Industry Background
Increasing Demand for Classical Chinese Studies Education in the U.S.
Since initiating market reforms in 1978, China’s economy has been transitioning from a planned economy to a more market-oriented economy. The economy in China has grown significantly over the past few decades. China’s overall economy and the average wage in China have increased in recent years and are expected to grow, which inspired a growing global interest in China, and a growing demand to learn more about the Chinese culture and language. Even Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook’s CEO, offered RMB 840,000 (approximately USD 125,000) to hire a Chinese speaking nanny for his daughter. Currently, there is a demand of Chinese education, both culturally and language-wise, of about 6 million people in the U. S.
The market for classical Chinese studies education and training in the U.S. exists, but is still in an early stage of development. We estimate that this industry presents huge training needs, substantial business opportunities, and considerable profit margins. It has already attracted a large number of institutions and organizations who participate in the market and promote the development of the industry.

Data source: Zero Power Intelligence Research Institute. The data supporting the two tables appearing in the Registration Statement on pages 15 and 18 was calculated based on statistics from National Bureau of Statistics of China, or NBSC, and relevant associations. To be more specific, Zero Power use the population data of the United States in 2015 from National Bureau of Statistics (http://data.stats.gov.cn/easyquery.htm?cn=G0104) and the historical population data from 1968 to 2018 of the United States from World Bank (https://data.worldbank.org.cn/indicator/SP.POP.TOTL?locations=US). Zero Power then estimated the number of people participating in Chines education studies through its own theoretical deduction and data model based upon its industry research. Zero Power also estimated that the annual spending on the such education is approximately $1,000 per person; and The number of people participating in classical Chinese studies education in the U.S. mainly includes the number of enrollments of Confucius Institutes and classical Chinese studies education and training institutions in the U.S.
The numbers represent billions in USD.
Targeting Market for Classical Chinese Studies Education in the U.S. – The Chinese-American Demographic
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, there were 4.52 million Chinese people living in the U.S. in 2018. This makes Chinese people the largest Asia-Pacific ethnic group in the U.S., and the second largest ethnic group after the Mexicans, when considering all ethnic minorities as a whole. The US Department of Homeland Security lists Chinese immigrants as the third-largest immigrant group in the United States. There are 21 million Asia-Pacific Americans in the U.S., accounting for 6.7% of the total population. It is expected that by 2050 Asia-Pacific Americans will account for 10% of the total U.S. population.
| 5 |
Chinese people gather in certain parts of the U.S., mainly in California, New York, and other metropolitan cities. Half of all Chinese Americans live in the western part of the U.S. One fifth live in the northeast and south. In the west of the U.S. they concentrate in Seattle, Washington, Los Angeles, San Francisco, and other cities located in California; and in the south in cities located in Texas, such as Houston and Dallas. In the Northeast they concentrate in New York and Boston. New York City, with 570,000 Chinese, is a metropolis with a large Chinese population.
Most Chinese Americans are concentrated in California, with 36.9% of the total Chinese population, followed by New York, with 16.9%; New Jersey, with 4.4%; Texas, with 4.2%; and Florida, with 4.1%.
These 4.52 million Chinese-Americans, with a prior affinity to the Chinese identity and culture, will be our initial target audience. They are the driving force behind the American educational enterprises offering traditional Chinese culture immersion courses and services related to Chinese language and classical Chinese studies.
Challenges Faced by Institutions Offering Classical Chinese Studies Education in the U.S.
The classical Chinese studies education offered in the current U.S. market is in a state of chaotic development. This is mainly reflected by two key factors: (i) the design and planning of course content is disorganized; and (ii) teachers are poorly selected and trained. The combination of these two elements results in the fact that the concept of classical Chinese studies is not clearly defined.
| i. | Course setting. Due to the lack of carefully planned course and content design, there is no consensus on the subject of what constitutes classical Chinese studies in the U.S. This causes institutions and universities to develop their own policies and their own interpretation when selecting the curriculum and content for their classical Chinese studies courses. There is no unified curriculum for classical Chinese studies in the U.S. today. Each learning center and university uses the resources available to them when structuring a course, some prioritize art over history and literature, while others do the opposite. They all emphasize their perceived strong subjects or where they have more available resources.
| |
| ii. | Teacher selection. The present market lacks teachers who are specialized or have the required skills, experience, and qualifications to teach a classical Chinese studies course. Some teachers who are not qualified to teach subjects related to classical Chinese studies are somehow teaching those courses. This lack of specialization and professionalism among the teachers themselves makes delivering a real classical Chinese studies course very difficult. Students, not knowing any better, blindly obey. |
Market Opportunity Analysis of Classical Chinese Studies Education in the U.S.
Currently, there are not many education service providers who offer classical Chinese studies operating in the U.S., and long-term operating experience in this field is non-existent. This may be because most of the educational institutions operating in the market pursue revenue and tend to ignore the needs of clients. Many Internet educators focus on profitability rather than education itself, and their lack of competitive teaching methods and content renders them unable to enter into an overseas market with a full-fledged array of different education offers like they can in the U.S.
| 6 |
Service providers offering classical Chinese studies education have two major functions: To teach American students Chinese and provide services so that some of those American students can study abroad in China, and to promote the excellence of Chinese culture as a whole. Some companies use their platform to provide American students with English-language versions of classical Chinese studies courses and Chinese language learning courses. They also invite experts in Chinese language and professors, scholars, and academics of classical Chinese studies to give lectures.

