Amendments to 2/18 filings with Florida SOS were submitted on Friday and posted today. Can someone read what changes were made? I'm driving

I identified the company months ago.
I still have 1M shares for the potential of what may still come, but the hope was reduction would be done through the courts not R/S, we shouldn't try to rewrite history.
RCRanger03's XMET Take It Or Leave It Post
Like my DD Thread this is going to be a very long post
Disclaimer: I'm posting not to push people one way or another. You all make your own decisions, and have your own risk/reward tolerances. I've been here since .0002, I've posted all of my DD freely and honestly, because I truly believe that the rising tide lifts all boats. I held every share once I got onto free shares back in November until I trimmed today. I'm posting this because I've been asked by many to do so, and I think I may have beneficial experience to share.
I decided that it was worth it to take another $50k in profits and trim my position to 1M. Note that I held everything when those same shares were worth more than twice that amount, because of the potential. I've kept 1M because of the potential, but my top 2 reasons for trimming are:
#1 I believe the R/S is legitimate (more on this in a minute) and I think while value is preserved shareholder confidence isn't. I've been down this road with Lazar and I lost.
#2 I believe the Merging company is Shenzhen Atsugi Wealth Management Co., Ltd. which is a company of $15 Million USD/ 100M YUAN and a subsidiary of Shenzhen Qiao Financial Holdings. My hope had been that it was the entire pie of what I estimated as roughly ~$250M USD in Shenzhen Qiao Holdings, and because its only 16% of that I feel it has 16% of the potential). It also seems to rule out the REIT angle that was my peak interest lately.
I may be wrong about both of the top 2 things, and this may progress to the highest potential, which is why I kept 1M shares (I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I was completley wrong about this after all the work I put into it, literally 100 hours minimum, I started to learn to read Chinese for XMET research), but in order to illustrate my reason #1 I'm going to quote a post I made in my home forum, with some screenshots corresponding tweets I made about a previous .000 to Penny Lazar play QUTR which became BRRN. I denied the reality and it cost me money and time/opportunity cost. Look at the language I use and what many people are saying today.
Yes the reason I believe that the XMET R/S is real, is I went through this whole rollercoaster of emotions with QUTR/BRRN and chose poorly IMO. Let me explain
1) SEC filings led us to believe Swiss Billionaire Investment Firm that had made a huge early investment profit in PLUG was merging in. This eventually played out and we were correct. (Much Like here in XMET)
2) NVSOS filings were made for a name change to Born Inc and 1:1000 R/S (like today with XMET)
3) Many people posted shady looking screenshots of the documents (the same exact twitter people that posted them today), I got the filings for myself picked them apart and said they seem like bullshit. Narrator: They weren't All the while there was a crash and a recovery like today in XMEt (although I'll admit not as fully as XMET did today). Look at the following screenshots my progression through the following days.
4) 1 week later R/S showed up in FINRA, and people bailed (the ones who shouted diamond hands! right now) plummeting my investment to 50% of it's previous value. They got out when they realized they were wrong. They didn't care about my losses. Don't assume that other people will, because they shouldn't have to, it's up to you to be informed and make decisions best for you
5) I thought hey Swiss Billionaires who were early on PLUG and made a fortune, maybe it's worth holding on through the split because the value is the same just less upside. (With XMET it's Chinese Real Estate Millionaires)
6) Held through split and ended up with only 400 shares at $4 PPS and got charged a $40 fee by TDA to reverse split the shares (which is lame if you ask me, but TDA don't give a damn)
7) Share Price actually went up and I could have exited at a wash, but I thought hey look at me I was smart and didn't get shook out.
8 ) Nothing followed the rise, no PRs, no filings, silence. and it bleddddddd out back down to 40% of my original value.
9 ) I decided to hold until something happened after that, which took 4 or 5 months where it bled some more, but popped up a little on an 8k so I thought maybe finally I'd get back around to making some money.
10 ) The 8k was to say that the company was a fashion app for rich people to buy rich people fashion stuff. Not what potential I signed up for at all
I sold at 40% value, it's now 4x less than that $1 as of today. Just go ask the Born Inc Investorhub board how they feel about this process. Ask horst who was the RCRanger03 of QUTR. This may be completely different, but more and more this looks like the Lazar playbook and I say that while holding PFMS which was attempted to be R/S in the same way as QUTR was, the ZOOMOUT deal just fell through. For XMET I thought that the Share Reduction Theory (which still seems right to me) might shelter it, but nope we've been through steps #1 - 3 so far exactly the same. It cost me about $50k - $70k in additional potential profits to find out if this would be different. I think I can accept that risk when the reward might have been magnitudes more, and I'm still walking away with $50k and a 1M share insurance plan if I'm just dead wrong. Going to start my ROTH IRA project with that and pay off the house...
Blur I'm not arguing just posting my thoughts. I'm still holding here as well.
The name of the new company is Houmu Holding Ltd, but I think it's accommodating the existing business Shenzhen Atsugi Wealth Management Co., Ltd.
I'll post more detail tonight as I always have without judgement or direction. I just like people to be informed so they effectively use their trading framework
Shenzhen Atsugi Wealth Management Co., Ltd.
That's I'm going to post a longer post about my position here tonight when I get home from work, kids to bed, spend time with my wife.
In the meantime if you want take look at my DD threads on investorhub, you can see where they fit into the larger picture of Shenzhen Qiao Holdings. It's a piece of the pie instead of the whole thing, but one of the bigger ones.

