2. Basis of Presentation and Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation - For the six months ended June 30, 2008 and 2007, the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. The subsidiaries include eight Sino-foreign Joint-ventures mentioned in Note 1. Significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America.

Foreign Currencies - The Company maintains its books and records in Renminbi, “RMB”, the currency of the PRC, its functional currency. Foreign currency transactions in RMB are reflected using the temporal method. Under this method, all monetary items are translated into the functional currency at the rate of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Non-monetary items are translated at historical rates. Income and expenses are translated at the rate in effect on the transaction dates. Transaction gains and losses, if any, are included in the determination of net income for the period.

In translating the financial statements of the Company from its functional currency into its reporting currency in United States dollars, balance sheet accounts are translated using the closing exchange rate in effect at the balance sheet date and income and expense accounts are translated using an average exchange rate prevailing during the reporting period. Adjustments resulting from the translation, if any, are included in cumulative other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity.

Income Per Share - Basic income per share is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted income per share is calculated based on the treasury stock method, assuming the issuance of common shares, if dilutive, resulting from the exercise of warrants. The dilutive effect of convertible securities is reflected in diluted earnings per share by application of the “if converted” method.

The calculations of diluted income per share were:

	Three Months Ended June 30,

		27,394,392		23,956,740
Net income per common share- diluted	$	0.36	$	0.17

During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2008, the options and warrants outstanding have not been included in the computation of diluted income per share, except the options issued on June 26, 2008, because such inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect. The shares issuable upon conversion of Convertible Debt have been included in the computation.

During the three months and six months ended June 30, 2007, the 156,250 shares underlying warrants issued to Cornell Capital Partners, LP on March 20, 2006, and 22,500 options issued to independent directors on July 16, 2006 have not been included in the computation of diluted income per share because such inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect.

Stock-Based Compensation - The Company may periodically issue shares of common stock for services rendered or for financing costs. Such shares will be valued based on the market price on the transaction date. The Company may periodically issue stock options to employees and stock options or warrants to non-employees in non-capital raising transactions for services and for financing costs.

In July 2004, the Company adopted a stock incentive plan. The maximum number of common shares for issuance under this plan is 2,200,000 with a period of 10 years. The stock incentive plan provides for the issuance, to the Company’s officers, directors, management and employees, of options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock. As of June 30, 2008, the Company has issued 112,500 stock options under this plan and there remain 2,087,500 stock options issuable in the future.

- 14 -

The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123R, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”, which establishes a fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans. In accordance with SFAS No. 123R, the cost of stock options and warrants issued to employees and non-employees is measured on the grant date based on the fair value. The fair value is determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The resulting amount is charged to expense on the straight-line basis over the period in which the Company expects to receive benefit, which is generally the vesting period.

Comprehensive Income - The Company has adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, “Reporting Comprehensive Income” (“SFAS No. 130”). SFAS No. 130 establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances in a full set of general purpose financial statements. SFAS No. 130 defines comprehensive income to include all changes in equity except those resulting from investments by owners and distributions to owners, including adjustments to minimum pension liabilities, accumulated foreign currency translation, and unrealized gains or losses on marketable securities.

Estimation -The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Financial instruments - Derivative financial instruments, as defined in Financial Accounting Standard No. 133, Accounting for Derivative Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities (FAS 133), consist of financial instruments or other contracts that contain a notional amount and one or more underlying, e.g. interest rate, security price or other variable, require no initial net investment and permit net settlement. Derivative financial instruments may be free-standing or embedded in other financial instruments. Further, derivative financial instruments are initially, and subsequently, measured at fair value and recorded as liabilities or, in rare instances, assets.

The Company generally does not use derivative financial instruments to hedge exposures to cash-flow, market or foreign-currency risks. However, we have entered into certain other financial instruments and contracts, such as debt financing arrangements that embody features that are either (i) not afforded equity classification, (ii) embody risks not clearly and closely related to host contracts, or (iii) may be net-cash settled by the counterparty. As required by FAS 133, these instruments are required to be carried as derivative liabilities, at fair value, in our financial statements.

Registration Payment Arrangements - The Company has entered into registration payment arrangements with certain investors that provide for the payment of damages for failures to register common shares underlying the investor’s financial instruments. FASB Staff Position 00-19-2, Accounting for Registration Payment Arrangements, provides for the exclusion of registration payments, such as the liquidated damages, from the consideration of classification of financial instruments. Rather, such registration payments would be accounted for pursuant to Financial Accounting Standard No. 5 Accounting for Contingencies, which is our current accounting practice. That is, all registration payments will require recognition when they are both probable and reasonably estimable. We do not currently believe that damages are probable.

Fair Value Measurements-Effective January 1, 2008, we adopted the provisions of FAS 157, Fair Value Measurements, except as it applies to those nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities as noted in proposed FSP FAS 157-b. The partial adoption of FAS 157 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. This statement does not require any new fair value measurements, but provides guidance on how to measure fair value by providing a fair value hierarchy used to classify the source of the information. In February 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No.157, which delays the effective date of SFAS No. 157 for all nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities, except for items that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually).

*The Company provides for the estimated cost of product warranties when the products are sold. Such estimates of product warranties were based on, among other things, historical experience, product changes, material expenses, service and transportation expenses arising from the manufactured product. Estimates will be adjusted on the basis of actual claims and circumstances.

