Our Current Business
Our operations are divided into three main categories. First is the “Know How” video sharing platform, which combines artificial intelligence (“AI”), short videos, social interaction, and education. Second is the production of Internet videos in China, for distribution in China, and on-line and off-line seminars conducted by Steve Chen. Specifically, we seek to produce commentary videos that will fit in internet mobile applications. In addition, we seek to sell distribution rights for these videos, and to develop and sell promotional and other products related to these videos throughout the world. Third, our we are continuously seeking to make additional investments in other ventures that focus on AI and big-data. Big-data refers to the accumulation and analysis of large amounts of data.
Currently, our management is seeking and evaluating opportunities for our company to produce an internet video or participate in the production of an internet video as a financial partner, development partner, or production partner. In that regard we are seeking and evaluating video concepts, screenplays, financing opportunities, branding opportunities, and prospective creative and financial partners. We anticipate an operational budget of between $300,000 to $1,000,000 depending on the nature of our involvement, production costs, and available funding.
Competition
The video production industry in China is intensely competitive. We compete with numerous individuals and companies of varying size, including many major production companies and multi-media conglomerates, all of which have substantially greater creative, technical, financial and operational resources and staffs than we have. Accordingly, we face a high degree of competition for access to skilled personnel, distribution channels, financing and market share.
Compliance with Government Regulation
Regulation Affecting the Production of Videos in China
The principal regulation governing foreign ownership of our business in the PRC is the Foreign Investment Industrial Guidance Catalogue, effective as of April 10, 2015 (the “Catalogue”). Investment activities in the PRC by foreign investors are principally governed by the Catalogue, which was promulgated and is amended from time to time by the Ministry of Commerce and the National Development and Reform Commission (“NDRC”). The Catalogue divides industries into three categories: encouraged, restricted and prohibited. Industries not listed in the Catalogue are generally deemed as constituting a fourth “permitted” category and open to foreign investment unless specifically restricted by other PRC regulations. Currently, the production of “broadcasting and TV programs and video-making” falls into the restricted category, and is limited to contractual joint ventures. Accordingly, we are required to enter into a joint-venture with a Chinese partner in order to produce video and video content in China.
Regulations Affecting Distribution of Digital Media Content in China
Restrictions on the Publication of Content on Servers located in China.
In February, 2016, China’s State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television (SARFT) and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT), announced new regulations which serve to aggregate several existing policies to ease the enforcement of rules governing online publishing. Entitled, Administrative Regulations for Online Publishing Services (“Online Publishing Regulations”), the regulations prohibit companies with foreign ownership of any kind, including foreign joint ventures, from engaging in online publishing from servers located in China, though they allow foreign-invested firms to cooperate with Chinese companies on individual projects, as long as they obtain prior permission from authorities. The rules took effect on March 10, 2016 and require all involved in online publishing to receive a permit to do so.
Publication of Content on Servers Located Outside of China
The Online Publishing Regulations apply broadly to any “online publishing services provided within the borders of the PRC.” (Art. 2.) This presumably continues the approach to jurisdictional nexus of existing internet regulation in China: if active content resides on or is provided through servers located within the PRC, the jurisdictional nexus is satisfied and the law applies. If the provider maintains its servers outside of China, the law does not apply. However, as a practical matter, SAPPRFT and MIIT oversee online content published into China from offshore and may use other means to interrupt what they deem as unsuitable content., as Chinese authorities frequently impose censorship policies through the use of firewalls by degrading or interrupting access to content served from offshore servers into China.

Censorship of Content in China
China has no motion picture rating system, and videos must therefore be deemed suitable by Chinese censors for all audiences in order to be shown in the country. Officially, the censorship system is designed to promote Confucian morality, political stability and social harmony. Videos must be submitted to the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television (SARFT) for censorship prior to being cleared for import into China. This entails a three-step process:
| 1. | The videomakers submit their screenplay or finished video to the Censorship Board for review. The board has 30 days to offer a response, but often takes longer to do so; |
| 2. | SARFT then offers comments, and often suggestions, for altering the video to meet censorship requirements. The videomakers are given the opportunity to make modifications to comply with any requested changes; |
| 3. | The script or video is re-submitted to SARFT for review of the changes and an approval decision. |
If the videomakers object to the results of the review process, they can apply for an additional review within 30 days;
| · | Videos are prohibited from containing the following contents, as stipulated in Article 25 of the Film Regulations: |
| o | Opposing the fundamental principles laid down in the Constitution of the P.R.C.; |
| o | Jeopardizing the unification, sovereignty and territorial integrity of the State; |
| o | Divulging State secrets, jeopardizing the security of the State, or impairing the prestige and interests of the State; |
| o | Inciting hatred and discrimination among ethnic groups, harming their unity, or violating their customs and habits; |
| o | Propagating cults and superstition; |
| o | Disrupting public order and undermining social stability; |
| o | Propagating obscenity, gambling or violence, or abetting to commit crimes; |
| o | Insulting or slandering others, or infringing upon the legitimate rights and interests of others; |
| o | Jeopardizing social ethics or fine national cultural traditions. |
Research and Development
We did not incur any research or development expenditures over the last two fiscal years.
Intellectual Property
We do not currently have any intellectual property or licenses thereof.
Employees
We have 1 full-time employees and 2 part-time employees.
Real Property
Our executive, administrative and operating offices are located at 215 North Jefferson St. Ossian, Indiana 46777. We pay $300 per month for shared use of the space. The lease is currently on a month to month basis. We believe that our facilities are adequate for our needs and that additional suitable space will be available on acceptable terms as required.
RISKS RELATED TO OUR BUSINESS
We have a history of losses and limited revenues, which raises substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
Prior to 2018, we have never operated at a profit. For the year ended December 31, 2018 we have incurred aggregate post-tax net income of $645,178. We can offer no assurance that we will continue to operate profitably or that we will generate positive cash flow in the future. In addition, our operating results in the future may be subject to significant fluctuations due to many factors not within our control, such as the unpredictability of when we will successfully begin or complete production of any videos, the demand for our productions, and the level of competition and general economic conditions.
5 |
Table of Contents |
Our company’s operations will be subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a developing enterprise and the uncertainties arising from the absence of a significant operating history. No assurance can be given that we may be able to operate on a profitable basis.
Due to the nature of our business and the early stage of our development, any profitability in the future from our business will be dependent upon the successful commercialization or licensing of our planned video(s) and AI ventures, which are subject to numerous risk factors as set forth below.
We expect to continue to incur development costs and operating costs. Consequently, we expect to incur operating losses and negative cash flows until we successfully produce and sell or license one or more videos. Our history of losses and limited revenues raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.
We have had negative cash flows from operations since inception. We will require significant additional financing, the availability of which cannot be assured, and if we are unable to obtain such financing, our business may fail.
Until recently, we had negative cash flows from operations and have depended on sales of our equity securities and debt financing to meet our cash requirements. We may continue to have negative cash flows. We have estimated that we will require approximately $1,075,000 to carry out our business plan for the next twelve months. There is no assurance that actual cash requirements will not exceed our estimates. We will require additional financing to finance working capital and pay for operating expenses and capital requirements until we achieve a positive cash flow.
Our ability to produce and market internet videos will be dependent upon our ability to raise significant additional financing. If we are unable to obtain such financing, we will not be able to fully develop our business. Specifically, we will need to raise additional funds to:
| · | support our planned growth and carry out our business plan; |
| · | hire top quality personnel for all areas of our business; and |
| · | address competing technological and market developments. |
We may not be able to obtain additional equity or debt financing on acceptable terms as required. Even if financing is available, it may not be available on terms that are favorable to us or in sufficient amounts to satisfy our requirements. Any additional equity financing may involve substantial dilution to our then existing shareholders. If we require, but are unable to obtain, additional financing in the future, we may be unable to implement our business plan and our growth strategies, respond to changing business or economic conditions, withstand adverse operating results and compete effectively. More importantly, if we are unable to raise further financing when required, we may be forced to scale down our operations and our ability to generate revenues may be negatively affected.
We have a limited operating history and if we are not successful in continuing to grow our business, then we may have to scale back or even cease our ongoing business operations.
Prior to 2018, we had no history of revenues from operations and had no significant tangible assets. This is the first year that has generated positive earnings, and there is no guarantee that profitability will continue. Accordingly, we must be considered in the development stage. Our success is significantly dependent on a successful production and commercialization of internet videos. Our operations will be subject to all the risks inherent in the establishment of a developing enterprise and the uncertainties arising from the absence of a significant operating history. We may be unable to produce, or to successfully market and commercialize, an internet video, or operate on a profitable basis. We are in the development stage and potential investors should be aware of the difficulties normally encountered by enterprises in the development stage. If our business plan is not successful, and we are not able to operate profitably, investors may lose some or all of their investment in our company.
If we fail to effectively manage the growth of our company and the development of our internet video production business, our future business results could be harmed, and our managerial and operational resources may be strained.
As we proceed with the development of our internet video production business, we expect to experience significant growth in the scope and complexity of our business. We will need to add staff to develop, produce, and market our productions, manage operations, and perform finance and accounting functions. We anticipate that we will be required to hire a broad range of additional personnel in order to successfully advance our operations. This growth is likely to place a strain on our management and operational resources. The failure to develop and implement effective systems, or to hire and retain sufficient personnel for the performance of all of the functions necessary to effectively service and manage our potential business, or the failure to manage growth effectively, could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.

