            DF CHINA TECHNOLOGY ACQUIRES STAKE IN 3D IMAGING COMPANY

         (Hong Kong, December 1, 2000) - DF China Technology Inc. (DFCT) has
completed the acquisition of a 21% interest in Tianjin 3D Image Technique Co
Ltd., a leading developer of 3D imaging technology. DFCT has acquired the stake
in Tianjin 3D for a consideration of 1.6 million DFCT shares.

         A related agreement gives DFCT exclusive worldwide marketing rights to
imaging products of Tianjin 3D, which include hardware for showing 3D video
programs and the programs themselves. Tianjin 3D products and services are
developed under the guidance of Prof. Li Chang, the leading scientist in 3-D
imaging technology in China, who holds numerous patents in imaging technology.
They are marketed through Tianjin 3D's marketing arm, called ChangsVision, which
is a DFCT subsidiary.

         ChangsVision currently markets set-top-boxes, 3D spectacles and 3D
video programs to mini cinemas in mainland China. Other planned sources of
revenue include the production of corporate videos (to begin before year-end),
advertising and e-commerce services available via interactive set-top-box
technology, and, eventually, the development of entertainment and educational
programming.

         DFCT first entered the high-tech arena in early 2000 when it joined
efforts with Tianjin 3D to develop a prototype set-top-box and software package
featuring 3-D imagery for DFCT's business-to-business e-commerce platform. The
company will shortly launch the first 3D web-site in order to demonstrate the
exciting 3D effect.

         The investment in Tianjin 3D Image Technology Ltd. provides a second
stream of revenue for DFCT. The company's primary revenue source is the
production and sale of hygienic paper products, including away-from-home
products such as jumbo roll tissue and hand towel rolls. Mini cinemas signing
contracts for 3D technology offer a cross-marketing opportunity for such DFCT
paper products.

         DF China Technology, Inc. (DFCT) is a Nasdaq-listed, Hong Kong-based
company engaged in multiple business ventures with Dransfield Holdings Limited,
a Hong Kong-based investment holding company (HKSE code: 632) with interests in
paper and related personal products; logistical services; and food and beverage.
Dransfield Holdings is also a major shareholder of DF China Technology Inc.
