The sheet for which this Company has been formed are by contained in the Articles of In- corporation and Bye-Laws of the Company, and in particulae to nequire, fake over, operate and control a group of the leading motion picture theatres throughout China and the Orient generally.

Mr Kan, who has consented to serve as the first Managing Director of the Congany, is well known throughout the Orient and America as a pioneer in the motion picture business in China and Hongkong. He has had a long and wide experience and has a specialised knowledge of all branches Mr. Lo Kan has achieved outstanding snecess one of the prorooters and of the inema industry Managing Director of the Hongkong Amusements, Ltd., Hongkong, since its inception, and he directs or controls no tan 84 of the adding cinema-theatres in China and Hongkong, of several of which he is the owner, and some of his everal appointments are as follows; --

Part of the proceeds of the present isste will be used to acquire:--

Control of a minimum of 40 of the leading motion picture theatres in Shanghai and out-

rts under an aggreenfcht entered into between Mr. Le Kan and the Company.

A majority share interest of the Hongkong Amusements, Ltd., under an agreement enteren into between certain Shareholders of the Hongkong Amusements, Ltd. and the company. Control of the Puma Fi.mns, Ltd., and the Theatre Equipment Co., Ltd.

The estimated cost of obtaining this control is Cls, 2300,000.00 and is based on the past working of the theatres at present in operation.

It is intended to use the balance of this issue, viz.. Tls. 700,000 for the erection of studios and the production of Chinese pictures and also for obtaining control of farther theatres where advan taroons to the Company.

Negotiations are at present in progress for the lease on long term of 22 mow of land for the efection of studios. Modern equipment for the taking of sound pictures has already been purchased and an expert from the Radio Corporation of America is due to arrive in Shanghai shortly to supervise The Company intends to lease studio the erection of the studios and the installation of the equipment.

units to local companies and to encourage further Chinese companies to make sound and talking pie- tures. Not only will the Conpary obtain a handsome return on its capital by leasing these units, but will also obtain a first refusal on all pictures produced at the studios.

When it is realised that good Chinese pictures run in the cheaper-priced theatreg longer than any foreign picture, the vast possibilities of Chinese pictures will be recognized.

There are less than 100 modern theatres in China, a strikingly small number when compared with he approximate number of 1,400 muation picture theatres in Japan, illustrating the immense potentialities of the motion picture business throughout China, which is at present in its infancy, The theatres to be acquired will accmnmodate the release in China of the principal foreign producers with whom the Company, through Mr. Ta Kan, will have the advantage of favourable contracts already entered into, and to afford releases of Chinese productions which will shortly be available from several Chinese producing companies.

The Shanghai theatres will be well distributed throughout the city and each is especially designed to fulfil the particular requirements of the community in which it is loented.

Among the many obvious advantages to be obtained from the consolidation of a large group of motion-picture theatres under centralised control, operation and management, may be mentioned considerably reduced overhead expenditure, and increased revenue resulting from selected distribution and better exploitation of the latest pictures.

By having a chain of theatres under unified control the Company will be able to establish purchasing offices in the picture producing centres in the U.S.A. and England, enabling direct contact to be maintained with some 25 or more producers who have no direct representation in Chinn at the present time.

The issued Capital of 600,000 Common Shares of Tels 5 each par value has been fully underwritten, of which 150,000 Common Shares are now offered for public subscription in the terms of this Prospectus, If more than 150,000 shares are applied for applications exccoding. 1,000 shares from each applicant will be allotted pro rata to applications,

The original Directors have been granted the option of acquiring at par (Taels 5 each), within one year from the incorporation of the Company, 50.000 shares of the unfasued Capital of the Company.
