SHANDONG HI-SPEED HOLDINGS GROUP LIMITED 山高控股集團有限公司

China Smarter Energy (1004) tries to explain why it only got HK$1.2m for assets which others valued around 100x higher
Company announcement, 14-Apr-2023
CSE valued its 1.71% stake of Seekers Partners Ltd at 31-Dec-2021 at HK$0.04 per share or $1.126m, but on the same date, Shandong Hi-Speed (0412) valued its 2.91% stake at $4.396 per share ($211m), after a 25% discount for lack of marketability, and Touyun Biotech (1332) valued its 0.55% stake at $27m ($2.96 per share). CSE says it couldn't attract buyers because all 3 investees refused to provide financial data - to which SHS and Touyun apparently had access. Similar gross disparities apply to the stake in FreeOpt Holdings Ltd. In the end, CSE sold all 3 to Mr Au Yeung Kai Chor in order to finalise their overdue audited accounts and resume trading.
600m shares (6.74%) of China Dili (1387) pledged to China Shandong Hi-Speed (0412)Release
Disclosure of interest, 7-May-2021
The mortgagor, New Amuse Ltd, is ultimately owned by Zhang Xingmei, wife of Dai Yongge. Together they control China Dili. The shares are security for a "certain facility agreement". Update: the pledge was released on 9-Jun-2021.

