Item 1A. Risk Factors. An investment in MGSD’s common stock involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the following risk factors and other information before deciding to invest in MGSD’s common stock. If any of the following risks are actually realized, the Company business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects for growth could be seriously harmed. As a result, the trading price of MGSD’s common stock could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. 6 Risks Related to Our Business A computer system failure, security breach or a breach of data privacy or security obligations may disrupt our business, damage our reputation and adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. We will rely on computer and information systems and internet and network connectivity to conduct a large portion of our business operations. This includes the need to securely store, process and transmit confidential information, including personal information. In many cases this also includes transmission and processing to or through commercial customers, business partners and third-party service providers. The introduction of new technologies, computer system failures, cyber-crime attacks or security or privacy breaches may materially disrupt our business operations, damage our reputation, result in regulatory and litigation exposure, investigation and remediation costs, and materially and adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. The information security risk that we face includes the risk of malicious outside forces using public networks and other methods, including social engineering and the exploitation of targeted offline processes, to attack our systems and information. It also includes inside threats, both malicious and accidental. For example, human error and lack of sufficiently automated processing can result in improper information exposure or use. We also face risk in this area due to our reliance in many cases on third-party systems, all of which may face cyber and information security risks of their own. Third-party administrators or distribution partners used by us or our subsidiaries may not adequately secure their own information systems and networks, or may not adequately keep pace with the dynamic changes in this area. Potential bad actors that target us and our applicable third parties may include, but are not limited to, criminal organizations, foreign government bodies, political factions, and others. There is no guarantee that the measures that we take will be sufficient to stop all types of attacks or mitigate all types of information security or privacy risks. If we fail to maintain adequate processes and controls or if we or our business partners fail to comply with relevant laws and regulations, policies and procedures, misappropriation or intentional or unintentional inappropriate disclosure or misuse of personal information or other confidential information could occur. Such control inadequacies or non-compliance could cause disrupted operations and misstated or unreliable financial data, materially damage our reputation or lead to increased regulatory scrutiny or civil or criminal penalties or litigation, which, in turn, could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, we analyse personal information and customer data to better manage our business, subject to applicable laws and regulations and other restrictions. It is possible that additional regulatory or other restrictions regarding the use of such techniques may be imposed. Such restrictions and obligations could have material impacts on our business, financial conditions and/or results of operations. We operate in a competitive environment and competing facilities and services could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects. There are numerous cultural tourism service providers, arts exposition providers and distributors of Chinese cultural and creative products and gift products. We will face significant competition from these three types of competitors. The private cultural tourism market is further segmented into large franchise companies, regional providers and numerous local independent service providers located in nearly every city in China. We will compete primarily on the basis of price, quality of service, convenience, location, brand recognition and reputation. We do not have the same level of brand recognition as some of the cultural tourism companies, and in some regional markets our brand is not as established and our geographical coverage is not as extensive as that of our private competitors. 7 We may not be able to effectively control and manage our planned growth. We have limited operational, administrative and financial resources, which may be inadequate to sustain the growth we want to achieve. If our business and markets grow and develop, it will be necessary for us to finance and manage expansion accordingly. In addition, we may face challenges in managing our expanding service offerings. Such growth would place increased demands on our existing management, employees and facilities. Our failure to meet these demands could interrupt or adversely affect our operations and cause administrative inefficiencies. Additionally, failure to execute our planned growth strategy could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operation. Additional capital may not be available on acceptable terms, and any additional financing may be on terms adverse to your interests. We will need additional cash to fund the expansion of Tongzhilian’s operations. Our capital needs will depend on numerous factors, including market conditions and our profitability. We cannot be certain that we will be able to obtain additional financing on favorable terms, if at all. If additional financing is not available when required or is not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to fund expansion, successfully promote our brand name, develop or enhance our services, take advantage of business opportunities, or respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements, any of which failures could seriously harm our business and reduce the value of your investment. If we are able to raise additional funds when needed by issuing additional equity securities, you may experience significant dilution of your ownership interest and holders of these new securities may have rights senior to yours as a holder of our common stock. If we obtain additional financing by issuing debt securities, the terms of those securities could restrict or prevent us from declaring dividends and could limit our flexibility in making business decisions. In this case, the value of your investment could be reduced. There is no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional funding when it is needed, or that such funding, if available, will be obtained on terms and conditions favorable to or affordable by us. If we cannot obtain needed funds, we may be forced to curtail our activities 8 Risks Relating to our Management The loss of the services of either of our officers or our failure to timely identify and retain competent personnel could negatively impact our ability to develop our products and sales. The business plan of Tongzhilian assumes the ability of Tongzhilian to exploit the relationships that our CEO, Huang Fang, has developed with participants in the cultural tourism industry. Our future success, therefore, depends upon the continued services of our executive officers, Huang Fang and our Chief Financial Officer, Shang Jia. The loss of the services of either of our officers or our failure to timely identify and retain competent executives could negatively impact our ability to develop our business, which could adversely affect our financial results and impair our growth. Going forward, the success of our business will depend on our ability to identify and retain competent employees with the skills required to execute our business objectives. Competition for such qualified employees is intense. If we do not succeed in attracting excellent personnel or in retaining or motivating them, we may be unable to grow effectively. In addition, all future success depends largely on our ability to retain key consultants and advisors. We cannot assure that any skilled individual will agree to become an employee, consultant, or independent contractor of Tongzhilian. Our inability to retain their services could negatively impact our business and our ability to execute our business strategy. Our internal controls over financial reporting may not be effective and our independent registered public accounting firm may not be able to certify as to their effectiveness, which could have a significant and adverse effect on our business and reputation. As a new public reporting company, we will be in a continuing process of developing, establishing, and maintaining internal controls and procedures that will allow our management to report on, and our independent registered public accounting firm to attest to, our internal controls over financial reporting if and when required to do so under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Although our independent registered public accounting firm is not required to attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act until the date we are no longer a smaller reporting company, our management will be required to report on our internal controls over financial reporting under Section 404. If we fail to achieve and maintain the adequacy of our internal controls, we would not be able to conclude on an ongoing basis that we have effective internal controls over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404. At such time, our independent registered public accounting firm may issue a report that is adverse in the event it is not satisfied with the level at which our controls are documented, designed or operating. Moreover, our testing, or the subsequent testing by our independent registered public accounting firm, may reveal other material weaknesses or that the known material weaknesses have not been fully remediated. If we do not remediate material weaknesses or we are not able to comply with the requirements of Section 404 in a timely manner, our reported financial results could be materially misstated or could subsequently require restatement, we could receive an adverse opinion regarding our internal controls over financial reporting from our independent registered public accounting firm and we could be subject to investigations or sanctions by regulatory authorities, which would require additional financial and management resources, and the market price of our stock could decline. 