The company's revenue model combines investment returns and asset management fees, infrastructure project development for municipal clients, and cultural industry operations including the internationally recognized Zigong lantern festival and tourism assets. The GTM motion is sales-led through direct engagement with Zigong municipal government agencies and institutional partners; pricing is negotiated per-project basis rather than publicly disclosed.