CSHF (0412) subscribes US$125m of notes issued by a lender
Company announcement, 2-Dec-2019
This is an indirect loan. The owner of the Issuer isn't disclosed. We can reveal that the Borrower is a subsidiary of Kaisa (1638), which recently issued 4-year notes at 11.95% p.a., but CSHF is only getting 7.5% from the Issuer - so how much is the Issuer taking as a spread, and why? Who owns it? What collateral, if any, is the Borrower offering? The issue arranger is a subsidiary of Bank of Communications (3328).
SFC takes CMBC Capital (1141) and 6 former directors to MMTThe bubbles in CNN
SFC, 18-Dec-2018
This alleges late disclosure of market gains in its securities portfolio in 2014, including shares of Icube (0139), Heritage (0412) and Rising Development (1004), all of which have since been renamed. All 4 companies were then in what we call the "Chung Nam Network". On 8-Jan-2015, we warned the market about bubbles in 2 of them.
Hao Tian Intl (1341) buys 4.05% of China SDHS (0412) from parent Hao Tian Dev (0474)
Company announcement, 17-Dec-2018
CSHS (0412) lends HK$200m to someoneDisclosure of interest
Company announcement, 22-Mar-2018
The 6-month loan is at 16% p.a.. Part of the security is shares in a listed company held by a BVI company that is 51% owned by the borrower, a businessman. A disclosure of interest reveals that on the same date, CSHS obtained a security interest of 70m shares (7.56%) of Great Harvest Maeta (3683). So the borrower is almost certainly Mr Yan Kim Po, who owns 51% of Ablaze Rich Investments Ltd (his wife owns the other 49%), which owns 69.3% of Great Harvest Maeta.
Joint Global Ltd joint venture agreement dated 15-Sep-2015
Company filing, 7-Jun-2017
Thanks to the SFC's Takeovers Code, this agreement has been published online by CMBC Capital Holdings Ltd (1141), one of the 11 entities in what we call the "Chung Nam Network" which pooled their shares in HEC Capital Ltd into Joint Global Ltd, which then imploded like a black hole. It relates to our story "The Joint Global implosion", 30-Sep-2016.
CIFG (0412) sells Gulfstream G450 to ED Yau Wai Lung
Company announcement, 31-Mar-2017
The agreement is on the last day of the company's financial year. CIFG is selling the company which owns the aircraft for HK$97.2m. CIFG bought that company for HK$157.988m in cash on 13-Jan-2016. The vendor then was not disclosed. Online records suggest the plane has serial number 4166, registered on 26-Oct-2009 in the Cayman Islands as VP-CET.
NetMind (0985) sells 8.66% of CIFG (0412) for HK$598.44m
Disclosure of interest, 8-Dec-2016
The off-market transaction, on 5-Dec-2016, was for cash at $0.36 per share, a 39% discount to the closing price of $0.59. The consideration was 24.31% ot NetMind's market capitalisation of $2461m at the average price over the preceding 5 days, so in our view, it was a Discloseable Transaction under the Listing Rules, which NetMind has failed to announce. Both companies are in what we call the "Chung Nam Network".
Enterprise Development (1808) coughs up investment details at 30-Jun-2016 and 31-Dec-2015The Joint Global implosion
Company announcement, 30-Nov-2016
This follows a complaint by Webb-site to HKEX on 4-Sep-2016. The announcement hints at what happened to Joint Global Ltd, featured in our article "The Joint Global implosion". During the first half of 2016, JG disposed of its entire 26.96% shareholding in HEC Capital Ltd for an undisclosed price and had incurred a cumulative loss of HK$1978m by 30-Jun-2016, reducing its net assets from HK$2130m to just $132m, including a 5-year promissory note of $131m.
Mason (0273) sells Willie Link Ltd for HK$400mCircular
Company announcement, 4-Nov-2016
This was done in 2 blocks. 45% was sold in Mar-2016 to Apex Corporate Investments Ltd for HK$200m, and 55% now to Best Mate Ltd, owned by Kenneth Chan Chak Kai, for HK$200m. Mason fails to say who owns Apex. We can tell you that it was once owned by CIFG (0412) which sold it to High Rhine Ltd (BVI) on 20-Nov-2014. According to Mason's 2015 accounts, it acquired High Rhine in Jun-2015. Update: a Mason rights issue circular on 13-Dec-2016 reveals the owner as Mr Chow Kam Wah.
CIFG (0412): breach of Listing Rules on Discloseable TransactionsThe Jont Global implosion
Company announcement, 26-Oct-2016
Following our article on 30-Sep-2016, CIFG admits that it swapped its 56.8m HECC shares for shares in JG and this was a Discloseable Transaction. It also claims that on 1-Apr-2016, the day after CIFG's year-end, it agreed to transfer its JG shares to New Peak Ltd (BVI), the owner of which is not disclosed, and in consideration received 48m shares in HECC, the transferor of which is not disclosed, thereby avoiding the JG implosion. This transaction was not completed until 30-Jun-2016. It was not disclosed as a post-balance sheet event in CIFG's accounts.
SFC warns market on CIFG (0412)
Following Webb-site's bubble warning on 26-Sep-2016, the SFC has conducted an ownership investigation. (13-Oct-2016)
Hiding behind the cornerstones
Webb-site reveals that investors who took 31% of a bank IPO had secretly laid off their risk by issuing derivatives to a mainland property developer from the same city, via two HK-listed companies which incidentally are bubble stocks. When we complained, HKEX did not require disclosure of the bank’s identity, thereby preserving the secrecy behind the cornerstone investors which facilitate HKEX’s IPO business. Once again, the regulatory conflict of interest is exposed. (3-Oct-2016)
The Joint Global implosion
A collapse in a hub of the "Chung Nam Network" has wiped about HK$2bn off the balance sheets of at least 11 listed companies, many of which never announced that they had invested in it. We piece together an ugly jigsaw and call on the SFC to investigate and HKEX to wake up and require announcements. (30-Sep-2016)
China Innovative Finance (0412) bubble
Hao Tian Development (0474) has confirmed our view by dumping 9.06% of CIFG at a 61.9% discount, still well above the net tangible asset value of $0.099. CIFG should trade below NTAV due to its appalling governance and membership of what we call the "Chung Nam Network". The purported profits of its leasing division are largely illusory and depend heavily on 1 customer in which CIFG has invested. HTD has also been allowed by HKEX to skirt the Listing Rules on corporate transactions. (26-Sep-2016)
China Inno Fin (0412) belatedly details investments at 31-Mar-2016
Company announcement, 13-Jul-2016
This follows a complaint by Webb-site to SEHK. The firm held 9.95% of China Smarter Energy (1004), 4.49% of Huarong (0993) and 1.34% of Carnival (0996), as well as having sunk HK$340.8m into Joint Global Ltd, the newest unlisted hub in what we call the "Chung Nam Network". It provides no details of this significant investment, which in our view should have been announced when made. This was in fact a share swap of 56.8m shares of HEC Capital Ltd for the same number of shares of JG valued at $6 each.
China Opto (1332) discloses the junk held by Win Wind Capital Ltd
Company announcement, 28-Jun-2016
This follows a complaint filed by Webb-site on 23-Jun-2016 that the Major Transaction circular, which was presumably vetted by the Stock Exchange, failed to include any information on the underlying investments held by Enerchina (0622) subsidiary Win Wind Capital Ltd, with which China Opto is engaged in a share swap. Several of the stocks are in what we call the "Chung Nam Network". This also reveals that Win Wind (via Global Mind Investment Ltd) subscribed HK$100m for its 310 shares (5.44%) of an unnamed company which can only be Co-Lead Holdings Ltd. We calculate that this occurred between 7 and 29 July 2015, based on dilution of other holders.
GT (0263) belatedly discloses what it held at 30-Jun-2015