9 Our lack of an independent audit committee and audit committee financial expert at this time may hinder our board of directors’ effectiveness in monitoring the Company’s compliance with its disclosure and accounting obligations. Until we establish such a committee, we will be unable to obtain a listing on a national securities exchange. Although our common stock is not listed on any national securities exchange, for purposes of independence we use the definition of independence applied by NASDAQ. Currently, we have no independent audit committee. Our full board of directors function as our audit committee and is comprised of a single director. An independent audit committee would play a crucial role in the corporate governance process, assessing our Company’s processes relating to our risks and control environment, overseeing financial reporting, and evaluating internal and independent audit processes. The lack of an independent audit committee may deprive the Company of management’s independent judgment. We may, however, have difficulty attracting and retaining independent directors with the requisite qualifications. If we are unable to attract and retain qualified, independent directors, the management of our business could be compromised. An independent audit committee is required for listing on any national securities exchange. Therefore, until such time as we meet the audit committee independence requirements of a national securities exchange, we will be ineligible for listing on any national securities exchange. Our board of directors acts as our compensation committee, which presents the risk that compensation and benefits paid to those executive officers who are board members and other officers may not be commensurate with our financial performance. A compensation committee consisting of independent directors is a safeguard against self-dealing by company executives. Our board of directors, which has a single director and no independent members, acts as the compensation committee for the Company and determines the compensation and benefits of our executive officers, will administer our employee stock and benefit plans, and reviews policies relating to the compensation and benefits of our employees. Our lack of an independent compensation committee presents the risk that an executive officer on the board may have influence over his or her personal compensation and may obtain benefits levels that may not be commensurate with our financial performance. Our management has no experience managing a public company. At the present time, none of our management has experience in managing a public company. This may hinder our ability to establish effective controls and systems and comply with all applicable requirements associated with being a public company. If compliance problems result, these problems could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations. As a public company, we will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that we did not incur as a private company. For example, we expect it will be difficult and expensive for us to obtain director and officer liability insurance. These requirements could also make it more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors, our board committees or as executive officers. We may have difficulty establishing adequate management, legal and financial controls in the PRC. We may have difficulty in hiring and retaining in the PRC a sufficient number of employees with the skills necessary to manage a U.S. public company. As a result, we may experience difficulty in establishing management, legal and financial controls, collecting financial data and preparing financial statements, books of account and corporate records and instituting business practices that meet western standards. Therefore, we may, in turn, experience difficulties in implementing and maintaining adequate internal controls as will be required under Section 404 of the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002. 10 Risks Related to Doing Business in the PRC The operations of our subsidiary in China, as well as our financial operations in the U.S. to the extent that they affect our subsidiary in China, will be subject to a high level of control by the national and provincial bureaucracies in the PRC. Exercise by government authorities of that control could significantly interfere with our ability to conduct our operations in the best interests of our company and its shareholders, which could cause the value of our common stock to decline and limit or prevent our efforts to finance the operations of Tongzhilian. The government of the PRC is highly bureaucratized, as are the provincial governments in China. Whereas the authority of agencies in the U.S. government is restricted to a stated mandate by principles and regulations of administrative law, agencies of the PRC government have broad authority to impose and administer regulations, and to collect information, as they deem in the best interests of the nation. As a result, our Company’s Board of Directors may find its ability to develop and implement a business plan constrained by the regulatory activities of government agencies in the PRC, which are able to exert substantial and wide-ranging control over our Company’s operations, both those of Tongzhilian, our Chinese subsidiary, and the financial operations of MGSD. The P RC agencies that will exercise have significant control over our Company’s operations include: ● China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”), which since March 2023 has imposed extensive reporting requirements and other regulations on companies structured as ours: offshore holding companies with operations based in China. The CSRC now requires that such companies obtain pre-approval of offshore securities listings and offshore securities offerings, and the CSRC, in reviewing such filings, has broad discretion to limit or prevent offshore financing activities that CSRC believes put the interests of China at risk, including risks attendant to indirect offshore investment in companies that control significant data, personal or otherwise, and companies involved in a wide range of industries that CSRC deems essential to the PRC. ● State Administration of Foreign Exchange (“SAFE”), which governs inflows and outflows of capital with respect to the PRC, and has broad authority to regulate or restrict, by registration requirements or prohibitions, cross-border transactions and currency exchange as needed to protect the interests of the PRC. ● Cyberspace Administration of China (“CAC”), which has broad authority to regulate conduct within the PRC and offshore as it relates to cyberspace activities touching on the PRC. Among the proposed regulations under review by the CAC are a requirement that China-based enterprises holding significant user data be required to undergo review and approval by CAC before soliciting offshore investment. ● Ministry of Commerce (“MOFCOM”), which has broad regulatory authority over commercial activity in the PRC, with particular focus on foreign-invested commercial activity. Among MOFCOM’s activities is reviewing offshore investments in Chinese enterprises to assure the capital is used for purposes that fall within the pre-approved business plan of the Chinese recipient. Investors considering investment in MGSD, therefore, should understand that the control of our Board of Directors over the plans and operations of our Company will be subject to the extensive control that the government of China may exercise over both Tongzhilian, our Chinese subsidiary, and the activities of its U.S. parent company as they involve Tongzhilian. Our Board may find, at times, that actions it considers in the best interests of our Company and its shareholders are restricted or prevented by policies of one or more Chinese government agencies. These restrictions, in turn, may make our public securities less valuable and interfere with our efforts to raise capital for the operations of Tongzhilian. 