We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Shanghai Cheng Feng Digital High-tech Co., Ltd. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and 2004 and the related consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flows for each of the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Shanghai Cheng Feng Digital High-tech Co., Ltd. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Limited (“Shanghai Yiruida”). The Company’s interests in Jiangxi Cheng Feng and Cheng Feng Ounike and interests in certain available-for-sale investments were disposed of subsequent to the acquisition by CSST.

2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) |
Property and equipment are carried at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided over the assets' estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method. Estimated useful lives of the plant and equipment are as follows:
Building - offices | | 45 years | |
Leasehold improvements | | | 5 years | |
Plant and equipment | | | 5 years | |
Electronic equipment | | | 5 years | |
Motor vehicle | | | 5 years | |
The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold or otherwise retired are eliminated from the accounts and any gain or loss is included in the statement of income. The cost of maintenance and repairs is charged to the statement of income as incurred, whereas significant renewals and betterments are capitalized.
Intangible assets represent acquired patent rights and software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed, and are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 5 years.
| (e) | Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets |
The long-lived assets held and used by the Company are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of assets may not be recoverable. It is reasonably possible that these assets could become impaired as a result of technology or other industry changes. Determination of recoverability of assets to be held and used is by comparing the carrying amount of an asset to future net undiscounted cash flows to be generated by the assets. If such assets are considered to be impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value less costs to sell.
There were no impairments of long-lived assets as of June 30, 2006, December 31, 2005 and 2004.
| (f) | Accounting for computer software to be sold, leased or otherwise marketed |
The Company accounts for software development costs in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 86, “Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software to be Sold, Leased, or Otherwise Marketed”. Costs related to establishing the technological feasibility of a software product are expensed as incurred as a part of research and development in general and administrative expenses. Costs that are incurred to produce the finished product after technological feasibility is established are capitalized and amortized over the estimated economic life of 5 years. The Company performs periodic reviews to ensure that unamortized program costs remain recoverable from future revenue.

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost, determined on a weighted average basis, or net realizable value. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business less the estimated cost of completion and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
Write-downs for declines in net realizable value or for losses of inventories are recognized as an expense in the year the impairment or loss occurs. Declines in net realizable value of inventory for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, and the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 amounted to $Nil, $Nil, $5,412 and $Nil, respectively.
During the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, and the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, approximately 86%, 79%, 65% and 74% of total inventory purchases were from five suppliers, including the related party as set out in note 9.
Trade receivables are recognized and carried at the original invoice amount less allowance for any uncollectible amounts. An estimate for doubtful accounts is made when collection of the full amount is no longer probable.
During the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, and the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, approximately 16%, 18%, 16% and 10% of total sales were to five customers, including the related party as set out in note 9.
| (i) | Cash and Cash Equivalents |
The Company considers all highly liquid investments purchased with original maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Advances to suppliers represent the cash paid in advance for purchasing of inventory items from suppliers.
Customer advances represent cash received from customers as deposits/advance payments for purchasing of the Company’s products.
| (l) | Research and Development Costs |
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs included in general and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 and the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 amounted to $3,836, $44,015, $50,445 and $41,363 respectively.

| (m) | Investments in Equity Securities |
Investments in equity securities are designated as available-for-sale and are carried at fair value with unrealized gains or losses included as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income, net of applicable taxes. Individual securities are reduced to net realizable value by a charge to income for other than temporary declines in fair value. There was no impairment to the fair value of the investments in equity securities as of June 30, 2006, December 31, 2005 and 2004. All investments in equity securities were sold at their carrying amounts subsequent to June 30, 2006.
The Company advanced a loan to one of the investees for the period from November 2004 to November 2006 at an annual interest rate of 12%. Loan principal of $187,350 (RMB1.5 million) was included in the related party receivable at December 31, 2005 and 2004. During the six-month period ended June 30, 2006, the loan was converted to an investment in this investee entity.
| (n) | Investments in Affiliated Company |
If the Company has the ability to exert significant influence over the investee, the investments are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The Company’s proportionate share of income or losses from investments accounted for under the equity method, and any gain or loss on disposal, are recorded in equity in net income of affiliated companies in the consolidated statement of income.
| (o) | Fair Value of Financial Instruments |
The Company's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, related party receivables and payables, other receivables, taxes payable, accounts payable and other payables and the bank loan. Management has estimated that the carrying amounts of these non-related party instruments approximate their fair values due to their short-term maturities. The fair values of the related party receivables and payables are not practicable to estimate due to the related party nature of the underlining transactions.
Revenues from sales of security and surveillance equipment, including software and hardware, are recognized in accordance with Statement of Position (“SOP”) No. 97-2, Software Revenue Recognition, and Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) No. 104, Revenue Recognition, and related interpretations. The customer arrangements do not require significant production, modification or customization of software and do not contain services considered to be essential to the functionality of the software; revenues are recognized when the following four criteria are met:
| § | Persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists - The Company requires evidence of an agreement with a customer specifying the terms and conditions of the products to be delivered typically in the form of a signed contract or purchase order. |

