From January to February, Hainan's offshore duty-free sales increased by 38% year-on-year, and China Free Trade Co., Ltd.'s revenue and performance increased by 20% year-on-year, and net profit margin rebounded significantly; but it is expected to decline in March.

The three major hotel groups disclosed their 2021 financial reports. The epidemic disturbed the opening rhythm of the Songcheng project. In 2021, Jinjiang Huazhu reduced losses, and the CET turned losses into profits. The epidemic was under pressure over and over again in 21Q4. Looking ahead to 2022, Jinjiang's store opening target will remain the same year-on-year, with revenue expected to increase by 20-25% (9%-14%); Huazhu expects revenue to increase by 15-20% (4-9%) in 2022, and new stores will remain the same year-on-year; CTO's store opening target will accelerate in 2022, and plans to open 1,800-2,000 new stores (previously 1,400-1,600), leading the light management stage.