11 The government of China will make a direct intervention into the operations of a China-based company and take control of its operations or significantly restrict its operations if the government believes such action is in the best interests of the Chinese nation. The Chinese government may intervene or influence our operations at any time, or may exert control over operations of our business, which could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our securities. Any actions by the Chinese government to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless. The government of the PRC is not bound by principles of substantive due process similar to those binding on the U.S. government. Therefore, the government of the PRC considers itself charged with unrestricted responsibility for the well-being of its nation, and will intervene in the economy of the PRC in general or in the affairs of an individual enterprise within the PRC, as it deems appropriate to protect the well-being of the PRC. Such intervention can take the form of restrictions on the operations of the enterprise, denial of approvals required under Chinese law to conduct the business of the enterprise, influence exerted on the appointment of management, and has in some cases involved government seizure of the assets of an enterprise. A U.S. investor in MGSD will be at risk of an intervention by the PRC government in the Chinese tourism business in general or the business of Tongzhilian in particular, as well as the risk that the PRC government will impose new restrictions on the ability of MGSD to fund the operations of Tongzhilian, such as restrictions on the use of offshore sources to fund the operations of Tongzhilian. Any such intervention by the PRC government in the operations of Tongzhilian could undermine our business plan and cause the value of an investment in MGSD to significantly decline or become worthless. Recent statements by the Chinese government indicate an intent to exert more oversight and more control over offerings conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers. Any such actions by the Chinese government could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to conduct our business, accept foreign investment, or list on a U.S. or other foreign exchange, including our ability to offer our securities to investors. Such limitations could cause the value of the securities being registered hereby to significantly decline or become worthless. The Chinese government recently has published new policies that significantly affected certain industries such as the education and internet industries, and we cannot rule out the possibility that it will in the future release regulations or policies regarding one or more of the industries in which we plan to be involved. Such regulations could require us to seek permission from Chinese authorities to operate our business, which may adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, recent statements made by the Chinese government have indicated an intent to increase the government’s oversight and control over offerings of companies with significant operations in China that are to be conducted in foreign markets, as well as foreign investment in China-based issuers like us. Any such action, once taken by the Chinese government, could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer its securities to investors, and could cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or become worthless. In July 2021, the Chinese government provided new guidance on China-based companies raising capital outside of China. In light of such developments, the SEC has imposed enhanced disclosure requirements on China-based companies seeking to register securities with the SEC. As all of our operations are based in China, any future Chinese, U.S. or other rules and regulations that place restrictions on capital raising or other activities by companies with extensive operations in China could adversely affect our business and results of operations. If the business environment in China deteriorates from the perspective of domestic or international investment, or if relations between China and the United States or other governments deteriorate, the Chinese government may intervene with our operations and our business in China, as well as the value of the securities being offered, may also be adversely affected. Our failure to comply with regulations and policies of the Chinese government, even if inadvertent, could have a serious adverse effect on our business. Each aspect of the business operations of Tongzhilian and each aspect of the relationship of MGSD with Tongzhilian will be subject to regulations imposed by the government of the PRC or the PRC Provincial governments. It will be our intention to comply with all government regulations applicable to our business. It is, however, sometimes difficult to determine with precision the meaning and intent of PRC government regulations, which are at times issued on a “trial” basis and are always subject to the interpretive authority of the issuing agency. Moreover, China has not developed a fully integrated legal system and recently enacted laws and regulations may not sufficiently cover all aspects of economic activities in China. In particular, because these laws and regulations are relatively new, and because of the limited volume of published decisions and their nonbinding nature, the interpretation and enforcement of commercial laws and regulations involve uncertainties. In addition, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules (some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all) that may have a retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of these policies and rules until some time after the violation. As a result, we could inadvertently overlook the requirement to obtain a license or permission; or we could obtain the necessary license or permission but fail to comply with the regulations governing the regulated activity; or the regulations could change in a way that defeats our plan to comply. 12 The consequences of failure or inability to conform our conduct to government policy would vary: the significance of the consequence will tend to reflect the level of concern that the government holds for the subject of the regulation. If Tongzhilian fails to comply with a government regulation applicable to its marketing activities, the penalties could range from a fine to a revocation by Beijing of Tongzhilian’s license to carry on its business. If we fail to comply with regulations regarding financial matters (securities offerings, cash flows, offshore listings), the penalties could range from significant civil penalties (e.g. revocation of Tongzhilian’s business licensee) to criminal penalties. We will be required to obtain the approval of the PRC government for a business combination, the issuance of our common stock, or maintaining our status as a publicly listed company outside China. On February 17, 2023, the CSRC promulgated the Trial Administrative Measures of Overseas Securities Offering and Listing by Domestic Companies (the “Trial Administrative Measures”), which took effect on March 31, 2023. On the same date, the CSRC published on CSRC’s official website Supporting Guidance Rules No. 1 through No. 5, Notes on the Trial Administrative Measures, Notice on Administration Arrangements for the Filing of Overseas Listings by Domestic Enterprises and relevant CSRC Answers to Reporter Questions or, collectively, the “Guidance Rules and Notice.” The Trial Administrative Measures, together with the Guidance Rules and Notice, mandate that issuers whose principal business activities occur in the PRC must, within three business days after filing with the offshore regulator an application for an offshore offering or listing of securities on an exchange, submit to CSRC an application for review. The Trial Administrative Measures apply to overseas securities offerings and/or listings conducted by companies incorporated in the PRC, PRC domestic companies, and companies incorporated overseas with operations primarily in the PRC, indirect offerings. The Trial Administrative Measures require (1) the filing of the overseas offering and listing plan by the PRC domestic companies with the CSRC under certain conditions, (2) the filing by the underwriter with the CSRC under certain conditions and (3) the submission of an annual report to the CSRC within the required timeline. The Trial Administrative Measures include: (1) criteria to determine whether an issuer will be required to go through the filing procedures under the Trial Administrative Measures; (2) exemptions from immediate filing requirements for issuers that have already been listed in foreign securities markets, including U.S. markets, prior to the effective date of the Trial Administrative Measures; (3) a negative list of types of issuers banned from listing or offering overseas, such as issuers whose affiliates have been recently convicted of bribery and corruption; (4) issuers’ compliance with web security, data security, and other national security laws and regulations; (5) issuers’ filing and reporting obligations, such as obligation to file with the CSRC after it submits an application for initial public offering to overseas regulators, and obligation after offering or listing overseas to file with the CSRC after it completes subsequent offerings and to report to the CSRC material events including change of control or voluntary or forced delisting of the issuer; and (6) the CSRC’s authority to fine both issuers and their relevant shareholders for failure to comply with the Trial Administrative Measures, including failure to comply with filing obligations or committing fraud and misrepresentation. Fines of up to 10 million RMB (approximately US$1.4 million) for non-compliance are authorized. As the Trial Administrative Measures are newly issued, there remain uncertainties regarding its interpretation and implementation. Therefore, we cannot assure you that we will be able to complete the filings for our future offerings and fully comply with the relevant new rules on a timely basis, if at all. In addition, we face uncertainty regarding the criteria that CSRS will apply when reviewing filings for approval, and cannot assure that the process will not cause a substantial reduction in our ability to raise capital in the U.S. Regulations proposed by the Cyberspace Administration of China may require Tongzhilian to apply for cybersecurity approval before MGSD can list its securities on a U.S. exchange. In the course of developing our business, we intend to collect personal information concerning customers, albeit we will do so in strict compliance with Chinese law that protects the privacy of personal information. See: “We may become subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the PRC regarding privacy, data security, cybersecurity, and data protection. We may be liable for improper use or appropriation of personal information provided by our customers” later in this Risk Factors section. Because Tongzhilian has only recently commenced operations, our store of personal data is sparce. With marketing success, however, we expect significant expansion of our data resources. 