, which came into effect on
June 1, 2021. The Law of the People's Republic of China on the Protection of Minors strengthens network protection, stipulating
that online games can be operated only after the approval of law. What’s more, China establishes a unified electronic identity
authentication system of online games for minors, specifies their online time, and stipulates penalties for network service providers
who do not fulfill their obligations to prevent online addiction and stop cyberbullying. During the operation of the game products, if
the Company violates the relevant regulations or misunderstand the regulatory regulations, there may be a risk that it will be
punished by authorities or that relevant works may not be published as planned because they do not meet the regulatory
requirements.
In the long term, the regulation of the online game industry is becoming more and more standardized, which is conducive to
the healthy development of the industry. The enterprises with standardized operation will benefit from it. 37 Interactive
Entertainment will strictly abide by the requirements related to the development of the industry and support its policies and
regulations.
2. Market competition risks and countermeasures
The online game industry is facing increasingly fierce competition as it gradually matures. The development of various
Internet-based cultural creative segments other than online games is further exacerbating external competition. At the same time,
online game users are also maturing, and online game users have increasingly higher demand for quality for game products Intense
market competition will challenge the Company’s development in terms of products and market channels.
In response, the Company will continue to increase R&D investments, R&D and innovation in product creativity, gameplay,
theme, art and technology. It will maintain close cooperation with excellent developers to guarantee the supply of quality products,
and continue to connect users with quality games. In terms of market channels, the Company will further bring into play the role of
new ideas in traffic operation, deepen the business strategy of multi-channel marketing, targeted advertising and long-term
services, and continuously enhance its core market competitiveness.
3. Business risks and countermeasures
The online game industry is characterized by fast product update, limited life cycle and fast change of user preference. Game
enterprises need to increase their investment in technology development and closely keep in pace with trend of the industrial
technologies. If the technology, products and other aspects of the game undergo major changes, and game enterprises fail to keep
up with them, their products will fail to meet the market demands. At the same time, information security and user privacy
protection arouse great public concerns. If the Company leaks users’ information due to negligence, there will be a significant
damage to the user experience and brand image. Consequently, its operation performance will be impaired.
In response, increasing R&D investments are needed to maintain continuous product innovation. The Company also needs to
dig deeper into operational data through independently developed AI systems, continuously update the understanding of changes
in target users' preferences, and timely adjust operational and R&D strategies, to meet the core demands of users.
A strict internal control system for information security management and user privacy protection has been set up to ensure
Should there be any discrepancy between the English version and the Chinese version of this Report, the Chinese version shall prevail.
47
the security of users’ information to the maximum extent. In terms of information security, the Company defines and classifies
security incidents to respond to possible data security problems. Information security audits take place once every six months for
systematic control of information security risks. In terms of privacy protection, the Privacy Policy has been established, which
provides in details the rules and standards for collection and use of users’ personal information and sets forth the reasonable and
feasible security measures adopted for protection of users’ personal information. In this way the Company will make sure with
greatest efforts that all users’ personal information is protected at the highest level. The Company ensures that it runs the business
in compliance with applicable laws and regulations throughout the world, and protects the users’ right to manage personal
information. A response procedure has been stipulated to inform users of any possible cost and necessary actions needed to be
taken
4. Risks of core personnel turnover and countermeasures
A stable and high-quality talent team for game development, operation and management is an important guarantee for the
Company to maintain its core competitive advantage. If the Company fails to effectively build a core talent team, give reasonable
incentives and manages the core personnel, the employees’ enthusiasm and creativity will be affected, which will have an adverse
impact on the Company’s core competitiveness.
In response, much attention has been attached to cultivation and acquisition of professional talents. The Company creatively
builds a platform-based talent management mechanism, according to which excellent game producers are rewarded with high
project bonus, and given discretion of research and creation. In order to attract and retain outstanding management talents and
business elites, the Company has vigorously reformed the project mechanism, encouraged “bottom-up” project creation,
shortened the review cycle and established diversified indicators, so as to stimulate the innovative vitality of employees. In terms
of employee performance appraisal, the Company has broken the traditional salary incentive system based on gross billing, and set
up diversified KPIs based on employees' contribution and ability, and set up flexible team appraisal standards to encourage
employees’ creativity. Through the above mechanism changes, the Company increases the attractiveness to core staffs and R&D
personnel.