For the six months ended June 30, 2008 (unaudited) and the year ended December 31, 2007, the warranties activities were as follows:

	June 30, 2008			December 31, 2007
Balance at the beginning of period	$	4,919,491		$	2,954,326
Additions during the period-		2,795,671			5,228,556
Settlement within period, by cash or actual material		(1,571,900	)		(3,529,875	)
Foreign currency translation		329,161			266,484
Balance at end of period	$	6,472,423		$	4,919,491

The Company has recorded $6,472,423 and $ 4,919,491 product warranty reserves for the six months ended June 30, 2008 (unaudited) and the year ended December 31, 2007, which were included in the accrued expenses and other payables in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements.

**In connection with the Convertible Debt, the Company issued 1,317,864 of detachable warrants, “Warrants,” to purchase from the Company shares of common stock at the exercise price of US$ 8.8527 per share, subject to adjustments upon certain events occurring. The Warrants are exercisable immediately and will expire on February 15, 2009.

The exercise price or the number of shares to be converted by the Warrant will be adjusted in the event of no effective Registration Statement or delayed effectiveness of the Registration Statement. In addition a damage penalty will be paid if the delivery of share certificates occurs upon the Warrants conversion.

The Company will not effect any conversion of a Warrant, and each holder of any Warrant will not have the right to convert any portion of such Warrant to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, each of these two holders would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion.

If and whenever on or after the issuance date, the Company issues or sells its shares of common stock or other convertible securities for a consideration per share less than a price equal to the exercise price of a Warrant in effect on the issuance date immediately prior to such issue or sale, the exercise price of such Warrant then in effect will be adjusted.

The warrants issued in connection with the financial arrangement were derivative instruments. The warrants require net cash settlement in the event that there is a fundamental transaction, contractually defined as a merger, sale of substantially all assets, tender offer or share exchange.

As a result of FASB Staff Position (FSP) FAS 150-5, it appears that the warrants require liability classification due to the possible cash redemption upon the event of an all cash acquisition. The FSP clarifies that warrants that contain any redemption features, including contingent redemption features, must be recorded as liabilities and marked to fair value each reporting period. As of the issuance date, i.e, February 15, 2008, the fair value of warrants was $798,626. Such warrant liabilities will be adjusted to its estimated fair value at the completion of each reporting period until the maturity of February 15, 2009. As of June 30, 2008, the fair value of warrants was $580,388, which was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The income from adjustment of fair value of liabilities in connection with warrants has been recorded in the income statement as gain or loss on change in fair value of derivative.

12. Accrued pension costs

Since the Company’s operations are all located in China, all the employees are located in China. The Company records pension costs and various employment benefits in accordance with the relevant Chinese social security laws, which is substantially based on a total of 31% of base salary as required by local governments. Base salary levels are the average salary determined by the local governments.

The activities in the Company’s pension account during the six months ended June 30, 2008 (unaudited) and the year ended December 31, 2007 are summarized as follows:

14. Amounts due to shareholders/ directors

The activities in the amounts due to shareholders/directors at June 30, 2008 (unaudited) and December 31, 2007 are summarized as follows:

	June 30, 2008			December 31, 2007
Balance at the beginning of period	$	304,601		$	358,065

Foreign currency translation		28,829			31,012
Balance at end of period	$	250,820		$	304,601

The amounts due to shareholders/directors were unsecured, interest-free and repayable on demand.

15. Advances payable

The amounts mainly represent advances made by the Chinese government to the Company as subsidy on interest on loans related to production facilities expansion.

The balances are unsecured, interest-free and will be repayable to the Chinese government if the usage of such advance does not continue to qualify for the subsidy (see notes 20).

16. Derivative liabilities

The Company has evaluated the convertible notes for terms and conditions that are not clearly and closely associated with the risks of the debt-type host instrument (see Note 17). Generally, such features require separation from the host contract and treatment as derivative financial instruments. Certain features, such as the conversion option, were found to be exempt. Other features, such as puts and redemption features, were found to require bifurcation and recognition as derivative liabilities. These derivative liabilities are recognized initially at fair value, using forward cash-flow valuation techniques. As of February 15, 2008, the compound derivative value amounted to $1,703,962. This derivative will be adjusted to its estimated fair value at the completion of each reporting period until the debt arrangement is ultimately settled, converted or paid. As of June 30, 2008, the compound derivative value amounted to $927,047. The income from adjustment of fair value of compound derivative has been recorded in the income statement as gain or loss on change in fair value of derivative.

17. Convertible notes payable

In February 2008, the Company sold to two accredited institutional investors $35 million of convertible debt, the "Convertible Debt", with a scheduled maturity date of February 15, 2013. The Convertible Debt, including any accrued but unpaid interest, is convertible into common shares of the Company at a conversion price of $8.8527 per share, subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events.

The Convertible Debt bears annual interest rates of 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5% and 5% for each year of 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011 and 2012. The interest on the Convertible Debt shall be computed commencing from the issuance date and will be payable in cash in arrears semi-annually on January 15, and July 15 of each year with the first interest payable date being July 15, 2008. From and after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default defined in the relevant Convertible Debt agreements, the interest rate then in effect shall be increased by two percent (2%) until the event of default is remedied .

The holders of the Convertible Debt will be entitled to convert any portion of the conversion amount into shares of common stock at the conversion price at any time or times on or after the thirtieth (30th) day after the issuance date and prior to the thirtieth (30th) Business Day prior to the expiry date of the Convertible Debt. A damage penalty will be paid if share certificates are not delivered timely after any conversion.

