beneficially owned financial
"The percentage of Class A ordinary shares beneficially owned is based on a total of 191,152,162 Class A ordinary shares"
Beneficially owned describes securities or assets where a person has the economic rights and control—such as the right to receive dividends and to direct voting—even if legal title is held in another name. Think of it like having the keys and using a car that’s registered to someone else: you get the benefits and make decisions. Investors care because beneficial ownership reveals who truly controls value and voting power, affecting corporate decisions and takeover dynamics.
aggregate voting power financial
"Percent of aggregate Voting power(3): 1.48%"
estate planning financial
"for no consideration in connection with estate planning by Mr. Zhaofeng Zhao"
A set of instructions and legal steps that decide who gets your money, property and other assets, and who will manage them if you become unable to do so. For investors it matters because thoughtful planning can reduce taxes and delays, protect heirs, and keep investments from being tied up in court—think of it as a clear map and emergency kit that preserves value and directs where assets go when you can’t.
private transaction financial
"transferred 5,500,000 Class A ordinary shares to Amazing Radiant Limited in a private transaction for no consideration"
A private transaction is the sale or transfer of securities, assets, or ownership stakes carried out directly between a small number of parties rather than on a public exchange. For investors it matters because these deals are less visible and often less liquid than public trades, so pricing can be harder to verify, the investment can be harder to sell quickly, and buyers or sellers may gain strategic advantages not available in open markets — like negotiated terms similar to a private garage sale versus a crowded marketplace.
