The Company's Annual Report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, which is not part of this Proxy Statement, was filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 8, 2022.

Voting By Registered Holders of Ordinary Shares

When your Proxy Card is returned properly executed, the Ordinary Shares it represents will be voted in accordance with your specifications.

You may vote "for" or "against" each item or "abstain" from voting by marking the appropriate box.

If you sign and return your Proxy Card but do not specify any choices, you will thereby confer discretionary authority for your Ordinary Shares to be voted as recommended by the Board. The Proxy Card also confers discretionary authority on the individuals named therein to vote on any variations to the proposed resolutions.

Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual General Meeting, you can be assured that your Ordinary Shares are voted by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed Proxy Card to the attention of the Company's chief financial officer at 22F, Block B, Xinhua Technology Building, No. 8 Tuofangying South Road, Jiuxianqiao, Chaoyang District, Beijing, China 100016, not less than forty-eight (48) hours before the time appointed for the Annual General Meeting. You may revoke your Proxy Card at any time before it is exercised by giving written notice thereof to the Secretary of the Company, by submitting a subsequently dated Proxy Card, by attending the Annual General Meeting and withdrawing the Proxy Card, or by voting in person at the Annual General Meeting.

Each holder of the Ordinary Shares in the capital of the Company in issue, and recorded in the Register of Members of the Company at the close of business on February 14, 2023, is entitled to one vote on a show of hands and, on a poll, to one vote for each Ordinary Share so held at the Annual General Meeting. All such Ordinary Shares entitled to vote at the Annual General Meeting are referred to herein as "Record Shares." The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the Record Shares will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual General Meeting. Resolutions put to the vote at the Annual General Meeting will be decided by a show of hands unless a poll is, before or on the declaration of the result of the show of hands, demanded by the Chairman of the Annual General Meeting or any holder of Record Shares present in person or by proxy. Every holder of a Record Share present in person or by proxy is entitled to one vote on a show of hands and, on a poll, to one vote for each Record Share held.

If two or more persons are jointly registered as holders of an Ordinary Share then in voting, the vote of the senior who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of other holders of the Ordinary Share and, for this purpose seniority, shall be determined by the order in which the names stand on the register of the Members.

Broker Non-Votes and Abstentions

Under the rules of various national and regional securities exchanges, your broker, bank or other nominee cannot vote your shares with respect to non-discretionary matters unless you provide instructions on how to vote in accordance with the information and procedures provided to you by your broker, bank or other nominee. The Director Appointment Proposal will be considered non-discretionary and therefore your broker, bank or other nominee cannot vote your shares without your instruction. If you do not provide instructions with your proxy, your bank, broker or other nominee may deliver a proxy Card expressly indicating that it is NOT voting your shares; this indication that a broker, bank or other nominee is not voting your shares is referred to as a "broker non-vote." However, the Ratification of Auditors Proposal will be considered discretionary and therefore your broker, bank or other nominee may vote your shares without your instruction.

With respect to the meeting, abstentions and broker non-votes will be considered present for the purposes of establishing a quorum but will have no effect on any of the Proposals.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board is responsible for establishing broad corporate policies and for overseeing the overall performance of the Company. The Board reviews significant developments affecting the Company and acts on other matters requiring its approval.

Number and Terms of Directors. Our board of directors is divided into three classes with only one class of directors being appointed in each year and each class (except for those directors appointed prior to our first annual Meeting) serving a three-year term. The term of office for Class I directors, consisting of Messrs. Zhihong Tan, and Jia Lu, will expire at our 2023 Annual Meeting. The term of office of the Class II directors, consisting of Messrs. Yong Li and Bing Zhang, will expire at the 2024 Annual Meeting and the term of office of the Class III directors, consisting of Mr. Ke Chen, will expire at the 2022 Annual Meeting.

Director Independence. Currently, each of Messrs. Zhihong Tan, Yong Li, and Ke Chen would be considered an "independent director" under the NASDAQ listing rules, which is defined generally as a person other than an officer or employee of the company or its subsidiaries or any other individual having a relationship, which, in the opinion of the company's board of directors would interfere with the director's exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Our independent directors will have regularly scheduled meetings at which only independent directors are present.

Committees of the Board of Directors. Our board of directors has three standing committees: an audit committee, a nominating committee and a compensation committee. Subject to phase-in rules and certain limited exceptions, the rules of NASDAQ and Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act require that the audit committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors, and the rules of NASDAQ require that the compensation committee and nominating committee of a listed company be comprised solely of independent directors.

