China Crescent Enterprises, Inc., a technology leader in the rapidly developing Chinese market, recently announced that the company generated $17 million in revenue and a record net income of $1.1 million for the first six months of 2009. The company is on track to reach its forecasted $50 million in profitable revenue for 2009 due to the $45 million in recently announced outsourcing or pending contracts.