13 On July 10, 2021, the Cyberspace Administration of China (“CAC”) issued a revised draft of the Measures for Cybersecurity Review for public comments (“Draft Measures”), which required that, in addition to “operator of critical information infrastructure,” any “data processor” carrying out data processing activities that affect or may affect national security should also be subject to cybersecurity review, and further elaborated the factors to be considered when assessing the national security risks of the relevant activities, including, among others, (i) the risk of core data, important data or a large amount of personal information being stolen, leaked, destroyed, and illegally used or exited the country; and (ii) the risk of critical information infrastructure, core data, important data or a large amount of personal information being affected, controlled, or maliciously used by foreign governments after listing abroad. The Cyberspace Administration of China has said that, under the proposed rules, companies holding data on more than 1,000,000 users must now apply for cybersecurity approval when seeking listings in other nations because of the risk that such data and personal information could be “affected, controlled, and maliciously exploited by foreign governments,” The cybersecurity review will also investigate the potential national security risks from overseas IPOs. We do not know what regulations will be adopted or how such regulations will affect us and the quotation of our securities on the OTC Markets. In the event that the Cyberspace Administration of China determines that we are subject to these regulations, quotation of our securities on the OTC Markets may be prohibited and we may be subject to fines and penalties. We believe that we will not be subject to the cybersecurity review by the CAC for this offering, given that: (i) we are not an “operator of critical information infrastructure” or a “data processor” carrying out data processing activities that affect or may affect national security; (ii) we do not possess a large amount of personal information in our business operations; and (iii) data processed in our business does not have a bearing on national security and thus may not be classified as core or important data by the authorities. However, there remains uncertainty as to how the 2021 Measures will be interpreted or implemented and whether the PRC regulatory agencies, including the CAC, may adopt new laws, regulations, rules, or detailed implementation and interpretation related to the 2021 Measures. If any such new laws, regulations, rules, or implementation and interpretation comes into effect, we will take all reasonable measures and actions to comply and to minimize the adverse effect of such laws on us. Changes in China’s economic, political or social conditions or government policies could have a material adverse effect on our business and operations. The PRC government has recently indicated an intent to exert more oversight and control over overseas securities offerings and other capital markets activities and foreign investment in China-based companies like us. Any such action, once taken by the PRC government, could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or in extreme cases, become worthless. Although we are a Nevada company, the majority of our assets and operations are located in China. Accordingly, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may be influenced to a significant degree by political, economic, and social conditions in China. For example, we face risks associated with regulatory approvals of offshore offerings, anti-monopoly regulatory actions, as well as oversight on cybersecurity and data privacy. The PRC government has significant authority to exert influence on the ability of a China-based company, such as the Company, to conduct its business, accept foreign investments or list on an U.S. or other foreign exchange. The PRC government has significant authority, oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business and may intervene with or influence our operations as the government deems appropriate to further regulatory, political and societal goals. The PRC government has recently published new policies that significantly affected certain industries such as the education and internet industries, and we cannot rule out the possibility that it will in the future release regulations or policies regarding our industry that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. If any such intervention by the PRC government into our operations or the operations of our industry prevented us from carrying out our business plan, our business could fail and our shares could become worthless. Such risks or any actions by the PRC government to exert more oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign investment in China-based issuers could result in a material change in our operations and/or the value of our common stock or could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer our common stock and/or other securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless. The PRC government has recently indicated an intent to exert more oversight and control over overseas securities offerings and other capital markets activities and foreign investment in China-based companies like us. Any such action, once taken by the PRC government, could significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or in extreme cases, become worthless. 14 The Chinese government also exercises significant control over China’s economic growth through allocating resources, controlling payment of foreign currency-denominated obligations, setting monetary policy, and providing preferential treatment to particular industries or companies. Any adverse changes in economic conditions in China, in the policies of the Chinese government or in the laws and regulations in China could have a material adverse effect on the overall economic growth of China. Such developments could adversely affect our business and operating results, lead to reduction in demand for our products and adversely affect our competitive position. The Chinese government has implemented various measures to encourage economic growth and guide the allocation of resources. Some of these measures may benefit the overall Chinese economy, but may have a negative effect on us. Changes in United States and China relations may adversely impact our business, our operating results, our ability to raise capital and the market price of our shares. The U.S. government, including the SEC, has made statements and taken certain actions that led to changes in the relationship between the United States and China, and will impact companies with connections to the United States or China, including imposing several rounds of tariffs affecting certain products manufactured in China, imposing certain sanctions and restrictions in relation to China and issuing statements indicating enhanced review of companies with significant China-based operations. It is unknown whether and to what extent new legislation, executive orders, tariffs, laws or regulations will be adopted, or the effect that any such actions would have on companies with significant connections to the U.S. or to China, our industry or on us. Any unfavorable government policies on cross-border relations and/or international trade, including increased scrutiny on companies with significant China-based operations, capital controls or tariffs, may affect our ability to raise capital and the market price of our shares. Furthermore, the SEC has issued statements primarily focused on companies with significant China-based operations, such as us. For example, on July 30, 2021, Gary Gensler, Chairman of the SEC, issued a Statement on Investor Protection Related to Recent Developments in China, pursuant to which Chairman Gensler stated that he has asked the SEC staff to engage in additional reviews of filings for companies with significant China-based operations. The statement also addressed risks inherent in companies with a Variable Interest Entity, or a VIE structure. We do not have a VIE structure and are not in an industry that is subject to foreign ownership limitations by China. Further, we believe that we have robust disclosures relating to our operations in China, including the relevant risks noted in Chairman Gensler’s statement. However, it is possible that the Company’s periodic reports and other filings with the SEC may be subject to enhanced review by the SEC and this additional scrutiny could affect our ability to effectively raise capital in the United States. In response to the SEC’s July 30 statement, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (CSRC) announced on August 1, 2021, that “it is our belief that Chinese and U.S. regulators shall continue to enhance communication with the principle of mutual respect and cooperation, and properly address the issues related to the supervision of China-based companies listed in the U.S. so as to form stable policy expectations and create benign rules framework for the market.” The CSRC added that it will continue to collaborate “closely with different stakeholders including investors, companies, and relevant authorities to further promote transparency and certainty of policies and implementing measures.” It emphasized that it “has always been open to companies’ choices to list their securities on international or domestic markets in compliance with relevant laws and regulations.” If any new legislation, executive orders, tariffs, laws and/or regulations are implemented, if existing trade agreements are renegotiated or if the U.S. or Chinese governments take retaliatory actions due to the recent U.S.