Because we face intense competition from larger and better-established companies that have more resources than we do, we may be unable to implement our business plan or increase our revenues.
The market for internet video production and distribution is intensely competitive and highly fragmented. Many of these competitors may have longer operating histories, greater financial, technical and marketing resources, and enjoy existing name recognition and customer bases. New competitors may emerge and rapidly acquire significant market share. In addition, new distribution services and technologies likely will increase the competitive pressures we face. Competitors may be able to respond more quickly to technological change, competitive pressures, or changes in consumer demand. As a result of their advantages, our competitors may be able to limit or curtail our ability to compete successfully.
In addition, many of our large competitors may offer customers a broader or superior range of entertainment content. Some of our competitors may conduct more extensive promotional activities and offer better production value to customers than we do, which could allow them to gain greater market share or prevent us from establishing and increasing our market share. Increased competition may result in significant price competition, reduced profit margins or loss of market share, any of which may have a material adverse effect on our ability to generate revenues and successfully operate our business. Such competition will potentially affect our chances of achieving consistent profitability, and ultimately affect our ability to continue as a going concern.
Our by-laws contain provisions indemnifying our officers and directors against all costs, charges and expenses incurred by them.
Our by-laws contain provisions with respect to the indemnification of our officers and directors against all expenses, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by him or her in connection with any action, suit or proceeding to which they were made parties by reason of his or her being or having been one of our directors or officers. In the event that any of our officers or directors incurs any expenses, liability or loss resulting from any such action, suit or proceeding, we will be responsible for such expenses, liabilities, or losses, which could have a material adverse effect on our business and financial condition.
The success of our business depends upon the continuing contribution of our key personnel.
We are substantially dependent on the services of Steve Andrew Chen, our Chairman of the Board of Directors and Mr. Chris Hong, our Chief Executive Officer and other members of our senior management team. The knowledge of Mr. Chen of our business would be difficult to replace in the event we should lose his services. There can be no assurance that Mr. Chen will continue in his present capacity for any particular period of time. Other than non-compete provisions of limited duration included in employment agreements that we may or will have with certain individuals, we do not generally seek non-compete agreements with key personnel, and they may leave and subsequently compete against us. The loss of service of any of our senior management team, particularly those who are not party to employment agreements with us, or our failure to attract and retain other qualified and experienced personnel on acceptable terms, could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our officers and directors may be subject to conflicts of interest.
Our officers and directors provide their services on a non-exclusive, part-time basis, and may therefore become subject to conflicts of interest resulting from their other activities. Mr. Chen, for example, devotes part of his working time to other business endeavors, which include serving as Chairman of our sister company, Success Holding Group International, Inc., which is also engaged in the internet video production business. Potential conflicts which may arise from these relationships include conflicts in deciding how much time to devote to our affairs, as well as what business opportunities should be presented to us. Currently, we have no policy in place to address such conflicts of interest. As a result, our business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
RISKS RELATED TO ONLINE VIDEO INDUSTRY
Our future growth depends on the increased acceptance of the Internet as an effective viewing platform for videos and the increased Internet penetration among the general population in China.
We expect to generate a significant portion of our revenues from providing Internet videos to consumers. Internet videos are growing at significant rates in China, particularly among more educated Chinese users. Based on statistics, the Tencent Company in Shenzhen China, the Company that created the internet communication and social media tool known as “WeChat,” has surpassed Facebook in its user base and revenue. However, with stronger competition every day, the video content must have a unique quality so as to attract a wider array of users to pay and watch those videos, which is a hurdle the Company must overcome.
7 |
Table of Contents |
Failure to enhance our brand recognition could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and growth prospects.
We believe the importance of brand recognition for our Internet videos will increase as the number of Internet users in China grows. If we fail to effectively develop and enhance our brand recognition, we may not be able to attract new consumers to for video viewing. Furthermore, if our Internet videos are to be successful, we need to attract viewers on a regular basis by providing Internet videos and other relevant information. If we fail to attract enough viewers, we may not be able to generate sufficient revenues, which could materially and adversely affect our financial position and results of operations. While we plan to continue to enhance our brand recognition for our Internet videos, we may not always be able to achieve its expected results or do so in a short period of time. If this happens, our business prospects, financial condition and results of operations may be materially adversely affected.
We will rely on China’s general population for a substantial portion of our revenues and future growth, but the Internet video industry is at an early stage of development and subject to many uncertainties.
We will rely on China’s general population for a substantial portion of the revenues that we expect to generate from providing Internet videos. We believe that we will greatly benefit from the rapid growth of China’s Internet usage during the past few years. However, China’s Internet video services are still at an early stage of development and remain subject to many uncertainties. We cannot predict how this industry will develop in the future. Although demand for broadband access is increasing, network and bandwidth growth may be limited by several factors, including an uncertain regulatory environment, high infrastructure costs to purchase and install equipment, and uncertainty as to which competing content delivery solution, such as telecommunications, wireless, or satellite, will gain the most widespread acceptance. Further, the growth of China’s Internet video industry could be affected by many factors, including:
| · | general economic conditions in China and around the world; and |
| · | the growth of disposable household income available to for Internet videos. |
Any adverse change to these factors could reduce demand for Internet videos. Demand for our Internet video products and services may be particularly sensitive to changes in general economic conditions. If China’s economy stagnates or contracts, our business, financial condition and results of operations would be materially and adversely affected.
Any financial or economic crisis, or perceived threat of such a crisis, including a significant decrease in consumer confidence, may materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
The Company’s operations and performance depend significantly on global and regional economic conditions. Uncertainty about global and regional economic conditions poses a risk as consumers and businesses may postpone spending in response to tighter credit, higher unemployment, financial market volatility, government austerity programs, negative financial news, declines in income or asset values and/or other factors. These worldwide and regional economic conditions could have a material adverse effect on demand for the Company’s products and services. Demand also could differ materially from the Company’s expectations as a result of currency fluctuations because the Company generally raises prices on goods and services sold outside the U.S. to correspond with the effect of a strengthening of the U.S. dollar. Other factors that could influence worldwide or regional demand include changes in fuel and other energy costs, conditions in the real estate and mortgage markets, unemployment, labor and healthcare costs, access to credit, consumer confidence and other macroeconomic factors affecting consumer spending behavior. These and other economic factors could materially adversely affect demand for the Company’s products and services.
In the event of financial turmoil affecting the banking system and financial markets, there could be a number of effects on the Company’s business. Increased volatility in the financial markets and overall economic uncertainty would increase the risk of the actual amounts realized in the future on the Company’s financial instruments differing significantly from the fair values currently assigned to them.
Problems with China’s Internet infrastructure or with our third-party data center hosting facilities could impair the delivery of our services and harm our business.
Our Internet video business will heavily depend on the performance and reliability of China’s Internet infrastructure, the continual accessibility of bandwidth and servers to service providers’ networks, and the continuing performance, reliability and availability of technology platforms. We will rely on major Chinese telecommunication companies to provide us with bandwidth for our Internet video services, and we may not have any access to comparable alternative networks or services in the event of disruptions, failures or other problems. Content distribution networks, located in several regions throughout China, may also be shut down or otherwise experience interruptions in a particular region. Internet access may not be available in certain areas due to natural disasters, such as earthquakes or local government decisions. If we experience technical problems in delivering Internet videos either at national or regional level, we could experience reduced demand for our Internet videos, lower revenues and increased costs.
Copyright infringement and other intellectual property claims against us may adversely affect our business.
We could be subject to claims based upon the content that is contained in our Internet videos. Any lawsuits or threatened lawsuits, in which we are potentially involved, either as a plaintiff or as a defendant, could cost us a significant amount of time and money and distract management’s attention from operating its business. Any judgments against us in such suits, or related settlements, could harm its reputation and have a material adverse effect on its results of operations. If a lawsuit against us is successful, we may be required to pay damages. As a result, the scope of our Internet videos we will offer to viewers could be reduced, which may adversely affect our ability to attract and retain viewers.

