For ease of reference, we have recited the Commission’s comments in this response and numbered them accordingly. An Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement on Form F-3 (“Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement”) is being filed to accompany this letter.

On the cover page, provide cross-references to these other discussions. In addition, to the extent you have cash management policies that dictate how funds are transferred between you and your subsidiaries, or investors, summarize the policies on your cover page and in the prospectus summary, and disclose the source of such policies (e.g., whether they are contractual in nature, pursuant to regulations, etc.); alternatively, state on the cover page and in the prospectus summary that you have no such cash management policies that dictate how funds are transferred.

We note your disclosure stating affirmatively that you have all requisite permissions or approvals; however, please also disclose each permission or approval that you or your subsidiaries are required to obtain from Chinese authorities to operate your business and to offer the securities being registered to foreign investors. In addition, we note your disclosure here that your PRC counsel has "confirmed" the permissions and approvals required from the CAC and CSRC. With respect to both permissions and approvals from the CAC and the CSRC, please clarify here and in your risk factor on page 29, if true, whether you have received an opinion of counsel from Beijing Dacheng Law Offices, LLP with respect to the discussed conclusions. If you have not relied upon an opinion of counsel with respect to your conclusions, state as much and explain why such an opinion was not obtained.

Summary of Risk Factors

Risks Related to Doing Business in China, page 18

7. We note your inclusion of risks that your corporate structure and being based in or having the majority of the company’s operations in China poses to investors. We also note the inclusion of cross-references to both this registration statement and your annual report on Form 20-F. However, it appears that all the cross-references to the risk factors in this registration statement point to page 25, where the Risks Related to Doing Business in China sub-section begins, rather than to the individual risks, like you have done for your cross-references to the 20-F. Please update the cross-references to the individual risk factors, rather than to the sub-section.

Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, we revised the cross-references on pages 18 to 21 of Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement to the individual risk factors rather than to the sub-section.

8. Where you discuss the risk that the Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which you must conduct your business, revise to also state that the Chinese government may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers.

Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, we revised our disclosure on the cover page and pages 14, 19 and 27 of Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement to state that the Chinese government may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers.

Dividends and other Distributions, page 22

9. Please move this discussion to a more prominent place in your prospectus summary, such as on pages 13-15 where you discuss the risks and uncertainties relating to your operations in China. Please also make conforming changes to this disclosure as you make on the cover page in response to comment 3.

Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, we moved the discussion of Dividends and other Distributions to a more prominent place in the prospectus summary section on page 15 of Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement. We also made conforming changes to the disclosure of Dividends and other Distributions as we made on the cover page of Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement in response to comment 3.

Risk Factors

The Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business, and may intervene or..., page 27

10. Given the significant oversight and discretion of the government of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) over the operations of your business, please describe any material impact that intervention or control by the PRC government has or may have on your business or on the value of your securities. We remind you that, pursuant to federal securities rules, the term “control” (including the terms “controlling,” “controlled by,” and “under common control with”) means “the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract, or otherwise.”

Response: In response to the Staff’s comment, we revised our disclosure on pages 27 and 28 of Amendment No. 1 to the Registration Statement under the risk factor titled “The Chinese government exerts substantial influence over the manner in which we must conduct our business, and may intervene or influence our operations at any time, or may exert more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers, which could result in a material change in our operations, significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and, and cause the value of our Ordinary Shares to significantly decline or be worthless” to discuss the material impact that intervention or control by the PRC government has or may have on our business or on the value of our securities.
