(PR NEWSWIRE) Smooth Global (China) Holdings, Inc. Announces Renewal of Contract with China Unicom Group Beijing Branch for PayPhone Business in 2008

BEIJING, Jan. 22 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- The Smooth Global (China) Holdings,
Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: SMGH) ("SMGH" or "Company") a leader in providing
International Call Forwarding Service in China, announced today that the
Company is negotiating with China Unicom Group Beijing branch to extend and
improve the contract for its PayPhone Business from 2007. We are expecting
favorable terms for our future expansion not only in payphone area but other
telecommunication value added services as well.
When a customer uses the payphone or VoIP phone to make a call, the usage
fee is calculated and charged by the number of pulses (one minute intervals)
made in accordance with the government fixed tariffs or government guidance
tariffs, whichever is applicable. QTC, one of our subsidiaries, immediately
bills and receives the usage fee from the customers and the independent
collection agent centralizes the cash proceeds from each payphone and deposits
into the bank on a daily basis, across the network. China Netcom and QTC
monthly calculates the share of QTC's revenue on the varied basis from 40% to
60% of the usage fee received from the customers, depending upon the usage of
the customers. The independent collection agent is then authorized to remit
the total proceeds of usage fee to China Netcom, and QTC immediately invoices
its share of revenue to China Unicom.
Ms. Zheng Shuying, President of SMGH, commented, "We are pleased to
continue our good relationship with China Unicom Group Beijing branch and
extend our contract from 2007 to 2008. The renewed contract will improve our
financial result and we also negotiate with other brand name Companies in
China to extend their contracts and provide additional services. The Company
will announce details of these contracts near term. Since we merged last year,
we have developed our business faster than we were expecting and improved our
position as leading Company for International Call Forwarding in China."
