________________________________________________________________________________
Item 2. Identity and Background.
Pursuant to Rule 13d-1(a) of Regulation 13D-G of the General Rules and
Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Act"),
this Schedule 13D Statement is hereby filed by Tai Caihua and Shi Ying, each a
citizen of the People's Republic of China.
Mr. Tai's principal occupation or employment is serving as the
President of the Issuer, whose principal business is to render value-added
information services in China by purchasing content from third-party providers
and reformatting such content to enable wireless receiver users in China to

Republic of China.
Ms. Shi's principal occupation or employment is Head of Operations of
the Issuer's indirect subsidiary, TCH Data Technology Co., Ltd. The principal
business address of TCH Data Technology Co., Ltd., which also serves as Ms.
Shi's principal office, is 689 Laoshandong Road, Shanghai 200120, People's
Republic of China.
During the last five years, neither Ms. Shi nor Mr. Tai has been
convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar
misdemeanors) nor was Ms. Shi or Mr. Tai a party to a civil proceeding of a
judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of
such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining
future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal
or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
________________________________________________________________________________
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.
On June 23, 2004, the Issuer completed a stock exchange (the "Stock
Exchange") with the shareholders of Sifang Holdings Co., Ltd., an exempted
company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with limited liability ("Sifang
Holdings"). The Stock Exchange was consummated under Nevada and Cayman Islands
law and pursuant to the terms of the Securities Exchange Agreement, dated as of
June 23, 2004, referred to in this Schedule 13D as the Exchange Agreement. A
copy of the Exchange Agreement is filed as an exhibit to this Schedule 13D.
Prior to consummating the Stock Exchange, the Issuer effected a forward
split of its Stock on the basis of 1.31722 shares for each one share issued and
outstanding. Immediately prior to the Stock Exchange there were 1,585,705 shares
of Stock of the Issuer issued and outstanding (on a post-forward split basis).
Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Issuer issued 13,782,636 shares
of its Stock, par value $0.001 per share (on a post-forward split basis), to the
shareholders of Sifang Holdings, including Mr. Tai and Ms. Shi, representing
approximately 89.7% of the Issuer's post-exchange issued and outstanding Stock,
in exchange for 100% of the outstanding capital stock of Sifang Holdings. After
giving effect to the Stock Exchange, the Issuer had 15,368,341 shares of its
Stock outstanding.
At the closing of the Stock Exchange, Sifang Holdings became a
wholly-owned subsidiary of the Issuer, and the Issuer succeeded to the business
of Sifang Holdings. All of the Issuer's business operations are conducted
through Sifang Holdings. Prior to the Stock Exchange, there were no material
relationships between the Issuer and Sifang Holdings, or any of the parties'
respective affiliates, directors or officers, or any associates of their
respective officers or directors.
The Stock Exchange was approved in accordance with the laws of the
State of Nevada and the Cayman Islands. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, at
the closing of the Stock Exchange, the membership of the board of directors of
the Issuer was increased from one to two directors, and Mr. Tai was appointed to
serve in the newly created directorship. Also under the terms of the Stock
Exchange, all existing officers resigned as officers of the Issuer effective
immediately following the closing of the transaction and Mr. Tai was elected as
President of the Issuer. On June 24, 2004, Mr. Halter resigned as a director of
the Issuer. Also, on June 24, 2004, the membership of the board of directors of
the Issuer was increased from one to ten, and Ms. Shi, Song Jing, Mao Ming, Fu
SiXing, Huang TianQi, Huang Wei, Jing Weiping, Yu Ruijie and Zhang Xiaodong were
appointed to serve in the newly created directorships.

the Exchange Agreement with the purpose of obtaining control over the Issuer.

stock of the Issuer and Sifang Holdings would become a wholly-owned subsidiary

following actions:

June 23, 2004, Mr. Tai may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 9,510,021
shares of the Issuer's Stock, which constitute approximately 61.9% of the
15,368,341 shares of the Issuer's Stock outstanding at June 23, 2004. This

contemplated therein. Mr. Tai acquired such shares in a privately negotiated
Stock Exchange, as described above. Mr. Tai exercises sole voting power and sole
dispositive power with respect to all such shares of which he is the beneficial
owner.
As of June 23, 2004, Ms. Shi may be deemed to be the beneficial owner

owner.
