What is the difference between holding sharesConsideration Recipients as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

Stockholder of Record.    If your shares are registered directlydefined in your name with our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Co., you are considered,“Proposal One” with respect to those shares, the “stockholderProposal One (See “Proposal One — Vote Required”). Each share of record.” This proxy and our 2020 Annual Report have been sent directly to you by us.

Beneficial Owner.    If your shares are held in acommon stock brokerage account or by a bank or other nominee, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in street name. This proxy and the 2020 Annual Report have been forwarded to you by your broker, bank or nominee who is considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or nominee how to vote your shares by using the voting instructions included with your proxy materials.

How do I vote my shares?

Stockholders can vote in person at the Meeting or by proxy. There are two ways to vote by proxy:

•        By Internet — You can vote over the Internet by going to www.cstproxyvote.com and following the instructions to vote your shares; or

•        By Mail — You can vote by mail by signing, dating and mailing the enclosed proxy card.

Internet voting facilities for stockholders of record will be available 24 hours a day and will close at 8:59 p.m. (EST) on December 30, 2021. Have your proxy card in hand when you access the website and follow the instructions to vote your shares.

If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other holder of record, you will receive instructions fromentitles the holder of record. You must follow the instructions of the holder of record in order for your shares to be voted. Internet voting also will be offered to stockholders owning shares through certain banks and brokers. If your shares are not registered in your own name and you plan to vote your shares in person at the Meeting, you should contact your broker or agent to obtain a legal proxy or broker’s proxy card and bring it to the Meeting in order toone vote.

If you vote by proxy, the individuals named on the proxy card (your “proxies”) will vote your shares in the manner you indicate. You may specify how your shares should be voted for each of the proposals. If you grant a proxy without indicating your instructions, your shares will be voted as follows:

What constitutes a quorum?

According to the Company’s Bylaws, the presence in person or by proxy of the holders of one-third (1/3rd) of the shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote shall be necessary and sufficient to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business except as otherwise provided by law. Under Nevada law, an abstaining vote and a broker “non-vote” are counted as present and are, therefore, included for purposes of determining whether a quorum of shares is present at the Meeting.

What is a broker “non-vote” and what is its effect on voting?

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and do not provide the organization that holds your shares with specific voting instructions, under the rules of various national and regional securities exchanges, the organization that holds your shares may generally vote on routine matters but cannot vote on non-routine matters. If the organization that holds your shares does not receive instructions from you on how to vote your shares on a non-routine matter, the organization that holds your shares does not have the authority to vote on the matter with respect to those shares. This is generally referred to as a “broker non-vote.”

What is required to approve each item?

•        For Proposal No. 1 (election of directors), each director must be elected by a plurality of the votes cast by the stockholders present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted for purposes of the election of directors.

2

•        For Proposal No. 2 (the advisory vote on executive compensation), and Proposal No. 3 (the ratification of independent auditor), the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the stockholders’ shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote, is required.

•        For any other matters on which stockholders are entitled to vote, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the stockholders’ shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote, is required.

For the purpose of determining whether the stockholders have approved matters other than the election of directors, abstentions are treated as shares present or represented and voting, so abstaining has the same effect as a negative vote. If stockholders hold their shares through a broker, bank or other nominee and do not instruct them how to vote, the broker may have authority to vote the shares for routine matters.

Stockholders may not cumulate votes in the election of directors, which means that each stockholder may vote no more than the number of shares he or she owns for a single director candidate.

Our Bylaws require that, in uncontested elections, each director be elected by the majority of votes cast with respect to such director. This means that the number of shares voted “for” a director nominee must exceed the number of votes “withheld” from that nominee in order for that nominee to be elected. Only votes “for” or “withheld” are counted as votes cast with respect to a director. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect.

How will shares of Common Stock represented by properly executed proxies be voted?

