(December 4, 2001, Hong Kong) - Thiz Technology
Group Limited ("Thiz" or the "Group"; stock
code: 8119) is proud to announce the launch of a new series of products
targeting various customers. This fulfills the Group's promise to
continuously launch innovative products so as to satisfy the growing
demand for cost-effective software.
Thiz aims to be the leading Linux application provider
in the world, providing affordable and easy-to-use application software
for individuals and SMEs. Thanks to the Group's impressive R&D
capability, four new products such as Click 2 Office, Fire Wall,
ERP and 瘦身教室 are introduced to broaden the Group's income base through
diversifying its product offerings.
(1) Click 2 Office
With the increasing need for mobility in the business world, Thiz
introduced Click 2 Office to allow users to work in the virtual
office anytime and at anywhere. Through Click 2 Office, users can
receive office messages by SMS from their mobile phones, access
to server files as well as chat with their colleagues conveniently.
Expected to launch in Dec 2001 for the price of HK$50,000 to $100,000
each, Click 2 Office is poised to receive tremendous support as
a valuable tool to facilitate the flow of information and the utilization
of resources more efficiently.
(2) Fire Wall
Computer viruses have caused damages and inconveniences for many
corporations, in particular for Microsoft platform, and SMEs are
particularly vulnerable to such attacks due to their limited resources
to invest in IT system protection. In light of the market demand,
Thiz introduced Fire Wall 1.0., a MS-Windows-compatible fire wall
that offers comprehensive virus detecting functions in order to
safeguard corporations' computer server from virus attacks.
(3) ERP
Thiz will also introduce a highly affordable Chinese ERP system
to help SMEs to better manage their resources during intense market
environment as such. The selling price of ERP is expected to be
approximately HK$3,000 to HK$5,000 per module. Users can use the
ERP system to control inventory levels, invoicing as well as logistics
so as to achieve cost savings for the company with a small amount
of investment.
(4) 「瘦身教室」
Besides catering to the needs of SMEs, Thiz will also focus on providing
for the education sector. Seeing the limited financial resources
of educational institutions to purchase hardware, the Group introduced
「瘦身教室」 to reduce their financial needs. This software enables multiple
terminals (without harddisk) to operate on one mainframe computer
simultaneously. Also, as an effort to understand and observe students'
behaviors, the main user (teacher) can monitor students' activities
from the terminal. With this software, students can learn interactively,
while teachers can also keep track of students' behaviors via the
computer
Commenting on the introduction of their latest
products, Mr. Li said, "The launch of the new products is to
fulfill our promise to our valuable customers to introduce new products
every few months. The short R&D lead-time demonstrates our R&D
capabilities in product development. With our new products, the
Group has successfully broadened its earning base."
Discussing other latest business developments,
Mr. Li said, "As we have outlined in the prospectus, we will
be establishing a Beijing office. Our target is to hire 20 people
to capture and to provide services for the enormous PRC market.
With tremendous support from the PRC Government to develop the Linux
operating system and application software, coupled with our attractive
product attributes, the Group is poised to capture the unlimited
opportunities ahead and to bring a substantial return to our shareholders."
