THE GOLDEN SHELL

[The Rainmaker]

Tracking SIVC Reverse Merger deal flow and pipeline.

The PR I really want to see come out will give me the name of next reverse merger client they just signed.

From 4/3 PR: Mr. Bickel arrived in China on March 6, 2008 and spent over two weeks traveling in China to attend meetings with management of S3's subsidiary operations and Redwood Capital's reverse merger clients.
As a result of the trip and subsequent meetings, S3 expects to announce a new Redwood Capital client in the next several days.

Here's why I really want to see this PR. Deal flow builing a pipeline to close one deal every quarter.

ENHD deal closed in January 2008(1st quarter)

Changzhou HaiJai Metallurgical(Looking for deal to close in 2nd quarter 2008)

Wuhan International Trade College(Looking for this deal to close in 3rd quarter of 2008)

Perfect timing now to sign another new client from China. This deal should close in fourth quarter of 2008.

This would insure four deals for 2008. Four closed mergers, four stock dividends to us. Tons of assets and cash going on to SIVC balance sheet. Throw in new Kensington Cross client that was just announced hopefully this will be our first quarter of 2009 deal.




Closed deals ENHD and Fushi.
Completed:
Energroup HldgsCorp. (Chuming)( 12/31/2007) has completed its reverse merger and is currently trading in the U.S. public markets under the symbol ENHD. Chuming investor presentation link:

SIVC DD Step by Step for SIVC it all comes together one piece at a time.

SIVC closed reverse merger deal ENHD what a monster, just filed their 10k and announced earnings of .67 per share.$$$$ 30 times earnings would put ENHD share price at $20.10. ENHD has 589 employees, 120 million in sales, earned over 11 million dollars.


That 30 times earnings valuation would make SIVC's ENHD shares worth over 10 million dollars...This is only one deal, imagine three deals per year of this quality. Imagine getting a dividend of some shares in three-four of these deals per year every year just because you own SIVC shares. SIVC trading under a penny is just plain wrong.

Next merger to close should be this one, another great company imho.

SIVC does Deals that make sense.

...Changzhou Haijie Metallurgical Machinery Manufacturing Co.'s fabrication, machinery and assembly products are already distributed internationally to a select few significant foreign companies, and with its planned entry into the U.S. capital markets, the company is expected to expand distribution to additional worldwide markets. The company is also expanding internally with additional property and a new 200-ton heavy-duty steel structure workshop due to open later this month.

Deals that big money boys are willing to fund. Funding locked in already for this SIVC merger deal.

S3 Investment Company Announces Redwood Capital Client Agreement: Hunter Wise Financial Group, LLC to Provide Investment Banking Services for Reverse Merger Transaction
S3 Investment Company, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: SIVC), a holding company with two subsidiaries doing business in the China market, today announced that Changzhou Haijie Metallurgical Machinery Manufacturing Co. Ltd. ("Haijie"), a reverse merger client of S3's Redwood Capital, Inc. subsidiary, has selected Hunter Wise Financial Group, LLC of Irvine, California to act as the exclusive investment banking firm for its reverse merger into the U.S. public markets.

S3 and Redwood Capital recently announced that the 2007 fiscal year revenues (audited) for Haijie exceeded $21.7 million.

Hunter Wise Financial Group, LLC and its wholly owned Broker/Dealer, Hunter Wise Securities, LLC, a FINRA and SIPC member firm, provide investment banking services including institutional finance, financial advisory services, international transactions, and mergers, acquisitions and divestitures. Changzhou Haijie Metallurgical Machinery Manufacturing Co. has engaged Hunter Wise Financial Group to act as its exclusive financial advisor, and Hunter Wise Securities to act as the exclusive placement agent in connection with its pursuit of a U.S. public listing.

"Hunter Wise has proven to be a highly effective investment banking partner for Redwood Capital's reverse merger clients, and we are pleased that they have been retained to handle the investment banking services for Changzhou Haijie Metallurgical Machinery Manufacturing Co.," said S3 Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Jim Bickel.

Redwood Capital, which provides an array of services to private Chinese companies and utilizes its extensive network of investment banking relationships to facilitate the client's listing on a U.S. public market through a reverse merger process, is currently assisting with Haijie's entrance into the U.S. markets.

One of the most time consuming parts of closing these Chinese reverse mergers is completing the audited financials. They can't do a PIPE financing or merge these Chinese Companies into fully reporting shells without audited financials.

S3 Investment Company, Inc has announced that the 2007 fiscal year revenues (audited) for Changzhou Haijie Metallurgical Machinery Manufacturing Co. Ltd.(Haijie), a reverse merger client of S3’s Redwood Capital, Inc. subsidiary, exceeded $21.7 million. An audit of the company’s financials is an important milestone in the planned reverse merger of Haijie into a U.S. public company. The 2007 audited revenue numbers are reflective of a March 31, 2007 fiscal year end for Changzhou Haijie Metallurgical Machinery Manufacturing Co.

