(Infocast News) Vanessa Fan, Executive Director of Emperor Entertainment Group (8078), said that it spent $33 million of the proceeds raised from the listing to settle part of the $51.6 million consideration for 100% equity interest of EMG, changing the use of proceeds as stated in the prospectus.

Four singers of the company will issue Mandarin albums; and it intended to invest NT$20 million (nearly $4.5 million) for the promotion of Eson Chan Mandarin album. The company issued 76 albums last year; a similar number of issues is expected this year.
