 material change in our operations or the combined company’s principal operations in China, significant depreciation of the value of our or the combined company’s securities, or a complete hindrance of our or the combined company’s ability to offer securities to investors and cause the value of such securities to significantly decline or be worthless. The PRC government has significant authority to exert influence on the ability of a China -basedcompany to conduct its business, make or accept foreign investments or list on a U.S. stock exchange. The PRC government has published policies that significantly affected certain industries such as the education and internet industries, and we cannot rule out the possibility that it will in the future release regulations or policies regarding any industry that could adversely affect us or our potential business combination with a PRC operating business and the business, financial condition and results of operations of the combined company. The PRC government also initiated a series of regulatory actions and statements to regulate business operations in China with little advance notice, including cracking down on illegal activities in the securities market, adopting new measures to extend the scope of cybersecurity reviews, and expanding the efforts in anti -monopolyenforcement. Since these statements and regulatory actions are new, it is highly uncertain how soon legislative or administrative regulation making bodies will respond and what existing or new laws or regulations or detailed implementations and interpretations will be modified or promulgated, if any, and the potential impact such modified or new laws and regulations will have on the target company’s daily business operation or the ability to accept foreign investments and list on an U.S. or other foreign exchange. For example, according to the New Measures effective on February 15, 2022, network platform operators with personal information of more than one million users must apply for cyber security review to the Cyber Security Review Office when they go public abroad, and accordingly these companies may not be willing to list on a U.S. stock exchange or enter into a definitive business combination agreement with us. We face risks associated with regulatory approvals of the proposed business combination between us and the target, offshore offerings, anti -monopolyregulatory actions, and cybersecurity and data privacy. The PRC government may also intervene with or influence our or the combined company’s operations as the government deems appropriate to further regulatory, political and societal goals. Any such action, once taken by the PRC government, could result in a material change in our operations, including our search for a target business, and make it more difficult and costly for us to consummate a business combination with a target business operating in China,
