On the afternoon of June 14, Worldway Beijing held a grand launch event for the latest U.S. EB-5 investment immigration project, the California AE Bioenergy project, at the China World Hotel. Dozens of investors in attendance responded enthusiastically to the EB-5 project, which boasts numerous significant advantages such as already having I-526 approval, and highly praised Worldway's professional capability in selecting premium projects.
The California AE Bioenergy project is a high-quality project launched globally by Worldway following the successful sell-out of six major projects within five months in 2014, and it is another new energy project introduced by Worldway following the California Solar Power project. For this Beijing launch, Worldway specially invited Mr. Eric McAfee, Chairman and CEO of AE Advanced Fuels, the U.S. project developer, to provide an authoritative explanation in person. Dr. Winner Xing, President of Worldway, was also present to analyze how investors can correctly select EB-5 projects.
Huge Market Demand for New Energy Projects, Promising Prospects
Mr. Eric McAfee, Chairman and CEO of AE Advanced Fuels, who traveled from the United States, first introduced the strong support from the U.S. federal government and the California state government for new energy. In order to reduce carbon emissions and dependence on imported oil through ethanol-blended gasoline, the California government issued a mandate in 2010: every gallon of gasoline sold must be blended with 10% ethanol. California's annual demand for ethanol will reach as high as 1.5 billion gallons, while AE Advanced Fuels' annual production is 60 million gallons, indicating a massive supply gap for ethanol producers in California.
As the developer of the California AE Bioenergy project, AE Advanced Fuels is the most advanced ethanol biofuel plant in the United States and the first company in the U.S. capable of using two different feedstocks (corn and sorghum) to produce ethanol, which greatly improves its ability to adapt to fluctuations in raw material prices. Ethanol is one of the new energy sources strongly supported by all levels of the U.S. government; therefore, the California AE Bioenergy project can quickly obtain approval from the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), and its employment model and employment data have also been recognized by the USCIS.
AE Advanced Fuels is a leading enterprise in the ethanol production industry with promising future development prospects, having already achieved profitability in the first quarter of 2014.
Why Worldway Recommends I-526 Approved Projects
When investing in U.S. immigration, the key lies in selecting the right EB-5 project. Why does Worldway recommend the California AE Bioenergy project to investors? Dr. Winner Xing, President of Worldway, provided an in-depth analysis. The California AE Bioenergy project is an I-526 approved project that is rare to come by, which means that as long as there are no issues with the investor's personal and family documents, everyone's application will be approved, and the processing speed for everyone will be accelerated. Currently, 3 investors have already had their I-526 applications approved through this project.
The project uses the IMPLAN employment model recognized by the USCIS, with an employment surplus as high as 82%, meaning each investor creates 18.2 jobs, while only 10 jobs are required to remove conditions and obtain a permanent green card via I-829. Another major highlight is that the entire investment can be returned in just 4 years, with a short capital occupation period, significantly reducing risk. It also sets up a "safety valve" of mortgage guarantees for EB-5 loans, using project assets equivalent to 2.9 times the EB-5 loan as collateral, with a full guarantee from the NASDAQ-listed parent company, laying a solid foundation for capital security.
In addition to EB-5 funds, the indirect shareholders of the project developer, AE Advanced Fuels, include world-renowned companies such as the Virgin Group, the Yucaipa Green Fund which manages the California Public Employees' Retirement System, and Third Eye Capital which manages a large Canadian pension fund. It can be said that EB-5 investors are investing alongside business giants to reap the reward of U.S. green cards for their entire families.
The global launch of this high-quality U.S. investment immigration project attracted interviews and reports from well-known media outlets such as Sohu and Xinhua. The response from investors on-site was very enthusiastic, with active participation in the Q&A session to gain an in-depth understanding of the project's advantages. An investor who had consulted on numerous EB-5 projects stated that the I-526 approval of the California AE Bioenergy project was extremely attractive, strengthening his confidence in pursuing U.S. investment immigration, and he was very grateful to have learned more about project selection through the Worldway seminar. After the meeting, investors engaged in one-on-one consultations with Worldway advisors, leading to active sign-ups. For more information about the seminar, please call the hotline 010-59799665