Hao Tian (0474) to issue US$30m 9% notes secured on 550m shares (3.24%) of Heritage (0412)Disclosure of interest
Company announcement, 7-Jul-2015
The subscriber is Sea Venture Investments Ltd (BVI), the owner of which is not disclosed. The subscriber also gets an option to purchase 80,729,170 Heritage shares at HK$1.44 (equal to US$15m at an exchange rate of USD=HKD7.75) and warrants to subscribe shares of Hao Tian Finance Co Ltd, a partial subsidiary, for up to US$15m at NAV. Update from disclosure of interest: the subscriber is ultimately owned by China Construction Bank (0939).
Pass the parcel: Willie (0273) buys basement of China United Centre from HEC Capital for HK$170m
Company announcement, 20-Apr-2015
Avoiding 8.5% double stamp duty, Willie is buying the BVI company which indirectly owns the property. It was previously owned by Dragonite (0329) until 21-Jan-2014, by Heritage (0412) until 4-May-2011 and by Z & Z International Ltd until 25-Apr-2008. Even earlier, it was owned by China United Holdings Ltd, the former incarnation of Willie, which bought the property in 1997 for HK$470m. So it has now come full circle. All are in the "Chung Nam Network"
Putting the FRC in Farcical
In a shocking failure to recognise a basic and obvious accounting and auditing error, HK's Financial Reporting Council rejected our complaint. The listed company involved has now admitted the error. We call on the FRC's Process Review Panel to investigate how it deals with complaints. (16-Apr-2015)
The bubbles in CNN
We warn investors of 3 bubbles amounting to HK$20.0bn (US$2.58bn) in the "Chung Nam Network" of listed companies, Heritage (0412), Rising Dev (1004) and Mascotte (0136) and look at a blatantly bad decision by the board of Hao Tian (0474), and an undisclosed Very Substantial Acquisition by that company. One of the bubbles is even a Russian doll "double bubble" - one owns the other. (8-Jan-2015)
Heritage (0412) sells loss-making TCM clinic
Company announcement, 5-Nov-2014
The purchaser is High Rhine Ltd, the owner of which is not disclosed. On 12-Dec-2013, High Rhine Ltd was sold by Tack Fiori (0928) to Equal Sky Ltd (BVI), which at least until 21-Apr-2010 was owned by Willie (0273). So this may have been a sale to Willie.

The grantee of the options is not named, but the number of options just happens to be exactly 1/3 (rounded down) of the number of subscription shares. Could it be that the subscriber is also the grantee?

She is the ex-spouse of Lai Sun heir Peter Lam Kin Ngok. This follows a similar sale by Quinella of HK$300m of the notes to Forefront (0885) announced 2 weeks ago.
