The available account centers on the filing, the alleged share issuance and dilution, and the requested liquidation; it does not provide further details on the proceedings or their resolution.

    Company response

    • Investigation — 文远知行

      我们已于1月20号收到诉讼,并已聘请开曼诉讼律师处理。
    • Denial — 文远知行

      王劲提起的诉讼理由明显不成立,我们相信该案原告诉讼请求将不会得到法院支持。