3

Audit Committee. We have established an audit committee of the board of directors, which consists of Messrs. Zhihong Tan, Yong Li, and Ke Chen, each of whom is an independent director under NASDAQ's listing standards. Mr. Tan is the Chairperson of the audit committee.

The audit committee's duties, which are specified in our Audit Committee Charter, include, but are not limited to:

●	reviewing and discussing with management and the independent auditor the annual audited financial statements, and recommending to the board whether the audited financial statements should be included in our annual report;

●	discussing with management and the independent auditor significant financial reporting issues and judgments made in connection with the preparation of our financial statements;

●	discussing with management major risk assessment and risk management policies;

●	monitoring the independence of the independent auditor;

●	verifying the rotation of the lead (or coordinating) audit partner having primary responsibility for the audit and the audit partner responsible for reviewing the audit as required by law;

●	reviewing and approving all related-party transactions;

●	inquiring and discussing with management our compliance with applicable laws and regulations;

●	pre-approving all audit services and permitted non-audit services to be performed by our independent auditor, including the fees and terms of the services to be performed;

●	appointing or replacing the independent auditor;

●	determining the compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor (including resolution of disagreements between management and the independent auditor regarding financial reporting) for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit report or related work;

●	establishing procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by us regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or reports which raise material issues regarding our financial statements or accounting policies; and

●	approving reimbursement of expenses incurred by our management team in identifying potential target businesses.

The audit committee will at all times be composed exclusively of "independent directors" who are "financially literate" as defined under NASDAQ listing standards. NASDAQ listing standards define "financially literate" as being able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, including a company's balance sheet, income statement and cash flow statement.

In addition, we must certify to NASDAQ that the committee has, and will continue to have, at least one member who has past employment experience in finance or accounting, requisite professional certification in accounting, or other comparable experience or background that results in the individual's financial sophistication. The board of directors has determined that Messrs. Ming Shu Leung, Yong Li, and Ke Chen each qualify as an "audit committee financial expert," as defined under rules and regulations of the SEC.

Nominating Committee. We have established a nominating committee of the board of directors, which consists of Messrs. Zhihong Tan, Yong Li, and Ke Chen, each of whom is an independent director under NASDAQ's listing standards. Mr. Chen is the Chairperson of the nominating committee. The nominating committee is responsible for overseeing the selection of persons to be nominated to serve on our board of directors. The nominating committee considers persons identified by its members, management, shareholders, investment bankers and others.

4

Compensation Committee. We have established a compensation committee of the board of directors, which consists of Messrs. Zhihong Tan, Yong Li, and Ke Chen, each of whom is an independent director under NASDAQ's listing standards. Mr. Li is the Chairperson of the compensation committee. The compensation committee's duties, which are specified in our Compensation Committee Charter, include, but are not limited to:

●

reviewing and approving on an annual basis the corporate goals and objectives relevant to our Chief Executive Officer's compensation, evaluating our Chief Executive Officer's performance in light of such goals and objectives and determining and approving the remuneration (if any) of our Chief Executive Officer's based on such evaluation;

PROPOSAL NO. 1. ELECTION OF CLASS III DIRECTOR

The Company currently has five (5) directors. Accordingly, the Board is divided into three (3) classes as nearly equal in number as the then total number of directors permits. Each Class I, Class II and Class III director will be appointed for a three -year term. If the number of directors is changed, any increase or decrease will be apportioned among the classes so that one-third of the directors will retire from office at each annual general meeting, and any additional directors of any class appointed to fill a vacancy resulting from an increase in that class will hold office for a term that shall coincide with the remaining term of that class, but in no case will a decrease in the number of directors shorten the term of any incumbent director.

At the 2022 Annual General Meeting, the existing Class III Director consisting of Mr. Ke Chen is being proposed to be appointed for a three-year term ending 2025, and until his successor is appointed and duly qualified, or until such director's earlier resignation or removal.

China, since 2017 and as its deputy director of the financial securities department from 2014 to 2017. Prior to that time Mr. Chen was an associate at Hogan Lovells since 2004. Mr. Chen focuses his legal practice on banking, stock securities, fund, project finance, mergers and acquisitions, corporate finance, foreign direct investments, outbound investments, construction, real estate and regulatory and compliance work. Mr. Chen received a LLB in 2002 and a LLM in 2003 from the University of Buckingham.

Mr. Chen has consented to being named in this Proxy Statement and to serve on the Board, if appointed. In the event that the nominee is not be available, the persons named in the Proxy Card will vote for the other nominees and may vote for a substitute for the unavailable nominee.