COMPANY OVERVIEW
GJ Culture Group US, Inc. (“GJ Culture”) is a Nevada corporation, dedicated to providing educational and other relating services based on classical Chinese studies and culture. We aim to serve as a cultural and educational meeting point between China and the U.S. We will pursue our business purpose by providing educational training courses and lectures based on classical Chinese studies, organizing China-U.S. international study tour activities for participants of all ages, and organizing and promoting China-U.S. cultural events, art fairs, exhibitions, etc. Our executive office is located in Danville, the State of California.
We will focus on education and the cultural exchange between China and the U.S., relying on our profound knowledge in the field of Chinese classical culture and art. We intend to capitalize on the growing interest in China and on its increasing global influence by offering accurate and systematized curriculum of classical Chinese studies, and contribute to the exchange and development of cultural education and art between China and the U.S.
OUR MISSION AND VISION
Committed to quality education service based on classical Chinese studies and culture
Generally speaking, classical Chinese studies mainly refer to an academic system which utilizes the study of Chinese classics to illustrate and convey the ethos, philosophy, character, and moral and social code of the Chinese nation. Classical Chinese studies are applied to guarantee the quality of education. It contributes to the development of intelligence in children, which requires the constant acquisition of knowledge, the enhancement of language through reading and speaking, and the cultivation of memory abilities. All of these qualities can be developed through Di Zi Gui, which offers the standards for being a good pupil and child, and the San Zi Jing (Three Character Classic) used to teach children Confucian values.
Adolescents have entered the stage of understanding the world and establishing their personalities, and need to be guided in words and deeds, as in this stage they have begun to learn through imitation. Therefore, in addition to words and deeds, they need to be given the proper resources to enable them to fully digest and understand their pre-memory knowledge. Adolescents learn to develop critical thinking and perception skills through classical Chinese poetry, painting, calligraphy, chess, and the Chinese Game of Go.
Adults have the richness of life experience behind them. Their life, work, and emotional spheres are more complex, so education at this stage of life is dedicated to reflection, experience, and contemplation. Studying the rich ideological and theoretical works of the Chinese classics will help adults think and act wisely and face with ease all difficulties that may present themselves in their life.
Committed to the dissemination of ancient Chinese philosophical ideas.
The development of a country cannot be separated from the proliferation of culture, which in turn cannot be separated from the inheritance and dissemination of the cultural traditions existing in the area. In fact, Chinese culture is both ancient and complex, in and of itself is an evidence of the continuing accumulation of knowledge through civilization. Chinese classical studies contain abundant ancient Chinese philosophy. It is not only the essence of classical Chinese culture, but also an important factor to maintain the sustainable development of contemporary China. We believe that Chinese culture and Chinese classical studies contribute not only to the sustained development and expansion of the Chinese people, but to the sustained development of the world as a whole. Our long-term objective is to introduce ancient Chinese philosophical ideas into collective consciousness.

Committed to become a bond between Chinese and western cultures and art.
GJ Culture will gradually expand its international study tour services, classical Chinese studies education services, seminars, cultural events, and art fairs by integrating and managing the valuable resources we have accumulated in the field of Chinese classical studies, culture, and art. Over the years we have gained knowledge, experience, and expertise in the fields of both Chinese and western culture and art. We anticipate that this knowledge will position us not only as an education service provider, but also as a platform for the exchange of culture and art between China and the U.S. We intend to serve as a melting pot for the continuous amalgamation of Chinese and American cultures.
OUR COMPETITIVE STRENGTHS
The contents of our seminars and teaching materials will be written and composed specifically for classical Chinese educational purposes.
The contents of our classical Chinese studies education curriculum will be designed based on the traditional Chinese classics. To develop the contents and systematize our course curriculum we have incorporated both Chinese and western education models, applying a directional development approach. Our system is different from other institutions in this industry that simply read the traditional classics and design courses according to the objective needs of classes and lectures. We will adapt Chinese classical cultural principles to storytelling to meet the dynamic needs of classroom lectures and will also use pictorial impressions to help students memorize and understand complex text descriptions.
We will divide our students according to their developmental stage and design each course accordingly. This will allow us to offer the rich and diverse content of classical Chinese studies and education services effectively and systematically. We have also planned to develop special teaching programs and assessment materials for teachers and tutors of classical Chinese studies.
Sophisticated classical Chinese studies education system and one-stop training system
Our classical Chinese studies education services include curriculum education, lectures, international study tours, and cultural and art exchanges. We believe our education services cover all aspects of classical Chinese culture. We have planned to specially develop phase-linked courses and teaching methods that correspond to the different stages of classical Chinese studies. These phase-linked courses and teaching methods guarantee that students learn classical Chinese studies systematically within a structured framework of education, which in turn encourages students to further their education by taking the advanced courses. Systematic learning and the possibility to advance their education increases student engagement. The variety of services we provide, such as classes, public lectures, international study tours, cultural events and art exhibitions, will provide our students with a first-hand, hands-on integral learning experience.
| 9 |
Scientific Theoretical System of Classical Studies Education
We have combined western psychology, neuroscience and Chinese classical studies to create a scientific theory of classical Chinese studies. Using the analogy of how a tree grows, we have taken classical studies as the soil, moral behavior as the root, thoughts as the stem, and the arts as the branches, emphasizing the idea of “infiltrating the soul and enlightening wisdom.” This idea is the basis of our approach. We aim to provide a systematic classical studies education process for our students of different ages. We have developed diversified services and products horizontally, these include lectures, classroom education, international study tour services and cultural and artistic events. All of our students can participate in these activities because vertically we have adopted the concept of multi-level and phased product development, so each product created horizontally is vertically adapted to cater to different needs according to different developmental stages.
Resources for Classical Studies Education
Education is a subject that requires professionalism, and classical Chinese studies education requires professional teachers who can convey its contents through a systematized and scientific approach. GJ Culture plans to collaborate with well-known masters in the field of Chinese culture and art and plans to establish solid cooperation relationships with some institutions of classical Chinese culture and art in China.
Our team and contributors provide professional classical studies education, culture and art courses to numerous Chinese-Americans, scholars and people interested in Chinese culture in general. We plan and co-ordinate our resources, and the resources of our contributors, to offer a diverse and systematic array of services related to Chinese classical studies, to cover the demand of the American market.
OUR GROWTH STRATEGIES
GJ Culture is committed to becoming a professional service institution in the field of education, specifically in classical Chinese studies, culture, and art. Classical studies and art are at the core of our services. We will offer international study tours, classical Chinese studies seminars and lectures, and cultural and artistic events, all of which will enrich, elevate and complement each other, forming a vertically integrated offer of products and services with great potential for growth.
We aspire to become a pre-eminent education service provider for classical Chinese culture study and intend to pursue the following strategies to further grow our business:
Enhance education quality and academic results
We place great emphasis on enhancing our education quality. We offer one of the most comprehensive classical Chinese culture studies, and plan to further enhance the breadth and depth of our course offerings to enrich our students’ learning experience. We will also continue to devote resources to recruit experienced teachers, enhance ongoing teachers’ training programs through collaboration with other education institutions, and develop proprietary teaching materials.
| 10 |
Promote brand awareness
We believe that our education quality speaks volumes for our brand. Word-of-mouth referrals by former and current students and their families have been an important source of student enrollment. We will continue to drive word-of-mouth marketing by focusing on improving our education quality and students’ academic achievements while leveraging social media to improve the efficiency of our brand building and marketing initiatives.
In addition, we plan to organize more event-driven marketing campaigns to further increase our influence in the industry and among parents, such as seminars for prospective students, international education conferences and formation of strategic partnerships with international education institutions.
Expand into new markets across the U.S.
We will continue to expand our course network into other regions in the United States to capture nationwide demand for quality classical Chinese culture education. We intend to continue to replicate our success and apply our experience and know-how from the operation of our mature facilities to new facilities and promote the sharing of teaching and administrative resources within our network.
Increase utilization rate and improve operating efficiency
We seek to increase our student enrollment and program utilization rate, especially for our programs that are at the ramp-up stage, through marketing efforts and dedicated student recruiting teams. A larger student base allows more efficient utilization of our infrastructure and resources and improves our operating efficiency and profitability. We will continue to standardize operation of our programs in areas such as curriculum design, teaching resource allocation, cost control, auxiliary facilities, and service management. This will also allow for better resource sharing within our network to achieve greater economies of scale. We will also provide training to our management and administrative staff to ensure proper implementation of our standardized best practices.
Pursue strategic alliances and selective acquisition opportunities
We intend to continue to form strategic partnerships with reputable education institutions and make selective strategic alliances with and acquisitions of complementary businesses to further improve our education quality, expand our student base and network, and diversify our service offerings.
We are actively exploring potential joint venture opportunities with reputable overseas operators of classical Chinese culture institutes to further expand our program network. We seek to invest in or acquire companies that are complementary to our business, including institutions providing education and trading courses based on classical Chinese studies. We seek to increase our cooperation with organizations, especially those specializing in organizing China-U.S. international study tour activities for participants of all ages and organizing and promoting China-U.S. cultural events and art fairs and exhibitions, to further enhance and enrich our students’ learning experience and results. A minority shareholder of GJ Culture Group US, Inc. is a majority shareholder of Shaanxi Guojiang Cultural Industry Group Co., Ltd. (“Guojiang China”), an affiliated company. We may intend to combine Guojiang China and Guojiang US in the future, but there is no definitive and binding agreement entered into as of today.

CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT
Definition of Chinese Classical Studies Education
Chinese classical studies refer to the chief educational institutions established and operated by the imperial courts of ancient China, such as the imperial colleges of “Guo Zi Jian” or “Tai Xue.” In the early 20th century, the terms classical studies and Chinese classical academy became synonymous. Classical studies are a universe of content that revolve around the teachings of the Chinese classical and ancient culture. It studies and interprets Chinese classical culture and academia with Confucianism as basis. There are two levels of classical studies. In the broad sense, classical studies are what Hu Shi calls “all the past cultural history of China”, including literature, history, religion, art, mathematics, etc. In a narrow sense, classical studies refer to the classical Chinese ideology and culture. In short, classical studies education is the education of Chinese classical culture. It has two goals: (i) to enrich the training system and quality of modern education by infusing it with the excellence of ancient Chinese culture; and (ii) to absorb a deep understanding of the philosophical ideas that permeate ancient Chinese culture.
Classification of Classical Studies
One classification method of classical studies is the classification method of “Siku Quanshu,” which classifies classical studies into four sections: Jing, Shi, Zi and Ji.
“Jing” (Classics) refers to ancient books, such as the Classic of Changes, the Classic of Poetry, the Classic of Filial Piety, the Analects of Confucius, the Mencius, etc. Some works on language exegetics, such as the Erya, were included later.
“Shi” (Histories) refers to historical works, including general history, such as Sima Qian’s Records of the Grand Historian and Zheng Qiao’s Tongzhi; dynastic history in Ban Gu’s Book of Han, Chen Shou’s Records of the Three Kingdoms, and Ouyang Xiu’s New History of the Five Dynasties; political history, in the Sima Guang’s Zizhi Tongjian, and Li Tao’s Xu Zizhi Tongjian Changbian; and a detailed history of institutions and cultural relics, classics, and texts, in Du You’s Tongdian andMa Duanlin’s Wenxian Tongkao and other chronicles of the region.
“Zi” (Masters) refers to the collection of works of people who created a theory or school during the course of Chinese history, which incluedes Xunzi of Confucianism, Han Feizi and the Book of Lord Shang of Legalists, Sun Tzu of Military Strategists, Lao Tzu and Zhuangzi of Taoists, as well as books on Buddhism, the life of peasants, manuals for doctors, astronomical algorithms, mathematics, arts, genealogy, miscellaneous writers, and novelists, all of which belong to the section of Zi.
| 12 |
“Ji” (Collections) include a collection of intellectuals and scholars and individual collections in history. Collections of individuals are called “Bie Ji”, these include Li Taibai Ji, Du Gongbu Ji, Wang Jinggong Ji, etc. General collections include Zhaoming Wenxuan, Wenyuan Yinghua, Yutai Xinyong, etc. Some ancient opera works, not included in Siku, such as Changshengdian, Xixiangji and Peony Pavilion, are part of Ji.
The other method classifies classical studies according to their content attributes in three categories: the study of Neo-Confucianism, the study of textual research and the study of poetry and prose.
The purpose of the study of Neo-Confucianism is to discover the underlying truth of all things, its essence is philosophical. The study of textual research is to engage in historical research, that is, historiography. The study of poetry and prose is literature, and its purpose is to engage in the creation of practical literary styles such as poetry, prose, reports, memorials to emperors and judgments. Later, the study of country management, i.e. politics, economics, law and other social sciences for governance were included; as well as the study of science and technology, i.e. acoustics, optics, chemistry, electrics and other natural sciences.
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT OF OUR SERVICES AND PRODUCTS
The research and development our services and products mainly include: (i) project development of our international study tours; (ii) the content design of our lectures on classical Chinese studies; (iii) the curriculum development of our classical Chinese studies courses; and (iv) the organizations and promotion of cultural events and art exhibitions.
The research and development of the international study tours we will provide include the design of the tour routes, content modules, travel activities, safety plans, etc. The research and development of our classical Chinese studies lectures, and classical Chinese studies courses includes the curriculum of contents, teaching materials, audio and audio-visual resources, teaching plans and references, courseware tools, teaching methods, assessment standards, etc. The planning content of cultural events and art exhibitions mainly includes the design of themes, activity scenarios, activity flows, activity promotion schemes, etc.
The Company plans to cooperate with experts or scholars who are interested in and have a thorough study of classical Chinese culture, or form the Chinese culture or study center of major Chinese and American universities, or from some Chinese and American non-government institutions which engage in classical Chinese culture and studies, for the research and development of educational products. By combining education and research, we intend to improve the level and efficiency of our research and development process and lay a solid foundation for the sustainable development of the educational services we offer.

