3.

The applicable Chinese laws and regulations, judgment, orders or decree, rules, regulations and facts, shall remain unchanged as of the date hereof and will not be changed.
基于上述假定,并结合本所律师对文件的审查以及对中国法律的理解，出具如下法律意见：
Based on our review of the Documents and our understandings of Chinese laws, subject to the foregoing assumptions, we are of the opinion that:
1. 畅世通是一家依据中国法律设立并有效存续的外商独资企业，其股权百分之百（100%）由畅世通荣所有，并具有企业法人地位。依照中国相关的法律，深圳市福田区经济促进局作出的“深外资福复【2013】0699号文件”及畅世通章程的规定，畅世通已如期缴清全部注册资本。尽本所律师调查后所知，不存在任何可能导致畅世通股权变更或注册资本金额变动的担保、抵押、留置、索赔或其他第三方权益。畅世通自成立以来所经历的各项变更均为合法有效，且依据中国法律完备并规范地履行了相关法律手续，并未发现任何违反中国法律的情形。

2. Tianfeihong has been duly incorporated as a limited liability company and validly exits under the PRC Laws. Tianfeihong has the enterprise legal person status. Fang Zhiliang owns 69% of the company’s equity interest, and the remaining 31% is owned by Fang Jinxiang.

To our best knowledge after due inquiry, except for those contemplated under the VIE Documents listed in the exhibit, there is no mortgages, pledge, detention, claim or other third party rights and interests that may lead to the change of the shareholdings or the amount of the registered capital of Tianfeihong. All the alternation happened to Tianfeihong since its establishment are legal and valid, and Tianfeihong performed the legal procedures normally and completely without violation of PRC laws.

3. Both Changshitong and Tianfeihong have sufficient corporate right and power to own, use, lease and dispose their assets and conduct their business in the manner described in their business licenses.
4. 尽本所律师在尽职调查后所知，畅世通和天妃红的章程和营业执照在一切重大方面都与中国相关的法律相符，并完全有效。
4. To our best knowledge after due inquiry, the articles of association and the business license of Changshitong and Tianfeihong are in compliance with requirements of the applicable PRC laws in all material aspects and are in full force and effect.
5. 尽本所律师尽职调查后所知，畅世通和天妃红从事的业务在一切重大方面都与其公司章程及中国法律相符，并取得了与经营有关、且必要、重大的中国政府许可。
5. To our best knowledge after due inquiry, the business of Changshitong and Tianfeihong complies with its articles of association and the PRC Laws in all material aspects. All necessary and material PRC Governmental Authorizations were duly obtained in connection with any operations in the PRC.
6. 尽本所律师尽职调查之后所知,畅世通/天妃红名下无任何物业，其经营所需的房产是通过畅世通/天妃红或其授权的人签订合法、有效并有约束力的租赁协议取得。
6. To our best knowledge after due inquiry, neither Changshitong nor Tianfeihong owns any real property.

9. To our best knowledge, each of the VIE Documents as listed in the exhibit hereto, is valid and enforceable against all parties involved in the VIE Documents and does not violate any mandatory provisions of the applicable PRC Laws.
10.新并购规则称，中国公司和/或自然人为实现以其拥有的境内公司权益在境外上市而直接或间接地控制的境外公司，在境外股票交易所上市交易之前应取得中国证监会的批准。然而China Tianfeihong本次股票发行所采取的模式是否需要按照新并购规则的要求取得事前批准，中国证监会并未作出任何明确的说明。
10. The New M&A Rules purport, among other things, to require offshore special purpose vehicles formed for the purpose of overseas listing of the equity interests in Domestic company and controlled directly or indirectly by PRC company and/or PRC individuals to obtain the approval of the CSRC prior to the listing and trading of their securities on overseas stock exchanges. The CSRC has not issued any definitive rules or interpretations concerning whether offerings such as the China Tianfeihong’s Offering are subject to the CSRC approval procedures under the New M&A Rule.
根据本所律师对截至意见出具日的中国现行法律，包括新并购规则的理解，本所律师认为，由于畅世通是一家外商独资企业，不存在中国股东，且Fanwei Hengchang并非新并购规则所描述的特殊目的公司，因此，China Tianfeihong本次的股票发行无需按照新并购规则的要求以取得中国证监会的批准。但在如何解读新并购规则这一事项上，仍然存在着不确定性，如有任何新的法律、法规或其他形式的文件，对新并购规则作出进一步细化的解释与说明，则应以相应的文件为准。
Based on our understanding of the current PRC Laws, including the New M&A Rule, prior approval from the CSRC is not required under the New M&A Rule for the listing and trading of China Tianfeihong on OTCBB, because Changshitong is a wholly foreign-owned enterprise and without Chinese shareholder, and Fanwei Hengchang does not constitute a special purpose vehicle as defined by the New M&A Rule. However, uncertainties still exist as to how the New M&A Rule will be interpreted and implemented and our opinion stated above is subject to any new laws, rules and regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations in any form relating to the New M&A Rule.
作为中国的执业律师，本所律师根据截至意见出具日现行有效且为公众所知的中国法律出具本法律意见书，且本意见书是基于以下条件出具：
We are licensed to practice in the PRC and the foregoing opinion is limited to the PRC Laws currently in force and publicly available on the date of this opinion and is subject to the following additional qualifications:
1．本意见书是依据截至意见出具日普遍适用、有效的中国法律作出的。本所律师未对有关的境外法律进行调查，也未明示或暗示与之有关的任何观点。
1. Our opinion is limited to the PRC Laws of general application effective as of the date hereof. We have made no investigation of, and do not express or imply any views on, the laws of any country other than the PRC;
2．本意见书旨在用于本次发行上市之目的。
2. This legal opinion is intended to be used for the purpose of this issuance and offering.
3．本意见书中提及的中国法律是截至意见出具日为公众所知并有效的法律法规，但无法保证在短期或长期内，对上述法律法规作出更改、修正或撤销时，此类变动无溯及力。
3. The PRC Laws referred to herein are laws and regulations publicly available and currently in force on the date hereof and there is no guarantee that any of such laws and regulations or the interpretation or enforcement thereof, will not be changed, amended or revoked in the immediate future or in the long term with or without retrospective effect;
4．本意见书是基于本所律师对中国现行法律的理解而出具的，至于上述法律未明确规定的事项，在其执行和适用的过程中,中国的立法、行政和司法机关也许会作出与本意见书不一致的处理意见。
4. This opinion is issued based on our understanding of the current PRC Laws. For matters not explicitly provided under the current PRC Laws, the interpretation, implementation and application of the specific requirements under the PRC Laws are subject to the final discretion of competent PRC legislative, administrative and judicial authorities, which may be different from our opinion; and
5．本所律师审阅由政府机关、畅世通和天妃红提供的文件时，关注的是以上文件内容的合理程度,而并非获取此类文件的合法性。
5. We may rely, as to matters of fact (but not as to legal conclusions), to the extent reasonable, on certificates and confirmations of Government Agencies or responsible officers of the Changshitong and Tianfeihong.
本意见书仅供China Tianfeihong为本次发行上市之目的使用，未征得本所律师的事先书面许可，不得为任何其它目的对本意见书进行参考、引用、借鉴，发布，或提交给除本次发行股票的法律和财务顾问之外的任何第三人。
This opinion is only used for the purpose of the issuance and offering of China Tianfeihong. Without our prior written permission, this opinion shall not be relied upon, quoted or referred to for any other purpose or released upon by, or furnished to any other person other than the legal and financial counsel of this stock issuance.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the use of this opinion (including discussion of this opinion) and reference to our firm name in the Registration Statement.