-China tension, such changes could have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations, our ability to raise capital and the market price of our shares. 15 Changes in the policies of the PRC government could have an adverse effect on our business. Policies of the PRC government can have significant effects on the economic conditions in the PRC. Although the PRC government has been pursuing economic reform policies and transitioning to a market-oriented economy, there is no assurance that the government will continue to pursue such policies or that such policies may not be significantly altered, especially in the event of a change in leadership, social or political disruption, or other circumstances affecting the PRC’s political, economic and social conditions. Further, regulatory agencies in China may periodically, and sometimes abruptly with little to no advance notice, change their enforcement practices. Therefore, prior enforcement activity, or lack of enforcement activity, is not necessarily predictive of future actions. Our business could be adversely affected by changes in PRC government policies, including but not limited to changes in policies relating to taxation, currency conversion, imports and exports, and ownership of private enterprises. Uncertainties with respect to the PRC legal system, including uncertainties regarding the enforcement of laws, and sudden or unexpected changes in laws and regulations in China could adversely affect us and limit the legal protections available to you and us. Our operating subsidiary is incorporated under and governed by the laws of the PRC. The PRC legal system is based on written statutes. Prior court decisions may be cited for reference but have limited precedential value. In 1979, the PRC government began to promulgate a comprehensive system of laws and regulations governing economic matters in general, such as foreign investment, corporate organization and governance, commerce, taxation and trade. However, since the PRC legal system continues to evolve rapidly, the interpretations of many laws, regulations and rules are not always uniform and enforcement of these laws, regulations and rules involves uncertainties, which may limit legal protections available to us. Uncertainties due to evolving laws and regulations could also impede the ability of a China-based company, such as Tongzhilian, to obtain or maintain permits or licenses required to conduct business in China. In the absence of required permits or licenses, governmental authorities could impose material sanctions or penalties on us. In addition, some regulatory requirements issued by certain PRC government authorities may not be consistently applied by other PRC government authorities (including local government authorities), thus making strict compliance with all regulatory requirements impractical, or in some circumstances impossible. For example, our PRC subsidiary may have to resort to administrative and court proceedings to enforce the legal protection that we enjoy either by law or contract. However, since PRC administrative and court authorities have discretion in interpreting and implementing statutory and contractual terms, it may be more difficult to predict the outcome of administrative and court proceedings and the level of legal protection we enjoy than in more developed legal systems. Furthermore, the PRC legal system is based in part on government policies and internal rules, some of which are not published on a timely basis or at all and may have retroactive effect. As a result, we may not be aware of our violation of these policies and rules until sometime after the violation. Such uncertainties, including uncertainty over the scope and effect of our contractual, property (including intellectual property) and procedural rights, could materially and adversely affect our business and impede our ability to continue our operations. Intellectual property rights and confidentiality protections in China may also not be as effective as in the United States or other countries. In addition, we cannot predict the effects of future developments in the PRC legal system on our business operations, including the promulgation of new laws, or changes to existing laws or the interpretation or enforcement thereof. These uncertainties could limit the legal protections available to us and our investors, including you. Moreover, any litigation in China may be protracted and result in substantial costs and diversion of our resources and management attention. The PRC government has significant oversight and discretion over the conduct of our business and may intervene or influence our operations as the government deems appropriate to further regulatory, political and societal goals. The PRC government has recently published new policies that significantly affected certain industries such as the education and internet industries, and we cannot rule out the possibility that it will in the future release regulations or policies regarding our industry that could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. Furthermore, the PRC government has recently indicated an intent to exert more oversight and control over securities offerings and other capital markets activities that are conducted overseas and foreign investment in China-based companies. Any such intervention in or influence on our business operations or action to exert more oversight and control over securities offerings and other capital markets activities, once taken by the PRC government, could adversely affect the business, financial condition and results of operations and the value of China-based companies, or significantly limit or completely hinder our ability to offer or continue to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or in extreme cases, become worthless. 16 PRC regulation of loans to, and direct investments in, PRC entities by offshore holding companies may delay or prevent us from using proceeds from future financing activities to make loans or additional capital contributions to our PRC operating subsidiary. As an offshore holding company with a PRC subsidiary, we may transfer funds to our PRC subsidiary or finance our operating entity by means of loans or capital contributions. Any capital contributions or loans that we, as an offshore entity, make to our Company’s PRC subsidiary, are subject to PRC regulations. Any loans to our PRC subsidiary, which is a foreign-invested enterprises, cannot exceed statutory limits based on the difference between the amount of our investments and registered capital in such subsidiaries, and shall be registered with SAFE, or its local counterparts. Furthermore, any capital increase contributions we make to our PRC subsidiary, which is a foreign-invested enterprise, are subject to the requirement of making necessary filings in FICMIS, and registration with other government authorities in China. We may not be able to obtain these government registrations or approvals on a timely basis, if at all. If we fail to obtain such approvals or make such registration, our ability to make equity contributions or provide loans to our Company’s PRC subsidiary or to fund its operations may be negatively affected, which may adversely affect its liquidity and ability to fund its working capital and expansion projects and meet its obligations and commitments. As a result, our liquidity and our ability to fund and expand our business may be negatively affected. The U.S. Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act, as amended, requires the SEC to prohibit an issuer’s securities from trading on any U.S. stock exchanges if its auditor is not subject to PCAOB inspections for two consecutive years. In 2020, the U.S. Congress adopted the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (“HFCAA”) requiring a foreign company to certify it is not owned or controlled by a foreign government if the PCAOB is unable to audit specified reports because the company uses a foreign auditor not subject to PCAOB inspection. The HFCAA also provided that, if the PCAOB is unable to inspect the company’s auditors for three consecutive years (reduced to two consecutive years by Congress in 2023), the issuer’s securities may be prohibited from trading on a national securities exchange or in the over-the-counter trading market in the U.S. On December 16, 2021, PCAOB issued a report on its determination that the PCAOB was unable to inspect or investigate completely PCAOB-registered public accounting firms headquartered in mainland China and in Hong Kong, a Special Administrative Region of the PRC, because of positions taken by PRC authorities in those jurisdictions. The PCAOB made these determinations pursuant to PCAOB Rule 6100, which provides a framework for how the PCAOB fulfills its responsibilities under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (the “HFCAA”). If the PCAOB is unable to inspect or investigate completely a registered public accounting firm headquartered in mainland China or Hong Kong because of a position taken by one or more authorities in mainland China or Hong Kong, investors are deprived of the benefits of such PCAOB inspections, which could cause investors to lose confidence in audit procedures and the quality of financial statements. In addition, under the HFCAA, a company’s securities may be prohibited from trading on the U.S. stock exchanges or in the over-the-counter trading market in the U.S. if its auditor is not inspected by the PCAOB, and this ultimately could result in a company’s common stock being delisted. The PCAOB’s 2021 report identified the specific registered public accounting firms which are subject to these determinations. Our registered public accounting firm, ARK Pro CPA & Co. is headquartered in Hong Kong and was identified in this report as a firm subject to the PCAOB’s determination. As a result, MGSD would be subject to sanctions if the Hong Kong authorities continued to prevent the PCAOB from inspecting our auditor. Under the HFCAA (as amended by the Consolidated Appropriations Act – 2023), MGSD securities may be prohibited from trading on a U.S. stock exchange or facility if our auditor is not inspected by the PCAOB for two consecutive years, and this ultimately could result in MGSD common stock being removed from the OTCQB Market. 