- 22 -

The Company will have the right to require the Convertible Debt holders to convert all or any portion of the conversion amount then remaining under the Convertible Debt obligation into shares of common stock, “ Mandatory Conversion”, if at any time during a six-month period, the beginning day of each such six-month period, a “Mandatory Conversion Period Start Date”, the arithmetic average of the weighted average price of the common stock for a period of at least thirty (30) consecutive trading days following the Mandatory Conversion Period Start Date equals or exceeds the percentage of $8.8527 set forth in the chart below as applicable to the indicated six month period:

0-6 months:	125	%
6-12 months:	125	%
12-18 months:	135	%
18-24 months:	135	%
24-30 months:	145	%
30-36 months:	145	%
36-42 months:	155	%
42-48 months:	155	%

On each six month anniversary of the issuance date beginning August 15, 2008, the conversion price will be adjusted downward to the Reset Reference Price, as defined below, if the weighted average price for the twenty (20) consecutive trading days immediately prior to the applicable six month anniversary, the “Reset Reference Price”, is less than 95% of the conversion price in effect as of such applicable six month anniversary date. The foregoing notwithstanding, the conversion price will not be reduced via such reset provision to less than $7.0822. The conversion price is also subject to weighted-average antidilution adjustments, but in no event will the conversion price be reduced to less than $6.7417. If and whenever on or after the issuance date, the Company issues or sells its shares of Common Stock or other convertible securities, except for certain defined exempt issuances, for a consideration per share less than a price equal to the conversion price in effect on the issuance date immediately prior to such issue or sale, the original conversion price then in effect shall be adjusted by a weighted-average antidilution formula, but in no event to a new conversion price less than $6.4717.

The Company will not effect any conversion of the Convertible Debt, and each holder of the Convertible Debt will not have the right to convert any portion of the Convertible Debt to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, such holder would beneficially own in excess of 4.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion.

The Company will not effect a Mandatory Conversion of more than twelve percent (12%) of the original principal amount of the Convertible Debt, with the applicable accrued but unpaid interest, in any six month period or twenty-four percent (24%) of the original principal amount of the Convertible Debt, with the applicable accrued but unpaid interest, in any twelve (12) month period.

Upon the occurrence of an event of default with respect to the Convertible Debt, the Convertible Debt holders may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Convertible Debt. Each portion of the Convertible Debt subject to redemption by the Company will be redeemed by the Company at a price equal to the sum of (i) the conversion amount to be redeemed and (ii) the Other Make Whole Amount. The “Other Make Whole Amount” will mean a premium to the conversion amount such that the total amount received by the Convertible Debt holder upon redemption represents a gross yield to the Convertible Debt holders on the original principal amount as of the redemption date equal to thirteen percent (13%), with interest computed on the basis of actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year. The events of default includes the Company’s failure to cure a conversion failure by delivery of the required number of shares of Common Stock, the Company’s failure to pay to the Convertible Debt holder any amount of principal, interest, late charges or other amounts when and as due under the Convertible Debt and other events as defined in the Convertible Debt agreements.

- 23 -

Upon the consummation of a change of control as defined in the Convertible Debt agreements, the Convertible Debt holder may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Convertible Debt. The portion of the Convertible Debt subject to redemption shall be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the sum of the conversion amount of being redeemed and the Other Make Whole Amount as defined above.

On each of February 15, 2010 and February 15, 2011, the Convertible Debt holders will have the right, in their sole discretion, to require that the Company redeem the Convertible Debt in whole but not in part, by delivering written notice thereof to the Company. The portion of this Convertible Debt subject to redemption pursuant to this annual redemption right will be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the sum of the conversion amount being redeemed and the Annual Redemption Make Whole Amount. The “Annual Redemption Make Whole Amount” will mean a premium to the conversion amount such that the total amount received by the Convertible Debt holder upon any annual redemption represents a gross yield on the original principal amount of eleven percent (11%), with interest computed on the basis of actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year.

In the event that the Company has not completed the necessary filings to list the conversion shares on its principal market by the date that is ninety (90) days after the issuance date or has not so listed the conversion shares by the date that is ninety (90) days after the issuance date or the shares of the Company’s common stock are terminated from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, the Convertible Debt holders will have the right, in its sole discretion, to require that the Company redeem all or any portion of the Convertible Debt. The portion of the Convertible Debt subject to redemption in connection with this listing default will be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the sum of the conversion amount being redeemed and the Other Make Whole Amount as mentioned above.

At anytime following February 15, 2009, if the weighted average for twenty (20) consecutive trading days is less than $3.98, the Convertible Debt holder shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to require that the Company redeem all or any portion of the Convertible Debt. The portion of this Convertible Debt subject to redemption in connection with the share price change of the underlying common stock will be redeemed by the Company in cash at a price equal to the sum of the conversion amount being redeemed and the Other Make Whole Amount as mentioned above.

In connection with the Convertible Debt, the Company issued 1,317,864 detachable warrants, the “Warrants,” to purchase from the Company shares of common stock of the Company at the exercise price of $8.8527 per share. The Warrants are exercisable immediately and will expire on February 15, 2009. The Warrants require net cash settlement in the event that there is a fundamental transaction, contractually defined as a merger, sale of substantially all assets, tender offer or share exchange. Due to this contingent redemption provision, the warrants require liability classification under SFAS 150 and must be recorded at fair value each reporting period. As of the issuance date, i.e, February 15, 2008, the fair value of warrants was $798,626, which was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model.