Lectures on Classical Studies
Classical Chinese studies involve the classical Chinese academy, which includes philosophy, Confucian classics, literature, history, politics, military science, natural science, theology, art, etc. All of these contents taken as a whole constitute the essence of classical Chinese studies. Classical studies are based on the Chinese classics of the pre-Qin Dynasty, around 2000 years ago, and on the theories of various masters. Classical Chinese studies cover a complete set of unique cultural and academic systems, such as Confucianism of the Han Dynasty, Metaphysics of the Wei and Jin Dynasties, Neo-Confucianism of the Song and Ming Dynasties, Poetry of the Han Dynasty, Parallel prose of the Six Dynasties, Poetry of the Tang and Song Dynasties, Operas of the Yuan Dynasty, novels of the Ming and Qing Dynasty, and etc. Classical Chinese studies represent the richness of Chinese culture covering thousands of years and contain the wisdom and essence of China’s 5,000-year history. Nowadays, China’s growth and development have caused a surge of interest in all things Chinese. More people are interested in studying and understanding China’s history, culture, and ethos. We will capitalize on this growing interest by offering “Lectures on Chinese Classical Studies” bringing the core values of Chinese culture to those who have an interest in learning.

Education and Training
As the name implies, classical Chinese studies are the study of Chinese history and tradition, which has been around for 5,000 years. In the wave of economic globalization, classical Chinese studies have attracted the attention of people around the world, gradually becoming a popular trend of intercultural studies. We believe there is a good business opportunity in offering classical Chinese studies courses and education. We believe its contents will help enrich people’s spiritual life. There is a global interest in learning about Chinese culture, and a growing desire to take classes on the subject. However, the institutions offering classic Chinese studies in the U.S. at the moment offer neither a systematic concept of classical studies education nor a professional approach to teaching. With this in mind, and in order to structure different programs according to the different stages of cognitive development, we have developed junior or beginner classes of classical studies for young people, a middle-level version course for classical Chinese culture enthusiasts, and premium classes for professionals and corporate executives.

Tao Te Ching is the philosophy of good people. The study of Tao Te Ching, as well as the Analects of Confucius can edify our wisdom and enhance our ability to deal with the world. Therefore, when using these classics to educate children and teenagers, teachers quote the spirit therein and can guide their behavior correctly, which is an extremely effective way to strengthen their development and training and promote the development of their personality.

