This great event will certainly arouse wide concern inside and outside the sport circle."

The powerful strength of Evergrande is the strong backing of the volleyball team

A reputable personage of the volleyball circle who participated in the news conference pointed out that as the performance of Evergrande Real Estate Group has increased to a large extent in 2009, the more and more powerful strength of the group will guarantee the success of the Sino-USA women’s volleyball team dual meet. In many people’s opinion, an international contest between a First Division Group B Club Team of China and the USA National Women’s Volleyball Team just exists in the imagination. But the powerful economic strength of Evergrande Real Estate Group makes this imagination become the reality.

According to the performance report announced by Evergrande Real Estate Group at the beginning of January, from January to December of last year, the accumulative realized contracted sales amount of Evergrande Real Estate Group reaches about 30.3 billion yuan, with an increase of 402.3% compared with that of the previous year. The sales plan of 30 billion yuan of contracted sales amount has been successfully achieved. The accumulative contracted sales area is about 5,637,000 square meters, with an increase of 396.5% compared with that of the previous year. On this basis, the sales target in 2010 of Evergrande Real Estate Group will reach 40 billion yuan.

The fast development of Evergrande Real Estate Group has provided the solid material foundation for the construction and breakthrough of EWVT. The successful realization of the Evergrande Sino-USA Women’s Volleyball Dual Meet will be impossible without the strong financial support of Evergrande Real Estate Group.
