On July 25, 2022, we were dismissed. We have read the section “Change in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant” of the Registration Statement on Form F-3 of Fangdd Network Group Ltd., the disclosure of which is required under Item 16F of Form 20-F and is expected to be filed on or around September 5, 2022, and we agree with such statements, except that we are not in a position to agree or disagree with the Company’s statements that:

 

(1)on July 29, 2022, Audit Alliance LLP or Audit Alliance was engaged as principal accountants;

 

(2)the decision to change accountants was approved by the audit committee of the board of directors;

 

(3)neither the Company nor anyone on its behalf has consulted with Audit Alliance LLP on either (a) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and neither a written report nor oral advice was provided to the Company by Audit Alliance LLP that Audit Alliance LLP concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to any accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, or (b) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement, as that term is defined in Item 16F(a)(1)(iv) of Form 20-F (and the related instructions thereto) or a reportable event as set forth in Item 16F(a)(1)(v) of Form 20-F.
