Lawrence Wang, CEO of Dragon Venture, comments, "As an incubator of high-tech companies in China, we seek to acquire a variety of emerging high-tech companies in China. After the huge success of online games and search engines in China, we believe E-commerce will be the third profit field based on the Internet in China. Only 5% of over 5 million Chinese companies have E-commerce operations. With a 5% additional penetration of the existing market, revenues could potentially grow to an excess of US$300 million in additional annual sales. We expect Chengku will generate over US$10 million in sales with US$2 million in net income in 2006 with adequate funding. The acquisition of Chengku, a rapidly growing company with innovative technologies and operations, will be another important step for us to build an exclusive network of high-tech companies operating in China."