RISKS RELATING TO THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF CHINA
Certain political and economic considerations relating to China could adversely affect our Company.
The PRC is transitioning from a planned economy to a market economy. While the PRC government has pursued economic reforms since its adoption of the open-door policy in 1978, a large portion of the PRC economy is still operating under five-year plans and annual state plans. Through these plans and other economic measures, such as control on foreign exchange, taxation and restrictions on foreign participation in the domestic market of various industries, the PRC government exerts considerable direct and indirect influence on the economy. Many of the economic reforms carried out by the PRC government are unprecedented or experimental and are expected to be refined and improved.
Other political, economic and social factors can also lead to further readjustment of such reforms. This refining and readjustment process may not necessarily have a positive effect on our operations or future business development. Our operating results may be adversely affected by changes in the PRC’s economic and social conditions as well as by changes in the policies of the PRC government, such as changes in laws and regulations (or the official interpretation thereof), measures which may be introduced to control inflation, changes in the interest rate or method of taxation, and the imposition of additional restrictions on currency conversion.
Changes in U.S. and international trade policies, particularly with regard to China, may materially and adversely impact our
business and operating results.
The U.S. government has recently made statements and taken certain actions that have led and may lead to further changes to U.S. and international trade policies, including recently-imposed tariffs affecting certain products manufactured in China. Since the beginning of 2018, there has been increasing rhetoric, in some cases coupled with legislative or executive action, from several U.S. and foreign leaders regarding the possibility of instituting tariffs on the foreign imports of certain materials. Three rounds of U.S. tariffs on imports from China have become effective in July 2018, August 2018 and September 2018 (respectively the “U.S. Tariffs on China Imports”).
It is unknown whether and to what extent new tariffs (or other new laws or regulations) will be adopted, or the effect that any such actions would have on us or our industry. If any new tariffs, legislation and/or regulations are implemented, or if existing trade agreements are renegotiated or if China or other affected countries take further retaliatory trade actions, such changes could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. The imposition of duties, tariffs, border adjustment taxes, or other trade restrictions by the United States could also result in the adoption of new or increased tariffs or other trade restrictions by other countries. The U.S. administration and China have imposed significant tariffs on goods imported from the other’s country and have threatened the imposition of additional tariffs in retaliation.
Furthermore, the implementation of trade tariffs both globally and between the U.S. and China specifically carries the risk of negatively impacting China’s overall economic condition, which could have negative repercussions on us. Imposition of tariffs could cause a decrease in the sales of our products to customers located in China or other customers selling to Chinese end users, which would directly impact our business.
Significant changes to existing international trade agreements could also lead to sourcing or logistics disruption resulting from import delays or the imposition of increased tariffs on our sourcing partners. For example, the Chinese government could, among other things, require the use of local suppliers, compel companies that do business in China to partner with local companies to conduct business and provide incentives to government-backed local customers to buy from local suppliers. Changes in, and responses to, U.S. trade policy could reduce the competitiveness of our products and cause our sales and revenues to drop, which could materially and adversely impact our business and results of operations.
Our business operations conducted in China and Taiwan are important to our success. A substantial portion of our assets are located in China and Taiwan. We expect to make further investments in China and Taiwan in the future. Therefore, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects are subject to economic, political, legal, and social events and developments in China and Taiwan. Factors affecting military, political or economic conditions in China and Taiwan could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations, as well as the market price and the liquidity of our common shares.

The Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business activities which could adversely affect our company.
China only recently has permitted provincial and local economic autonomy and private economic activities. The Chinese government has exercised and continues to exercise substantial control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and State ownership. Our ability to operate in China may be harmed by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, import and export tariffs, environmental regulations, land use rights, property and other matters. We believe that our operations in China are in material compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. However, the central or local governments of these jurisdictions may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations.
The Chinese legal system has inherent uncertainties that could limit the legal protections available to us and our shareholders.
Our contractual arrangements in China are governed by the laws of the PRC. China’s legal system is based upon written statutes. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference but are not binding on subsequent cases and have limited value as precedents. Since 1979, the Chinese legislative bodies have promulgated laws and regulations dealing with economic matters such as foreign investment, corporate organization and governance, commerce, taxation and trade. However, because these laws and regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited volume of published decisions and their non-binding nature, the interpretation and enforcement of these laws and regulations involve uncertainties, and therefore the Company and its shareholders may not have legal protections for certain matters in China.
PRC laws and regulations governing our businesses and the validity of certain of our contractual arrangements are uncertain. If we are found to be in violation, we could be subject to sanctions. In addition, changes in such PRC laws and regulations may materially and adversely affect our business.
There are substantial uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of the current or future PRC laws and regulations, including regulations governing the validity and enforcement of such contractual arrangements. The PRC government has broad discretion in dealing with violations of laws and regulations, including levying fines, revoking business and other licenses, proscribing remittance of profits offshore and requiring actions necessary for compliance. In particular, licenses and permits issued or granted to us by relevant governmental bodies may be revoked at a later time by higher regulatory bodies. We cannot predict the effect of the interpretation of existing or new PRC laws or regulations on our businesses. We cannot assure you that our current ownership and operating structure would not be found to be in violation of any current or future PRC laws or regulations. As a result, we may be subject to sanctions, including fines, and could be required to restructure our operations or cease to provide certain services. Any of these or similar actions could significantly disrupt our business operations or restrict us from conducting a substantial portion of our business operations, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.
If the PRC government finds that the agreements that establish the structure for operating our businesses in China do not comply with applicable PRC governmental restrictions on foreign investment in Internet content or if these regulations or the interpretation of existing regulations change in the future, we could be subject to penalties or be forced to relinquish its interests in those operations.
PRC law currently limits foreign ownership of companies that produce video or video productions, or which provide general Internet content services, in China up to 50%. Foreign and wholly foreign-owned enterprises are currently restricted from producing video or video productions, or from providing other Internet information services. As such, we must conduct our business through contractual arrangements with entities which are domiciled and controlled in China. Each of the entities will be owned by individual shareholders who are PRC citizens and hold the requisite licenses or permits to produce video or video, or to provide Internet content services in China. We expect to depend on structured entities to operate our businesses. There are uncertainties regarding the interpretation and application of current and future PRC laws, rules and regulations, including but not limited to the laws, rules and regulations governing the validity and enforcement of our contractual arrangements with structured entities. We have been advised that each of such contractual agreements for operating its business in China (including its corporate structure and contractual arrangements with the structured entities), need to comply with all applicable existing PRC laws, rules and regulations, and not violate, breach, contravene or otherwise conflict with any applicable PRC laws, rules or regulations. However, we cannot assure that the PRC regulatory authorities will not adopt any new regulation to restrict or prohibit foreign investment in Internet business through contractual arrangement in the future or will not determine that our corporate structure and potential contractual arrangements violate PRC laws, rules or regulations.
We may have exposure to greater than anticipated tax liabilities.
We will be subject to enterprise income tax, business tax or value-added tax, and other taxes in each province and city in China where we have operations. Our tax structure is subject to review by various local tax authorities. The determination of its provision for income tax and other tax liabilities requires significant judgment. In the ordinary course of its business, there are many transactions and calculations where the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. Although we believe our estimates are reasonable, the ultimate decisions by the relevant tax authorities may differ from the amounts recorded in its financial statements and may materially affect its financial results in the period or periods for which such determination is made.