The Company has evaluated the convertible notes for terms and conditions that are not clearly and closely associated with the risks of the debt-type host instrument. Generally, such features require separation from the host contract and treatment as derivative financial instruments. Certain features, such as the conversion option, were found to be exempt. Other features, such as puts and redemption features, were found to require bifurcation and recognition as derivative liabilities. These derivative liabilities are recognized initially at fair value, using forward cash-flow valuation techniques. As of February 15, 2008, the compound derivative value amounted to $1,703,962. This derivative will be adjusted to its estimated fair value at the completion of each reporting period until the debt arrangement is ultimately settled, converted or paid.

When a financial instrument contains embedded derivatives that require bifurcation, such as the redemption put, and freestanding instruments that are recorded at fair value each period, such as the warrants, the accounting is to record the embedded derivative and the freestanding instruments at fair value on inception and the residual proceeds are allocated to the debt instrument. Based on this premise, upon inception of the debt instruments, we recorded the redemption put at fair value $1,703,962 and we recorded the warrants at fair value $798,626. The remaining proceeds were then allocated to the debt instrument.

- 24 -

Allocation of basis in the financing arrangement to the warrants and the derivative liability has resulted in an original issue discount to the face value of the convertible notes in the amount of $2,502,588, which amount is subject to amortization over the Convertible Debt’s term using the effective method. The Company recorded amortization expense during the six months ended June 30, 2008 of $181,328.

Since the revenues, net income and net assets of these four sectors are less than 10% of its segment in the consolidated financial statements, the Company incorporated these four sectors into “other sectors”.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

The Company prepares its condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires the use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management periodically evaluates the estimates and judgments made. Management bases its estimates and judgments on historical experience and on various factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates as a result of different assumptions or conditions. The following critical accounting policies affect the more significant judgments and estimates used in the preparation of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

We consider an accounting estimate to be critical if:

• It requires us to make assumptions about matters that were uncertain at the time we were making the estimate, and

- 35 -

• Changes in the estimate or different estimates that we could have selected would have had a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations.

The table below presents information about the nature and rationale for the Company critical accounting estimates:

Balance Sheet Caption	Critical Estimate Item	Nature of Estimates Required	Assumptions/Approaches Used	Key Factors
Accrued liabilities and other long-term liabilities	Warranty Obligations	Estimating warranty requires us to forecast the resolution of existing claims and expected future claims on products sold. VMs are increasingly seeking to hold suppliers responsible for product warranties, which may impact our exposure to these costs.	We base our estimate on historical trends of units sold and payment amounts, combined with our current understanding of the status of existing claims and discussions with our customers.	• VM (Vehicle Manufacturer) sourcing • VM policy decisions regarding warranty claims VMs

Property, plant and equipment, intangible assets and other long-term assets	Valuation of long- lived assets and investments	We are required from time-to-time to review the recoverability of certain of our assets based on projections of anticipated future cash flows, including future profitability assessments of various product lines.	We estimate cash flows using internal budgets based on recent sales data, independent automotive production volume estimates and customer commitments.	• Future Production estimates •Customer preferences and decisions

Accounts and notes receivables	Provision for doubtful accounts and notes receivable	Estimating the provision for doubtful accounts and notes receivable require the Company to analyze and monitor each customer’s credit standing and financial condition regularly. The Company grants credit to its customers, generally on an open account basis. It will have material adverse effect on the Company’s cost disclosure if such assessment were improper.	The Company grants credit to its customers for three to four months based on each customer’s current credit standing and financial data. The Company assesses an allowance on an individual customer basis, under normal circumstances; the Company does not record any provision for doubtful accounts for those accounts receivable amounts which were in credit terms. For those receivables out of credit terms, certain proportional provision, namely 25% to 100%, will be recorded based on respective overdue terms.	•Customers’ credit standing and financial condition

Deferred income taxes	Recoverability of deferred tax assets	We are required to estimate whether recoverability of our deferred tax assets is more likely than not based on forecasts of taxable earnings in the related tax jurisdiction.	We use historical and projected future operating results, based upon approved business plans, including a review of the eligible carryforward period, tax planning opportunities and other relevant considerations.	• Tax law changes • Variances in future projected profitability, including by taxing entity

- 36 -

In addition, there are other items within our financial statements that require estimation, but are not as critical as those discussed above. These include the allowance for reserves for excess and obsolete inventory. Although not significant in recent years, changes in estimates used in these and other items could have a significant effect on our consolidated financial statements.

The increase in labor insurance expenses was mainly due to an increase of housing fund expenses at Henglong and Jiulong for the six months ended June 30, 2008.

The increase in supplies was mainly due to have more consumption during the construction of new joint-venture company.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Capital resources and use of cash

The Company has historically financed its liquidity requirements from a variety of sources, including short-term borrowings under bank credit agreements, bankers’ acceptance, issuances of capital stock and notes and internally generated cash. As of June 30, 2008, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $28,431,206, as compared to $19,627,606 as of June 30, 2007, an increase of $8,803,600, or 44.9%.

The Company had working capital of $69,960,683 as of June 30, 2008, as compared to $34,281,694 as of June 30, 2007, an increase of $35,678,989, or 104.1%.

Financing activities:

For the Company’s bank loans and banker’s acceptance bill facilities, the Company’s banks require the Company to sign documents to repay such facilities within one year. On the condition that the Company can provide adequate mortgage security and has not violated the terms of the line of credit agreement, it can extend such one year facilities for another year.

The Company had bank loans maturing in less than one year of $7,289,586 and bankers’ acceptances of $16,922,956 as of June 30, 2008, including $7,514,005 which was not a part of the line of credit and fully mortgaged by notes receivable.