OUR BRANDING AND MARKETING
We have established a clear target audience and market objectives and have structured on marketing plan and determined a detailed marketing strategy with the objective of achieving reaching our target audience.
| ● | Market Agent |
Our goal is to become the leading service provider of classical Chinese education, with emphasis in the field of art and culture. In the next five years, we will focus our business in the U.S. and China. Our chief executive office is currently located in Danville, California. From there we intend to expand our business ventures, initially within the state of California and then to the rest of America.
| ● | Product Distribution |
Our product and service distribution strategies will emphasize our achievements with respect to the professionalization and the systematization of knowledge and content of classical Chinese cultural and artistic studies. Because the content of classical Chinese education and culture are rather complex, they present multiple possibilities when combining content in the process of product development. Students of different age groups and backgrounds have different preferences. In order to satisfy the diverse demands of our customers, we intend to adjust and optimize our products and services from time to time, and to provide tailored services to meet the requirements of our customers. We will develop products and services based on Chinese education, culture, and art in accordance with the needs of our customers. We will prioritize the systematization of content, the creation of different product categories, and the professionalization of our teaching methods when designing our product and service distribution strategy.
| 24 |
| ● | Marketing Geographic Area |
We will initially operate in San Francisco Bay Area, and expand our business throughout the state of California and into the rest of America in stages as follows:
Stage 1: Central Market - San Francisco and the Bay Area
Our executive office is located in Danville, San Francisco Bay Area, California. Around 20% of the 800,000 people residing in San Francisco Bay Area are Chinese or of Chinese descent. San Francisco is one of the cities with the highest density of residents with Chinese heritage. San Francisco has a large district called “Chinatown” which has played a significant role in the political, economic, and social aspects of life in the California region. Therefore, we believe that the San Francisco Bay Area will provide us with a natural market advantage in the field of Chinese education, justifying our choice of San Francisco Bay Area as an entry point for the exploration of the U.S. market.
Stage 2: Regional Market – California
Expanding from the market in San Francisco, we will focus on the rest of the state of California. As the market area grows, team-building and marketing efforts will be strengthened. The state of California presents a strong market due to its large Sino-Asian population base. The state also has the largest number of Chinese students studying abroad in the U.S. The total number of international students in California is about 135,130, with 33.6% being Chinese.
Stage 3: Comprehensive Market - the United States
When the Company obtains strong operational capabilities and enters the stage of rapid development, it will gradually expand its target market to cover to the whole U.S. With the continuous improvement of our service capabilities and the continuous development of our business, we will strive to establish branches in key markets and metropolitan areas in the U.S.
| ● | Marketing Strategies |
In terms of marketing strategies, the company will focus on cultural activities and supplement those with advertising and promotion. Marketing will be carried out in three stages.
Stage 1: Market penetration.
To penetrate the market we will advertise in paper publications, such as local newspapers and magazines. We will strive to convey the Company’s name, products, and brand to our target audience through the media and radio. Specific concepts and images will be incorporated into these communication strategies.
In addition, promotional materials such as leaflets, posters, and gifts will be delivered on a regular basis to our target audience. Marketing personnel will distribute these materials in crowded places to achieve the desired market outreach. Additionally, we will set up fixed help desks near schools and in places where our target audience concentrates. We will seek to connect with museums and cultural venues in general to discuss mutual cooperation and brand promotion.
| 25 |
Stage 2: Media Marketing
Once we start generating profits we will consider including advertising through television, the internet, and other media. In addition to strong a media presence, we also intend to organize conferences, classical cultural exchange meetings, cultural and artistic exchanges, and three-dimensional art exhibitions, all of which will help to represent and promote our brand. With this approach to marketing we intend to establish an attractive corporate image and increase the Company’s visibility. We plan to conduct regular exchanges with local schools, offering free course trials to students to encourage them to experience classical Chinese studies. We expect to build a good reputation and corporate image through the word-of-mouth.
Stage 3: Seminar Marketing
When the company’s development becomes stable and has a certain influence in the industry, we plan to host classical Chinese culture seminars regularly, inviting Chinese scholars, Chinese cultural enthusiasts or other Chinese education institutions to send representatives to conduct classical studies exchanges. These seminars will be held on a regular basis. We intend to scale and expand these events to become the most influential Chinese school exchange event in the United States.
COMPETITION
Competition Analysis of Classical Studies Education Market in the U.S.
American colleges and universities, for the purpose of cooperation, connect Chinese and American educational enterprises. The collaboration between the two includes exchanging classrooms, language training, high-end applications for studying abroad, homework counseling and career guidance services. After cooperating, the parties mainly provide services to Chinese students studying in America. American enterprises provide various services for students interested in studying abroad through the integration of regional platforms.
On the one hand, Chinese classical studies education enterprises provide language training and preparation for the entrance exams required for foreign students interested in studying in the U.S. On the other hand, they also provide an English version of the preparation of entrance exams and an English version of classical Chinese culture courses for native American students in the U.S. In addition to basic learning courses, Chinese classical studies education enterprises have also launched internships and employment guidance courses for foreign students and pre-employment guidance services for graduates returning home.
Trend of Classical Studies Education in the U.S.
The American education industry operates in a large market. The major classical studies education enterprises in the U.S. are just recently starting to pay attention to the application of scientific and technological methods to teaching, barely grasping the industry trends and level of competition. Many major classical studies education enterprises in the U.S. prefer to develop their business through distance-learning and through cooperation with Chinese classical studies education companies, having their content developed by Chinese companies, and a sales and promotion department in America.
Analysis of Information Trend Development of Classical Studies Education
In the social media era, the dissemination of new media through computers and mobile phones has proved convenient for the development of classical Chinese studies education. Firstly, American classical studies enterprises can now set up a column for “Classical Studies” on their platforms and select several teachers with profound knowledge of classical Chinese culture to teach and manage course online. Fast, open and interactive online communication channels between teachers and students contribute to learning. Secondly, the opening of online courses is an effective way of promotion. We will engage experienced and successful online course designers to design and operate online courses related to classical studies. Thirdly, we may take advantage of the opportunity to organize online classical Chinese culture competitions for promotional purposes.

REGULATIONS
Effect of Existing or Probable U.S. Government Regulations on the Business
Generally, we intend to provide non-certified educational services without the issuance of a degree. Providers of such educational services are generally not required to be licensed under applicable state laws. For example, the New York Education Law exempts from its licensing provisions schools that provide instruction in only the following subjects: religion, dancing, 38 music, painting, drawing, sculpture, poetry, dramatic art, languages, reading comprehension, mathematics, recreation, yoga, martial arts, pilates and athletics. In California, another state we intend to provide services, the California Education Code and the California Code of Regulations, Title 5, Education apply uniquely to K-12 public schools, special education services and ancillary topics concerning the former, including teacher credentialing. We believe that the other states in which we intend to operate provide similar exemptions from licensure.
We are subject to laws, rules or regulations of general applicability, including laws respecting labor, work safety and health. To date, these laws have not had a material adverse effect on our operations. While our business operations have not been materially adversely affected by regulation, we cannot assure you that we will not be adversely affected in the future nor can we predict the effect of any future legislation or regulation.

Overview
GJ Culture Group US, Inc. (“GJ Culture” “the Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”) is an emerging company incorporated in Nevada and is qualified and authorized to transact intestate business in California. We are dedicated to providing educational services based on classical Chinese studies and culture. We aim to serve as a cultural and educational meeting point between China and the U.S. Our business is providing education and training courses based on classical Chinese studies both in Chinese and English, organizing China-U.S. international study tour activities for participants of all ages, and organizing and promoting China-U.S. cultural events, art fairs, and exhibitions and other relevant activities related to educating the public about Chinese culture.
Our executive office is located in Danville, the State of California, U.S. Additionally; we have cooperative agencies in California and China. We have established a cooperative relationship with Shaanxi Guojiang Cultural Industry Group Co. Ltd (“Guojiang China”), which is an affiliated company of GJ Culture based in Shaanxi, China and also engages in business related to Chinese classical education. We intend through our cooperative partners to enter into contracts for cooperation with experts in various fields of traditional Chinese culture and art; to offer a diverse and systematic array of services related to Chinese classical studies, that cover the demand of the American market. We will focus on education and the cultural exchange between China and the U.S. relying on our experience in the field of Chinese classical culture and art. We intend to capitalize on the growing interest in China and on its increasing global influence. We will do this by offering a curated and systematized curriculum of classical Chinese studies, and contribute to the exchange and development of cultural education and art between China and the U.S.
GJ Culture is committed to becoming a professional service institution of education, specifically in classical Chinese studies, culture and art. Classical studies and art are at the core of our services. We will offer international study tours, online and offline, in classical Chinese studies through classes, lectures, cultural, and artistic events. All of these will enrich, elevate and complement each other, forming a vertically integrated set of products and services with growth potential.
There is a growing global interest in China, and an increasing demand to learn more about the Chinese culture and language. We believe it is because the market for classical Chinese studies education and training in the U.S. exists, but it is still in an early stage of development. Based on the market search results by Zero Power Intelligence Research Institute as described in previous chapter, we estimate that this industry presents large training needs, many business opportunities and potential profit margins.
We plan to generate most of the revenue through provision of classical studies lectures, international study tour services, classical studies education and training, and organizing cultural and artistic events. All of these services will be paid for by our students or participants in advance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We plan to fund operations of the Company through the proceeds from public offerings, private placements of restricted securities, or the issuance of stock in lieu of cash for payment of services until profitable operations are achieved. If we do not raise all of the money we need from public offerings or through private placements, we will have to find alternative sources, such as loans or advances from our officers, directors or others. Such additional financing may not become available on acceptable terms and there can be no assurance that any additional financing that the Company obtains will be sufficient to meet its needs in the long term. There are no written agreements in place for such funding or issuance of securities and there can be no assurance that such will be available in the future. We believe that this plan provides an opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.
The failure to achieve the necessary levels of profitability or obtain the additional funding would be detrimental to the Company.