17 On August 26, 2022, the China Securities Regulatory Commission (“CSRC”), the Ministry of Finance of China, and the PCAOB signed a protocol governing inspections and investigations of audit firms based in China and Hong Kong. On December 15, 2022, the PCAOB issued a new Determination Report which: (1) vacated the December 16, 2021 Determination Report; and (2) concluded that the PCAOB had been able to conduct inspections and investigations completely in Hong Kong in 2022. The December 15, 2022 Determination Report cautions, however, that authorities in Hong Kong might take positions at any time that would prevent the PCAOB from continuing to inspect or investigate completely. As required by the HFCAA, if in the future the PCAOB determines it no longer can inspect or investigate completely because of a position taken by an authority in Hong Kong, the PCAOB will act expeditiously to consider whether it should issue a new determination. If the PCAOB is not able to fully conduct inspections of our auditor’s work papers in Hong Kong, our securities may be prohibited from trading on a U.S. stock exchange or facility if our auditor is not inspected by the PCAOB for two consecutive years, and this ultimately could result in our common stock being barred from listing in the United States, which would likely prevent our shareholders from being able to sell their shares until the bar was lifted. Restrictions contained in Chinese law on the ability of overseas securities regulators to collect information in China may deny investors in our Company the benefits of U.S. securities regulation. China has often restricted U.S. regulators’ access to information and limited regulators’ ability to investigate or pursue remedies with respect to China-based issuers, generally citing to state secrecy and national security laws, blocking statutes, or other laws or regulations. In addition, according to Article 177 of the PRC Securities Law, which became effective in March 2020, no overseas securities regulator can directly conduct investigations or evidence collection activities within the PRC and no entity or individual in China may provide documents and information relating to securities business activities to overseas regulators without Chinese government approval. As a result of these regulations, the SEC, U.S. Department of Justice, and other U.S. authorities face substantial challenges in bringing and enforcing actions against China-based issuers and their officers and directors. As a result, investors in our Company may not benefit from a regulatory environment that fosters effective enforcement of U.S. federal securities laws. According to Article 177, there are uncertainties as to the procedures and requisite timing for the U.S. securities regulatory agencies to conduct investigations and collect evidence within the territory of the PRC. If the U.S. securities regulatory agencies are unable to conduct such investigations, there exists a risk that they may determine to suspend or de-register our registration with the SEC and may also delist our securities from OTC Markets or other applicable trading market within the US. Governmental control of currency conversion may affect the value of your investment. The People’s Republic of China (PRC) government imposes controls on the convertibility of Renminbi (RMB) into foreign currencies and, in certain cases, the remittance of currency out of the PRC. We receive substantially all of our revenues in RMB, which is currently not a freely convertible currency. Shortages in the availability of foreign currency may restrict our ability to remit sufficient foreign currency to pay dividends, or otherwise satisfy foreign currency dominated obligations. Under existing PRC foreign exchange regulations, payments of current account items, including profit distributions, interest payments and expenditures in connection with a commercial transaction, can be made in foreign currencies without prior approval from the PRC State Administration of Foreign Exchange by complying with certain procedural requirements. However, approval from appropriate governmental authorities is required where RMB is to be converted into foreign currency and remitted out of PRC to pay capital expenses such as the repayment of bank loans denominated in foreign currencies. The PRC government also may at its discretion restrict access in the future to foreign currencies for current account transactions. If the foreign exchange control system prevents us from obtaining sufficient foreign currency to satisfy our currency demands, we may not be able to pay certain of our expenses as they come due, finance our cash requirements, service debt or make dividend or other distributions to our shareholders, all of which may adversely affect your investment. 18 The fluctuation of RMB may materially and adversely affect your investment. The value of the RMB against the U.S. dollar and other currencies may fluctuate and is affected by, among other things, changes in the PRC’s political and economic conditions. As we rely entirely on revenues earned in the PRC, any significant revaluation of RMB may materially and adversely affect our cash flows, revenues and financial condition. For example, to the extent that we need to convert U.S. dollars we receive from an offering of our securities into RMB for our operations, appreciation of the RMB against the U.S. dollar could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Conversely, if we decide to convert our RMB into U.S. dollars for the purpose of making dividend payments on our common stock or for other business purposes and the U.S. dollar appreciates against the RMB, the U.S. dollar equivalent of the RMB we convert would be reduced. In addition, the depreciation of significant U.S. dollar denominated assets could result in a charge to our income statement and a reduction in the value of these assets. Because our principal assets are located outside of the United States and because all of our directors and officers reside outside of the United States, it may be difficult for you to use the United States Federal securities laws to enforce your rights against us and our officers or to enforce judgments of United States courts against us or them in the PRC. All of our present officers and directors reside outside of the United States. In addition, our operating subsidiary, Tongzhilian, is located in the PRC and substantially all of its assets are located outside of the United States. It may therefore be difficult for investors in the United States to enforce their legal rights based on the civil liability provisions of the United States Federal securities laws against us in the courts of either the United States or the PRC and, even if civil judgments are obtained in courts of the United States, to enforce such judgments in PRC courts. Further, it is unclear if extradition treaties now in effect between the United States and the PRC would permit effective enforcement against us or our officers and directors of criminal penalties, under the United States Federal securities laws or otherwise. We may become subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the PRC regarding privacy, data security, cybersecurity, and data protection. We may be liable for improper use or appropriation of personal information provided by our customers. We may become subject to a variety of laws and regulations in the PRC regarding privacy, data security, cybersecurity, and data protection. These laws and regulations are continuously evolving and developing. The scope and interpretation of the laws that are or may be applicable to us are often uncertain and may be conflicting, particularly with respect to foreign laws. In particular, there are numerous laws and regulations regarding privacy and the collection, sharing, use, processing, disclosure, and protection of personal information and other user data. Such laws and regulations often vary in scope, may be subject to differing interpretations, and may be inconsistent among different jurisdictions. We expect to obtain and maintain information about our customers and various aspects of our operations as well as regarding our employees and third parties. The integrity and protection of our customer, employee and company data is critical to our business. Our customers and employees expect that we will adequately protect their personal information. We are required by applicable laws to keep strictly confidential the personal information that we collect, and to take adequate security measures to safeguard such information. The PRC Criminal Law, as amended by its Amendment 7 (effective on February 28, 2009) and Amendment 9 (effective on November 1, 2015), prohibits institutions, companies and their employees from selling or otherwise illegally disclosing a citizen’s personal information obtained during the course of performing duties or providing services or obtaining such information through theft or other illegal ways. On November 7, 2016, the Standing Committee of the PRC National People’s Congress issued the Cyber Security Law of the PRC, or Cyber Security Law, which became effective on June 1, 2017. Pursuant to the Cyber Security Law, network operators must not, without users’ consent, collect their personal information, and may only collect users’ personal information necessary to provide their services. Providers are also obliged to provide security maintenance for their products and services and shall comply with provisions regarding the protection of personal information as stipulated under the relevant laws and regulations. We believe that we are in compliance with the Cyber Security Law, given that: (i) our products and services are sold offline; and (ii) we do not have an online platform. 