About Greater China Media and Entertainment Corporation:
Greater China Media and Entertainment Corporation is an Exploration Stage Company. The Company has recently expanded into the media and entertainment industry in China. In June, 2006, it signed and closed an Acquisition Agreement with Triumph Research Limited, which is a BVI company and party to a Joint Venture agreement with Beijing Tangde International Film and Culture Co., Ltd. ("Tangde"), a Chinese company. In July, 2006, the Company also signed a letter of intent to form a joint venture with Beijing New-Element Co. Ltd. ("New-Element"), a promotion and marketing company based in Beijing.
The Company acquired a mineral property located in the Province of British Columbia, Canada in 2005 and has not yet determined whether this property contains reserves that are economically recoverable. The Company has started exploration. The rock exposure samples have undergone analyses for the detection of precious metals in a certified laboratory and the Company will do further exploration to verify the results.
If we find mineralized material and it is economically feasible to remove the mineralized material, we will attempt to raise additional money through a subsequent private placement, public offering or through loans. If we need additional cash and can't raise it, we will either have to suspend activities until we do raise the cash, or cease activities entirely. If we can't find any mineralized material or it is not economically feasible to remove the mineralized material, we will have to cease activities and focus on the new market: the media and entertainment industry in China.
