among them, Zhou Yingbo is the "top stream" of public offering. As of the end of the third quarter of 2021, Zhou Yingbo's management scale has exceeded 57.6 billion. It represents the pioneer of China Europe times, and has achieved 350% performance return in six years of management.

Guilin Layn Natural Ingredients Corp(002166) replied to the question raised by the organization about the advantages of the company's industrial marijuana project:
1. The company's CBD extraction plant has the advantage of scale. Due to the lack of plant extraction industry in the United States, local industrial cannabis extraction enterprises mostly exist in the form of laboratories or small factories, and the industry lacks manufacturers for industrial production and large-scale supply. Therefore, the establishment of the company's plant effectively makes up for the gap in the supply of stable extraction raw materials in the local industrial cannabis industry and effectively connects the upstream and downstream of the industrial cannabis industry chain.
2. The company has advanced extraction technology and process. The equipment of industrial hemp extraction plant is customized in China. After formal mass production, it will realize full-automatic extraction, which has advantages in extraction efficiency and cost control.
3. Customer expansion advantages. The company's customers are spread in more than 60 countries and regions around the world, covering many industries such as food, beverage, medicine and health care. It highly coincides with the application fields of industrial marijuana extraction products, which is conducive to the market expansion and customer reserve of the company's team in the United States.
Organization: the legalization of federal industrial marijuana in the United States may be accelerated
It is worth noting that this week, the Rules Committee of the US House of representatives will hold a new round of voting on the marijuana opportunity reinvestment and Elimination Act (more act).
Guoyuan Securities Company Limited(000728) pointed out that the legalization of marijuana in the United States has lasted for a century. At present, although about 40 states have legalized medical or recreational marijuana at the state level, it has not been fully legalized at the federal level. The probability of passing the bill in the Senate and house of Representatives may increase this time, mainly for the following two reasons:
1) in recent years, the public opinion support rate for the legalization of marijuana has been rising. Gallup survey data show that since the 1970s, the support rate for legalization of cannabis in the United States has increased from about 15% at that time to 68% in 2020. In recent years, it has shown an accelerated upward trend, and the end consumer demand has also continued to increase, with an obvious trend of legalization;
2) compared with 2020, there is pressure on the U.S. mid-term election in the second half of this year, and its voting against the public opinion may affect its own election results; In addition, when the house of Representatives voted on the bill for the first time in 2020, it passed with 228 votes: 164 votes, so there is a high probability of passing the same bill this time.
At the same time, the Senate is also very concerned about the marijuana legalization bill. It also proposed a similar marijuana legalization bill, the marijuana management and Opportunity Act (CAOA), in 2021. The Senate may pass the "more bill" and make some amendments this time. If the bill is passed and signed by President Biden, the United States may become the third country to fully legalize marijuana after Uruguay and Canada.
Tianfeng Securities Co.Ltd(601162) said that at present, 37 states, 4 territories and the District of Columbia in the United States have legalized medical cannabis, of which 18 states, 2 territories and the capital have also legalized non-medical cannabis. The bill has a high probability of passing the house of Representatives. At present, the house of Representatives is dominated by Democrats (the Democratic Party has always supported cannabis legalization, with a support rate of 83% in 2020). At the same time, the house of Representatives has passed the bill once in December 2020. The legalization of federal industrial marijuana in the United States may be accelerated, and the market is expected to expand rapidly, which is conducive to the layout of enterprises related to the industrial chain, In particular, OEM and brand enterprises with large-scale production capacity may usher in rapid development opportunities.
