Our revenues from global payments, domestic payments, and value-added services all grew by over 20%. Strong synergies between our domestic and global payment businesses steadily expanded overall transaction volume. Our performance is supported by 65 payment licenses worldwide, a robust compliance framework, and over two decades of experience serving global SMEs and merchant customers. Looking ahead, we will continue to leverage our global compliance network to make our “internal and external coordination” mechanism even more effective, further enhancing our core competitiveness in cross‑border payments and value‑added services.”

 

Ms. Wei Ping, CFO of Lianlian DigiTech, said, “In the past six months, Lianlian DigiTech has significantly enhanced operational efficiency through refined management and continuous innovation. We systematically optimized our cost structure and leveraged economies of scale to successfully reduce the proportion of major expenses to revenue. These efforts have enabled us to maintain sustainable profitability while continue to invest in strategic initiatives, keeping us well ahead of the competition. Looking ahead, we will continue to innovate and deepen our strategic presence to deliver greater returns to our shareholders.”

In a time when readers are looking for stories that reflect their lives and culture while still offering adventure and inspiration, “My Hip-Hop Wiz” arrives with something rare. Written by Innton Tagger, this fresh reimagining of “The Wizard of Oz” takes readers on a journey that combines rhythm, struggle, self-discovery, and the energy of hip-hop into a powerful and highly original story. With modern characters, real emotion, and a strong message about growth and identity, this novel offers something for everyone who has ever tried to find their way in the middle of chaos.

Dorothy Jones is not the girl from Kansas. She is a successful Las Vegas real estate boss with style, drive, and a loyal Rottweiler named Governor. After a strange storm pulls her Lamborghini into another world, she finds herself on a road filled with bizarre dangers, powerful allies, and unexpected tests. From magical sneakers to nightclubs and cipher battles, Dorothy must face a world ruled by the manipulative Queen Malanija and find a way to get home. Along the way, she is joined by a dancing Scarecrow, a rebuilt Tinman, and a fierce but wounded Lion. Together, they learn what it means to be brave, to heal, and to belong.

This story goes far beyond fantasy. It is packed with emotion, humor, and cultural depth. “My Hip-Hop Wiz” introduces readers to a world that pulses with music and meaning, where hip-hop legends and sports icons guide the characters with real-life wisdom. The city of Emerald, the Yellow Brick Road, and even the final battle feel familiar but completely new. At its core, the book is about believing in yourself. Dorothy’s journey is not just about escaping a magical world; it is about facing fears, letting go of self-doubt, and discovering the power that has always been inside her.

Innton Tagger brings real experience and heart to every page. His own story is one of hardship, loss, rebuilding, and purpose. After losing his father at 12 and his mother at 26, Tagger faced the kind of grief that could bury anyone. Instead, he chose to rise, rebuilding himself from the ground up through various life chapters—from cutting hair across from the Market Street Swapmeet to working at 310 Motoring, from serving as Vision Keeper at World Changers Church to driving for Uber and collecting stories from every ride. After facing significant personal losses and professional setbacks, he chose to create something that reflects both the pain and the beauty of the journey.

“My Hip-Hop Wiz” is not just a novel. It is a movement for anyone who has ever felt left behind or underestimated. It is for dreamers, fighters, and those learning to stand tall again. The book speaks to readers who love adventure, humor, urban culture, and stories that celebrate the power of music and community to heal and uplift. Written with playful banter, witty dialogue, and scenes that balance action with genuine emotion, the novel offers a unique voice in today’s literary landscape.

“My Hip-Hop Wiz” is now available in paperback, digital, and audiobook formats.

On August 19th, the manifestation “Pakostane Liquid Gold” was held for the first time in Pakostane, a gastronomic evening dedicated to olive oil, organized by the Tourist Board of the Municipality of Pakostane.

Vrana Peasant Code – The Trace of Olives in History

Olive trees and vines have shaped the life and identity of Pakostane for centuries. Even in the Vrana Peasant Code from 1454, written in Zadar, there is a provision that obligated peasants to plant olive trees: “…every peasant is obliged to plant one hundred olive saplings within four years, otherwise they will not have privileges…”

This record testifies to the importance of olive growing in the life of the local population, as well as to the continuity that lasts to this day. There is hardly a house in the Pakostane region that doesn’t have at least a few olive trees – a heritage that is passed down through generations and has shaped the spirit of the place.

The Best Oils from Pakostane – Tradition Transformed into Awards

Pakostane olive growers have been multiply awarded for producing “liquid gold” at various domestic and international competitions. The year 2025 particularly stood out, when at prestigious competitions such as the New York International Olive Oil Competition, Berlin, and London, everything was marked by the oils of the Pakostane region.

Namely, seven magnificent producers returned to Pakostane with six gold and one silver medal, confirming that Pakostane stands alongside the best olive-growing regions in the world.

Pakostane Liquid Gold – A Manifestation of Olive Treasure

The manifestation “Pakostane Liquid Gold” was dedicated to olive oil and local gastronomy. Producers and visitors gathered on the waterfront to enjoy the tasting of extra virgin olive oils.

An experienced chef created a special gastronomic experience by preparing carefully designed bites from local ingredients that revealed the full character and aromatic personality of the oils from the Pakostane region. Visitors had the opportunity to taste championship oils and also combine the chef’s dishes with the character of each oil. They could enjoy risotto with cuttlefish and beans, cuttlefish stew, shrimp with pasta shells, and salsa with tomatoes that perfectly complement Pakostane oils. Pakostane once again confirmed that olive oil is not just an addition to dishes, but the core of Pakostane cuisine and identity.

Award-winning Pakostane Oils:

At the most famous world competition in the USA, Pakostane was represented by a true oil fairy tale:

• Vinko Lalin – Dalma Premium (OPG Lalin)
• Branka and Slavo Stojanov – Oblica didinih vrtova (OPG Didini vrtovi)
• Mario Baresic Cico – Skipper (Craft “Skipper Drage”)
• Tomislav Cudina – Olea Viola (OPG Celini)
• Ante Lokin – Oblica (OPG Cace moga)
• Ante Vulin – Antino ulje (OPG Ante Vulin)
• Sebastijan Adzic – Leut (Leut grupa d.o.o.)

Their oils, created through the combination of land, sun, and love for the olive tree, enchanted international experts. The won medals are not only recognition for individuals, but for the entire community, confirming that the Pakostane region is a true empire of olive oil.

Pakostane – Destination of Golden Olive Oils

With its century-old tradition, award-winning oils, and the manifestation “Pakostane Liquid Gold,” Pakostane can rightfully be called a destination of golden olive oils today. What was once a peasant vow – to plant and preserve olives – has today been transformed into a brand that carries the name of the place around the world.

The manifestation was not just a gastronomic experience, but also a message about the importance of preserving the long tradition and heritage of this region. Every drop of oil, every bite, and every word of the olive growers testified to the connection between man and land, and Pakostane once again confirmed itself as a guardian of heritage.