Samtrade Custodian on Samtrade FX website now
I think the custodian aspect comes back around to this article from July and them acquiring new licensing in Europe and Australia https://www.asiaone.com/business/samtrade-fx-obtains-financial-conduct-authority-fca-and-australian-securities-and
Samtrade FX Obtains Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) and Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) Licences to Strengthen Global Footprint
JULY 28, 2020
PUBLISHED AT 10:05 PM
PR NEWSWIRE ASIA
Online trading brokerage continues to ensure client confidence in every trade through extensive fund security coverage, while expanding its presence in Europe and Asia
SINGAPORE, July 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Samtrade FX, a leading online trading brokerage that is committed to providing traders with safe, easy and low-cost access to Forex and Contracts for Differences (CFD) trading, today announced that it has been registered and authorised as an Appointed Representative by the FCA (reference number: 929921), the conduct regulator for financial services firms and financial markets in the United Kingdom (UK). This latest licence reinforces Samtrade FX's ability to operate as an authorised and trusted financial services provider for securities in multiple territories.
As a major regulatory body that performs a supervisory role over financial institutions in the UK, the FCA secures an appropriate degree of protection for consumers and maintains the market integrity of the UK financial system. Anti-money laundering (AML), for instance, is a key focus of the FCA. To ensure it continues to adhere to the FCA's specific AML compliance regulations – such as monitoring for suspicious activity and performing risk assessments, Samtrade FX has recently appointed Vic Tham, a veteran in the field of risk and compliance, as its Global Chief Risk and Compliance Officer.
In addition, Samtrade FX announced that it has obtained an Australian Financial Services (AFS) licence (registration number: 001281861) from the ASIC, an independent Australian government body that acts as Australia's corporate regulator.
With the FCA and AFS licences, Samtrade FX can now offer financial product advice, provide custodial or depository services, and deal in securities on behalf of new and existing clients in Europe and Asia. These licences supplement the International Business Companies (IBC) licence granted to Samtrade FX (registration number: 25290 IBC 2019) by the Financial Services Authority of Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, to allow the business of dealing in securities as a Principal. Samtrade FX is also regulated (registration number: M19977589) by the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC) as a Money Services Business (MSB).
"Since incorporation, ensuring trust and confidence in every trade has been central in everything that we do," said Sam Goh, Founder and CEO, Samtrade FX. "These added layers of regulation – on top of the existing licences that Samtrade FX already holds, reinforces our commitment toward setting the highest possible standards in corporate governance, trading experience, and client satisfaction. It also enhances SamAideTM, which offers robust fund security for clients to trade with a peace of mind."
SamAideTM is Samtrade FX's Secured Fund Coverage framework that consists of five pillars – depositing all clients' monies in segregated custodian accounts under a strict legal trust framework with proper custodian functions; third-party insurance with The Eye Protection Centre (EPC) for additional fund protection; professional indemnity protection with Howden Insurance Brokers; Samtrade FX being a member of The Financial Commission, which acts as a neutral and independent committee that fairly reviews and resolves disputes within the financial services industry in the Forex market; and negative balance protection on all accounts.
Established in 2015, Samtrade FX has progressively extended its operations and market reach, which now spans Europe, Southeast Asia, and Greater China, as well as the delivery of all-round, personalised services to more than 50,000 clients and more than 150 partners.
"Our comprehensive technological infrastructure has ensured prompt execution of client trades without complications and minimal technical issues. This technology set-up, together with our continuous rigour in adhering to new regulatory standards, is the foundation on which we conduct business and differentiate ourselves, and this approach has been validated by an ever-growing list of retail and institutional clients turning to us for impeccable services," said Goh.
The Samtrade FX trading platform provides real-time quotes and trade execution, advanced charting with multiple time frames, pip value calculators, and financial market news, etc. To ensure seamless trading experiences for clients, Samtrade FX uses the MetaTrader 4 platform, which is available for download on Windows, Apple Store and Google Play. It also offers its own mobile application, SamAppTM, which allows clients to access key functions like funding, account details and transaction history, etc, and is available for download on Google Play. SamAppTM will be made available on the Apple Store in the coming weeks.

Treasure trove of recent Qiaoshi Holding Group Articles
Somebody on Stocktwits figured out how to wiggle into the Chinese version of WeChat (Weixin) for Qiaoshi Holdings Group which is what I believe XMET is R/Ming into based on the address for Wei Tian in the 8k. It's been a goldmine of more recent articles than I'd been able to find before. I use Chrome's Google translate extension into simplified Chinese.