The Company currently expects to be able to obtain similar bank loans and bankers’ acceptance bills in the future if it can provide adequate mortgage security following the termination of the above mentioned agreements. If the Company is not able to do so, it will have to refinance such debt as it becomes due or repay that debt to the extent it has cash available from operations or from the proceeds of additional issuances of capital stock. Owing to depreciation, the value of the mortgages securing the above-mentioned bank loans and banker's acceptance bills will be devalued by approximately $2,873,390. If the Company wishes to obtain the same amount of bank loans and banker's acceptance bills, it will have to provide $2,873,390 additional mortgages. The Company can obtain a reduced line of credit with a reduction of $1,647,586, if it cannot provide additional mortgages, $2,873,390 at 57% mortgage rates. The Company expects that the reduction of bank loans will not have a material adverse effect on its liquidity.

On February 15, 2008, the Company issued $35,000,000 of convertible notes to Lehman Brothers Commercial Corporation Asia Limited, and YA Global Investments, L.P., maturing in 5 years.

(a) Bank loans

As of June 30, 2008, the principal outstanding under the Company’s credit facilities and lines of credit was as follows:

	Bank	Amount available		Amount Borrowed
Comprehensive credit facilities	Bank of China	$	8,601,712	$	3,404,966
Comprehensive credit facilities	China Construction Bank		9,476,462		3,644,793

Comprehensive credit facilities	Bank of Communications Co., Ltd		2,915,834		1,071,569
Total		$	41,340,701	$	16,698,537

The Company may request banks to issue notes payable or bank loans within its credit line using a 364-day revolving line.

The Company refinanced its short-term debt during early 2008 at annual interest rates of 6.84% to 7.72%, and for terms of six to twelve months. Pursuant to the refinancing arrangement, the Company pledged $13,304,049 of equipment, $4,084,530 of land use rights and $3,230,030 of buildings as security for its comprehensive credit facility with the Bank of China; pledged $1,744,719 of land use rights and $7,569,492 of buildings as security for its comprehensive credit facility with Shanghai Pudong Development Bank; pledged notes receivable at equivalent amount to credit line as security for its revolving comprehensive credit facility with Jingzhou Commercial Bank; pledged $1,570,079 of land use rights and $1,060,719 of buildings as security for its comprehensive credit facility with Industrial and Commercial Bank of China; pledged $10,379,887 of land use rights and $4,540,978 of buildings as security for its comprehensive credit facility with China Construction Bank; Wuhu, one of the Company’s Joint-venture companies, entered into a comprehensive credit facility of $2,915,834 with Bank of Communication Co., Ltd., which was secured by Jiulong, the other Joint-venture company of the Company.

(b) Financing from investors:

On February 15, 2008, the Company sold $30,000,000 and $5,000,000 convertible notes to Lehman Brothers Commercial Corporation Asia Limited, and YA Global Investments, L.P., respectively, with a scheduled maturity date of February 15, 2013 and an initial conversion price for conversion into the Company’s common stock of $8.8527 per share.

If the Company fails to obtain the same or similar terms for any debt or equity refinancing to meet its debt obligations, or if the Company fails to obtain extensions of the maturity dates of these obligations as they become due, its overall liquidity and capital resources will be adversely affected.

If the aforementioned convertible debt must be repaid in cash at or before scheduled maturity, and if at that time the Company cannot issue new notes or stock to refinance, or acquire enough bank loans, or cannot extend the maturity dates of such notes, the Company’s liquidity and capital resources will be adversely affected.

The Company must use the loan for the purposes described in the table. If it fails, the banks will no longer issue the notes payable, and it may have an adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity and capital resources. The Company has to deposit sufficient cash in the designated account of the bank on the due date of notes payable for payment to the suppliers. If the bank has advanced payment to the Company, it will be charged a penalty interest at 150% of the specified loan rate. Management believes that the Company had complied with such financial covenants as of June 30, 2008, and will continue to comply with them.

The Company had approximately $6,757,716 of capital commitments as of June 30, 2008, arising from equipment purchases for expanding production capacity. The Company intends to disperse $5,335,005 in the remaining six months of 2008 using its working capital. Management believes that it will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity.

Cash flows:

(a) Operating activities

Net cash generated from operations during the six months ended June 30, 2008 was $2,753,149, compared with net cash $5,123,407 generated from the same period of 2007, a decrease of $2,370,258.

Similar to the same period of 2007, the increased cash outflows from operating activities were primarily due to increases in accounts and notes receivable and inventories.

First, cash outflow increased by about $10,800,000 owing to increased accounts receivable, mainly due to increased sales in 2008 over 2007. The credit terms on sale of goods between customers and the Company generally range from 3 - 4 months, which resulted in increased accounts receivable as sales increased. This is a normal capital circulation and the Company believes that it will not have a material adverse effect on future cash flows. Second, cash outflow increased by about $5,400,000 owing to increased notes receivable, mainly due to the Company having sufficient working capital, thus having less notes receivable discounted during this period. Since the notes receivable were based on bank credit standing, they may turn into cash any time the Company elects. Therefore, the increase of notes receivable will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s future operating activities. Third, increased inventories led to an increased cash outflow of about $4,700,000, mainly due to the Company’s intention to produce sufficient inventories to meet increasing demands in the third quarter of 2008.

(b) Investing activities

The Company expended net cash of $17,987,138 in investment activities during the six months ended June 30, 2008, and $5,981,259 during the same period of 2007.