19 The Civil Code of the PRC (issued by the PRC National People’s Congress on May 28, 2020 and effective from January 1, 2021) provides the main legal basis for privacy and personal information infringement claims under the Chinese civil laws. PRC regulators, including the Cyberspace Administration of China, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, and the Ministry of Public Security have been increasingly focused on regulation in the areas of data security and data protection. The PRC regulatory requirements regarding cybersecurity are constantly evolving. For instance, various regulatory bodies in China have enforced data privacy and protection laws and regulations with varying and evolving standards and interpretations. In April 2020, the Chinese government promulgated Cybersecurity Review Measures, which came into effect on June 1, 2020. According to the Cybersecurity Review Measures, operators of critical information infrastructure must pass a cybersecurity review when purchasing network products and services which do or may affect national security. In November 2016, the Standing Committee of China’s National People’s Congress passed China’s first Cybersecurity Law (“CSL”), which became effective in June 2017. The CSL is the first PRC law that systematically lays out the regulatory requirements on cybersecurity and data protection, subjecting many previously under-regulated or unregulated activities in cyberspace to government scrutiny. The legal consequences of violation of the CSL include penalties of warning, confiscation of illegal income, suspension of related business, winding up for rectification, shutting down the websites, and revocation of business license or relevant permits. In April 2020, the Cyberspace Administration of China and certain other PRC regulatory authorities promulgated the Cybersecurity Review Measures, which became effective in June 2020. Pursuant to the Cybersecurity Review Measures, operators of critical information infrastructure must pass a cybersecurity review when purchasing network products and services which do or may affect national security. On July 10, 2021, the Cyberspace Administration of China issued a revised draft of the Measures for Cybersecurity Review for public comments (“Draft Measures”), which required that, in addition to “operator of critical information infrastructure,” any “data processor” carrying out data processing activities that affect or may affect national security should also be subject to cybersecurity review, and further elaborated the factors to be considered when assessing the national security risks of the relevant activities, including, among others, (i) the risk of core data, important data or a large amount of personal information being stolen, leaked, destroyed, and illegally used or exited the country; and (ii) the risk of critical information infrastructure, core data, important data or a large amount of personal information being affected, controlled, or maliciously used by foreign governments after listing abroad. We believe that we will not be subject to the cybersecurity review by the CAC, given that: (i) we are not an “operator of critical information infrastructure” or a “data processor” carrying out data processing activities that affect or may affect national security; (ii) we do not possess a large amount of personal information in our business operations; and (iii) data processed in our business does not have a bearing on national security and thus may not be classified as core or important data by the authorities. However, there remains uncertainty as to how the 2021 Measures will be interpreted or implemented and whether the PRC regulatory agencies, including the CAC, may adopt new laws, regulations, rules, or detailed implementation and interpretation related to the 2021 Measures. If any such new laws, regulations, rules, or implementation and interpretation comes into effect, we will take all reasonable measures and actions to comply and to minimize the adverse effect of such laws on us. On June 10, 2021, the Standing Committee of the National People’s Congress promulgated the PRC Data Security Law, which became effective on September 1, 2021. The Data Security Law also sets forth the data security protection obligations for entities and individuals handling personal data, including that no entity or individual may acquire such data by stealing or other illegal means, and the collection and use of such data should not exceed the necessary limits. The costs of compliance with, and other burdens imposed by, CSL and any other cybersecurity and related laws may limit the use and adoption of our products and services and could have an adverse impact on our business. Further, if the enacted version of the Measures for Cybersecurity Review mandates clearance of cybersecurity review and other specific actions to be completed by companies like us, we face uncertainties as to whether such clearance can be timely obtained, or at all. We believe that we are in compliance with the PRC Data Security Law, given that: (i) collecting and possessing personal information in our business operations were authorized; and (ii) data processed in our business does not have a bearing on national security and thus may not be classified as core or important data by the authorities. However, there remains uncertainty as to whether the PRC regulatory agencies may adopt new laws, regulations, rules, or detailed implementation and interpretation. If any such new laws, regulations, rules, or implementation and interpretation comes into effect, we will take all reasonable measures and actions to comply and to minimize the adverse effect of such laws on us. 20 We cannot assure you that PRC regulatory agencies, including the CAC, would take the same view as we do, and there is no assurance that we can fully or timely comply with such laws. In the event that we are subject to any mandatory cybersecurity review and other specific actions required by PRC regulatory agencies, we face uncertainty as to whether any clearance or other required actions can be timely completed, or at all. Given such uncertainty, we may be further required to suspend our relevant business, shut down our website, or face other penalties, which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The Chinese government can take actions to regulate business operations in China with little to no advance notice at any time, including interference with the securities market, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the efforts in anti-monopoly enforcement. Rules and regulations and the enforcement or interpretation thereof in China can also change with little to no advance notice, and actions related to oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas could cause the value of MGSD’s securities to significantly decline or be worthless. The Chinese government has taken and continues to take actions to exercise control over virtually every sector of the Chinese economy through regulation and state ownership, sometimes with very little advance notice. Our ability to operate through our subsidiary in China may be hindered by changes in its laws and regulations, including those relating to taxation, environmental regulations, land use rights, cybersecurity, property and other matters. The central or local governments of these jurisdictions may impose new, stricter regulations or interpretations of existing regulations that would require additional expenditures and efforts on our part to ensure our compliance with such regulations or interpretations. Accordingly, government actions in the future, including any decision not to continue to support recent economic reforms and to return to a more centrally planned economy or regional or local variations in the implementation of economic policies, could result in a material change in our operations in China and could limit or completely hinder our ability to offer securities to investors or require us to divest ourselves of any interest we then hold in Chinese properties or joint ventures. Any such actions (including divesture or similar actions) could result in a material adverse effect to us and on your investment in us and could render your investment in our securities worthless. As such, the Company’s business segments and entities may be subject to various government and regulatory interference in the provinces in which they operate. The Company could be subject to new regulation by various political and regulatory entities, including various local and municipal agencies and government sub-divisions. The Company may incur increased costs necessary to comply with existing and newly adopted laws and regulations or penalties for any failure to comply. As a result, the fast-changing rules and regulation could potentially impact our operation and profitability in China and as a result, cause the value of MGSD’s securities to significantly decline or even become worthless. 