In February and March 2011, the Company opened two internet cafes in Shenzhen, one located at Sanyanghu Society Market and the other located at 1 Shabao Road, Shatang Society, Pingshan office, both in the Pingshan New District of Shenzhen City.

Management expects to initially have 80,000 registered users across both locations with average revenue per computer of $0.70/hour.

Residents consist of locals and migrant workers from nearby factories and business centers including a manufacturing center with over 30,000 employees. These two cafes are expected to generate approximately $1.2 million during the fiscal year.