All shares of Common Stock represented by proper proxies will, unless such proxies have previously been revoked, be voted in accordance with the instructions indicated in such proxies. If you do not provide voting instructions, your shares will be voted in accordance with the Board’s recommendations as set forth herein. In addition, if any other matters properly come before the Meeting, the persons named in the enclosed proxy, or their duly appointed substitute acting at the Meeting, will be authorized to vote or otherwise act on those matters in accordance with their judgment.

Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?

Any stockholder executing a proxy has the power to revoke such proxy at any time prior to its exercise. You may revoke your proxy prior to exercise by:

•        filing with us a written notice of revocation of your proxy,

•        submitting a properly signed proxy card bearing a later date,

•        voting over the Internet, or

•        voting in person at the Meeting.

What does it mean if I receive more than one Proxy?

If your shares are registered under different names or are in more than one account, you may receive more than one set of proxy materials. To ensure that all your shares are voted, please vote through the Internet using each personal identification number you are provided, or complete, sign and date the multiple proxy cards relating to your multiple accounts. We encourage you whenever possible to have all accounts registered in the same name and address. You can accomplish this by contacting our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Co., at (212) 845-3294.

Who paid for this proxy solicitation?

The cost of preparing, printing, assembling and mailing this proxy statement and other material furnished to stockholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies is borne by us.

How do I learn thePreliminary results of the voting at the annual meeting?

Preliminary results will be announced at the Special Meeting. Final results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC within four business days of the Special Meeting.

Quorum

In order for any business to be conducted at the Special Meeting, the holders of one-third (1/3rd) in voting power of the shares of our capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person, present by means of remote communication in a manner, if any, authorized by the Board in its sole discretion, or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. If a quorum is not present at the scheduled time of the Special Meeting, the stockholders present or represented at the meeting and entitled to vote thereon, although less than a quorum, may adjourn the Special Meeting until a quorum is present. The time and place of the adjourned Special Meeting will be announced at the time the adjournment is taken, and no other notice will be given unless the adjournment is for more than 30 days, in which case a notice of the adjourned meeting will be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. An adjournment will have no effect on the business that may be conducted at the Special Meeting.

Required Vote for Approval

At the Special Meeting, our stockholders will vote on the following proposals:

1.      Approval, for the purpose of complying with the Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635, the issuance of 7,680,000shares of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement dated April 14, 2022 (“Proposal One”). This proposal requires the affirmative (“FOR”) vote of a majority of votes cast by shares present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting. However, in accordance with applicable Nasdaq guidance, any votes cast FOR this proposal attributable to the Consideration Recipients as defined in “Proposal One”, will be disregarded for purposes of determining whether this proposal is approved.

1

2.      Approval of the adjournment of the Special Meeting for any purpose, including to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the proposal described above (“Proposal Two”). This proposal requires the affirmative (“FOR”) vote of a majority of votes cast by the shares present or represented by proxy and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting.

The Board unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the approval of each of the proposals.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of election appointed for the Special Meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes, abstentions and broker non-votes. An abstention is the voluntary act of not voting by a stockholder who is present at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote. A broker “non-vote” occurs when a broker nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary power for that particular item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a broker or other nominee, your broker or nominee may not be permitted to exercise voting discretion with respect to some of the matters to be acted upon at the Special Meeting. If you do not give your broker or nominee specific instructions regarding such matters, your proxy will be deemed a “broker non-vote.”

The question of whether your broker or nominee may be permitted to exercise voting discretion with respect to a particular matter depends on whether the particular proposal is deemed to be a “routine” matter and how your broker or nominee exercises any discretion they may have in the voting of the shares that you beneficially own. Brokers and nominees can use their discretion to vote “uninstructed” shares with respect to matters that are considered to be “routine,” but not with respect to “non-routine” matters. Under the rules and interpretations of the New York Stock Exchange, “non-routine” matters are matters that may substantially affect the rights or privileges of stockholder, such as mergers, stockholder proposals, elections of directors (even if not contested), executive compensation (including any advisory stockholder votes on executive compensation and on the frequency of stockholder votes on executive compensation), and certain corporate governance proposals, even if management-supported.

