NEC Group has several major businesses in China, which I have just briefly introduced. For example, in the field of information, we are currently in China. In terms of IT technology, NEC Information Company is our head office, with many branches in Shanghai, Dalian and Xi 'an. The company's future goal is to strive to enter the top ten information system integration in China. At present, only Japanese capital has access to the largest information system in China.
At present, our software outsourcing in China has always been the largest, that is, exporting software to Japan. For example, our three systems company in Beijing currently accounts for one-third of Beijing's software exports, which is a big information plan. In addition, we will increase our R&D strength in China. China Research Institute was established in September last year, and we plan to reach the scale of 100 people around next year.
Of course, in terms of semiconductors and electronic materials, we have invested heavily in China, and both Shanghai and Beijing will make great development plans in China in the future.
NEC company was founded in 1899, and this year is 105. But also the first US-Japan joint venture in Japan. It was an international company from the beginning. Up to now, I feel that the corporate culture of this company is innovation first, including our slogan. Of course, the strength comes from innovation. This is the first one.
The second is a humanized company, which may be related to enterprises in the East and pay more attention to humanized management.