Future inflation in China may inhibit our ability to conduct business in China.
In recent years, the Chinese economy has experienced periods of rapid expansion and high rates of inflation. During the past twenty years, the rate of inflation in China has been as high as 24.1% in 1994 and as low as -1.4% in 1999 (according to National Bureau of Statistics of China). These factors have led to the adoption by the Chinese government, from time to time, of various corrective measures designed to restrict the availability of credit or regulate growth and contain inflation. While inflation has been more moderate since 1995, high inflation may in the future cause the Chinese government to impose controls on credit and/or prices, or to take other action, which could inhibit economic activity in China and thereby harm our business operations.
Currency conversion and exchange rate volatility could adversely affect our financial condition.
The PRC government imposes control over the conversion of RMB into foreign currencies. Under the current unified floating exchange rate system, the People’s Bank of China (“PBOC”) publishes an exchange rate, which we refer to as the PBOC exchange rate, based on the previous day’s dealings in the inter-bank foreign exchange market. Financial institutions authorized to deal in foreign currency may enter into foreign exchange transactions at exchange rates within an authorized range above or below the PBOC exchange rate according to market conditions.
Pursuant to the Foreign Exchange Control Regulations of the PRC issued by the State Council which came into effect on April 1, 1996, and the Regulations on the Administration of Foreign Exchange Settlement, Sale and Payment of the PRC which came into effect on July 1, 1996, regarding foreign exchange control, conversion of RMB into foreign exchange by Foreign Investment Enterprises (“FIEs”), for use on current account items, including the distribution of dividends and profits to foreign investors, is permissible. FIEs are permitted to convert their after-tax dividends and profits to foreign exchange and remit such foreign exchange to their foreign exchange bank accounts in the PRC. Conversion of RMB into foreign currencies for capital account items, including direct investment, loans, and security investment, is still under certain restrictions. On January 14, 1997, the State Council amended the Foreign Exchange Control Regulations and added, among other things, an important provision, which provides that the PRC government shall not impose restrictions on recurring international payments and transfers under current account items.
Enterprises in the PRC (including FIEs) which require foreign exchange for transactions relating to current account items, may, without approval of the State Administration of Foreign Exchange, or SAFE, effect payment from their foreign exchange account or convert and pay at the designated foreign exchange banks by providing valid receipts and proofs.
Convertibility of foreign exchange in respect of capital account items, such as direct investment and capital contribution, is still subject to certain restrictions, and prior approval from the SAFE or its relevant branches must be sought.
Since 1994, the exchange rate for RMB against the United States dollars has remained relatively stable, most of the time in the region of approximately RMB 8.28 to US$1.00. However, in 2005, the Chinese government announced that would begin pegging the exchange rate of the Chinese RMB against a number of currencies, rather than just the U.S. Dollar. As our operations are primarily in China, any significant revaluation of the RMB may materially and adversely affect our cash flows, revenues and financial condition. For example, to the extent that we need to convert United States dollars into RMB for our operations, appreciation of this currency against the United States dollar could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Conversely, if we decide to convert RMB into United States dollars for other business purposes and the United States dollar appreciates against this currency, the United States dollar equivalent of the RMB we convert would be reduced.
The RMB is not a freely convertible currency, which could limit our ability to obtain sufficient foreign currency to support our business operations in the future.
We receive all of our revenues in PRC in RMB. The PRC government imposes controls on the convertibility of RMB into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of the PRC. Shortages in the availability of foreign currency may restrict our ability to remit sufficient foreign currency to pay dividends, or otherwise satisfy foreign currency denominated obligations. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures from the transaction, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from SAFE by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, approval from appropriate governmental authorities is required where RMB are to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of the PRC to pay capital expenses, such as the repayment of bank loans denominated in foreign currencies.
We have significant foreign currency exposure and are affected by fluctuations among the U.S. dollar, the Chinese Renminbi, or RMB, and the New Taiwan dollar, or NT dollar, because a substantial portion of our business is conducted in China and Taiwan. Our sales, raw materials, components and capital expenditures are denominated in U.S. dollars, RMB and NT dollars in varying amounts.
Foreign currency fluctuations may adversely affect our revenue and our costs and expenses, and hence our results of operations. The value of the NT dollar or the RMB against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and be affected by, among other things, changes in political and economic conditions. The RMB currency is no longer being pegged solely to the value of the U.S. dollar. In the long term, the RMB may appreciate or depreciate significantly in value against the U.S. dollar, depending upon the fluctuation of the basket of currencies against which it is currently valued, or it may be permitted to enter into a full float, which may also result in a significant appreciation or depreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar. In addition, our currency exchange variations may be magnified by Chinese exchange control regulations that restrict our ability to convert RMB into foreign currency.
The PRC government could restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us from obtaining sufficient foreign currency to satisfy our currency demands, we may not be able to pay certain expenses as they come due.

We may experience difficulties in effecting service of legal process, enforcing foreign judgments or bringing original actions in China based on United States or other foreign laws against us.
We conduct our operations in China and some of our assets are located in China. In addition, some of our directors and executive officers reside within China. As a result, it may not be possible to effect service of process within the United States or elsewhere outside China upon such directors or executive officers, including with respect to matters arising under U.S. federal securities laws or applicable state securities laws. Moreover, our Chinese counsel has advised us that China does not have treaties with the U.S. and many other countries that provide for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgment of courts. As a result, recognition and enforcement in China of judgments of a court of the U.S. or any other jurisdiction in relation to any matter may be difficult or impossible.
We are subject to the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.
We are required to comply with the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which generally prohibits United States companies from engaging in bribery or other prohibited payments to foreign officials for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business. In addition, we are required to maintain records that accurately and fairly represent our transactions and have an adequate system of internal accounting controls. Foreign companies, including some that may compete with us, are not subject to these prohibitions, and therefore may have a competitive advantage over us. Corruption, extortion, bribery, pay-offs, theft and other fraudulent practices occur from time-to-time in the PRC, particularly in our industry since it deals with contracts from the Chinese Government, and our executive officers and employees have not been subject to the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act prior to the completion of the Share Exchange. If our competitors engage in these practices, they may receive preferential treatment from personnel of some companies, giving our competitors an advantage in securing business or from government officials who might give them priority in obtaining new licenses, which would put us at a disadvantage. We can make no assurance that our employees or other agents will not engage in such conduct for which we might be held responsible. If our employees or other agents are found to have engaged in such practices, we could suffer severe penalties and other consequences that may have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
RISKS RELATED TO OWNERSHIP OF OUR COMMON STOCK
A decline in the price of our common stock could affect our ability to raise further working capital, it may adversely impact our ability to continue operations and we may go out of business.
A prolonged decline in the price of our common stock could result in a reduction in the liquidity of our common stock and a reduction in our ability to raise capital. Because we may attempt to acquire a significant portion of the funds, we need in order to conduct our planned operations through the sale of equity securities, a decline in the price of our common stock could be detrimental to our liquidity and our operations because the decline may cause investors to not choose to invest in our stock. If we are unable to raise the funds we require for all of our planned operations, we may be forced to reallocate funds from other planned uses and may suffer a significant negative effect on our business plan and operations, including our ability to develop new products and continue our current operations. As a result, our business may suffer and not be successful and we may go out of business. We also might not be able to meet our financial obligations if we cannot raise enough funds through the sale of our common stock and we may be forced to go out of business.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Markets quotation system which may have an unfavorable impact on our stock price and liquidity.
Our common stock is quoted on the OTC Markets electronic quotation system, which is a significantly more limited trading market than the NYSE MKT or The NASDAQ Stock Market. The quotation of our shares on the OTC Markets may result in a less liquid market available for existing and potential stockholders to trade shares of our common stock, could depress the trading price of our common stock and could have a long-term adverse impact on our ability to raise capital in the future.
There is limited liquidity on the OTC Markets quotation system which may result in stock price volatility and inaccurate quote information.
When fewer shares of a security are being traded on the OTC Markets, volatility of prices may increase, and price movement may outpace the ability to deliver accurate quote information. Due to lower trading volumes in shares of our common stock, there may be a lower likelihood of one’s orders for shares of our common stock being executed, and current prices may differ significantly from the price one was quoted at the time of one’s order entry.

