The Issuer’s Class A ordinary shares are listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “RTC.”
Item 2. Identity and Background.
This Schedule 13D is being jointly filed by the following persons pursuant to Rule 13d-1(k) promulgated under the Act:
| (1) | Mr. Gangjiang Li, a citizen of the People’s Republic of China, the former chairman of the board of directors and chief executive officer of the Issuer, with his business address at 24F, A1 South Building, No. 32 Fengzhan Road, Yuhuatai District, Nanjing, the People’s Republic of China; |
| (2) | Jia Jia BaiJiaYun Ltd (“Jia Jia BaiJiaYun”), a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, with its registered address at Star Chambers, Wickhams Cay II, P.O. Box 2221, Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands; |
| (3) | Jia Jia JP Limited (“Jia Jia JP”), a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, with its registered address at Trident Chambers, P.O. Box 146, Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands; and |
| (4) | Jia Jia Ltd (“Jia Jia”), a company incorporated under the laws of the British Virgin Islands, with its registered address at Start Chambers, Wickham's Cay Il, P.O. Box 2221, Road Town, Tortola, British Virgin Islands. |
Mr. Gangjiang Li, Jia Jia BaiJiaYun, Jia Jia JP and Jia Jia are collectively referred to herein as the “Reporting Persons.”
Jia Jia BaiJiaYun is the record holder of the ordinary shares reported on this Schedule 13D. Each of Jia Jia JP and Jia Jia holds 90% and 10% of Jia Jia BaiJiaYun’s outstanding shares, respectively. Jia Jia JP is beneficially owned by Mr. Gangjiang Li through a trust established under the laws of Singapore. Mr. Gangjiang Li is the settlor of the trust and Mr. Gangjiang Li and his family members are the beneficiaries of the trust. Jia Jia Ltd is the sole member of the investment committee of the trust and is wholly owned by Mr. Gangjiang Li.
None of the Reporting Persons has, during the last five years, been (1) convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (2) a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Considerations
The information set forth in Item 4 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference into this Item 3.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
On July 18, 2022, Fuwei Films (Holdings) Co., Ltd. (“Fuwei”), the predecessor the Issuer, entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with BaiJiaYun Limited (“BJY”), pursuant to which a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fuwei would be merged with and into BJY (the “Merger”), with BJY being the surviving entity. Upon completion of the Merger on December 23, 2022, shareholders of BJY exchanged all of the issued and outstanding shares of BJY immediately prior to the Merger for newly issued shares of Fuwei in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, based on a conversation ratio that each share of BJY received 0.7807324 ordinary shares of Fuwei, and BJY became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fuwei. In addition, the Issuer changed its name from “Fuwei Films (Holdings) Co., Ltd.” to “Baijiayun Group Ltd” and its ticker from “FFHL” to “RTC” upon the completion of the Merger.
Each share of BJY issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger and held by Mr. Gangjiang Li through Jia Jia BaiJiaYun, being a total of 35,935,346 shares of BJY, was canceled in exchange for the right to receive 0.7807324 Class B ordinary shares of the Issuer upon the completion of the Merger. As a result, Mr. Gangjiang Li beneficially owned 28,055,888 Class B ordinary shares of the Issuer through Jia Jia BaiJiaYun.
On July 12, 2023, 1,000,000 Class B ordinary shares held by Jia Jia BaiJiaYun Ltd were converted into the same number of Class A ordinary shares.
Mr. Gangjiang Li resigned as a member and the chairman of board of directors and chief executive officer of the Issuer for personal reasons, effective from January 22, 2024. Ms. Qiong Ni, the spouse of Mr. Gangjiang Li, was appointed as a new director to serve on the board of directors, effective from January 22, 2024.
