The global coronavirus outbreak (COVID-19) spread to strike every economy around the world, severely impacting people’s daily lives. In 2020, the Hong Kong economy recorded an annual contraction of 6.1%, the largest in its history. This was mainly due to the suspension of economic activities based on tourism and reduced consumption under the stringent anti- pandemic lockdown measures and strict border closures. During the Reviewing Year, the economic environment was dampened by the various pandemic waves which persistently affected the Group’s operations and financial performance – with new project launches delayed and ongoing projects suspended. Nonetheless, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Group’s business should be temporary. According to economic figures released by the HKSAR government in May 2021, Hong Kong’s economy saw growth in GDP in the first quarter of 2021, recording a 7.9% year-on-year (YoY) growth in and a 5.4% quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) growth for three consecutive quarters. For the Reviewing Year, the Group recorded a 8.3% decline in revenue to approximately HK$145,380,000 (2020: HK$158,504,000). This was mainly due to a decline in projects completed and the absence of major projects. Profit for the Reviewing Year increased by 385.5% to approximately HK$12,724,000 (2020: HK$2,621,000), which was mainly attributed to the absence of non-recurring transfer of listing expenses incurred in relation to the transfer of listing (the “Main Board Transfer”) of the shares (“Shares”) of the Company from GEM to the Main Board of The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong Limited (the “Stock Exchange”) in December 2019 as well as government subsidies from the Employment Support Scheme. As a leading provider of video conferencing and multimedia audiovisual (“VCMA”) solutions in Hong Kong with over three decades’ of experience, we offer customers integrated and customized VCMA solution and maintenance services. These range from project consultation and design, to project management, installation and maintenance. Our extensive and established customer base includes major government and financial institutions and multi-national corporations, public companies and education institutions that are primarily located in Hong Kong though with some in the People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) and Macau. We provide them with customized VCMA solutions to suit various requirements and specifications across a wide spectrum of industries. In 2020, Hong Kong’s commercial property market was severely hit by the COVID-19 pandemic, bringing the vacancy rate to a 16-year high of 12% and hurting our VCMA solutions business due to reduced demand for smart office systems, audiovisual equipment and related services. The postponement and cancellation of onsite business conferences, closure of shopping centers, and suspension of public events all seriously affected the sales of various hi-tech digital display products. Under the new normal during the Reviewing Year, the shift from onsite to online education – necessitated by social distancing measures – led to a surge in demand from education institutions for cloud-based services, which created fresh opportunities for the Group in providing a series of system integration and assembly and total solutions that supporting cloud-based education. Although revenue from such business is insignificant, we foresee the future potential of VCMA total solutions for specially addressing the rising and on-going demand for cloud-related equipment and total solutions will be able to bring stable growth in sales on our integrated solutions. i-Control Holdings Limited 4 Annual Report 2021 CHAIRMAN’S STATEMENT In early 2021, we expanded into the ubiquitous internet of things (“IoT”) sector where Information Technology and Operational Technology (“IT+OT”) converge. On 4 February 2021, we entered into a joint venture agreement in relation to Beijing National Greenfield Technology Co. Limited*（北京能興國雲信息科技有限公司）(“Beijing National Greenfield”), an 85% owned joint venture located in the PRC which focuses on inter alia, IoT cloud services, cyber security operation centre products and services, and digital transformation consulting services. On 5 March 2021, we also acquired a 4% stake in Changzhou Guoyun Green Data Technology Co., Limited*（常州國雲綠色數據技術有限公司）(“Changzhou Guoyun”) which owns a plot of land in Changzhou, the PRC’s innovation hub for technology enterprises. This plot of land is being developed into a smart and sustainable internet data center (“IDC”) that is expected to be completed and begin operations by end of 2021. We have every confidence in embarking on this new development. Not only do we have solid experience in VCMA solutions and expertise in cloud technology platforms, we can also draw on the deep experience of Beijing National Greenfield’s management team in serving multinational companies and playing a senior role in planning, building and maintaining major cloud