Research period review: 33r^d edition (2022/2023)

In 2022, Chance Bridge Law Firm completed Gansu-based Jinhui Mining’s listing in Shanghai. This company was the first enterprise in Gansu province listed on the main board of Shanghai Stock Exchange in the past five years. The team also advised data acquisition equipment manufacturer and distributer SEUIC Technologies’ IPO on STAR market, which involved the changes of rights of state-owned properties as one of the shareholders was a well-known public university.

Also, the team assisted China National Railway Group Corporation’s subsidiary Haoji Railway on a Rmb9 billion corporate bonds non-public offering. The funds raised will repay bank loans for the construction of Haoji Railway. Haoji Railway is the first north-south railway in China that is dedicated to coal.

Last year, the team assisted a real estate company in exiting a logistics company’s bankruptcy project as an investor. Due to significant policy changes, the restructuring of the logistics company was difficult to implement. Facing pressure from the creditors of the logistics company, the bankruptcy administrator and the lending banks, and potential legal risks, the real estate company decided to quit the project.

The firm also provided legal services for a few top-notch securities companies, trusts and banks.