For any proposal that is considered a “routine” matter, your broker or nominee may vote your shares in its discretion either for or against the proposal even in the absence of your instruction. For any proposal that is considered a “non-routine” matter for which you do not give your broker instructions, the shares will be treated as broker non-votes. “Broker non-votes” occur when a beneficial owner of shares held in street name does not give instructions to the broker or nominee holding the shares as to how to vote on matters deemed “non-routine.” Broker non-votes will not be considered to be shares “entitled to vote” on any “non-routine” matter and therefore will not be counted as having been voted on the applicable proposal. Therefore, if you are a beneficial owner and want to ensure that shares you beneficially own are voted in favor or against any or all of the proposals in this proxy statement, the only way you can do so is to give your broker or nominee specific instructions as to how the shares are to be voted.

Under Nevada law and our Amended and Restated Bylaws, abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted as votes cast on an item and therefore will not affect the outcome of any proposal presented in this proxy statement. Abstention and broker non-votes, if any, will be counted for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum present at the Special Meeting.

Note that if you are a beneficial holder and do not provide specific voting instructions to your broker, the broker that holds your shares will not be authorized to vote on the approval the Proposal One because it is considered a non-routine matter.

Approval of Proposal Two is considered to be a routine matter and, accordingly, if you do not instruct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote the shares in your account for Proposal Two, brokers will be permitted to exercise their discretionary authority to vote for the approval of such proposal.

Accordingly, we encourage you to provide voting instructions to your broker, whether or not you plan to attend the Special Meeting.

SMALLER REPORTING COMPANY AND EMERGING GROWTH COMPANY

We are an “emerging growth company” under federal securities laws and therefore permitted to take advantage of certain reduced public company reporting requirements. As an emerging growth company, we provide certain of the scaled disclosure permitted under the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, including the compensation disclosures required of a “smaller reporting company,” as that term is defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). In addition, we are not required to conduct votes seeking approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers and are subject to no requirements regarding the frequency with which such votes must be conducted. Nevertheless, we voluntarily elected to conduct such a vote at the 2018 Annual Meeting and shareholders approved holding the vote on the compensation of our named executive officers every three years and such frequency was adopted by the Board. We will cease to be an emerging growth company, and, therefore, become ineligible to rely on the above exemptions, if we (a) have more than $1 billion in annual revenue in a fiscal year, (b) issue more than $1 billion of non-convertible debt over a three-year period or (c) become a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur after: (i) we have filed at least one annual report; (ii) we have been an SEC-reporting company for at least 12 months; and (iii) the market value of our common stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter.

We are also a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act, and have elected to take advantage of certain of the scaled disclosure available for smaller reporting companies.

Mr. Lin is the founder and President of Wuge Network Games Co., Ltd., a PRC company contractually(the “Target” or “Yuan Ma”), and all the shareholders of Yuan Ma (“Consideration Recipients”). Consideration Recipients are Wei Xu, who is the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of the Company, and Jiangsu Lingkong Network Joint Stock Co., Ltd. (“Jiangsu Lingkong”), which is controlled by Wei Xu.

Pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, we agreed to issue an aggregate of 7,680,000 shares of common stock of the Company (the “CCNC Shares”), valued at $1.00 per share, to the Consideration Recipients, in exchange for Consideration Recipients’ agreement to enter into and to cause Yuan Ma to enter into certain agreements (“VIE Agreements”) with Makesi IoT Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd. (“WFOE”), the Company’s indirectly owned subsidiary, to establish a VIE (variable interest entity) structure (the “Acquisition”). Through the VIE Agreements, WFOE will receive the economic benefits of Yuan Ma and, for accounting purposes, the Company will consolidate the financial results of Yuan Ma in the consolidated financial statements under generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (U.S. GAAP). The Company has also agreed to hold a special meeting of the stockholders of the Company as soon as possible in connection with the issuance of the CCNC Shares and the closing of the Acquisition is conditioned on such approval of the stockholders of the Company.

