In accessing this offering memorandum, you agree to be bound by the following terms and conditions, including any modifications to them any time you receive any information from us as a result of such access.

THE SECURITIES REFERRED TO IN THIS OFFERING MEMORANDUM HAVE NOT BEEN, AND WILL NOT BE, REGISTERED UNDER THE U.S. SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES OR OTHER JURISDICTION, AND MAY NOT BE OFFERED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED WITHIN THE UNITED STATES, EXCEPT PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM, OR IN A TRANSACTION NOT SUBJECT TO, THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS OF THE SECURITIES ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE OR LOCAL SECURITIES LAWS. The offering memorandum is not a prospectus for the purposes of the European Union’s Directive 2003/71/EC (as amended or superseded) as implemented in member states of the European Economic Area (the “EEA”). The communication of the attached document and any other document or materials relating to the issue of the securities described therein is not being made, and such documents and/or materials have not been approved, by an authorized person for the purposes of section 21 of the United Kingdom’s Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, as amended (“FSMA”). Accordingly, such documents and/or materials are not being distributed to, and must not be passed on to, the general public in the United Kingdom. The communication of such documents and/or materials as a financial promotion is only being made to those persons in the United Kingdom who have professional experience in matters relating to investors and who fall within the definition of investment professionals (as defined in Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005, as amended (the “Financial Promotion Order”)), or who fall within Article 49(2)(a) to (d) of the Financial Promotion Order, or who are any other persons to whom it may otherwise lawfully be made under the Financial Promotion Order (all such persons together being referred to as “relevant persons”). In the United Kingdom, the securities described in the attached document are only available to, and any investment or investment activity to which the attached document relates will be engaged in only with, relevant persons. Any person in the United Kingdom that is not a relevant person should not act or rely on the attached document or any of its contents. Prohibition of sales to EEA retail investors – The Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the EEA. For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014/65/EU, as amended (“MiFID II”); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016/97, as amended or superseded (the “Insurance Distribution Directive”), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II. Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014, as amended (the “PRIIPs Regulation”) for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation. MiFID II product governance/Professional investors and ECPs only target market – Solely for the purposes of the manufacturer’s product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the Notes has led to the conclusion that: (i) the target market for the Notes is eligible counterparties and professional clients only, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) all channels for distribution of the Notes to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending the Notes (a “distributor”) should take into consideration the manufacturer’s target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the manufacturer’s target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels. Notification under Section 309B(1)(c) of the Securities and Futures Act, Chapter 289 of Singapore (the “SFA”) – the Company has determined, and hereby notifies all relevant persons (as defined in Section 309A(1) of the SFA), that the Notes are prescribed capital markets products (as defined in the Securities and Futures (Capital Markets Products) Regulations 2018 of Singapore) and Excluded Investment Products (as defined in MAS Notice SFA 04-N12: Notice on the Sale of Investment Products and MAS Notice FAA-N16: Notice on Recommendations on Investment Products).

    China Film Industry Report 2012-2013 (in Brief) China Film Industry Report 2012-2013 (in Brief) www.entgroup.com.cn 0 China Film Industry Report 2012-2013 (in Brief) I Research Background In 2010,the State Council of China issued a series of guidance for film and cultural industries, which gave significant support to the development of Chinese film industry at the macro policy level. At the end of the same year, it was announced that the cultural industry would be developed as a pillar industry for the national economy. China's film industry has achieved rapid growth in this condition. In 2012, the Chinese film industry showed exponential development. Total film box office revenue exceeded 17 billion Yuan. Film production and financing, and cinema investment and construction all rose to a new level, attracting substantial capital to this field. In essence, the Chinese film market has come to a golden age. Also, accompanied by film technology innovation and rapid growth of its viewer-base, the constitution of moviegoers and their viewing preferences and ways to receive information have all undergone significant changes compared with previous years. In this environment, series of challenges emerges, such as how to seize investment opportunities in the rapidly growing market, how to improve the competitiveness of domestic films and how to understand the tastes of audiences. To help companies in film industry get a comprehensive understanding about the status and features of the Chinese film industry, EntGroup presents the China Film Industry Report 2012-2013 based on in-depth research, analysis and interviews. The report is the fifth such annual report presented by EntGroup since 2009.

