Basis of presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that permit reduced disclosure for interim periods. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring entries considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results of operations for these periods are not necessarily comparable to, or indicative of, results of any other interim period or for the fiscal year taken as a whole. The condensed consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2020 was derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 31, 2020, filed with the SEC on April 26, 2021 (the “report”). These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the report.
The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP which contemplates continuation of the Company as
a going-concern basis. The going-concern basis assumes that assets are realized, and liabilities are settled in the ordinary course
of business at amounts disclosed in the financial statements. Although the Company has generated a negative operating cash flow of
$
Basis of consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The results of subsidiaries acquired during the respective periods are included in the consolidated statements of operations from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal, as appropriate. The portion of the income or loss applicable to noncontrolling interests in subsidiaries is reflected in the consolidated statements of operations.

Use of estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions relating to the reporting of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant accounting estimates include certain assumptions related to going concern, allowance of doubtful accounts, allowance of deferred tax asset, useful lives and impairment of long-lived assets, and impairment of goodwill. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Reclassification
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no impact on net earnings and financial position.
Foreign currency translation and re-measurement
The Company translates its foreign operations to the U.S. dollar in accordance with ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters”.
The reporting currency for the Company and its subsidiaries is the U.S. dollar. The Company, DIGLS, DILHK, JJGS and JJHK’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar; QHDX, JJSZ and their subsidiaries which are incorporated in PRC use the Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”) as their functional currency.
The Company’s subsidiaries, whose records are not maintained in that company’s functional currency, re-measure their records into their functional currency as follows:
| ● | Monetary assets and liabilities at exchange rates in effect at the end of each period | |
| ● | Nonmonetary assets and liabilities at historical rates | |
| ● | Revenue and expense items at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the period |
Gains and losses from these re-measurements were not significant and have been included in the Company’s results of operations.
The Company’s subsidiaries, whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, translate their records into the U.S. dollar as follows:
| ● | Assets and liabilities at the rate of exchange in effect at the balance sheet date | |
| ● | Equities at the historical rate | |
| ● | Revenue and expense items at the average rate of exchange prevailing during the period |
Translation of amounts from the local currencies of the Company into US$ has been made at the following exchange rates for the respective periods:
SCHEDULE OF FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE TRANSLATION
| As of and for the six months ended June 30, | ||||||||
| 2021 | 2020 | |||||||
| Period-end RMB:US$1 exchange rate | ||||||||
| Period-average RMB:US$1 exchange rate | ||||||||
The RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currency and all foreign exchange transactions must take place through authorized institutions. No representation is made that the RMB amounts could have been, or could be, converted into US dollars at the rates used in translation.
| 9 |
Impairment of long-lived assets other than goodwill
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. Impairment may be the result of becoming obsolete from a change in the industry or new technologies. Impairment is present if the carrying amount of an asset is less than its undiscounted cash flows to be generated.
If an asset is considered impaired, a loss is recognized based on the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair market value of the asset. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
The Company did not recognize any impairment of long-lived assets during the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020.
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net identifiable assets acquired in a business combination. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Others”, goodwill is subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may exist, applying a fair-value based test. Fair value is generally determined using a discounted cash flow analysis. The Company would recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value up to the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.
During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company did not record any impairment of goodwill.
| 10 |
Revenue recognition
The Company follows the guidance of ASC 606, revenue from contracts with customers is recognized using the following five steps:
| 1. | Identify the contract(s) with a customer; | |
| 2. | Identify the performance obligations in the contract; | |
| 3. | Determine the transaction price; | |
| 4. | Allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and | |
| 5. | Recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. |
Under Topic 606, revenues are recognized when the promised products have been confirmed of delivery or services have been transferred to the consumers in amounts that reflect the consideration the customer expects to be entitled to in exchange for those services. The Company presents value added taxes (“VAT”) as reductions of revenues. The Company recognizes revenues net of value added taxes (“VAT”) and relevant charges.
We generate revenue primarily from the sales of wine, water and oil directly to agents, wholesalers and end users. We recognize product revenue at a point in time when the control of the products has been transferred to customers. The transfer of control is considered complete when products have been picked up by or delivered to our customers. We account for shipping and handling fees as a fulfillment cost.
The following table provides information about disaggregated revenue based on revenue by product types:

liabilities consist mainly of customer advances. On certain occasions, the Company may receive prepayments from downstream retailers
or wholesales customers for wines, water and other products prior to them taking possession of the Company’s products. The Company
records these receipts as customer advances until the control of the products has been transferred the customers. As of June 30, 2021
and December 31, 2020, the Company had customer advances of $
Related party transaction
Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.
Recent accounting pronouncements adopted
In December 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740) Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The ASU removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and improves consistent application of and simplifies GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. On January 1, 2021, the Company adopted ASU 2019-12 on a prospective basis. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

| Working capital | $ | 2,360,398 | $ | 2,234,608 | $ | 125,790 | ||||||
As of June 30, 2021, we had working capital of $2,360,398, as compared to working capital of $2,234,608 as of December 31, 2020. We had total current assets of $4,353,686, consisting of cash on hand of $420,400, Inventory of $136,361, prepayments and other current assets of $2,577,516, accounts receivable of $1,189,597 and amount due from related party of $29,812, compared to total current assets of $4,231,054 as of December 31, 2020. The increase was mainly due to the increase in prepayments and other current assets, offset by the decrease in accounts receivable and due from related parties. We had current liabilities of $1,993,288, consisting of accounts payable of $204,012, customer advances $695,695, income tax payable $113,964, due to related parties of $729,258 and accrued liabilities of $108,236.
Our cash balance at June 30, 2021 increased to $420,400, as compared to $249,837 at December 31, 2020. We estimate the Company currently has sufficient cash available to meet its anticipated working capital for the next twelve months, without raising additional capital. The Company is continuing to look for different financing opportunities in order to increase sufficient working capital and improve liquidity.
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and the settlement of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company had a net income of $792,455 and used cash in operations of $689,467 and at June 30, 2021, the Company had a working capital of $2,360,398. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm expressed in its report on the Company’s financial statement for the year ended December 31, 2020 a substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. Based on the Company’s effort in improving its operations and the significant working capital generated as of June 30, 2021, the management believes that the substantial doubt has been alleviated.
Despite the increased working capital of the Company, no assurance can be given that any future financing, if needed, will be available or, if available, that it will be on terms that are satisfactory to the Company. Even if the Company is able to obtain additional financing, if needed, it may contain undue restrictions on its operations, in the case of debt financing, or cause substantial dilution for its shareholders, in the case of equity financing.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
As a “smaller reporting company” as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company is not required to provide the information under this item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We conducted an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures. The term “disclosure controls and procedures”, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures also include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’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 this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of June 30, 2021, that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective.
The matters involving internal controls and procedures that our management considered to be material weaknesses under the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board were: (1) lack of well-established procedures to identify, approve and review related party transactions; and (2) inadequate design of controls related to business combination transactions accounting given the accounting complexities of business combinations, including, but not limited to, lack of mindset and methods to assess the value of the business prior to acquisition, inadequate process to determine the purchase price, lack of professional understanding to determine when the control of the business acquired is transferred or when the transaction is completed, and inability to make the appropriate disclosure.
Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Our management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the Company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by the board of directors (the “Board”), management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and includes those policies and procedures that:
| ● | Apply to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; | |
| ● | Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and | |
| ● | Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. |
| 19 |
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective can provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control, there is a risk that material misstatements may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis by internal control over financial reporting. However, these inherent limitations are known features of the financial reporting process. Therefore, it is possible to design into the process safeguards to reduce, though not eliminate, this risk.
We carried out an assessment, under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act, as of June 30, 2021. Management based the assessment on criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control - Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework). Management’s assessment included an evaluation of the design of our internal control over financial reporting and testing of the operational effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting. Based on this assessment, management has concluded that as of June 30, 2021, our internal control over financial reporting was not effective to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In an effort to remediate the identified material weaknesses and other deficiencies and enhance our internal controls, we have initiated, or plan to initiate, the following series of measures:
| ● | We have increased our personnel resources and technical accounting expertise within the accounting function and intend to hire one or more additional personnel for the function due to turnover. | |
| ● | We will create a position to segregate duties consistent with control objectives. | |
| ● | We plan to prepare written policies and procedures for operating, accounting and financial reporting to establish a formal process to close our books monthly on an accrual basis and account for all transactions, including equity and debt transactions. | |
| ● | We plan to test our updated controls and remediate our deficiencies in the year 2021. |
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this Report, which has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal controls over financial reporting, except that we have remediated one of our material weaknesses by establishing an Audit Committee on April 9, 2021, with an independent director, Yumei Liu, qualifies as an audit committee financial expert as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K.