Our common stock is extremely thinly traded, so you may be unable to sell at or near asking prices or at all if you need to sell your shares to raise money or otherwise desire to liquidate your shares.
Currently, our common stock is quoted in the OTC Markets electronic quotation system and future trading volume may be limited by the fact that many major institutional investment funds, including mutual funds, as well as individual investors follow a policy of not investing in OTC Markets stocks and certain major brokerage firms restrict their brokers from recommending OTC Markets stocks because they are considered speculative, volatile and thinly traded. The OTC market is an inter-dealer market much less regulated than the major exchanges and our common stock is subject to abuses, volatility and shorting. Thus, there is currently no broadly followed and established trading market for our common stock. An established trading market may never develop or be maintained. Active trading markets generally result in lower price volatility and more efficient execution of buy and sell orders. Absence of an active trading market reduces the liquidity of the shares traded there.
Our common stock is subject to price volatility unrelated to our operations.
The trading volume of our common stock has been and may continue to be extremely limited and sporadic. As a result of such trading activity, the quoted price for our common stock on the OTC Markets may not necessarily be a reliable indicator of its fair market value. Further, if we cease to be quoted, holders would find it more difficult to dispose of our common stock or to obtain accurate quotations as to the market value of our common stock and as a result, the market value of our common stock likely would decline.
We expect the market price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, including market perception of our ability to achieve our planned growth, quarterly operating results of other companies in the same industry, trading volume in our common stock, changes in general conditions in the economy and the financial markets or other developments affecting our competitors or ourselves. In addition, the OTC Markets is subject to extreme price and volume fluctuations in general. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market price of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance and could have the same effect on our common stock.
We are subject to penny stock regulations and restrictions and you may have difficulty selling shares of our common stock.
We are subject to the provisions of Section 15(g) and Rule 15g-9 of the Exchange Act, commonly referred to as the “penny stock rule.” Section 15(g) sets forth certain requirements for transactions in penny stock, and Rule 15g-9(d) incorporates the definition of “penny stock” that is found in Rule 3a51-1 of the Exchange Act. The SEC generally defines a penny stock to be any equity security that has a market price less than $5.00 per share, subject to certain exceptions. We will be subject to the SEC’s penny stock rules.
Since our common stock may be deemed to be penny stock, trading in the shares of our common stock is subject to additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers who sell penny stock to persons other than established customers and accredited investors. “Accredited investors” are persons with assets in excess of $1,000,000 (excluding the value of such person’s primary residence) or annual income exceeding $200,000 or $300,000 together with their spouse. For transactions covered by these rules, broker-dealers must make a special suitability determination for the purchase of such security and must have the purchaser’s written consent to the transaction prior to the purchase. Additionally, for any transaction involving a penny stock, unless exempt the rules require the delivery, prior to the first transaction of a risk disclosure document, prepared by the SEC, relating to the penny stock market. A broker-dealer also must disclose the commissions payable to both the broker-dealer and the registered representative and current quotations for the securities. Finally, monthly statements must be sent disclosing recent price information for the penny stocks held in an account and information to the limited market in penny stocks. Consequently, these rules may restrict the ability of broker-dealer to trade and/or maintain a market in our common stock and may affect the ability of the Company’s stockholders to sell their shares of common stock.
There can be no assurance that our shares of common stock will qualify for exemption from the Penny Stock Rule. In any event, even if our common stock was exempt from the Penny Stock Rule, we would remain subject to Section 15(b)(6) of the Exchange Act, which gives the SEC the authority to restrict any person from participating in a distribution of penny stock if the SEC finds that such a restriction would be in the public interest.
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, or FINRA, has adopted sales practice requirements which may also limit a stockholder's ability to buy and sell our stock.
In addition to the "penny stock" rules described above, FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer's financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may limit your ability to buy and sell our stock and have an adverse effect on the market for our shares.

Because we do not intend to pay dividends, stockholders will benefit from an investment in our common stock only if it appreciates in value.
We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on common stock. For the foreseeable future, it is expected that earnings, if any, generated from our operations will be used to finance the growth of our business, and that no dividends will be paid to holders of our common stock. As a result, the success of an investment in our common stock will depend upon any future appreciation in its value. There is no guarantee that our common stock will appreciate in value.
Certain provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws and Nevada law make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us and make a takeover more difficult to complete, even if such a transaction were in the stockholders’ interest.
Our Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws and certain provisions of Nevada State law could have the effect of making it more difficult or more expensive for a third party to acquire, or from discouraging a third party from attempting to acquire, control of the Company, even when these attempts may be in the best interests of our stockholders. These provisions may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in our control.
Our Directors and Executive Officers, Collectively, Own Approximately 67% Of Our Outstanding Common Stock And May Be Able To Control Our Management And Affairs.
As of December 31, 2018, our executive officers and directors beneficially owned an aggregate of approximately 66.81% of our outstanding common stock. As a result, our directors and executive officers, acting together, may be able to control our management and affairs, including the election of directors and approval of significant corporate transactions, such as mergers, consolidation, and sale of all or substantially all of our assets. Consequently, this concentration of ownership may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control, including a merger, consolidation or other business combination involving us, even if such a change of control would benefit our stockholders. It could also deprive our shareholders of an opportunity to receive a premium for their shares as part of a sale of our company and it may affect the market price of our common stock. In deciding how to vote on such matters, those shareholders’ interests may conflict with yours. Compliance with the reporting requirements of federal securities laws can be expensive.
We are subject to the information and reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and other federal securities laws, and the compliance obligations of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The costs of preparing and filing annual and quarterly reports and other information with the SEC and furnishing audited reports to stockholders are substantial. In addition, we will incur substantial expenses in connection with the preparation of registration statements and related documents with respect to the registration of resale of the Common Stock.
Applicable regulatory requirements, including those contained in and issued under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, may make it difficult for us to retain or attract qualified officers and directors, which could adversely affect the management of our business and its ability to obtain or retain listing of our Common Stock.
We may be unable to attract and retain those qualified officers, directors and members of board committees required to provide for effective management because of the rules and regulations that govern publicly held companies, including, but not limited to, certifications required by principal executive officers. The enactment of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act has resulted in the issuance of a series of related rules and regulations and the strengthening of existing rules and regulations by the SEC, as well as the adoption of new and more stringent rules by the stock exchanges. The perceived increased personal risk associated with these changes may deter qualified individuals from accepting roles as directors and executive officers.
Further, some of these changes heighten the requirements for board or committee membership, particularly with respect to an individual’s independence from the corporation and level of experience in finance and accounting matters. We may have difficulty attracting and retaining directors with the requisite qualifications. If we are unable to attract and retain qualified officers and directors, the management of our business and our ability to obtain or retain listing of our shares of Common Stock on any stock exchange (assuming we elect to seek and are successful in obtaining such listing) could be adversely affected.
If we fail to maintain an effective system of internal controls, we may not be able to accurately report our financial results or detect fraud. Investors could lose confidence in our financial reporting and this may decrease the trading price of our Common Stock.
We must maintain effective internal controls to provide reliable financial reports and detect fraud. We have been assessing our internal controls to identify areas that need improvement. Failure to maintain an effective system of internal controls could harm our operating results and cause investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information. Any such loss of confidence would have a negative effect on the trading price of our Common Stock.