Additionally, on April 14, 2022, Wei Xu and Jiangsu Lingkong entered into an assignment agreement (the “Assignment Agreement”) under which, for nominal consideration, Jiangsu Lingkong assigned to Wei Xu its right to receive 3,271,680 shares of CCNC’s common stock issuable by the Company to Jiangsu Lingkong under the Share Purchase Agreement. As a result, Wei Xu will receive all the CCNC Shares issuable under the Share Purchase Agreement.

The CCNC Shares, if issued, will be restricted securities (as such term is defined for purposes of Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended). If and to the extent we issue any CCNC Shares, such shares will be the same class of common stock that develops gameswe have listed on Nasdaq under the trading symbol “CCNC.” Any issuance of the CCNC Shares will dilute the beneficial ownership of all of our current stockholders.

On April 14, 2022, we filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (“Form 8-K”) with the SEC regarding the terms of the Share Purchase Agreement. Please see the Form 8-K for a further description of the Acquisition.

Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(e)(3) defines a substantial stockholder as the holder of an interest of 5% or more of either the number of shares of common stock or the voting power outstanding of a Nasdaq-listed company.

In addition, Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b) requires stockholder approval prior to the issuance of securities when the issuance or potential issuance will result in a “change of control” of the company. This rule does not define when a change in control of a company may be deemed to occur; however, Nasdaq suggests in its guidance that a change of control would occur, subject to certain limited exceptions, if after a transaction a person or entity will hold 20% or more of the outstanding shares of common stock or voting power of an issuer and such ownership or voting power of an issuer would represent the largest ownership position in the issuer. Our stockholders should note that a “change of control” for purposes of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b) applies only with respect to the application software. From February 2015of such rule and does not constitute a “change of control” for purposes of Nevada law, our organizational documents, U.S. income tax laws or any other purpose.

PROPOSAL TWO: ADJOURNMENT

In the Board that currently consists of seven members as identified above. Currently, the Board has three committees: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee.

Each of these committees is comprised entirely of independent directors. From time to time, the Board may establish other committees. The Board has adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee and the Compensation Committee.

Prior to establishing the committees of the Board of Directors, our entire Board of Directors handled the functions that would otherwise be handled by each of the committees.

The Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

The Board overseesevent that the assetsnumber of shares of common stock present or represented by proxy at the Company are properly safeguarded, thatSpecial Meeting and voting “FOR” the appropriate financial and other controls are maintained, and that the Company’s business is conducted wisely and in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and proper governance. Included in these responsibilities is the Board’s oversight of the various risks facing the Company. In this regard, the Board seeks to understand and oversee critical business risks. The Board does not view risk in isolation. Risks are considered in virtually every business decision and as part of the Company’s business strategy. The Board recognizes that it is neither possible nor prudent to eliminate all risk. Indeed, purposeful and appropriate risk-taking is essential for the Company to be competitive on a global basis and to achieve its objectives.

While the Board oversees risk management, the management are charged with managing risk. The Company has internal processes and a strong internal control environment to identify and manage risks and to communicate with the Board. The Board and the Audit Committee monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the internal controls and the risk management program at least annually. The Board implements its risk oversight function both as a whole and through Committees. Much of the work is delegated to various Committees, which meet regularly and report back to the full Board. All Committees play significant roles in carrying out the risk oversight function which is described in more details below.

with respect to the independence of Audit Committee members. The Nasdaq listing standards define an “independent director” generally as a person, other than an officer of a company, who does not have a relationship with the company that would interfere with the director’s exercise of independent judgment. Four of our directors, Mr. Mingyue Cai, Mr. Chengwei Mo, Mr. Fei Gan, and Mr. Siyang Hu are “independent” as that term is defined by Nasdaq Rule 4200(a)(15); accordingly, we satisfy the “independent director” requirements, which requires that a majority of a company’s directors be independent.