Financing Activities
There was no financing activity in the reporting period.
Significant Accounting Policies
Use of Estimates and Assumptions
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 of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
| 34 |
Due to the limited level of operations, the Company has not made material assumptions or estimates other than the assumption that the Company is a going concern.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
ASC 825, “Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments”, requires disclosure of fair value information about financial instruments. ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurements” defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Fair value estimates discussed herein are based upon certain market assumptions and pertinent information available to management as of December 31, 2018.
The respective carrying values of certain on-balance-sheet financial instruments approximate their fair values. These financial instruments include cash, accrued liabilities and notes payable. Fair values were assumed to approximate carrying values for these financial instruments since they are short term in nature and their carrying amounts approximate fair value.
Revenue Recognition
The Company will recognize revenue in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification No. 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers” (“ASC-606”). ASC-606 requires that the criteria must be met before revenue can be recognized:
| 1. | The parties to the contract have approved the contract (in writing, orally, or in accordance with other customary business practices) and are committed to perform their respective obligations. |
| 2. | The Company can identify each party’s rights regarding the goods or services to be transferred. |
| 3. | The Company can identify the payment terms for the goods or services to be transferred. |
| 4. | The contract has commercial substance (that is, the risk, timing, or amount of the entity’s future cash flows is expected to change as a result of the contract). |
| 5. | It is probable that the Company will collect substantially all of the consideration to which it will be entitled in exchange for the goods or services that will be transferred to the customer. In evaluating whether collectability of an amount of consideration is probable, an entity shall consider only the customer’s ability and intention to pay that amount of consideration when it is due. The amount of consideration to which the entity will be entitled may be less than the price stated in the contract if the consideration is variable because the entity may offer the customer a price concession. |
Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Share
Our computation of earnings per share (“EPS”) includes basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS is measured as the income (loss) available to common stockholders divided by the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted income (loss) per share reflects the potential dilution, using the treasury stock method, that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock or resulted in the issuance of common stock that then shared in the income (loss) of the Company as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, or issuance date, if later. In computing diluted income (loss) per share, the treasury stock method assumes that outstanding options and warrants are exercised and the proceeds are used to purchase common stock at the average market price during the period. Options and warrants may have a dilutive effect under the treasury stock method only when the average market price of the common stock during the period exceeds the exercise price of the options and warrants. Potential common shares that have an anti-dilutive effect (i.e., those that increase income per share or decrease loss per share) are excluded from the calculation of diluted EPS.
Income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the respective periods. Basic and diluted (loss) per common share is the same for periods in which the company reported an operating loss because all warrants and stock options outstanding are anti-dilutive. There were no adjustments to net loss required for purposes of computing diluted earnings per share.
Comprehensive income (loss)
The Company follows the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) ASC 220 Reporting Comprehensive Income and establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances in a full set of general purpose financial statements. The Company’s comprehensive loss consists of net loss and foreign currency translation adjustments.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-02 Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2018-02). The standard provides financial statement preparers with an option to reclassify stranded tax effects within Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCI) to retained earnings in each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (or portion thereof) is recorded. ASU 2018-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted.
In December 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-05, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (ASU 2018-05). The ASU adds various Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) paragraphs pursuant to the issuance of the December 2017 SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118, Income Tax Accounting Implications of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (“SAB 118”), which was effective immediately. The SEC issued SAB 118 to address concerns about reporting entities’ ability to timely comply with the accounting requirements to recognize all of the effects of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act in the period of enactment. SAB 118 allows disclosure that timely determination of some or all of the income tax effects from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act are incomplete by the due date of the financial statements and if possible to provide a reasonable estimate.
As of December 31, 2021, except for the above, there are no recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted that would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of GJ Culture Group US, Inc. (the Company) as of December 31, 2021, and 2020, and the related statements of operations and comprehensive loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2021, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2021 and 2020, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the years in the two-year period ended December 31, 2021, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Emphasis of Matter – Going Concern
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 1 to the financial statements, the Company has incurred substantial losses and net cash outflows from operating activities during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. The Company’s working capital has decreased significantly during those years and its accumulated deficit has grown over that same period. These circumstances raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Management’s plans to address this substantial doubt is set forth in Note 1. These financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainly.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s 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.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The Financial Statements and related disclosures have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). The Financial Statements have been prepared using the accrual basis of accounting in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and presented in US dollars.
Going Concern
The
accompanying financial statements and notes have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As of December
31, 2021, the Company had accumulated deficits of $
Management plans to fund operations of the Company through the proceeds from an offering pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-1, private placements of restricted securities, or the issuance of stock in lieu of cash for payment of services until such a time as profitable operations are achieved. If we do not raise all of the money we need from public offerings, we will have to find alternative sources, such as loans or advances from our officers, directors or others. Such additional financing may not become available on acceptable terms and there can be no assurance that any additional financing that the Company does obtain will be sufficient to meet its needs in the long term. There are no written agreements in place for such funding or issuance of securities and there can be no assurance that such will be available in the future. Management believes that this plan provides an opportunity for the Company to continue as a going concern.
The failure to achieve the necessary levels of profitability or obtain the additional funding would be detrimental to the Company.

The Company’s services entail performance obligation that are fulfilled over a period of time. The Company typically receives payment in advance of delivery services.