Compared with the same period of 2007, cash used in the six months ended June 30, 2008 on investment activities increased $12,005,879, or 200.7%, mainly as a result of the acquisition of the additional 35.5% of Henglong’s equity.

- 48 -

During the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company obtained net cash of $22,655,046 in financing activities, as compared to expending net cash of $7,388,393 through financing activities for the same period of 2007, an increase of $30,043,439 as a result of the following factors:

During the six months ended June 30, 2008, the Company sold $30,000,000 and $5,000,000 of convertible notes to Lehman Brothers Commercial Corporation Asia Limited, and YA Global Investments, L.P., respectively. During the same period in 2007, the Company issued 108,121 shares of common stock and raised $1,145,500.

ITEM 1A.

RISK FACTORS

Any investment in our securities involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risks described below, together with the information contained elsewhere in this prospectus, before you make a decision to invest in our company. Our business, financial conditions and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected by many risk factors. Because of these risk factors, actual results might differ significantly from those projected in any forward-looking statements. Factors that might cause such differences include, among others, the following:

Risks Related to the Company’s Business and Industry

Because we are a holding company with substantially all of our operations conducted through our subsidiaries, our performance will be affected by the performance of our subsidiaries.

We have no operations independent of those of Great Genesis and its subsidiaries, and our principal assets are our investments in Great Genesis and its subsidiaries. As a result, we are dependent upon the performance of Great Genesis and its subsidiaries and will be subject to the financial, business and other factors affecting Great Genesis as well as general economic and financial conditions. As substantially all of our operations are and will be conducted through our subsidiaries, we will be dependent on the cash flow of our subsidiaries to meet our obligations.

Because virtually all of our assets are and will be held by operating subsidiaries, the claims of our stockholders will be subordinate to all existing and future liabilities and obligations, and trade payables of such subsidiaries. In the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization, our assets and those of our subsidiaries will be available to satisfy the claims of our stockholders only after all of our and our subsidiaries’ liabilities and obligations have been paid in full.

The Senior Convertible Notes are our unsecured obligations, but are not obligations of our subsidiaries. In addition, our secured commercial debt is senior to the Senior Convertible Notes.

With the automobile parts markets being highly competitive and many of our competitors having greater resources than we do, we may not be able to compete successfully.

The automobile parts industry is a highly competitive business. Criteria for the Company’s customers include:

• Quality;

• Price/cost competitiveness;

• System and product performance;

• Reliability and timeliness of delivery;

• New product and technology development capability;

• Excellence and flexibility in operations;

• Degree of global and local presence;

- 51 -

• Effectiveness of customer service; and

• Overall management capability.

Our competitors include independent suppliers of parts, as well as suppliers formed by spin-offs from our customers, who are becoming more aggressive in selling parts to other vehicle manufacturers. Depending on the particular product, the number of our competitors varies significantly. Many of our competitors have substantially greater revenues and financial resources than we do, as well as stronger brand names, consumer recognition, business relationships with vehicle manufacturers, and geographic presence than we have. We may not be able to compete favorably and increased competition may substantially harm our business, business prospects and results of operations.

Internationally, we face different market dynamics and competition. We may not be as successful as our competitors in generating revenues in international markets due to the lack of recognition of our products or other factors. Developing product recognition overseas is expensive and time-consuming and our international expansion efforts may be more costly and less profitable than we expect. If we are not successful in our target markets, our sales could decline, our margins could be negatively impacted and we could lose market share, any of which could materially harm our business, results of operations and profitability.

The cyclical nature of automotive production and sales could result in a reduction in automotive sales, which could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Our business relies on automotive vehicle production and sales by our customers, which are highly cyclical and depend on general economic conditions and other factors, including consumer spending and preferences and the price and availability of gasoline. They also can be affected by labor relations issues, regulatory requirements, and other factors. In addition, in the last two years, the price of automobiles in China has generally declined. As a result, the volume of automotive production in China has fluctuated from year to year, which gives rise to fluctuations in the demand for our products. Any significant economic decline that results in a reduction in automotive production and sales by our customers would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. Moreover, if the prices of automobiles do not remain low, then demand for automobile parts could fall and result in lower revenues and profitability.

Increasing costs for manufactured components and raw materials may adversely affect our profitability.

We use a broad range of manufactured components and raw materials in our products, including castings, electronic components, finished sub-components, molded plastic parts, fabricated metal, aluminum and steel, and resins. Because it may be difficult to pass increased prices for these items on to our customers, a significant increase in the prices of our components and materials could materially increase our operating costs and adversely affect our profit margins and profitability.

Pricing pressure by automobile manufacturers on their suppliers may adversely affect our business and results of operations.

Recently, pricing pressure from automobile manufacturers has been prevalent in the automotive parts industry in China. Virtually all vehicle manufacturers seek price reductions each year, including requiring suppliers to pay a “3-R Guarantees” service charge for repair, replacement and refund in an amount equal to one percent of the total amount of parts supplied. Although we have tried to reduce costs and resist price reductions, these reductions have impacted our sales and profit margins. If we cannot offset continued price reductions through improved operating efficiencies and reduced expenditures, price reductions will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.

- 52 -

Our business, revenues and profitability would be materially and adversely affected if we lose any of our large customers.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2008, approximately 14.7% of our sales were to Chery Automobile Co., Ltd, approximately 10.6% were to Brilliance China Automotive Holdings Limited, approximately 12.5% were to Beiqi Foton Motor Co., Ltd, and approximately 10.6% were to Zhejiang Geely Holding Co., Ltd, our four largest customers. The loss of, or significant reduction in purchases by, one or more of these major customers could adversely affect our business.

