Lining (02331) chief executive Zhang Zhiyong said after the shareholders' meeting that the company will hold the order meeting in the fourth quarter of this year in Xi'an tomorrow. He estimated that the reaction would be better than before, because last winter's freeze was not expected to be hot this year, so it would be optimistic about the order.

Chief financial officer Zhong Yi Qi said that the fourth quarter order would increase, but did not disclose the increase.

Zhang Zhiyong pointed out that the market expects China's sporting goods market to increase by 16% this year.