Comprehensive income (loss)
The Company follows the provisions of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) ASC 220 Reporting Comprehensive Income and establishes standards for the reporting and display of comprehensive income, its components and accumulated balances in a full set of general purpose financial statements. The Company’s comprehensive loss consists of net loss and foreign currency translation adjustments.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-02 Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (ASU 2018-02). The standard provides financial statement preparers with an option to reclassify stranded tax effects within Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (AOCI) to retained earnings in each period in which the effect of the change in the U.S. federal corporate income tax rate in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (or portion thereof) is recorded. ASU 2018-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted.
In December 2018, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-05, Income Taxes (Topic 740), Amendments to SEC Paragraphs Pursuant to SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (ASU 2018-05).

As of December 31, 2021, except for the above, there are no recently issued accounting standards not yet adopted that would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

3. INCOME TAX
The Company was established in the State of Nevada in United States and is subject to Nevada State and US Federal tax laws. The Company has not recognized an income tax benefit for its operating losses based on uncertainties concerning its ability to generate taxable income in future periods. The tax benefit for the periods presented is offset by a valuation allowance established against deferred tax assets arising from the net operating losses and other temporary differences, the realization of which could not be considered more likely than not. Further, the benefit from utilization of NOL (“net operating loss”) carry forwards could be subject to limitations due to material ownership changes that could occur in the Company as it continues to raise additional capital. Based on such limitations, the Company has significant NOLs for which realization of tax benefits is uncertain. In future periods, tax benefits and related deferred tax assets will be recognized when management considers realization of such amounts to be more likely than not.
As
of December 31, 2021, and 2020, the Company has accumulated net operating losses of $

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES.
In accordance with Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company’s management evaluated, with the participation of the Company’s principal executive and financial officer, the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) or Rule 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Disclosure controls and procedures are defined as those controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that the information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports it files or submits under the Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, we concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are ineffective in gathering, analyzing and disclosing information needed to satisfy the registrant’s disclosure obligations under the Exchange Act. Based upon an evaluation of the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures, our Company’s principal executive and principal financial officer has concluded that as of the end of the period covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K, our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are not effective because of the material weaknesses in our disclosure controls and procedures, which are identified below. It should be noted that the design of any system of controls is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how remote.
The material weaknesses in our disclosure control procedures are as follows:
1. Lack of resources provided to the accounting and reporting function under U.S. GAAP. The Company utilizes a third-party independent contractor for the work required for preparation of its U.S. GAAP consolidated financial statements. There are certain challenges faced in providing sufficient resources in terms of time and access to allow the contractor to properly record all of the adjustments necessary on a timely basis to conform our reporting to U.S. GAAP standards.
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting for the Company (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act). Internal control over financial reporting is to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of our financial reporting for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Internal control over financial reporting includes: maintaining records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect our transactions; providing reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary for preparation of our financial statements; providing reasonable assurance that receipts and expenditures of company assets are made in accordance with management authorization; and providing reasonable assurance that unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of Company assets that could have a material effect on our financial statements would be prevented or detected.
| 38 |
As of December 31, 2021 , management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on the criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting established in SEC guidance on conducting such assessments. Based on this evaluation under the COSO Framework, our management concluded that our internal controls over financial reporting are not effective as of December 31, 2020. 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. Based on that evaluation, they concluded that, as of December 31, 2021 , such internal controls and procedures were not effective to detect the inappropriate application of U.S. GAAP rules as more fully described below. This was due to deficiencies that existed in the design or operation of our internal control over financial reporting that adversely affected our internal controls and that may be considered to be material weaknesses.
The matters involving internal controls and procedures that the Company’s management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company’s Board of Directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; (2) inadequate segregation of duties consistent with control objectives; (3) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of U.S. GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (4) ineffective controls over period end financial disclosure and reporting processes. The aforementioned material weaknesses were identified by the Company’s Chief Financial Officer in connection with the review of our financial statements as of December 31, 2021 and communicated to our management.
Management believes that the material weaknesses set forth in items (2), (3) and (4) above did not have an effect on the Company’s financial results. However, management believes that the lack of a functioning audit committee and lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company’s Board of Directors, resulting in ineffective oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures, can result in the Company’s determination to its financial statements for the future years.
We are committed to improving our financial organization. As part of this commitment, we will create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives and will increase our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function when funds are available to the Company: i) Appointing one or more outside directors to our Board of Directors who shall be appointed to the audit committee of the Company resulting in a fully functioning audit committee who will undertake the oversight in the establishment and monitoring of required internal controls and procedures; and ii) preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists which will set forth procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of U.S. GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements.
Management believes that the appointment of more outside directors, who shall be appointed to a fully functioning audit committee, will remedy the lack of a functioning audit committee and a lack of a majority of outside directors on the Company’s Board. In addition, management believes that preparing and implementing sufficient written policies and checklists will remedy the following material weaknesses: (i) insufficient written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting with respect to the requirements and application of U.S. GAAP and SEC disclosure requirements; and (ii) ineffective controls over period end financial close and reporting processes. Further, management believes that the hiring of additional personnel who have the technical expertise and knowledge will result in proper segregation of duties and provide more checks and balances within the department. Additional personnel will also provide the cross training needed to support the Company if personnel turnover issues within the department occur. This coupled with the appointment of additional outside directors will greatly decrease any control and procedure issues the Company may encounter in the future.
| 39 |
We will continue to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of our internal controls and procedures and our internal controls over financial reporting on an ongoing basis and are committed to taking further action and implementing additional enhancements or improvements, as necessary and as funds allow.
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2021 that have materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm regarding internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to provide management report in the annual report.

