Business Wire, June 14, 2005
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. -- Dragon Venture (Pink Sheets: DRGV), a holding company of high-tech companies in China, reports today that Shanghai Cnnest Technology Development Company, Limited ("Cnnest", http://www.cnnest.com), a subsidiary of DRGV, recently signed a partnership agreement with Tencent Holdings Limited ("Tencent"). Tencent, a member of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (stock symbol: 700), is a leading provider of Internet and mobile value-added services in China. The agreement outlines the services which include Wireless value-added services for China Mobile (NYSE: CHL), which boasts the world's largest unified, contiguous all-digital mobile network and the world's largest mobile subscriber base.
Under the terms of the agreement, Cnnest will coordinate with Tencent to provide Cnnest "Mobile Real Estate" to China Mobile's subscribers and Tencent's QQ customers. "Mobile Real Estate" is a primary component of the "Cnnest Model", which provides cutting-edge technology for applications involved in the buying and selling of real estate. China Mobile will provide Cnnest "Mobile Real Estate" as a service to its subscribers. The "Cnnest Model" will certainly initiate a new wave in the industry of real estate listings and transactions.
In addition, Cnnest recently signed an agreement with Tencent for their comprehensive cooperation in the fields of mobile Internet applications and business solutions such as BREW, KJAVA, WAP, and SMS.
Hidy Cheng, Vice President of Dragon Venture and General Manager of Cnnest, commented, "The partnerships will provide us a great opportunity to turn our research and development into a commercial success. It is absolutely another milestone in our company's history. Tencent offers a level of credibility as one of the first Internet Instant Messaging (IM) software developers in China, and a leading provider for Internet and mobile value-added services with a focus on IM and related value-added services. China Mobile is the leading mobile services provider in Mainland China. In 2004, the Company was once again selected as one of 'The World's 400 A-List Companies' by the internationally renowned business magazine Forbes and is the only Chinese company inducted into this A-List for three consecutive years. China Mobile's corporate credit rating was upgraded to BBB (equivalent to China's sovereign rating) by Standard and Poor's and A3 by Moody's in 2004. We believe Cnnest is going to be a leading firm in the field of mobile Internet solutions based on 3G technologies."