We may be subject to product liability and warranty and recall claims, which may increase the costs of doing business and adversely affect our financial condition and liquidity.

We may be exposed to product liability and warranty claims if our products actually or allegedly fail to perform as expected or the use of our products results, or is alleged to result, in bodily injury and/or property damage. We started to pay some of our customers’ increased after-sales service expenses due to consumer rights protection policies of “recall” issued by the Chinese Government in 2004, such as the recalling flawed vehicles policy. Beginning in 2004, automobile manufacturers unilaterally required their suppliers to pay a “3-R Guarantees” service charge for repair, replacement and refund in an amount equal to one percent of the total amount of parts supplied. Accordingly, we have experienced and will continue to experience higher after sales service expenses. Product liability, warranty and recall costs may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.

We are subject to environmental and safety regulations, which may increase our compliance costs and may adversely affect our results of operation.

We are subject to the requirements of environmental and occupational safety and health laws and regulations in China. We cannot provide assurance that we have been or will be at all times in full compliance with all of these requirements, or that we will not incur material costs or liabilities in connection with these requirements. Additionally, these regulations may change in a manner that could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. The capital requirements and other expenditures that may be necessary to comply with environmental requirements could increase and become a material expense of doing business.

Non-performance by our suppliers may adversely affect our operations by delaying delivery or causing delivery failures, which may negatively affect demand, sales and profitability.

We purchase various types of equipment, raw materials and manufactured component parts from our suppliers. We would be materially and adversely affected by the failure of our suppliers to perform as expected. We could experience delivery delays or failures caused by production issues or delivery of non-conforming products if our suppliers failed to perform, and we also face these risks in the event any of our suppliers becomes insolvent or bankrupt.

Our business and growth may suffer if we fail to attract and retain key personnel.

Our ability to operate our business and implement our strategies effectively depends on the efforts of our executive officers and other key employees. We depend on the continued contributions of our senior management and other key personnel. Our future success also depends on our ability to identify, attract and retain highly skilled technical staff, particularly engineers and other employees with electronics expertise, and managerial, finance and marketing personnel. We do not maintain a key person life insurance policy on Mr. Hanlin Chen or Mr. Qizhou Wu. The loss of the services of any of our key employees or the failure to attract or retain other qualified personnel could substantially harm our business.

- 53 -

Our management controls approximately 82.3% of our outstanding common stock and may have conflicts of interest with our minority stockholders.

Members of our management beneficially own approximately 82.3% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. As a result, these majority stockholders have control over decisions to enter into any corporate transaction and have the ability to prevent any transaction that requires the approval of stockholders, which could result in the approval of transactions that might not maximize stockholders’ value. Additionally, these stockholders control the election of members of our board, have the ability to appoint new members to our management team and control the outcome of matters submitted to a vote of the holders of our common stock. The interests of these majority stockholders may at times conflict with the interests of our other stockholders. The Henglong Acquisition is a transaction involving us and a counterparty controlled by Mr. Hanlin Chen, our Chairman and controlling stockholder. We regularly engage in transactions with entities controlled by one of more of our officers and directors.

Covenants contained in the Securities Purchase Agreement and the Senior Convertible Notes may restrict our operating flexibility.

There is a limited public float of our common stock, which can result in our stock price being volatile and prevent the realization of a profit on resale of our common stock or derivative securities.

There is a limited public float of our common stock. Of our outstanding common stock, approximately 17.7% is considered part of the public float. The term “public float” refers to shares freely and actively tradable on the NASDAQ GlobalMarket and not owned by officers, directors or affiliates, as such term is defined under the Securities Act. As a result of the limited public float and the limited trading volume on some days, the market price of our common stock can be volatile, and relatively small changes in the demand for or supply of our common stock can have a disproportionate effect on the market price for our common stock. This stock price volatility could prevent a securityholder seeking to sell our common stock or derivative securities from being able to sell them at or above the price at which the stock or derivative securities were bought, or at a price which a fully liquid market would report.

Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws and the General Corporation Law of Delaware may discourage a takeover attempt.

Provisions in our certificate of incorporation and bylaws and the General Corporation Law of Delaware, the state in which we are organized, could make it difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so might be beneficial to our stockholders. Provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws impose various procedural and other requirements, which could make it difficult for stockholders to effect certain corporate actions and possibly prevent transactions that would maximize stockholders’ value.

We do not pay cash dividends on our common stock.

We have never paid common stock cash dividends and do not anticipate doing so in the foreseeable future. In addition, the Securities Purchase Agreement prohibits us from paying cash dividends on common stock without the approval of the holders of the Senior Convertible Notes.

Risks Related to Doing Business in China and Other Countries Besides the United States

Because our operations are all located outside of the United States and are subject to Chinese laws, any change of Chinese laws may adversely affect our business.

All of our operations are outside the United States and in China, which exposes us to risks, such as exchange controls and currency restrictions, currency fluctuations and devaluations, changes in local economic conditions, changes in Chinese laws and regulations, exposure to possible expropriation or other Chinese government actions, and unsettled political conditions. These factors may have a material adverse effect on our operations or on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Our international expansion plans subject us to risks inherent in doing business internationally.

