M&A Restructuring Secrets Unveiled in Exclusive Meeting
Mergers and acquisitions (M&A) and restructuring in the capital market are ushering in the "best of times."
This year, policy-level warm winds have been blowing frequently regarding the M&A and restructuring of A-share listed companies. From the "New National Nine Articles" in April, the "Science and Innovation Board Eight Articles" in June, to the recent "M&A Six Articles," all are sending positive signals, encouraging listed companies to upgrade and transform towards new quality productive forces through M&A and restructuring, emphasizing value orientation and industrial integration to enhance the quality of listed companies and market vitality. The Shanghai Stock Exchange supports market-oriented reforms and promotes high-quality industrial M&A by increasing regulatory tolerance, optimizing review efficiency, and communication mechanisms.
After the policies were released, the activity of listed companies' M&A and restructuring has significantly increased, with the emergence of several landmark cases and a warm market response.
In this context, how will market participants such as securities investment banks, listed companies, and investment institutions seize the policy dividend period and actively promote M&A and restructuring cases? How to select projects with good market effects and in line with the policy support direction? At the same time, how to control risks at all stages to create value for investors with high-quality projects?

At the beginning of the new policy, a closed-door meeting is timely. On October 17th, the "Red Tile Finance ยท Thematic Forum - SUFE Equity Investment Alliance Industry Exchange Meeting," co-sponsored by Shanghai University of Finance and Economics (SUFE) Entrepreneurship and Investment Alumni Association, Jia Dong Investment, and co-organized by Thinking Finance & Investors Network, Golden Sparrow Art Center, will be held in Shanghai. The meeting theme is "Investment and M&A under New Circumstances," focusing on the hot topics discussed by all parties in the market, for in-depth discussion and exchange, aiming to guide the industry's standardized operations, support innovative policy arrangements, and contribute to the continuous and healthy development of industrial M&A.
The organizers complement each other's strengths and delve into the capital market.
The reason why this meeting has received strong support from various institutions such as listed companies and securities manufacturers is related to the deep background of the main organizers.
The SUFE Venture Capital Alumni Association is an industry alumni branch under the "SUFE Alumni Association," established in January 2018. It focuses on entrepreneurship and innovation, equity investment, and professional services, with the purpose of "serving the development of alumni, serving the development of the alma mater, and serving the development of society." It relies on strong alumni resources in the financial circle, business community, service industry, as well as academia and politics, integrates the multidisciplinary advantages of SUFE's "economic management, humanities, science, and law," and creates a wide, continuous, and effective communication and interaction platform among industry alumni. Among them, the Schoolmate Sentiment Alumni (Enterprise) Alliance is a cooperative development entity jointly initiated by a group of SUFE alumni and alumni enterprises committed to creating value in the alumni circle. It is an open co-creation ecosystem where alumni share resources, share responsibilities, coexist collaboratively, and prosper together. Most alliance members come from domestic and foreign financial institutions and listed company executives, as well as a large number of entrepreneur groups.
One of the organizers, Shanghai Jia Dong Investment Consulting Co., Ltd., focuses on investor relations management, long-term services, M&A consulting, and innovative services as its core business. It is committed to serving the long-term growth of IPO companies and listed companies and is one of the most dynamic and excellent investor relations management companies in China.

Coincidentally, both speakers at this conference are women who possess both strength and charm. They are Ms. Ren Zhenwei, the head of the M&A committee, and Ms. Huang Yiru, the chairman of Houyang Investment.
Ms. Ren Zhenwei has worked at investment banks such as UBS, Houlihan Lokey, and Rothschild. She holds an EMBA from Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business, an MBA from the University of Michigan, and a bachelor's degree from Shanghai University of Finance and Economics. She is a non-practicing member of the Chinese Certified Public Accountant (CPA).
With 20 years of investment banking experience, she has focused on areas such as overseas and domestic listings of Chinese companies, mergers and acquisitions, financing, and the privatization of Chinese concept stocks. Transactions she has led include the global spirits giant Diageo's (Diageo) tender offer for Shuijingfang, Alibaba's acquisition of the American e-commerce company Auctiva, BlueFocus's acquisition of Canada's largest independent media advertising company Vision 7, ReneSola's (ReneSola) U.S. stock listing and follow-on offering, and Daquan Energy's U.S. stock listing, among other projects. The BlueFocus acquisition of Vision 7, led by her, won the Best M&A Deal Award in China.
At this conference, she will give a sharing speech on "Creating Value through M&A." As a participant in capital operations, she will share her valuable experience and views on the current M&A market environment and trends, how M&A creates value, and the risks and considerations of M&A.
The true value of M&A is not just about numerical addition and subtraction but also the best presentation of business wisdom.
The other keynote speaker, Ms. Huang Yiru, also has a dazzling capital market resume. As the founder and chairman of Houyang Investment, she has extensive experience in capital market operations and resource integration capabilities. She holds a Master's degree in Economics from Shanghai University of Finance and Economics and a Global EMBA degree from Shanghai Jiao Tong University. She has served as a special training instructor for the Shanghai Stock Exchange and Shenzhen Stock Exchange.
In 2008, Ms. Huang Yiru founded a highly influential financial information and market value management institution, serving more than 500 listed companies in their issuance and listing as well as investor relations management, accumulating a deep foundation in the capital market. In 2015, she founded Houyang Investment, managing assets worth over ten billion, and has successfully invested in projects such as Century Huatong, Fuling Precision, Autohome, Tianfeng Securities, Ruyi Xinxin, Rui Ang Bio, and Silicon Valley Analog.
Looking back, she believes that successful M&A requires professionalism and persistence. In the face of the changing social landscape, those who are optimistic on the surface but pessimistic in reality are the ones who can survive. It is this "pessimism" and the risk awareness and control measures under it that have helped the company through economic slowdowns and periods of low capital market activity, allowing it to survive the long winter and welcome the arrival of spring with a smile.
Ms. Huang Yiru and the Houyang Investment she leads have, for many years, relied on strong professionalism and forward-looking awareness, making significant investment layouts in new energy, semiconductors, advanced manufacturing, and other fields. In recent years, they have increased investment and empowerment in innovative enterprises, demonstrating their leadership and influence in the industry.In this session, Ms. Huang Yiru will present on the theme of "The Art Behind Mergers and Acquisitions." She will share her unique investment insights with the attendees, covering several aspects such as capital resources, technology and market-driven factors, talent, and the perfect integration of culture and strategy.
