The whole industry chain integration problem

In fact, this generous collection is not the first time for DHL.

According to this newspaper, DHL Runda officially entered the LED industry in 2009, first introduced the strategic investor Guangdong Jianlongda at the beginning of the year, and then invested 100 million yuan to control Taishan Jianlong and was transferred to Guangdong Jianlongda and Enping Jianlong.

Later, in order to open up the downstream application market, DHL Runda acquired Shenzhen Ruituo Display Technology Co., Ltd. in August of that year.

DHL Runda once said that the industry reshuffle brought by the decline of single-link profits will highlight the competitive advantage of DHL Runda's entire industrial chain, which is beneficial to the company's long-term development and at the same time, it also adds many integration opportunities.

More importantly, NVC Lighting, which is affected by shareholder disputes, is not doing well this year. Since the contradictions of the company's shareholders began to surface in May of this year, NVC Lighting, which has experienced factory shutdowns and dealer forced palaces, has inevitably been affected.

In addition, the NVC executive team has also undergone major changes. At the end of November, Zhang Kaipeng from Schneider had resigned as the company's chief executive officer and a member of the interim operating committee. In addition, Xu Fengyun, vice president of NVC who firmly supported Wu Changjiang in the Infighting incident, has also resigned.

"Dehao will ensure the independence of NVC's operations. After joining NVC's board of directors, it will strive to improve its board governance and standardize company operations to meet the legal requirements of public companies in Shenzhen and Hong Kong and maximize the interests of shareholders." DHL Runda Chairman Wang Donglei said.
