>> LeTV��s Request �C arrange for President Xi to visit LeTV��s L.A. facilities
>> President Xi will be making a stop in L.A. during his visit where LeTV has recently acquired an R&D center committing to invest between US$3-5 billion towards the research and design of electrical cars and intelligent vehicles.  LeTV has enlisted our help to arrange for President Xi to visit their L.A. facilities, or, if that cannot be arranged, for Mr. Jia Yueting to speak at any of the meet-and-greet functions to be attended by President Xi, whether in L.A. or San Francisco or elsewhere. 
>>  
>> Next Steps
>> LeTV will be sending over relevant materials in the coming days which I will compile and summarise for everyone and we can then discuss how to best process this delicate request using our resources.

>> What��s in it for BHR and its shareholders
>> A one-time advisory fee payable to BHR is being discussed and we would be provided with the opportunity to co-invest with LeTV and Beijing Automotive Group (BAIC) and become a shareholder in the L.A. / Silicon Valley businesses.  More importantly, this would mark the beginning of a long-term and comprehensive cooperation with LeTV and an opportunity to participate in all of its future activities.  LeTV has been busily expanding its empire through overseas acquisitions, this year alone, it has acquired significant stakes in two HK-listed companies, 18% in CoolPad for US$350 million becoming its second largest shareholder, and 35% in Beijing Media becoming its largest shareholder.
