Xinfei this life

Xinfei Electric has been praised as one of the 'four golden flowers' in China's refrigerator industry (Xinfei, Haier, Rongsheng and Meiling). In the 1990s, Xinfei Refrigerator was brilliant, product market sales and brand reputation were only second. In Haier, the market share has long occupied the top three. 'Xinfei advertising is doing well, not as good as the new flying refrigerator.' A sing in the north and south. In fact, the new flight from development to desolate, the whole process is also the epitome of the development of the home appliance industry.

Next, the fund tried to restore the life of the new flight in the form of time series.

Xinfei was formerly a small local military enterprise founded in 1958 - Xinxiang Radio Equipment Factory.

In 1983, Liu Bingyin took over as the director of the factory. In order to survive in the predicament, he finally chose the white household appliances project as the road to transformation.

In 1984, the first phase of the Xinxiang Refrigerator Factory broke ground and the new flight was officially born.

From 1986 to 1996, Xinfei entered a period of rapid development. Xinfei brand refrigerators gradually became China's recognized brand-name products. In the mid-1990s, Xinfei built the first production line of 600,000 double green fluorine-free refrigerators in the country. The home appliance industry took the lead in launching the 'green concept', which promoted the industrialization process of China's refrigerator industry without CFC replacement technology and became China's largest green refrigerator production base.

The picture below shows that in 1990, Liu Bing carried out the quality rectification of all the staff and roared the unqualified refrigerator.

In 1996, Xinfei Electric became one of the "three strongest" in the same industry in the country, achieving a historic turning point, and juxtaposed with the Haier, Rongsheng and Meiling in the "four golden flowers" of the Chinese refrigerator industry.

In 2002, the total production and sales of Xinfei Refrigerator jumped to the top two in the Chinese refrigerator industry. After deducting export factors, only the domestic market share was as high as 18.88%.

It is worth mentioning that in 1994, China was in the midst of a wave of investment promotion. Under the leadership of local governments, Singaporean company Hong Leong Asia entered the new flight, Xinfei completed the shareholding system transformation, and Xinfei Group was established. Xinxiang City, 2005. After the government transferred 39% of the state-owned shares held by Xinfei Electric to Hong Leong, the latter held 90% of the shares and became a decision maker. However, strong international capital combined with excellent domestic brands did not allow new flights. Achieving a leap, but the performance quickly turned down.

Perhaps because Hong Leong Group is a real estate and hospitality tycoon, there is no experience in home appliance management, and there is little understanding of the Chinese home appliance market, which has caused Xinfei to miss the opportunity of diversified development several times. Especially after the holding of the new flight, management The conflict with the major shareholders has intensified, and the new high-rise electrical appliances have been frequently replaced. The local team has left a lot, and the new flight has begun to decline.

According to statistics, the market share of Xinfei Refrigerator ranked third in the country at the end of 2005. After 2008, Xinfei Electric Appliances withdrew from the first camp of the home appliance industry. After 2010, it slipped to the sixth place with a market share of only 6.27. %, listed in Haier, Rongsheng, Meiling, Midea, after Siemens.

Especially after 2011, after the government subsidies were abolished, the company's revenue began to grow negatively, and its performance turned from profit to loss. Internal documents show that in 2011, Xinfei Electric lost about 200 million yuan, and continued to lose 180 million yuan in the first half of 2012. .

Since the salary has not risen in the past 10 years, at the end of 2012, Xinfei Refrigerator broke out of the whole factory strike, and the contradiction between workers and management quickly intensified.

Unexpectedly, due to the break of the capital chain, it is unable to pay off the debts due, and the assets are not enough to pay off all the debts. On October 30, 2017, Xinfei applied to the Xinxiang Intermediate People's Court for reorganization. November 9, 2017 On the day, Xinxiang Intermediate People’s Court ruled that Xinfei Electric Appliances, Xinfei Household Appliances and Xinfei Refrigeration Appliances were applied for reorganization.

On January 4, 2018, Xinxiang Intermediate People's Court ruled that Xinfei Company was merged and reorganized. However, the merger and reorganization decision was issued less than 40 days. On February 8, Xinfei Company announced the news of the return of work.

But two months later, Hong Leong Asia announced a notice to announce the withdrawal of funds from Xinfei. For reasons of divestment, Hong Leong Asia said in its announcement on April 13 that Xinfei has been losing money since 2011, given the Chinese refrigerators and freezers. The overall overcapacity and competition in the household appliance industry have intensified. In recent years, its performance has also deteriorated repeatedly, causing the financial performance of Xinfei Company to be adversely affected.

On May 18, 2018, Xinfei Company held a second meeting of creditors in the merger and reorganization case. The meeting passed the reorganization plan of Xinfei Home Appliances, Xinfei Electric Appliances, and Xinfei Refrigeration Appliances.

According to the reorganization plan, the original shareholders' equity of Xinfei Company will be fully adjusted and will be transferred to the appropriate restructuring investors in the form of auction. Xinfei Company will maintain the legal entity qualification, and the appropriate investors will hold Xinfei Company. 100% equity; the equity auction consideration will be used to settle the 8 pending items such as the debt of Xinfei Company.

According to public information, there are 840 creditors of Xinfei, and the amount of credits is as high as 2.295 billion yuan. However, it is understood that the subject matter of this auction does not contain the debt of Xinfei, and the issue of related debts is handled by Xinfei Bankruptcy Reorganization Manager. .