| (p) | Revenue Recognition (continued) |
| § | Delivery has occurred - For product sales, delivery generally takes place when title to the products are shipped to or accepted by the customer. |
| § | The fee is fixed or determinable - Fees are fixed or determinable based on the contract or purchase order terms. |
| § | Collection is probable - The Company performs a credit review of all customers with significant transactions to determine whether a customer is creditworthy and collection is probable. |
Repairs and maintenance service revenue is recognized when the service is performed.
The sales contracts provide a one-year warranty period to the customers. As of June 30, 2006, December 2005 and 2004, the warranty reserve was zero as the historical costs for repairs in prior years were very minimal.
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. Advertising costs incurred in the six-month periods ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, and the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 totaled $53,600, $25,800, $46,800 and $57,600, respectively.
Retirement benefits in the form of contributions under a defined contribution retirement plan to the relevant authorities are charged to the consolidated statements of income as incurred. The retirement benefit expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2006, 2005, and the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 were $13,515, $15,948, $30,240 and $26,786, respectively and are included in general and administrative expenses.
| (s) | Foreign Currency Translation |
The functional currency of the Company is the RMB and the RMB is not freely convertible into foreign currencies. The Company maintains its financial statements in the functional currency. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at rates of exchange prevailing at the balance sheet date. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transactions. Exchange gains or losses arising from foreign currency transactions are included in the determination of net income for the respective periods.
For financial reporting purposes, the financial statements of the Company, which are prepared using the functional currency, have been translated into United States dollars. Assets and liabilities are translated at exchange rates at the balance sheet dates and revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates, and shareholders' equity is translated at historical exchange rates. Any resulting translation adjustments are not included in determining net income but are included as foreign exchange adjustment in other comprehensive income, a component of shareholders' equity. The exchange rates adopted are as follows:

The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. Management makes these estimates using the best information available at the time the estimates are made; however actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Deferred income taxes reflect the effect of temporary differences between assets and liabilities that are recognized for financial reporting purposes and the amounts that are recognized for income tax purposes. In accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes," these deferred taxes are measured by applying current rates.
Assets to be disposed of that meet all of the criteria to be classified as held for sale as set forth in SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”, are reported at the lower of their carrying amounts or fair values less cost to sell. Assets are not depreciated while they are classified as held for sale. Assets held for sale that have operations and cash flows that can be clearly distinguished, operationally and for financial reporting purposes, from the rest of the Company’s assets are reported in discontinued operations when (a) it is determined that the operations and cash flows of the assets will be eliminated from the Company’s on-going operations and (b) the Company will not have any significant continuing involvement in the operations of the assets after the disposal transaction.
As set out in note 1 above, the Company’s interests in Jiangxi Cheng Feng and Cheng Feng Ounike and interests in available-for-sale investments were not transferred to CSST in accordance with the share transfer framework agreement. The assets and liabilities of Cheng Feng Qunike were sold to the minority stockholders at original cost in September 2006. The Company also applied for deregistration of Jiangxi Cheng Feng, which was approved by the local government in December 2006. The assets and liabilities of these two entities are classified as assets held for sale and liabilities related to assets held for sale at June 30, 2006. Jiangxi Cheng Feng has had no business activities since its incorporation; therefore, there were no results of operations or gains or losses on the disposal of the assets as discontinued operations. The Company’s 51% interest in Chengfeng Ounike was acquired in March 2006 and was sold for RMB 440,000 (approximately US$55,000) in September 2006. The operating loss of $44,320 for the period from March 2006 through June 2006 is shown as a loss from discontinued operations.

2. | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED) |
| (w) | Recent Accounting Pronouncements |
In February 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued SFAS No. 155, "Accounting for Certain Hybrid Financial Instruments." SFAS No. 155 amends SFAS No. 133 and 140. The statement applies to certain hybrid financial instruments, which are instruments that contain embedded derivatives. The new standard establishes a requirement to evaluate beneficial interests in securitized financial assets to determine if the interests represent freestanding derivatives or are hybrid financial instruments containing embedded derivatives requiring bifurcation. This new standard also permits an election for fair value re-measurement of any hybrid financial instrument containing an embedded derivative that otherwise would require bifurcation under SFAS No. 133. The fair value election can be applied on an instrument-by-instrument basis to existing instruments at the date of adoption and can be applied to new instruments on a prospective basis. SFAS No. 155 shall be effective for all financial instruments acquired, issued, or subject to a remeasurement (new basis) event occurring after the beginning of first fiscal year that begins after September 15, 2006. It is not expected that SFAS No. 155 will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In June 2006, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation Number 48 (FIN 48), “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes—an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109.” This interpretation contains a two step approach to recognizing and measuring uncertain tax positions accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 109. The first step is to evaluate the tax position for recognition by determining if the weight of available evidence indicates it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained on audit, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. The second step is to measure the tax benefit as the largest amount which is more than 50% likely of being realized upon ultimate settlement. The provisions are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006. It is not expected that FIN 48 will have a material effect on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.
In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosure about fair value measurements. The statement clarifies that the exchange price is the price in an orderly transaction between market participants to sell the asset or transfer the liability in the market in which the reporting entity would transact for the asset or liability, that is, the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability. It also emphasizes that fair value is a market-based measurement, not an entity-specific measurement, and that market participant assumptions include assumptions about risk and effect of a restriction on the sale or use of an asset. The provisions are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the statement.
The Company provides an allowance for doubtful accounts related to its receivables. The receivable and allowance balances at June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005 and 2004 are as follows:
| | 2006 | | | 2005 | | | 2004 | |

7. | INVESTMENTS IN AFILIATED COMPANY |
In September 2005, the Company transferred a portion of its capital stock of Shanghai Yiruida to certain potential employees at no consideration to attract these skilled technicians to join Shanghai Yiruida. As a result of the transfer, the Company’s interest in Shanghai Yiruida decreased from 55% to 39.5% and the Company no longer has control but has the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies of Shanghai Yiruida. Subsequent to the transfer, the Company has no longer consolidated the net assets of Shanghai Yiruida. Instead, the Company has used the equity method to account for its 39.5% interest in Shanghai Yiruida. In June 2006, total additional capital of RMB 500,000 ($62,450) was contributed to this entity, of which the Company contributed RMB 152,500 ($19,047). Upon the capital contribution, the Company’s interest in the entity was reduced to 36.5%.
At June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2005, the Company's investment in Shanghai Yiruida was $7,019 and $13,339, respectively. Financial information of Shanghai Yiruida as of June 30, 2006 and December 31, 2006, and for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and for the four months ended December 31, 2005 is as follows:

| (b) | Related party receivables and payables |
The Company has receivables and payables from several companies which were corporate shareholders of the Company and its subsidiary and holding company of the Company’s corporate shareholder (prior to its acquisition by CSST) and also has receivables from its affiliated company. These receivables and payables are unsecured, interest free and have no fixed repayment terms. However, the Company estimates that these receivables and payables should be settled within one year and hence they are classified as current assets and liabilities. During the six months ended June 30, 2006, the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, no allowance for doubtful debts has been made for these related party receivables.
| (a) | Corporation Income Tax (“CIT”) |
CSST is governed by the Income Tax Laws of the PRC. The PRC federal statutory tax rate is 30% and the local tax rate is 3%. During the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, and the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, only the parent company and one of its subsidiaries had operating income subject to CIT. Being a “software” company, the parent company is exempt from income taxes for a period of two years commencing from its first profitable year (2002) and is entitled to a preferential income tax rate of 15% for three consecutive years commencing from its third profitable year (2004). Being a “high-tech” company, it is also entitled to a 50% tax rate reduction upon approval by the PRC tax authority. This tax rate reduction has to be approved by the PRC tax authority each year. As of June 30, 2006 and 2005, this tax rate reduction had not been approved. As a result, the parent company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, and the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 was 15%, 15%, 7.5% and 7.5%, respectively. The subsidiary, which had operating income for these periods, is a “high-tech” company; therefore, its effective tax rate is 33% for the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005 and 15% for the years ended 2005 and 2004. In addition, all local taxes are exempt for software and foreign companies. All other subsidiaries do not have such tax exemptions. They had no business activities and operating income during the six months ended June 30, 2006 and 2005, and the years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004. Beginning 2007, the Company became a foreign company and will be entitled to the same tax benefit as described above for a software company.

The VAT refundable balance was $73,219 as of June 30, 2006 and VAT payable balance was $57,571 and $14,049 as of December 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively.
11. | ADVANCES TO SUPPLIERS |
