EXHIBIT 99.1 DISCOVERY INVESTMENTS CONCLUDES ACQUISITION OF EVERGREEN ASSET GROUP Wednesday October 20, 3:18 pm ET HONG KONG--Oct. 20, 2004--Discovery Investments Inc. (OTCBB:DCIV) today announced the closing of the acquisition of Evergreen Asset Group Limited ("Evergreen"), a waste water treatment business located in the People's Republic of China. In order to reflect the new operational profile of the company, Discovery's name will be changed to "China Evergreen Environmental Corporation." In announcing the closing, Mr. Pu Chongliang, incoming President of Discovery, stated, "We are tremendously pleased that Evergreen has now become a public company in the United States. As the leading proponent of waste water treatment in China, we believe that harnessing the capital available from US markets will be of great importance in China's efforts to ensure appropriate levels of environmental control as China's industrial powerhouse continues to expand." Mr Pu continued, "As one of the pioneers in applying biotechnological processes to waste water treatment technologies in China, Evergreen has successfully completed the design and construction of over 11 waste water treatment facilities across China with an aggregate daily waste water treatment capacity of 120,000 cubic meters. This includes two BOT waste water facilities with daily waste water treatment capacity of an aggregate of 50,000 cubic meters. Our customers include municipal governments in China, food processing and beverage companies and industrial companies. "In addition to our operating facilities, Evergreen has a significant backlog of additional business and presently has under development three additional waste water treatment facilities with daily treatment capacity of an aggregate of 140,000 cubic meters. We expect to complete two facilities by the end of 2004 and another in July 2005," Mr Pu concluded. About Evergreen Asset Group Limited Evergreen Asset Group Limited was established in May 2004 as an investment holding company in the waste water treatment businesses in the People's Republic of China ("PRC"). Evergreen, through its four majority-owned subsidiaries (collectively the "Group"), provides waste water turn-key engineering, equipment and biotechnological product distribution, including its development, management and operation of five water treatment facilities through BOT arrangement (Build, Operate and Transfer) with the PRC government. The Group was established in 1999 by its Chairman, Mr. Pu Chongliang, to focus on developing innovative bio-chemical treatment technologies and processes for waste water treatment. The Group has successfully developed its own proprietary MHA Biological Treatment Process Technology ("MHA") and GM Bio-Carriers. The Group has successfully improved the efficiency and effectiveness of waste water treatment process by applying MHA and GM Bio-Carriers.
