reply:

The clothing business of the company is mainly to sell suits, shirts and other clothing products, and undertake group purchase and customization of key customers, foreign trade export and other businesses.

During the reporting period, the company's clothing business mainly served Chinese medium and large enterprise customers in finance, transportation, manufacturing and other industries, and maintained stable cooperative relations. The company suggests and determines the main fabric, color, style and other standards of clothing products with downstream customers through bidding and other means, and signs a long-term cooperation contract. During the cooperation period, according to the requirements of customers' specific orders, the company purchases ready-made clothes that meet the quality requirements from qualified suppliers, and undertakes the obligation to deliver goods that meet the standards agreed in the contract to customers. According to the sales contract signed with the customer, "when all the goods reach the delivery site and pass the acceptance of Party A, the delivery shall be deemed to be completed. The risk of the goods shall be transferred to Party A from the completion of delivery". According to the agreement of the contract, the company takes the time point of revenue recognition after the customer signs for acceptance and obtains the control right of goods.

Revenue recognition policy: during the reporting period, the downstream customers of the company are mostly concentrated in China's financial, transportation, manufacturing and other large and medium-sized enterprise customers, and have the obligation to deliver qualified commodities that meet the standards agreed in the contract, settle accounts and issue invoices to customers, and bear the risk of sales collection. In order to control the cost, the company submits the links such as garment quality inspection, logistics transportation and after-sales dry cleaning to the suppliers, but the company is directly responsible for the final delivery quality of the products. Since the company handed over the whole process of garment products from delivery to delivery to customers to the supplier in a package, the company, out of consideration of prudence and in combination with the requirements of revenue recognition for commodity control in the new revenue standard, recognized the income of garment business in the form of net amount method after the customer accepted and signed for goods control. The recognized amount of clothing revenue in 2021 was 64.3395 million yuan (Unaudited).

In conclusion, the accounting treatment of the company's clothing business complies with the provisions of the accounting standards for business enterprises.

(3) Based on the above situation, check the specific amount of your company's operating income after deduction in 2021 and whether there is any situation that the operating income after deduction is less than 100 million yuan.

reply:

The annual operating revenue increased compared with that in 2020. The operating income and deduction of the company in 2021 are as follows:

Project amount (10000 yuan)

Total operating income 198141.46

The total operating income deducted is 182957.83

Operating income after deduction 15183.63

In conclusion, according to the preliminary calculation of the company's financial department, the company has no business income less than 100 million yuan after deduction.

The amount of the above operating income before and after deduction has not been audited, and the final audit result of the annual audit accountant shall prevail.

2. According to the reply, your company plans to hire Zhongxi Certified Public Accountants (special general partnership) (hereinafter referred to as "Zhongxi Institute") due to significant differences of opinion with ZTE on the deduction of operating income.

Due to the different understanding of the rules between the company and zhongxinghua Institute, and the change of the chief reviewer of the original project team of zhongxinghua Institute, the pre-trial work was not carried out in time, resulting in the slow progress of the annual review. After friendly negotiation, the company will not renew the appointment of zhongxinghua Institute as the company's external auditor in 2021. The company has communicated with zhongxinghua Institute in advance on this matter and obtained its understanding and support.

Through the understanding of the comprehensive situation of Zhongxi Institute, Zhongxi Institute has the audit qualification related to securities and futures business, has the experience and ability to provide audit services for listed companies, has good investor protection ability, independence, professional quality and integrity, and can provide real and fair audit services for the company. Considering the company's business development and audit work arrangement, the company appointed Zhongxi as the company's external audit institution in 2021.

(2) Please check the deduction of the company's operating income and explain whether there is any disagreement with the company and ZTE. If yes, please specify.

reply:

Opinions of China Hi Tech Research Institute:

1、 Deduction of operating income

We accepted the entrustment to start the audit in late January 2022. The time is short and coincides with the Spring Festival holiday, and there are a large number of auditees. Based on the principle of prudence, the project team needs to conduct detailed audit on the operating income of all entities, obtain sufficient and appropriate audit evidence and review before issuing the verification results of relevant operating income deduction. As the audit is still in progress, it is impossible to draw relevant accurate conclusions for the time being.

2、 Whether there is disagreement with the company and zhongxinghua on the deduction of operating income

In January 2022, we communicated with the company's management, the board of directors and the Audit Committee on the understanding of the new regulations on the deduction of revenue consulted by the company, and said that it was consistent with the professional judgment of ZTE.

After the audit entered the site, the company had many communications and discussions with the company. The company also further understood the document spirit of the new regulations on revenue deduction by learning the new regulations on revenue deduction for many times and participating in the special training of 2021 annual report held by Shenzhen Stock Exchange. At present, the company said that it accepted and adopted the professional opinions of the accountants of the Institute, and there was no difference of opinion.

(3) In combination with the above situation, your company is requested to check whether there is any situation of purchasing special verification opinions of audit institutions to avoid delisting risk warning, and ask independent directors to express clear opinions.

reply:

When the original annual audit institution fails to carry out the pre-trial work in time and the annual audit progress is slow, the company timely prepares to replace the accounting firm and selects an external audit institution with qualified qualification and professional ability to ensure the smooth implementation of the annual audit. Therefore, Zhongxi Institute was appointed as the company's external audit institution in 2021 to be responsible for the company's 2021 financial report and related special audit work.

Zhongxi Institute has the audit qualification related to securities and futures business, has the experience and ability to provide audit services for listed companies, has good investor protection ability, independence, professional quality and integrity, and can provide real and fair audit services for the company.

There is no significant difference between Zhongxi office and zhongxinghua office on the special deduction of the company's revenue. The company does not purchase special verification opinions of audit institutions to avoid delisting risk warning.

Opinions of independent directors:

Based on the principle of seeking truth from facts and being diligent and responsible, since December 2021, the independent directors have paid attention to the company's annual operation and annual audit progress, communicated with the company's management for many times, learned the reasons for changing the external audit institution, and communicated and verified with ZTE and Zhongxi respectively.

After fully understanding the above situation, we believe that the company does not buy special verification opinions of audit institutions to avoid delisting risk warning.