Board of Directors
Our board of directors currently consists of four members. Our bylaws permit our board of directors to establish by resolution the authorized number of directors, and four directors are currently authorized.
Involvement in Certain Legal Proceedings
Over the past ten years, none of our directors or executive officers has been: (i) involved in any petition under Federal bankruptcy laws or any state insolvency law; (ii) convicted in a criminal proceeding or is a named subject of a pending criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations and other minor offenses); (iii) subject of any order, judgment, or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any court of competent jurisdiction, permanently or temporarily enjoining him from (a) acting as a future’s commission merchant, introducing broker, commodity trading advisor, commodity pool operator, floor broker, leverage transaction merchant, any other person regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or an associated person of any of the foregoing, or as an investment adviser, underwriter, broker or dealer in securities, or as an affiliated person, director or employee of any investment company, bank, savings and loan association or insurance company, or engaging in or continuing any conduct or practice in connection with such activity, (b) engaging in any type of business practice, or (c) engaging in any activity in connection with the purchase or sale of any security or commodity or in connection with any violation of Federal or State securities laws or Federal commodities laws; (iv) subject of any order, judgment or decree, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any Federal or State authority barring, suspending or otherwise limiting for more than 60 days the right to engage in any activity described in (iii)(a); (v) found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Commission to have violated any Federal or State securities law, and the judgment in such civil action or finding by the Commission has not been subsequently reversed, suspended, or vacated; (vi) found by a court of competent jurisdiction in a civil action or by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission to have violated any Federal commodities law, and the judgment in such civil action or finding by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission has not been subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated; (vii) subject of, or a party to, any Federal or State judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, or finding, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, relating to an alleged violation of (x) any Federal or State securities or commodities law or regulation, (y) any law or regulation respecting financial institutions or insurance companies, or (z) any law or regulation prohibiting mail or wire fraud or fraud in connection with any business entity; or (viii) the subject of, or a party to, any sanction or order, not subsequently reversed, suspended or vacated, of any self-regulatory organization (as defined in Section 3(a)(26) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78c(a)(26))), any registered entity (as defined in Section 1(a)(29) of the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. 1(a)(29))), or any equivalent exchange, association, entity or organization that has disciplinary authority over its members or persons associated with a member. Except as set forth in our discussion below in “Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence,” none of our directors, director nominees or executive officers has been involved in any transactions with us or any of our directors, executive officers, affiliates or associates which are required to be disclosed pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.
| 42 |
Committees of our Board of Directors
We presently do not have an audit committee, compensation committee or nominating committee or committee performing similar functions, as our management believes that until this point it has been premature at the early stage of our management and business development to form an audit, compensation or nominating committee. Until these committees are established, these decisions will continue to be made by our Board of Directors. Although our Board of Directors has not established any minimum qualifications for director candidates, when considering potential director candidates, our Board of Directors considers the candidate’s character, judgment, skills and experience in the context of the needs of our Company and our Board of Directors.
Nominating Committee. We have not established a Nominating Committee because of our limited operations; we believe that we are able to effectively manage the issues normally considered by a Nominating Committee.
Audit Committee. We do not have an Audit Committee. The Company’s Board performs some of the same functions of an Audit Committee, such as: recommending a firm of independent certified public accountants to audit the financial statements; reviewing the auditors’ independence, the financial statements and their audit report; and reviewing management’s administration of the system of internal accounting controls. The Company does not currently have a written audit committee charter or similar document.
In the event that our common stock becomes listed on a national stock exchange or an automated quotation system, we will be required to maintain audit, compensation and nominating, and corporate governance committees. We currently have no committees. Rather, the functions typically associated with auditing and other such committees are performed by our board of directors, which currently consists of four members, none of whom is considered independent.

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification Matters
Our articles of incorporation contain provisions that limit the liability of our directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law.
| 45 |
Our articles of incorporation and bylaws authorize our company to provide indemnification to our directors, officers, and persons who are or were serving at our request as a director, officer, manager or trustee of another corporation or of a partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise to the fullest extent permitted by Nevada law. Our articles of incorporation and bylaws also authorize our company, by action of our board of directors, to provide indemnification to employees, agents of our company, and persons who are serving or did serve at our request as an employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise with the same scope and effect as provided to our directors and officers as described above.
Our company has not entered into any indemnification agreement with any of its directors or officers.
No pending litigation or proceeding involving a director, officer, employee or other agent of our company currently exists as to which indemnification is being sought. We are not aware of any threatened litigation that may result in claims for indemnification by any director, officer, employee or other agent of our company.
We anticipate obtaining director and officer liability insurance with respect to possible director and officer liabilities arising out of certain matters, including matters arising under the Securities Act. See “Disclosure of SEC Position on Indemnification for Securities Act Liabilities.”
Disclosure of SEC Position on Indemnification for Securities Act Liabilities
Section 78.7502 of the Nevada Revised Statutes provides that directors and officers of Nevada corporations may, under certain circumstances, be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) and other liabilities actually and reasonably incurred by them as a result of any suit brought against them in their capacity as a director or officer, if they acted in good faith and in a manner that they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, if they had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. Section 78.7502 of the Nevada Revised Statutes also provides that directors and officers of a Nevada corporation also may be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with a derivative suit if they acted in good faith and in a manner that they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, except that no indemnification may be made without court approval if such person was adjudged liable to the corporation.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to the directors, officers or persons controlling the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, the registrant has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.
In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by our Company of expenses incurred or paid by such director, officer or controlling person of our company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by any director, officer or controlling person of our Company in connection with the securities being registered in the registration statement, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by our company is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

* Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC that generally attribute beneficial ownership of securities to persons who possess sole or shared voting power and/or investment power with respect to those securities. Common stock subject to options or warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the date of this annual report are deemed to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the person or group holding such options or warrants for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of such person or group but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person or group. Unless otherwise indicated, voting and investment power are exercised solely by the person named above or shared with members of such person’s household.
** Percent of class is calculated on the basis of the number of shares outstanding on the date of this annual report plus the number of shares the person has the right to acquire within 60 days of the date of this annual report.

Director Independence
Under the rules of the national securities exchanges, a majority of a listed company’s board of directors must be comprised of independent directors, and each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees must be independent as well. Under the same rules a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if that company’s board of directors affirmatively determines that such director has no material relationship with that company, either directly or as a partner, shareholder or officer of an organization that has a relationship with that company.
In addition, the members of that company’s audit committee must satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Rule 10A-3”). In order to be considered to be independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3, no member of the audit committee may, other than in his capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors or any other board committee: (1) accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from the company or any of its subsidiaries or (2) be an affiliated person of the company or any of its subsidiaries.

Our Board of Directors pre-approves all services provided by our independent auditors. All of the above services and fees were reviewed and approved by the Board either before or after the respective services were rendered.
Our Board of Directors has considered the nature and amount of fees billed by our independent auditors and believes that the provision of services for activities unrelated to the audit is compatible with maintaining our independent auditors’ independence.
