Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Three Months Ended March 31, 2023 and March 31, 2022

Cost of Revenue, page 13

 

7. You indicate that the increase was due to professional expenses. Cost of Revenue significantly decreased during the period, however. Please revise your filing to explain the significant decrease in cost of revenue during the period.

 

Response: Cost of revenue were $9,397 and $78,777 for the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The cost of revenue comes from outsourcing of services.The significant decrease in Cost of Revenue is corresponding with the decrease in revenues. This is because the Company slashed out certain unprofitable projects in 2023. For the period ended 3/31/2022, the professional fees paid was $78,777 as the Company engaged professional service providers in relation to ongoing special projects and activities, which resulted in incremental cost. However, the gross profit margin of these projects is not favorable. Thus, the Company abandoned these project to achieve a more favorable gross profit margin.

 

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures, page 16

 

8. Please tell us how your management was able to conclude that your disclosure controls and procedures were effective at March 31, 2023 when they concluded that they were not effective as of December 31, 2022 due to the fact that the directors have little understanding of U.S. GAAP and Sarbanes Oxley and you also indicate on page 13 that there were no changes in internal control during the period. Please advise.

 

Response: We updated the section of change in internal control as following: “We change our director from Yanru Zhou to Esther Jou on March 31, 2023, who possesses adequate knowledge of U.S GAAP and Sarbanes-Oxley Act 404, as well as understanding of the Company. She is responsible for helping design and improve the ICFR and accounting job of our Company by adopting procedures and processes to meet control objectives, addressing risks, reducing occurrences of unnecessary cost or effort and strengthen governance. In addition, she reviews the ICFR and remedy its drawback for this 10Q.”
