evolving and changes may result in a material change to your operations and the value of
your ordinary shares if you complete a business combination with a target in China.
Please revise to provide prominent disclosure about the legal and operational risks
associated with a majority of your directors and officers being based in or having
significant ties to China. Such risks should include uncertainties regarding the
enforcement of laws and that rules and regulations in China can change quickly with little
advance notice. Your disclosure should make clear whether these risks could result in a
material change in your search for a target company, as well as the value of the securities
you are registering for sale.

Risk Factors Summary, page 26
In your summary of risk factors, you have disclosed the risks to investors related to
acquiring and operating a business in China. Please revise your disclosure to also include
the risks that one of your sponsors and the majority of your directors and officers
being based in or having significant ties to China poses to investors. In particular, describe
the significant regulatory, liquidity, and enforcement risks with cross-references to the
more detailed discussion of these risks in the prospectus. For example, specifically discuss
risks arising from the legal system in China, including risks and uncertainties regarding
the enforcement of laws and that rules and regulations in China can change quickly with
little advance notice; and the risk that the Chinese government may intervene or influence
your search for a target company or completion of your initial business combination at 6.

any time, which could result in a material change in your operations and/or the value of
the securities you are registering for sale.

7.Please revise your risk factors to address the current risks associated with one of your
sponsors and your executive officers and directors being located in or having ties to the
PRC. Given the Chinese government’s significant oversight and discretion over the
conduct and operations of your business, please revise to describe any material impact
that intervention, influence, or control by the Chinese government has or may have on
your business or on the value of your securities. Highlight separately the risk that the
Chinese government may intervene or influence your operations at any time, which could
result in a material change in your operations and/or the value of your securities. Also,
given recent statements by the Chinese government indicating an intent to exert more
oversight and control over offerings that are conducted overseas and/or foreign
investment in China-based issuers, acknowledge the risk that any such action could
significantly limit or completely hinder your ability to offer or continue to offer securities
to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless.
We remind you that, pursuant to federal securities rules, the term “control” (including the
terms “controlling,” “controlled by,” and “under common control with”) means “the
possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the
management and policies of a person, whether through the ownership of voting securities,
by contract, or otherwise.”
8.Please address any impact PRC law or regulations may have on the cash flows associated
with the business combination transaction specifically, including shareholder redemption
rights.
General Risk Factors, page 69
9.We note your disclosure on page 71 that by restricting your investment of proceeds in
cash or securities, including U.S. Government securities or shares of money market funds
registered under the Investment Company Act and regulated pursuant to rule 2a-7 of that
Act, you intend to avoid being deemed an "investment company," and that you may be
deemed to be subject to the Investment Company Act if you do not invest the proceeds as
described. Please clarify that notwithstanding an investment of proceeds in government
securities, you could nevertheless be considered to be operating as an unregistered
investment company. Where you disclose the risk that you may be considered to be
operating as an unregistered investment company, please confirm that if your facts and
circumstances change over time, you will update your disclosure to reflect how those
changes impact the risk that you may be considered to be operating as an unregistered
investment company. Also revise disclosure on page 72 to refer to the rights, rather than
warrants.
Underwriting, page 142
10.We note that the EBC founder shares have been deemed compensation by FINRA. Please
revise your underwriter's compensation table to include the EBC founder shares. Please
refer to Item 508(e) of Regulation S-K for guidance.
