Item 4.01 Changes in Company's Certifying Accountant.
(1) Previous Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
| (i) | On August 30, 2017, Datasea Inc. (the “Company”) dismissed its independent registered public accounting firm, Anton & Chia, LLP (“A&C”). |
| (ii) | The decision to change independent registered public accounting firm was approved by the Company’s board of directors. |
| (iii) | The report of A&C on the Company’s financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2016 did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles, except that the audit report contained an uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. |
| (iv) | During the two most recent fiscal years and through August 30, 2017 (the date of A&C’s dismissal), (a) there were no disagreements between the Company and A&C on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of A&C, would have caused it to make reference thereto in its report and (b) there were no “reportable events” as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. |
| (v) | On August 30, 2017, the Company provided A&C with a copy of this Current Report and has requested that it furnish the Company with a letter addressing to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the above statements. A copy of such letter is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. |

During the two most recent fiscal years ended June 30, 2016 and 2017, and any subsequent period through the date hereof prior to the engagement of WWC, neither the Company, nor someone on its behalf, has consulted WWC regarding:
| (i) | Either the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and either a written report was provided to the Company or oral advice was provided that the new accountant concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue; or |
| (ii) | Any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement as defined in paragraph 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K or a reportable event as described in paragraph 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K. |