Our long-term business strategy relies on the expansion of our international sales outside China by targeting markets, such as the United States. Risks affecting our international expansion include challenges caused by distance, language and cultural differences, conflicting and changing laws and regulations, foreign laws, international import and export legislation, trading and investment policies, foreign currency fluctuations, the burdens of complying with a wide variety of laws and regulations, protectionist laws and business practices that favor local businesses in some countries, foreign tax consequences, higher costs associated with doing business internationally, restrictions on the export or import of technology, difficulties in staffing and managing international operations, trade and tariff restrictions, and variations in tariffs, quotas, taxes and other market barriers. These risks could harm our international expansion efforts, which could in turn materially and adversely affect our business, operating results and financial condition.

We face risks associated with currency exchange rate fluctuations; any adverse fluctuation may adversely affect our operating margins.

Although we are incorporated in the United States (Delaware), the majority of our current revenues are in Chinese currency. Conducting business in currencies other than US dollars subjects us to fluctuations in currency exchange rates that could have a negative impact on our reported operating results. Fluctuations in the value of the US dollar relative to other currencies impact our revenues, cost of revenues and operating margins and result in foreign currency translation gains and losses. Historically, we have not engaged in exchange rate hedging activities. Although we may implement hedging strategies to mitigate this risk, these strategies may not eliminate our exposure to foreign exchange rate fluctuations and involve costs and risks of their own, such as ongoing management time and expertise requirements, external costs to implement the strategy and potential accounting implications.

If relations between the United States and China worsen, our stock price may decrease and we may have difficulty accessing the U.S. capital markets.

At various times during recent years, the United States and China have had disagreements over political and economic issues. Controversies may arise in the future between these two countries. Any political or trade controversies between the United States and China could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and our ability to access US capital markets.

The Chinese Government could change its policies toward private enterprise, which could adversely affect our business.

Our business is subject to political and economic uncertainties in China and may be adversely affected by China’s political, economic and social developments. Over the past several years, the Chinese Government has pursued economic reform policies including the encouragement of private economic activity and greater economic decentralization. The Chinese Government may not continue to pursue these policies or may alter them to our detriment from time to time. Changes in policies, laws and regulations, or in their interpretation or the imposition of confiscatory taxation, restrictions on currency conversion, restrictions or prohibitions on dividend payments to stockholders, devaluations of currency or the nationalization or other expropriation of private enterprises could have a material adverse effect on our business. Nationalization or expropriation could result in the total loss of our investment in China.

The economic, political and social conditions in China could affect our business.

All of our business, assets and operations are located in China. The economy of China differs from the economies of most developed countries in many respects, including government involvement, level of development, growth rate, control of foreign exchange, and allocation of resources. The economy of China has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy. Although the Chinese Government has implemented measures recently emphasizing the utilization of market forces for economic reform, the reduction of state ownership of productive assets and the establishment of sound corporate governance in business enterprises, a substantial portion of productive assets in China is still owned by the Chinese Government. In addition, the Chinese Government continues to play a significant role in regulating industry by imposing industrial policies. It also exercises significant control over China’s economic growth through the allocation of resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies. Therefore, the Chinese Government’s involvement in the economy could adversely affect our business operations, results of operations and/or financial condition.

The Chinese Government’s macroeconomic policies could have a negative effect on our business and results of operations

The Chinese Government has implemented various measures from time to time to control the rate of economic growth. Some of these measures benefit the overall economy of China, but may have a negative effect on us.

Government control of currency conversion and future movements in exchange rates may adversely affect our operations and financial results.

We receive substantially all of our revenues in Renminbi, the currency of China. A portion of such revenues will be converted into other currencies to meet our foreign currency obligations. Foreign exchange transactions under our capital account, including principal payments in respect of foreign currency-denominated obligations, continue to be subject to significant foreign exchange controls and require the approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange in China. These limitations could affect our ability to obtain foreign exchange through debt or equity financing, or to obtain foreign exchange for capital expenditures.

The Chinese Government controls its foreign currency reserves through restrictions on imports and conversion of Renminbi into foreign currency. Although the exchange rate of the Renminbi to the US dollar has been stable since January 1, 1994, and the Chinese Government has stated its intention to maintain the stability of the value of Renminbi, there can be no assurance that exchange rates will remain stable. The Renminbi could devalue against the US dollar. Our financial condition and results of operations may also be affected by changes in the value of certain currencies other than the Renminbi in which our earnings and obligations are denominated. In particular, a devaluation of the Renminbi is likely to increase the portion of our cash flow required to satisfy our foreign currency-denominated obligations.

Because the Chinese legal system is not fully developed, our and the securityholders’ legal protections may be limited.

The Chinese legal system is based on written statutes and their interpretation by the Supreme People’s Court. Although the Chinese government introduced new laws and regulations to modernize its business, securities and tax systems on January 1, 1994, China does not yet possess a comprehensive body of business law. Because Chinese laws and regulations are relatively new, interpretation, implementation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve uncertainties and inconsistencies and it may be difficult to enforce contracts. In addition, as the Chinese legal system develops, changes in such laws and regulations, their interpretation or their enforcement may have a material adverse effect on our business operations. Moreover, interpretative case law does not have the same precedential value in China as in the United States, so legal compliance in China may be more difficult or expensive.

It may be difficult to serve us with legal process or enforce judgments against our management or us.

All of our assets are located in China and three of our directors and officers are non-residents of the United States, and all or substantial portions of the assets of such non-residents are located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible to effect service of process within the United States upon such persons to originate an action in the United States. Moreover, there is uncertainty that the courts of China would enforce judgments of U.S. courts against us, our directors or officers based on the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any state, or an original action brought in China based upon the securities laws of the United States or any state.