  • Rmb16.8Bn Asset Restructuring Plan Announced
    January 17, 2017 COMMENT Leshi Internet Information & Tech (300104.SZ) Rmb38.94 Equity Research Rmb16.8bn asset restructuring plan announced News LeTV announced on Jan 14 that the company has confirmed its asset restructuring plan of introducing strategic investors including Sunac China (1918.HK, covered by Vicky Li). According to the announcement, Sunac China will invest approximately Rmb15bn in LeTV and related companies. The remaining Rmb1.83bn investment is from two other investors. Analysis (1) Cash received: List-co: According to the terms of the deal, list-co will receive Rmb7.1bn: Rmb2.3bn from selling 10.40% of Leshi Zhixin (SuperTV subsidiary of list- co) and Rmb4.8bn from Leshi Zhixin issuing new shares. Post the deal, list-co’s stake in Leshi Zhixin would decrease from 58.55% to 40.31%. Non list-co: Non list-co will receive Rmb9.7bn in total. Jia Yueting, founder of LeTV, will receive Rmb6.0bn from selling 8.61% of LeTV. Leshi Holdings (controlled by Jia Yueting) will receive Rmb1.1bn from selling 15% of Le Vision Pictures. Lexin Asset, which is LeEco’s employee holding company, will receive Rmb2.6bn from selling 15.71% of Leshi Zhixin. (2) As stipulated by the terms of the contract, Jia Yueting needs to redeem 55% of his pledged shares within one year, which would require approximately Rmb4.7bn, according to our calculation. That would leave non list-co with Rmb5bn (9.7bn – 4.7bn) to solve its liquidity problem. (3) According to the company’s press conference on the deal, Le Vision Pictures will be injected into list-co by the end of 2017.

  • Zhang Zhao Chief Executive Officer Le Vision Pictures Zhang Zhao Has
    Zhang Zhao Chief Executive Officer Le Vision Pictures Zhang Zhao has had a long career in China-U.S. co-production and has founded two of China’s biggest private-sector studios. In 2012, The Hollywood Reporter called him the flagbearer for the “renaissance” of China’s film industry. Zhang graduated from Shanghai’s Fudan University with Bachelor of Science and Master of Philosophy degrees. In the early ‘90s, he earned a Master of Fine Arts in film production in the U.S. Zhang returned to China in 1996 and joined the Shanghai Film Group, where he worked on China-U.S. co-productions: the film Spacenapped and TV series Love Visa. In 2000, he joined the State Council Information Office, where he was oversaw co-productions with over a dozen U.S. television stations and a documentary on contemporary China. In 2003, Zhang was appointed Artistic Director of Enlight Media, China’s largest private entertainment group. He founded Enlight Pictures in 2006 and served as president. By 2010, Enlight Pictures had produced and distributed over 20 films and doubled its annual growth for four straight years. In 2011, the studio merged with Enlight Media, which became a publicly traded company in China. That year, Zhang left to set up Le Vision Pictures, becoming CEO and executive director. He inspired the industry term “Le Vision speed” because the studio produced six films in 2012, including The Bullet Vanishes, which received many award nominations in Asia. Le Vision participated in the production and handled the distribution of The Expendables 2, whose $54 million box office in China accounted for nearly 20% of the film’s global receipts.

Anne Kerlan, IHTP-CNRS, Paris Love and Duty (Lian’ai yu yiwu, Bu Wancang, 1931) belongs to those films that can make us believe in miracles. Considered lost for more than half a century, it was rediscovered fully intact far away from China, the country where it was produced in 1931 in the belongings of a former high-ranking officer in the Chinese Nationalist Army, who was for many the Republic of China’s consul in Uruguay. The third production of one of the main film company of China, the United Picture Service (U.P.S. or Lianhua yingye gongsi; thereafter U.P.S.), with two of the biggest stars of the early 1930’s playing in it, it is both a beautiful film and an important landmark in the history of the company and of Chinese cinema.
