In 2023, the overseas expansion market scale of online literature exceeded 4 billion yuan, with around 230 million overseas users covering over 200 countries and regions worldwide. China's online literature market size increased by 3.8% year-on-year, and the online literature IP market size reached 260.5 billion yuan, up 3.4% year-on-year. The driving forces behind the growth of online literature IP include the gradual maturity of the IP pre-development model, significant incremental contributions from sectors such as film, animation, and short dramas, as well as AI technology facilitating the online literature IP ecosystem. The growth rate of the domestic online literature market is slowing down.

Turing Children's GPT 'Tingwa' has undergone a significant upgrade by deeply collaborating with Alpha Animation to integrate the Super Wings Leddy IP, resulting in the launch of the Tingwa 'Super Wings•Leddy' version. This co-branded version's main highlights include the one-click summon of the IP 'Super Wings•Leddy', the abilities of the 'Super Wings•Leddy' AI robot, and the structural composition of the Leddy AI robot. Alpha Animation, as the first listed company of Chinese animation IP, has strategically partnered with Turing Robot to enable children to interact more immersively with anime IP characters, enhancing product stickiness and added value.

WeChat Literature Group's revenue in the first half decreased by nearly 20% year-on-year. Although net profit has stopped declining and rebounded, the outlook is far from optimistic. The number of paid reading users continues to decline, and users' willingness to pay is weak.
