FINANCING
Wuhan,
China, February 8, 2007 - United National Film Corporation ("UNFC")

which resulted in the parent company of Wuhan Blower Co., Ltd., a manufacturing
company located in the People's Republic of China, going public by succeeding to
UNFC's public company status. UNFC will change its name to Wuhan General Group
(China), Inc. and intends to apply for listing on Nasdaq in the near future.
UNFC's shares are currently listed on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board
("OTCBB") under the symbol "UNTF.OB". The companies will operate on a
consolidated basis, executing upon the current business plan of Wuhan Blower
and
its subsidiary, Wuhan Generating Equipment Co., Ltd. Immediately following
the
consummation of the share exchange transaction, UNFC closed a private placement
of its convertible preferred stock through which it received approximately
$24
million in gross offering proceeds, before payment of commissions and
fees.
In
the
share exchange transaction, UNFC issued 17,912,446 shares of UNFC common stock
to a company controlled by Mr. Xu Jie, the President and Chief Executive Officer
of Wuhan Blower. As a result of the share exchange, Wuhan Blower became a
subsidiary of UNFC and Mr. Xu became the controlling shareholder of UNFC. Mr.
Xu
became Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of UNFC and the executive
officers of Wuhan Blower will be elected as executive officers of UNFC. UNFC's

Wuhan
Blower is a China-based manufacturer of industrial blowers that are components
of steam driven electrical power generation plants. Through its Wuhan Generating
Equipment subsidiary, Wuhan Blower also manufactures industrial steam and water
turbines, also used principally in electrical power generation plants. The
company operates from a large, new headquarters and manufacturing facility
in a
campus setting in the Eastlake New Technology Development Zone in Wuhan and
operates sales offices in six cities in China.
For
the
nine months ended September 30, 2006 Wuhan Blower had consolidated net sales
of
approximately $11.6 million and consolidated net income of approximately $2.9
million.
Immediately
following the share exchange, UNFC consummated the sale of 10,287,554 shares
of
newly issued Series A Convertible Preferred Stock to nine institutional
investors for gross proceeds of approximately $24 million. Net proceeds will
be
used principally to fund the construction and equipment costs of the turbine
manufacturing facility at the company's Wuhan facility. The agreement includes
"make good" provisions based on the achievement of certain earnings per share
levels for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2007 and total net income
levels for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2008. In addition, UNFC
agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC covering the resale by
the
investors of the common stock issuable upon conversion of the preferred
stock.

Jie, the new Chief Executive Officer of UNFC stated, "We want to thank our
financial advisor, the Spring House Capital division of 1st

our
private financing and the going public transaction. These transactions have
given us access to the U.S. capital markets, with the intent of capitalizing
on
significant growth opportunities".