Revenues
In the year ended December 31, 2017, the company recorded $313,000 in revenues. In the year ended December 31, 2018, the company recorded $1,677,975 in revenues. The drastic increase is due to higher frequency of seminars in China.
Cost of Revenues
In the year ended December 31, 2017, the company recorded $60,000 in cost of revenues. In the year ended December 31, 2018, the company recorded $218,000. The nature of the Company’s new acquisitions, as well as costs associated with more frequent seminars, resulted in higher costs to acquire those revenues.
Operating Expenses and Net Income

As at December 31, 2017, we had a working capital of $542,121 compared with a working capital deficit of $103,597 as at December 31, 2017. The increase in our working capital was due to our increase in total cash and in accounts receivable.
Cash flow from Operating Activities
During the year ended December 31, 2018, we received $456,374 of cash from operating activities compared to the use of $104,920 of cash for operating activities during the year ended December 31, 2017. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was mainly due to increase in net income, accounts payable and other payables.
Cash flow from Financing Activities
During the year ended December 31, 2017, we received $9,656 of cash from financing activities compared to $159,202 for the year ended December 31, 2017. The decrease in cash provided by financing activities was due to fewer proceeds from issuance of notes payables and stock in 2018.
Cash Requirements
Over the next 12 months we intend to carry on business as an Internet portal and next generation social media website. We anticipate that we will incur significant expenses in operating the business over the next 12 months but cannot estimate accurately at this time the total expenses.
In the event that we are unable to raise sufficient funds to implement our growth strategy, we intend to scale back our business plan commensurate with the financing available to us. In that regard, we estimate that we will require approximately $300,000 to maintain our basic business operations, which includes fulfilling our public reporting obligations, and continuing to seek opportunities to produce or to participate in the production of an internet application. Further, we estimate that development and production costs for an internet application could vary, depending on the complexity of the project undertaken, the marquee value of key talent, the user population of the app, and the cost of the chosen location. We intend to tailor our production values to the budget available to us.
The funds we will require may be raised through equity financing, debt financing, or other sources, which may result in further dilution in the equity ownership of our shares. There is no assurance that we will be able to maintain operations at a level sufficient for an investor to obtain a return on their investment in our common stock.
Future Financings
We will continue to rely on equity sales of our common shares in order to continue to fund our business operations. Issuances of additional shares will result in dilution to existing stockholders. There is no assurance that we will achieve any additional sales of the equity securities or arrange for debt or other financing to fund our operations and other activities.
Purchase of Significant Equipment
We do not anticipate the purchase or sale of any plant or significant equipment during the next 12 months.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We have no off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to stockholders.
Critical Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars.
Use of Estimates
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 and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all liquid investments with the original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had $520,772 and $54,742 of cash as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
The Company’s bank accounts are with insured institutions. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company’s bank deposits did not exceed the insured amounts.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances.
Management provides for probable uncollected amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to an allowance for bad debts based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts. Balances that are still outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the allowance for bad debts and a credit to accounts receivable.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.
These tiers include:
Level 1: defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2: defined as input other than quoted market prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, and reasonably available. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company.
Level 3: defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, a related party loan and note payable related party. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due their short-term maturity.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. The 2018 Fiscal Year was the first to have in large enough operations that an income tax was levied against the Company. Income tax payables in the year ended December 31, 2018 were $121,609
Revenue Recognition
The Company will recognize revenue in accordance with ASC. 605, “Revenue Recognition”. ASC-605 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company will defer any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.
The major revenue streams of the Company are a series of human spirit stimulation training seminars. Training seminars have its agenda and speaking topics and other decoration details defined within the contract. The Company recognizes revenue when services have been provided, and collection is reasonably assured.
Advertising Costs
The Company policy regarding advertising is to expense advertising when incurred. The Company incurred advertising expense of $0 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.

Stock-Based Compensation

As at December 31, 2018, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options.
Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) per Share
Per Share Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding is the basic weighted number of shares adjusted for any potentially dilutive debt or equity. The basic and diluted loss per share for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017 as follows:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Success Entertainment Group International, Inc.
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Success Entertainment Group International, Inc. as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the related statement of operations and comprehensive income (loss), stockholders' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2018, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Success Entertainment Group International, Inc. as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, and the results of operations and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2018, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.
Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

NOTE 2 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFCANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America and are presented in US dollars.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and all its majority-owned subsidiaries which require consolidation. Inter-company transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassification
Certain amounts in the prior period financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on reported losses.
Translation Adjustment
For the year ended December 31, 2018, the accounts of the Success Win (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. were maintained, and its financial statements were expressed, in RMB. Such financial statements were translated into USD in accordance with the Foreign Currency Matters Topic of the Codification (ASC 830), with the RMB as the functional currency. According to the Codification, all assets and liabilities were translated at the current exchange rate at respective balance sheets dates, members’ capital are translated at the historical rates and income statement items are translated at the average exchange rate for the period. The resulting translation adjustments are reported under other comprehensive income in accordance with the Comprehensive Income Topic of the Codification (ASC 220), as a component of members’ capital. Transaction gains and losses are reflected in the income statement.
Comprehensive Income
The Company uses SFAS 130 “Reporting Comprehensive Income” (ASC Topic 220). Comprehensive income is comprised of net income and all changes to the statements of members’ capital, except those due to investments by members, changes in paid-in capital and distributions to members. Comprehensive income for the year ended December 31, 2018 is included net income and foreign currency translation adjustments.
Use of Estimates
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 and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date the financial statements and the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with the original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents. The Company had $520,772 and $54,742 of cash as of December 31, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
The Company’s bank accounts are deposited in insured institutions. At December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company’s bank deposits did not exceed the insured amounts.
Accounts Receivable
Accounts receivable are stated at the amount management expects to collect from outstanding balances.
Management provides for probable uncollected amounts through a charge to earnings and a credit to an allowance for bad debts based on its assessment of the current status of individual accounts. Balances that are still outstanding after management has used reasonable collection efforts are written off through a charge to the allowance for bad debts and a credit to accounts receivable.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures" establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs in measuring fair value. The hierarchy prioritizes the inputs into three levels based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market.
27 |
Table of Contents |
These tiers include:
Level 1: defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;
Level 2: defined as input other than quoted market prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly, and reasonably available. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability and are developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Company.
Level 3: defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash, a related party loan and note payable related party. The carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value due their short term maturity.
Income Taxes
Income taxes are computed using the asset and liability method. Under the asset and liability method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based on the differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the currently enacted tax rates and laws. A valuation allowance is provided for the amount of deferred tax assets that, based on available evidence, are not expected to be realized.
Revenue Recognition
The Company will recognize revenue in accordance with ASC. 605, “Revenue Recognition”. ASC-605 requires that four basic criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized: (1) persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists; (2) delivery has occurred; (3) the selling price is fixed and determinable; and (4) collectability is reasonably assured. Determination of criteria (3) and (4) are based on management's judgments regarding the fixed nature of the selling prices of the products delivered and the collectability of those amounts. Provisions for discounts and rebates to customers, estimated returns and allowances, and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. The Company will defer any revenue for which the product has not been delivered or is subject to refund until such time that the Company and the customer jointly determine that the product has been delivered or no refund will be required.
The major revenue streams of the Company are a series of human spirit stimulation training seminars. Training seminars have its agenda and speaking topics and other decoration details defined within the contract. The Company recognizes revenue when services have been provided, and collection is reasonably assured.
Advertising Costs
The Company policy regarding advertising is to expense advertising when incurred. The Company incurred advertising expense of $0 for the years ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.
Stock-Based Compensation
Stock-based compensation is accounted for at fair value in accordance with ASC Topic 718.
As of December 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company has not adopted a stock option plan and has not granted any stock options.
Basic and Diluted Income (Loss) per Share
Per Share Basic income (loss) per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net loss applicable to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the Company’s net income available to common shareholders by the diluted weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. Diluted earnings per share are the same as basic earnings per share due to the lack of dilutive items in the Company.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements With Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure
There were no disagreements related to accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, internal controls or auditing scope or procedure during the two fiscal years and interim periods.
Item 9A. Controls and Procedures
Management’s Report on Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in our reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 , as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our president and chief executive officer (our principal executive officer) and our chief financial officer (our principal financial officer and principle accounting officer) to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
As of December 31, 2018, the end of our fiscal year covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our president and chief executive officer (our principal executive officer) and our chief financial officer (our principal financial officer and principle accounting officer), of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. Based on the foregoing, our president (our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and principle accounting officer) concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of the end of the period covered by this annual report due to the material weakness in our control environment and financial reporting process consisting of the following:
| 1) | lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of a majority of independent members and a lack of a majority of outside directors on our Board of Directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal control and procedures; |
|
|
|
| 2) | inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; |
|
|
|
| 3) | ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes; and |
|
|
|
| 4) | lack of accounting personnel with adequate experience and training. |