The Company has established “37 Interactive Entertainment University” to provide sufficient training and learning
opportunities for employees and help them grow rapidly. At the same time, “37 Interactive Entertainment University” has set up
academies with different specializations in each business group, focusing on professional empowerment and talent cultivation
around different needs for professional skill growth.

Part VIII Financial Statements
I Independent Auditor’s Report
Type of the independent auditor’s opinion Unmodified unqualified opinion
Date of report signing 29 April 2021
Name of the independent auditor Huaxing Certified Public Accountants LLP
Name of the certified public accountants Yang Xinchun and Zhang Fengbo
Independent Auditor’s Report
To all the shareholders of Wuhu 37 Interactive Entertainment Network Technology Group Co., Ltd.:
I Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of Wuhu 37 Interactive Entertainment Network Technology Group Co., Ltd.
(hereinafter referred to as the “Company”), which comprise the consolidated and the Company’s balance sheets as at 31 December
2020, the consolidated and the Company’s income statements, the consolidated and the Company’s cash flow statements, and the
consolidated and the Company’s statements of changes in shareholders’ equity for the year then ended, as well as the notes to the
financial statements.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated and the
Company’s financial positions as at 31 December 2020, and the consolidated and the Company’s operating results and cash flows
for the year then ended, in conformity with China’s Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises (CAS).
II Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audits in accordance with the Audit Standards for Chinese Registered Accountants. Our responsibilities
under those standards are further described in the Auditor’s Responsibilities for Audit of Financial Statements section of our report.
We are independent of the Company in accordance with the China Code of Ethics for Certified Public Accountants, and we have
fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with the said Code of Ethics. We believe that the audit evidence we have
obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.
III Key Audit Matters
Key audit matters are those matters that, in our professional judgment, were of most significance in our audit of the financial
statements of the current period. These matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements as a whole,
and in forming our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate opinion on these matters.
(I) Revenue recognition
1. Description
As described in Notes III - XXVI Revenue and V - XXXIII Operating Revenue and Cost of Sales," the Company is mainly engaged in
the R&D and (independent and joint) operation of online games. The operation of online games depends highly on internal control
and IT system, leading to inherent risk in revenue recognition, so we highlighted the revenue recognition of online games as a key
audit matter.
2. Response to audit
Should there be any discrepancy between the English version and the Chinese version of this Report, the Chinese version shall prevail.
72
(1) The Company investigated and tested revenue-related internal controls and assessed the appropriateness of the key control
points of internal control and the effectiveness of the operation of internal controls.
(2) The Company performed IT audit. The consistency between the background recharge amount and consumption amount of
some games and the financial information was tested. The exactness of the consumption amount of ingots at period end was
verified. Game operation data such as average number of online users, number of paying uses and average consumption amount
per user were checked for their consistency with revenue data.
(3) The Company checked the accuracy of revenue accounting and estimate. To align the accounting process with the time
cycle of reconciliation or settlement and follow the accrual basis of accounting, the Company makes revenue estimates based on the
recharge amount and the agreed revenue distribution scheme or the actual consumption amount at month end and adjusts the
revenue estimates according to the actually settled revenues; thus, the accuracy of revenue estimates directly influences the
accuracy of revenue recognition. The accuracy of revenue estimates was assessed by sampling some major games and checking the
estimated monthly or annual revenues of these sampled games against the settled revenues in terms of the average discrepancy
between the estimated and settled revenues.
(4) The Company checked the collection of accounts receivable from sales. Third-party collections/payments or bank deposit
receipts were checked, focusing on the consistency between the original documents and book records in terms of the recipient and
amount of payment.
(5) The Company performed follow-up test. A follow up test was conducted on accounts receivable to check whether they were
collected in time and whether there were chargebacks to customers. Period-end estimated revenues were checked against revenues
settled after the Reporting Period for assessing the existence of major discrepancies between the estimated and actually settled
revenues.
(II) Internet traffic fee charges
1. Description
As described in Note V. (XXXV) Distribution and Selling Expenses, the Internet traffic fee charges in the 2020 consolidated
financial statements amount to RMB8.015 billion. Because Internet traffic fee charges amount to a substantial amount and there is
inherent risk in terms of their exactness and accuracy, we highlighted the exactness and accuracy of Internet traffic charges as a key
audit matter.