infrastructure and management projects. From 2022, we expect our IT+OT business to become a new revenue driver for the Group, allowing us to target major multi-national and local enterprises in the PRC and provide them with a full range of cloud services – from Software as a Service (SaaS), self-developed data security operation center products and services through to IDC digital management products and services. In June 2021, Beijing National Greenfield achieved a significant milestone by entering into a 5-year strategic cooperation with Micro Focus Singapore entity on distributing Micro Focus’s product, ArcSight, in China by using Beijing National Greenfield’s own brand, and offering Micro Focus’s cloud management service in the PRC. Micro Focus is a world leading enterprise software company, and ArcSight is a cyber security product which provides big data security analytics and intelligence software for security information and event management (SIEM) and log management. As a startup company, Beijing National Greenfield has great potential of future development after having this cooperation. The Hong Kong economy is expected to grow by 3.5% to 5.5% in 2021. In the post-pandemic economy, we anticipate increasing demand for VCMA solution services arising from the trend toward smart offices. The Group will prudently seek opportunities in both VCMA solution services and IT+OT and smart

  • The History and Context of Chinese-Western Intercultural Marriage in Modern and Contemporary China (From 1840 to the 21St Century)
    The History And Context Of Chinese-Western Intercultural Marriage In Modern And Contemporary China (From 1840 To The 21st Century) Australian wife Margaret and her Chinese husband Quong Tart and their three eldest children, 1894. Source: Tart McEvoy papers, Society of Australian Genealogists 1.1 Brief Introduction It is now becoming more and more common to see Chinese-Western intercultural couples in China and other countries. In the era of the global village, intercultural marriage between different races and nationalities is frequent. It brings happiness, but also sorrow, as there are both understandings and misunderstandings, as well as conflicts and integrations. With the reform of China and the continuous development, and improvement of China’s reputation internationally, many aspects of intercultural marriage have changed from ancient to contemporary times in China. Although marriage is a very private affair for the individuals who participate in it, it also reflects and connects with many complex factors such as economic development, culture differences, political backgrounds and transition of traditions, in both China and the Western world. As a result, an ordinary marriage between a Chinese person and a Westerner is actually an episode in a sociological grand narrative. This paper reviews the history of Chinese-Western marriage in modern China from 1840 to 1949, and it reveals the history of the earliest Chinese marriages to Westerners at the beginning of China’s opening up. More Chinese men married Western wives at first, while later unions between Chinese wives and Western husbands outnumbered these. Four types of CWIMs in modern China were studied. Both Western and Chinese governments’ policies and attitudes towards Chinese-Western marriages in this period were also studied.

    Feel The Charge! Nenking Group Unveils Its Guangzhou Overwatch League Team Branding NOVEMBER 9, 2018 GUANGZHOU, CHINA - Today, the Nenking Group unveiled the name of its Overwatch League team – the Guangzhou Charge. The Nenking Group’s Executive Chairman, Mr. Zhong Naixiong, is proud to be the first Chinese expansion team to announce its branding. “We are the first esports team to represent Guangzhou, and we want to express the spirit of our city and our team as first to lead the charge into a bright future.” The team’s brand can be viewed on Weibo, Wechat and Twitter @GZCharge, and Facebook at fb.me/GZCharge. Sonny Xiao, CEO of the Guangzhou Charge, explained how the team name was chosen. “We chose Charge because it expresses our vision to lead the esports movement in China, and to be at the forefront of innovation. It also expresses our vision for a competitive team that plays aggressive and bold.” The Guangzhou Charge represents a home region that encompasses the Guangdong-Hong-Kong Macau Greater Bay Area. The team will compete in the Pacific Division of the Overwatch League starting in the 2019 season. Chris Hwang, the team’s Marketing and Creative Director, said of the team logo: “We want to build an international organization and fanbase, so the goal for our team brand was to create a symbol for Guangzhou that people from all of the world can instantly recognize. We took inspiration from iconic sports logos where simple letters have grown to represent an entire city.” Chris explains that, “We have a large home region that stretches from the coast to the mountains, and we drew inspiration from dark blue waters, light blue skies, and lush green hills for our team colors.