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting responsibility, estimates and judgments by management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of control procedures. The objectives of internal control include providing management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition, and that transactions are executed in accordance with management’s authorization and recorded properly to permit the preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. Our management assessed the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2015. In making this assessment, our management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”) in Internal Control-Integrated Framework. Our management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2015, our internal control over financial reporting is not effective. Our management reviewed the results of their assessment with our board of directors due to the material weakness in our control environment and financial reporting process consisting of the following:
| 1) | lack of a functioning audit committee due to a lack of independent members and a lack of outside directors on our Board of Directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal control and procedures; |
|
|
|
| 2) | inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; |
|
|
|
| 3) | ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes; and |
|
|
|
| 4) | lack of accounting personnel with adequate experience and training. |
This annual report does not include an attestation report of our company’s registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by our company’s registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the SEC that permit our company to provide only management’s report in this annual report.
Inherent Limitations on Effectiveness of Controls
Internal control over financial reporting has inherent limitations which include but is not limited to the use of independent professionals for advice and guidance, interpretation of existing and/or changing rules and principles, segregation of management duties, scale of organization, and personnel factors. Internal control over financial reporting is a process which involves human diligence and compliance and is subject to lapses in judgment and breakdowns resulting from human failures. Internal control over financial reporting also can be circumvented by collusion or improper management override. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements on a timely basis, however these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process and it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the year ended December 31, 2018, that have materially or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
None.

Compliance with Section 16(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
Our common stock is not registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Accordingly, our officers, directors, and principal stockholders are not subject to the beneficial ownership reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act.
Code of Ethics
We have not yet adopted a code of ethics that applies to our sole officer and director, or persons performing similar functions because we are in the start-up phase and are in the process of establishing our operations. We plan to adopt a code of ethics as and when our company grows to a sufficient size to warrant such adoption.
Board and Committee Meetings
Our board of directors held no formal meetings during the year ended December 31, 2018. All proceedings of the board of directors were conducted by resolutions consented to in writing by all the directors and filed with the minutes of the proceedings of the directors. Such resolutions consented to in writing by the directors entitled to vote on that resolution at a meeting of the directors are, according to the Delaware Corporation Law and our Bylaws, as valid and effective as if they had been passed at a meeting of the directors duly called and held.
Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight
Mr. Steve Andrew Chen serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors and Our Board of Directors is primarily responsible for overseeing our risk management processes. The Board of Directors receives and reviews periodic reports from management, auditors, legal counsel, and others, as considered appropriate regarding our assessment of risks. The Board of Directors focuses on the most significant risks facing the Company and our general risk management strategy, and also ensures that risks undertaken by our Company are consistent with the board’s appetite for risk. While the Board of Directors oversees our Company’s risk management, management is responsible for day-to-day risk management processes. We believe this division of responsibilities is the most effective approach for addressing the risks facing our company and that our board leadership structure supports this approach.
Nomination Process
As of December 31, 2018, we did not affect any material changes to the procedures by which our shareholders may recommend nominees to our board of directors. Our board of directors does not have a policy with regards to the consideration of any director candidates recommended by our shareholders. Our board of directors has determined that it is in the best position to evaluate our company’s requirements as well as the qualifications of each candidate when the board considers a nominee for a position on our board of directors. If shareholders wish to recommend candidates directly to our board, they may do so by sending communications to the president of our company at the address on the cover of this annual report.
Audit Committee and Audit Committee Financial Expert
We do not currently have an audit committee or a committee performing similar functions. The board of directors as a whole participates in the review of financial statements and disclosure.
Our board of directors has determined that it does not have a member of its audit committee that qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K, and is “independent” as the term is used in Item 7(d)(3)(iv) of Schedule 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
We believe that our directors is capable of analyzing and evaluating our financial statements and understanding internal controls and procedures for financial reporting. We believe that retaining an independent director who would qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” would be overly costly and burdensome and is not warranted in our circumstances given the early stages of our development and the fact that we have not generated any material revenues to date. In addition, we currently do not have nominating, compensation or audit committees or committees performing similar functions nor do we have a written nominating, compensation or audit committee charter. Our directors do not believe that it is necessary to have such committees because believes the functions of such committees can be adequately performed by the members of our board of directors.

Certain shares may be deemed to be beneficially owned by more than one person (if, for example, persons share the power to vote or the power to dispose of the shares). In addition, shares are deemed to be beneficially owned by a person if the person has the right to acquire the shares (for example, upon exercise of an option) within 60 days of the date as of which the information is provided. In computing the percentage ownership of any person, the amount of shares outstanding is deemed to include the amount of shares beneficially owned by such person (and only such person) by reason of these acquisition rights.