2. Response to audit
The major audit procedures performed to address the exactness and accuracy of Internet traffic fee charges include:
(1) We investigated and tested Internet traffic fee charges-related internal controls and assessed the effectiveness of the design
and operation of relevant internal controls;
(2) We performed an analytical review to comparatively analyze the proportion of and variation in the monthly Internet traffic
fee charges and assess the appropriateness of the variation;
(3) We performed a detail test on Internet traffic charges by checking the supporting documents of large vouchers, such as
contracts, invoices, bills of payment and statements of accounts, and reviewing the accuracy of such charges;
(4) We performed external confirmations by checking the amounts of transactions and the balance of the accounts
payable/receivable between the Company and its major suppliers and verifying the exactness and completeness of distribution and
selling expenses through letters of confirmation;
(5) We performed a cut-off test on the Internet traffic fee charges recognized before and after the date of balance sheet,
focusing on whether there are major inter-period adjustments.
IV Other Information
The Company’s management is responsible for the other information. The other information comprises all of the information
included in the Company’s 2020 Annual Report other than the financial statements and our auditor’s report thereon.
Should there be any discrepancy between the English version and the Chinese version of this Report, the Chinese version shall prevail.
73
Our opinion on the financial statements does not cover the other information and we do not express any form of assurance
conclusion thereon.
In connection with our audit of the financial statements, our responsibility is to read the other information and, in doing so,
consider whether the other information is materially inconsistent with the financial statements or our knowledge obtained in the
audit or otherwise appears to be materially misstated.
If, based on the work we have performed, we conclude that there is a material misstatement of this other information, we are
required to report that fact. We have nothing to report in this regard.
V Responsibilities of Management and Those Charged with Governance for Financial Statements
The Company’s management is responsible for the preparation of the financial statements that give a fair view in accordance
with CAS, and for designing, implementing and maintaining such internal control as the management determines is necessary to
enable the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
In preparing the financial statements, the management is responsible for assessing the Company’s ability to continue as a going
concern, and using the going concern basis of accounting unless the management either intends to liquidate the Company or to
cease operations, or have no realistic alternative but to do so.
Those charged with governance are responsible for overseeing the Company’s financial reporting process.
VI Auditor’s Responsibilities for Audit of Financial Statements
Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material
misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor’s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a
high level of assurance, but is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with CAS will always detect a material
misstatement when it exists. Misstatements can arise from fraud or error and are considered material if, individually or in the
aggregate, they could reasonably be expected to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of these financial
statements.
As part of an audit in accordance with CAS, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism
throughout the audit. We also:
(1) Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, design and
perform audit procedures responsive to those risks, and obtain audit evidence that is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our opinion. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as
fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
(2) Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in
the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing opinion on the effectiveness of internal control.
(3) Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates and related
disclosures made by the management.
(4) Conclude on the appropriateness of the management’s use of the going concern basis of accounting and, based on the
audit evidence obtained, whether a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the
Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required by CAS to draw
users’ attention in our auditor’s report to the related disclosures in the financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to
modify our opinion. Our conclusions are based on the audit evidence obtained up to the date of our auditor’s report. However,
future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern.
(5) Evaluate the overall presentation, structure and content of the financial statements, and whether the financial statements
represent the underlying transactions and events in a manner that achieves fair presentation.
(6) Obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business activities within
the Company to express an opinion on the financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and performance
Should there be any discrepancy between the English version and the Chinese version of this Report, the Chinese version shall prevail.
74
of the Company audit. We remain solely responsible for our audit opinion.
We communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the
audit and significant audit findings, including any noteworthy deficiencies in internal control that we identify during our audit.
We also provide those charged with governance with a statement that we have complied with relevant ethical requirements
regarding independence, and communicate with them all relationships and other matters that may reasonably be thought to bear
on our independence, and where applicable, related safeguards.
From the matters communicated with those charged with governance, we determine those matters that were of most
significance in the audit of the financial statements of the current period and are therefore the key audit matters. We describe these
matters in our auditor’s report unless law or regulation precludes public disclosure about the matter or when, in extremely rare
circumstances, we determine that a matter should not be communicated in our report because the adverse consequences of doing
so would reasonably be expected to outweigh the public interest benefits of such communication.
