QIAO XING UNIVERSAL TELEPHONE, INC. FORMS
STRATEGIC ALLIANCE WITH CHINESE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY ACADEMY
TO DEVELOP ELECTRONIC MAPPING TECHNOLOGY
HUIZHOU, CHINA (March 8, 2000) -- Qiao Xing Universal Telephone, Inc. (NASDAQ
NMS: XING) today announced an agreement with the Geography and Resource
Institution (GRI) of the Chinese Science and Technology Academy to jointly
develop: 1) an atlas, or map, of digital networks; and 2) a geographic
information system (GIS) which maps telecommunication networks. GRI is the
leading provider of cartography technologies in China, including GIS for
underground communications networks, electric power transmission lines, and
electronic cartography software.
Under terms of the preliminary agreement, Qiao Xing would provide funding, and
GRI would engage in R&D. The proposed digital network atlas would be offered
through an E-business platform and would utilize space graphics and
high-precision digital effects. The telecommunication network GIS would be
utilized by telecommunications companies to design, build, and manage networks
and transmission lines, including maintenance of call and system operation.
Mr. Riu Lin Wu, Chairman of the Board of Qiao Xing, said: "Qiao Xing would bring
capital resources and valuable telecommunications industry marketing experience.
GRI would provide expertise in GIS research and related software development.
Through this proposed alliance we could offer practical, commercially viable
applications of GIS and network mapping technologies."
In August 1995, Qiao Xing Universal Telephone, Inc. became the first telephone
manufacturer in China to receive the ISO 9001 Quality System Accreditation
award. The Company currently produces 165 models of corded telephones and 25
cordless models. Its sales network is extensive with 1,350 retail store