“We believe that there will be significant interest in this company, and Redwood Capital is looking forward to completing the additional steps necessary to consummate the reverse merger transaction.

Wuhan College Reverse merger part 1: Throw in organic growth to these numbers along with growth by aquisition and Wuhan could be another baby NASDAQ stock in the making.

Anyone with some free time might want to translate some of these webpages. Wuhan Internatinal Trade College website new SIVC reverse merger client.

I took a quick peek, it says 13,000 students currently enrolled.
800 teachers, nice looking campus. 13,000 students even if they pay $2000 each for school that's 26 million in revenue.

S3 Investment Company Announces Wuhan International Trade College as New Reverse Merger Client for Redwood Capital Subsidiary
S3 Investment Company, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: SIVC)... signed Wuhan International Trade College, the second largest vocational education school in Hubei Province, as its newest client. Redwood Capital is in the business of assisting private Chinese companies to access the U.S. capital markets through reverse mergers into U.S. public companies.

Wuhan International Trade College http://www.whicu.com a for-profit institution that has cooperative ties to universities in North America and Europe, has developed an aggressive growth strategy, which is expected to include the construction of new buildings to accommodate a rapidly growing enrollment and the acquisition of another existing private college.

The demand for higher education in China is rapidly increasing with the growth of the middle class and the need for educated workers to fill positions in the expanding Chinese economy. However, according to a 2005 report from the American Council on Education, the higher education system does not meet the needs of 85% of China's college-aged population.

"We are pleased to announce Wuhan International Trade College as the new client for our Redwood Capital subsidiary, and we look forward to working toward its entrance into the U.S. public markets," said S3 chairman and chief executive officer Jim Bickel. "S3 has set a goal for Redwood Capital to reach 4 completed reverse merger transaction per year, and we believe that it is currently positioned to achieve a minimum of 3 in 2008.

Wuhan connect the dots here maybe...

S3 Investment Company, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: SIVC)... signed Wuhan International Trade College, the second largest vocational education school in Hubei Province, as its newest client.

Then figure out the largest vocational education school in Hubei Province since Wuhan is number two.

Then this...Wuhan's aggressive growth strategy, which is expected to include the construction of new buildings to accommodate a rapidly growing enrollment and the acquisition of another existing private college.

Wuhan could have plans to buy out number one school and corner the local market for Trade schools. Huge potential...

When SIVC's reverse merger deals close the Chinese companies are fully funded by Hunter Wise, Kensington Cross, Roth Capital, Barry Kitt etc.....PIPE financing at the time of the reverse merger is how SIVC does it....this money gives SIVC's China clients a competitive edge over their local competition who don't have American Venture Capital backing them.

The important thing about Fushi deal is that was the prototype. From that first deal SIVC was able to develop a niche in the China Reverse merger market. Now with Hunter Wise, Kensington Cross, Roth Capital, Barry Kitts and China Pinnacle in SIVC's corner the big boys are jumping on SIVC's current and future deals.

Just to give everyone a another example of the high quality of SIVC's reverse merger deals.

Roth Capital big money players in Newport Beach Ca. Roth funded 264 million dollars worth of China Deals. Here's where it get's really interesting for SIVC.

Update for board

I called IR and asked him if Kensington Cross was replacing Hunter Wise as SIVC's Hedge Fund of Choice. He said definitely not, Kensington Cross deals etc. were in addition to Hunter Wise not instead of.

SIVC-S3 Investment Company Announces First Targeted Transaction Under Redwood Capital Agreement With Kensington Cross

Apr 9, 2008 09:34:02 (ET)

DANVILLE, CA, Apr 09, 2008 (MARKET WIRE via COMTEX) -- S3 Investment Company, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: SIVC), a holding company with two subsidiaries doing business in the China market, today announced that under the agreement between S3 subsidiary Redwood Capital, Inc. and Kensington Cross, Ltd., a boutique U.S. investment banking firm, to fund private equity transactions ranging from $20 million to $100 million (US), an initial deal has been identified.

The targeted private Chinese company is an industrial warehousing operation seeking to expand its reach both within China and internationally.

We are still getting another PR with name of new SIVC/Hunter Wise reverse merger client.

Todays news was great because know we found out we will also be getting another slew of deals from Kensington Cross on top of Hunter Wise deals.

strongly believe that several of SIVC reverse merger deals will ultimately end up trading on NASDAQ. When in the history of the pinksheets has anyone ever gotten share dividends of NASDAQ companies because they owned a pinkie.

SIVC belongs on a much higher exchange and should be trading at much higher prices. Luckily cream ultimately rises to the top and SIVC looks like the cream of the crop to me.

Thanks, they always say follow the big money players if you want to find the big money deals. SIVC's fingerprints keep showing up in the big money boys deals.

What type of Company does your company keep. In SIVC's case it appears they are surrounding themselves with all the right big time major league players in the China Reverse merger arena.

Equally impressive is the fact these big money players like Roth and Hunter Wise keep funding SIVC's deals. Great sign of more big things to come.