21 Risks Relating to Our Common Stock and this Offering We are an emerging growth company and, as a result of the reduced disclosure and governance requirements applicable to emerging growth companies, our common stock may be less attractive to investors. We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the JOBS Act, and we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements applicable to other public companies. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest to occur of: (i) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have at least $1.07 billion in annual revenue; (ii) the last day of the fiscal year in which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer,” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, which would occur if the market value of our Common Stock held by non-affiliates exceeded $700 million as of the last business day of the second fiscal quarter of such year; (iii) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in nonconvertible debt securities during the prior three-year period; and (iv) the last day of the fiscal year ending after the fifth anniversary of our initial securities offering. The exemptions available to emerging growth companies include the right to present only two years of audited financial statements in our registration statements and annual reports, an exemption from the auditor attestation requirement of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act relating to internal controls, reduced disclosure about executive compensation arrangements, and no requirement to seek non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements. Some of these exemptions are also available to us as a smaller reporting company (i.e. a company with less than $250 million of its voting equity held by non-affiliates). We have elected to adopt these reduced disclosure requirements. We cannot predict if investors will find our common stock less attractive as a result of our taking advantage of these exemptions. If some investors find our common stock less attractive as a result of our choices, there may be a less active trading market for our common stock and our stock price may be more volatile. Pursuant to Section 107(b) of the JOBS Act, we have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards under Section 102(b)(2) of The JOBS Act. This election allows us to delay the adoption of new or revised accounting standards that have different effective dates for public and private companies until those standards apply to private companies. As a result, our financial statements may not be comparable to companies that comply with public company effective dates. The decision to opt out is irrevocable. Because the worldwide market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates, or public float, was below $250 million on the last day of our second fiscal quarter, we are also a “smaller reporting company” as defined under the Exchange Act. Some of the foregoing reduced disclosure and other requirements are also available to us because we are a smaller reporting company and may continue to be available to us even after we are no longer an emerging growth company under the JOBS Act but remain a smaller reporting company under the Exchange Act. As a smaller reporting company, we are not required to: ● have an auditor report on our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; ● present more than two years of audited financial statements in our registration statements and annual reports on Form 10-K; or ● present any selected financial data in such registration statements and annual reports filings made by the Company. Because we will be subject to “penny stock” rules, the level of trading activity in our stock may be reduced. For the foreseeable future, it is likely that our common stock will be classified as a “penny stock”. Penny stocks generally are equity securities with a price of less than $5.00 (other than securities registered on some national securities exchanges). Broker-dealer practices in connection with transactions in “penny stocks” are regulated by penny stock rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The penny stock rules require a broker-dealer, prior to a transaction in a penny stock not otherwise exempt from the rules, to deliver a standardized risk disclosure document that provides information about penny stocks and the nature and level of risks in the penny stock market. The broker-dealer also must provide the customer with current bid and offer quotations for the penny stock, the compensation of the broker-dealer and its salesperson in the transaction, and, if the broker-dealer is the sole market maker, the broker-dealer must disclose this fact and the broker-dealer’s presumed control over the market, and monthly account statements showing the market value of each penny stock held in the customer’s account. In addition, broker-dealers who sell these securities to persons other than established customers and “accredited investors” must make a special written determination that the penny stock is a suitable investment for the purchaser and receive the purchaser’s written agreement to the transaction. Consequently, these requirements may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity, if any, in the secondary market for a security subject to the penny stock rules. Since these regulations will likely be applicable to the common stock of MGSD until a more liquid market for the shares develops, investors in our common stock may find it difficult to sell their shares. 22 FINRA sales practice requirements may limit a stockholder’s ability to buy and sell our stock. FINRA has adopted rules that require that in recommending an investment to a customer, a broker-dealer must have reasonable grounds for believing that the investment is suitable for that customer. Prior to recommending speculative low-priced securities to their non-institutional customers, broker-dealers must make reasonable efforts to obtain information about the customer’s financial status, tax status, investment objectives and other information. Under interpretations of these rules, FINRA believes that there is a high probability that speculative low-priced securities will not be suitable for at least some customers. FINRA requirements make it more difficult for broker-dealers to recommend that their customers buy our common stock, which may have the effect of reducing the level of trading activity in our common stock. As a result, fewer broker-dealers may be willing to make a market in our common stock, reducing a stockholder’s ability to resell shares of our common stock. Shareholders do not have pre-emptive rights, which will cause them to experience dilution if we issue additional securities. At any time or times, we may issue and sell shares of our authorized but previously unissued shares of common stock, preferred stock, or common stock warrants on such terms and conditions as our Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may determine without consent of our shareholders. Our shareholders do not have pre-emptive rights to acquire additional shares should we in the future issue or sell additional securities. Thus, we are not required to offer any existing shareholder the right to purchase his or her pro rata portion of any future issuance of securities and, therefore, upon the issuance of any additional securities by us hereafter, our shareholders will not be able to maintain their then existing pro rata ownership in our outstanding shares of common stock, preferred stock, or common stock warrants without additional purchases of securities at the price then set internally by us. We are unlikely to pay cash dividends in the foreseeable future. We currently intend to retain any future earnings for use in the operation and expansion of our business. We do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future but will review this policy as circumstances dictate. Should we decide in the future to do so, as a holding company, our ability to pay dividends and meet other obligations depends upon the receipt of dividends or other payments from our operating subsidiary. In addition, our operating subsidiary, from time to time, may be subject to restrictions on its ability to make distributions to us, including as a result of restrictions on the conversion of local currency into U.S. dollars or other hard currency and other regulatory restrictions. Our CEO own a near-majority of the outstanding shares of our stock, and accordingly, will have control over stockholder matters, the Company’s business and management. Huang Fang, our CEO, owns common stock representing 49% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. While she continues to hold the near-majority of the voting power in our Company, this director will have effective control over the Company. In particular, the director will have the ability to: ● Elect or defeat the election of our directors; ● Amend or prevent amendment of our articles of incorporation or bylaws; ● Effect or prevent a merger, sale of assets or other corporate transaction; and ● Affect the outcome of any other matter submitted to the shareholders for vote. Moreover, because of the significant ownership position held by our CEO, new investors will not be able to affect a change in the Company’s business or management, and therefore, shareholders would be subject to decisions made by management and the majority shareholders. In addition, sales of significant amounts of shares held by our directors and executive officers, or the prospect of these sales, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. Management’s stock ownership may discourage a potential acquirer from making a tender offer or otherwise attempting to obtain control of us, which in turn could reduce our stock price or prevent our shareholders from realizing a premium over our stock price. 23
