IMTE will pay a deferred payment based on future earnings of Ace Corporation Limited ("Ace") and a bonus payment if Ace is listed on a recognized exchange in the next 5 years.
Under the Cooperation Agreement, IMTE now may invest up to US$1 million for 60% equity interests in Ace to develop, establish, and operate a trading platform called "Ouction". The development, marketing and operating team will receive the 40% of the equity interest in Ace. The core technology will be developed by Mr. Eric Zhang and his team. Ouction platform will be an interactive experiencing solution designed with dynamic image cryptographic verification technology which will serve as a bridge for O2O (Online to Offline) transaction. This will enable the "Ouction" platform to not only verify virtual asset transactions, but also provide encryption and Blockchain notarized digital certificates of physical assets for a fairer and more credible platform trading experience to e-commerce companies and their users.
The Ouction platform will build its own side-chain on the existing mainstream large-scale Blockchains to save calculating cost and analysis on the computational load calculated by distributed ledgers, and reduce the barrier for users to becoming a node. We intend to also develop mobile device applications to enable mobile device users to browse data for proof of traceability and to transact using Blockchain without computing load.
Mr. Eric Zhang stated, "NFT is the bridge to connect public auction market and e-commerce. The market size, measured by revenue, of the E-Commerce & Online Auctions industry is US$645.2 billion in 2021, and is expected to increase 8.1% in 2022." Eric further added, "We are assembling a team of skilled and experienced software engineers who has experienced in multiple Blockchain projects, including the development of the first batch of Blockchain cultural platforms, crypto quantitative trading system, financial Blockchain platform for supply chain, etc. Ouction is expected to adopt decentralized technologies in the fields of games, fintech, film & TV, culture, and e-commerce, and to develop cross-industrial synergy, so to develop economic value from the new NFT marketplace they create."
