ASICME has a professional Internet service and sales team led by co-founder of xiaonei.com (a SNS well-known as Chinese Facebook), and the VP of sales of meituan.com (one of the most famous group-buying websites in China), which allow us get about 22,800 BTC sales in only two months. This is an unprecedented achievement in the history of bitcoin mining equipment selling.
[...]
To get around the bottleneck, we acquired a small ASIC chip research and development team. By developing on our own and some private channels, we get a few precious ASIC chips. These chips can meet the early demand of bitcoin miners and hash rate. [...] The first batch miners of our customers (ordered before June 9th 24:00, GMT+8 time zone) will be dispatched in the period from August 10th to August 30th, 2013.

Our team, ASICME, started to run business since June 2013. According to our financial data, the sales are 8318.81 BTC in June and 13,072.75 BTC in July, respectively.
Hi ASICME.COM,
so to my understanding you sold pre-orders for around 22k Bitcoin through meituan.com.
1. Can you provide a reference to check those numbers?
2. Can you provide any information that guarantees you are able to produce and ship miners for those alleged sales?
3. Is it correct, that you are - at the moment - unable to produce all miners due to delays of chip delivery from ngzhang?
4. How many are "a few precious ASIC chips"?
5. Did you start to ship the first miners yesterday (resp. 2013-08-10)?
Furthermore:
6. Can you provide any reference that Mr. Yang Yaorui was involved in founding Xiaonei/Renren? Please forgive me, but
wikipedia.org didn't list him and a not-so-in-depth websearch only revealed Bitcoin related stuff to this name.
7. Can you provide any proof that you are who you claim to be and the people involved in this project?
Anyway. Let's conquest the sea of stars. Cheers!
We sold our bitcoin miners through Taobao.com, not meituan.com (but one VP of meituan.com is our team member). For your questions:
1. This is our online store in Taobao
http://meetend.taobao.com/ , if you can read Chinese, you can check the data here.
2. We have already sent the first batch of miners, and here are some news about us:
http://asicme.com/en/news , if you cannot read Chinese, you can check the pictures and use google translate.
3. Yes. Because our customers ordered the miners based on ngzhang's avalon chips.
4. Several thousand, most of them are not ngzhang's ASIC chips.
5. Yes, and all first batch customers will be received our miners in 2 or 3 weeks.
6. The co-founders of xiaonei.com are more than 3, and Yaorui Yang is one of them, it's almost commonsense in Chinese internet area. But he has left xiaonei.com in 2007, so it's a little bit difficult to get proofs from the company now. We can provide some other evidences:
1) here is an report about us:
http://www.techinasia.com/depth-bitcoin-hands-chinas-average-zhou/2) From wikipedia, you can see the Chinese characters for xiaonei.com is 校内网. Here is Yaorui Yang's Sina Weibo address
http://weibo.com/meetend , sina weibo is known as Chinese twitter, and they provide third-party verification. His verification is 殊途同归创始人，校内网共同创始人, which means"Founder of Meet End, and Co-founder of Xiaonei.com", google translate may help.
7. Can you give us some ideas about how to prove it?
Thank you for your interest.