Blur I can't respond to your private messages, but I don't know what you're talking about regarding this post about XMET's relationship with Shenzhen Qiao.
To be clear though, I'm just a dude on the internet who googles too much. Nothing I post is for sure, I just post what I find, and it's given me confidence in my own holdings. I also point out when people interpret it different than I intended like I haven't fully confirmed connection between XMET and Shenzhen Union Worldwide.
Good luck to everyone!
The strongest connection for the buy Wei Tian is Shenzhen Qiao Holdings which matches the address perfectly and has a Tian Wei as a management level employee.
One of Shenzhen Qiao's Partner organizations is Shenzhen Union Worldwide which is a good deal larger than Shenzhen Qiao but in the similar vein of holdings and has a Tian Wei n the board of directors. They are already listed on a Chinese exchange.
I've not been able to further connect the dots between those two Tian Wei so I'm much more confident in Shenzhen Qiao Holdimgs being our buyer.
MM putting bid over ask currently, T Trade went through
David Lazar has had XMET on his mind!
I was doing my nightly refresh on my holdings, and when I get to XMET I always try something new to figure out a new detail about where we are going (other than up lol)
Today almost gave me a heart attack when Wei Tian turned up as a President/CEO/Treasurer in another SEC 8k Filing, from 2 weeks ago!
On close examination it's seems to be a mistake and the immediately followed up with an amended 8k/A that replaces the name and take Wei Tian out. Still I like to think Lazar daydreaming about XMET just like us while doing filings for other tickers.
Enjoy for yourselves: https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/ftgi/disclosure
ORiginal 8k with Wei Tian: https://www.otcmarkets.com/filing/html?id=14638916&guid=gCCKUpULUx2QNyh
Amended 8k with him removed: https://www.otcmarkets.com/filing/html?id=14639287&guid=gCCKUpULUx2QNyh
It did get pulled it auto collating websites (including Bloomberg) all over the place now list Wei Tian as President of Finotec
7th day in a row updating the SS w/ no change

App for Rich people to find Rich people stuff
Also I want to temper things with that this was exactly how excited I felt about QUTR when we started unpacking the buyer and the connections, and I got absolutely wrecked by a name change R/S combo and utter silence since. I still have that holding at it's split size, but there's no such thing as 100% in this game.
Got to stay vigilant and not take it for granted
Why is that?
The one document I didn't post was a records search for that kid of info. Cost me 11 SGP and the result was absolutely nothing lol
Probably going to have to do what I did on XMET and reverse engineer some Chinese queries
Have at it!
Samtrade Singapore.gov Business Profile Documents
If anyone needed further confirmation that Samtrade is what is being referenced in the NVSOS update. I went ahead a paid for the official business reports on SamtradeFX and SamTrade Custodian.
SamTrade Custodian Documents (note the home address of Goh Nai De)
And then now the Samtrade FX documents (same home address for Goh Nai De)
Yup! Good enough that last week I removed my GTC $0.01 sell that had been in place since I sold onto free shares (with profit) in the first run to .0028
Keeping the 7M I have left intact for now.
OTCMarkets SS update in iBox
They've done an update (but no change in the numbers) every day for the last week. I snapshot when I'm checking after work.
I'm still here from the .0002s
Court Register Update 2-8-21
I was out of pocket spending all day today celebrating my daughter's 6 birthday as she requested.
Did anyone notice they continued the status check again. I had expected they would do so, but hadn't had it confirmed until this evening. Wanted to get this out in the newstream so bashers and flippers didn't try to spring it on people as bad news early in the market tomorrow morning.
Register screenshot and Minutes below
First I've seen that site, good find. Did you get there from the Samtrade main site, search, or by another path?
Lol I wish I knew! I've not been DDing new positions the past 2 months. Too much activity in what I'm already in. I think my plan is to sell some positions in Late Feb/Early March and go shopping then if the market is still cooking like this, but for now I'm in

Vic Tham was recently hired by Samtrade, but he is founder and managing partner of another capital investment firm. His company was the previously at the address on NVSOS filings, and then Samtrade Custodian came over.
It reeks of acquisition/merger and then IPO in US to me
Vic Tham is the piece that sealed the deal for me. I'm creeping on him hard , have Google alerts set up with his name
BigToken IR still hasn't gotten back to me, which is a little disappointing. Hopefully they're hard at work getting that 8k filed
I have also have 1M at $0.10 , $0.50 and $1
I'm removing my $0.01 1M GTC thats been there since December.
Let's go to $0.05
PFMS SS continue to update daily
They're keeping it fresh for a reason.
The TA is updating the SS on OTC Markets Daily (no changes), since I'm checking daily as well I'll keep it current in iBox
Nothing in NVSOS tonight so far
