Judging from the current public opinion feedback from the outside , There are still many voices supporting Wu xiongang . There are some opinions that ,Arm The reason why Wu xiongang was dismissed , It's because Wu xiongang supports the cooperation with Huawei . last year , Wu xiongang once represented Arm Publicly promise to cooperate with Huawei .

According to the previous analysis of xinzhixun , The reason why Wu xiongang was dismissed may be ：“ at present Arm China's development has broken away from Arm The company was originally established Arm China , Is its original intention as a sales channel in China , also Arm China's self-developed products have been compared with Arm Business development in China , Competition began . therefore ,Arm The company needs to further strengthen its understanding of Arm Control of China .” however , Nor can it be ruled out , Indeed, it is Arm What the company and Hopu investment said , Wu xiongang's behavior is harmful Arm The interests of China and its shareholders .

Before Arm The company's joint statement on Hopu investment said ,Arm The decision of the board of directors to dismiss Wu xiongang , yes “ Based on reports and complaints ”, After investigation, it was found that ,“ Wu xiongang's behavior endangers the development of anmou China 、 Interests of shareholders and stakeholders ”.

however ,Arm Not disclosed , What behaviors of Wu xiongang have harmed the development of anmou China 、 Interests of shareholders and stakeholders .

Caixin cited some examples according to the information of many insiders before ,“ Think of it （ Wu xiong'ang ） Power is no longer bound by shareholders . For example, without fully informing shareholders , So Arm The brand cooperates externally , Including landing in Chengdu Arm Western R & D center 、 IC Design Center , Settled in Nanjing Arm Open source artificial intelligence system R & D and Application Center . Previously, the shareholders settled for anmou China , He has made commitments with the Shenzhen municipal government to establish a headquarters , Wu xiongang did not carry out .”

Today, , Bloomberg quoted informed sources as saying ,Arm The reason why the company is united Arm Chinese shareholder Hopu investment , recall Arm Chairman and chairman of China CEO Wu xiong'ang , It is because they found that Wu xiongang has established a family with Arm Company and Arm Investment companies with competing businesses in China ——Alphatecture （Hong Kong） Limited（ hereinafter referred to as “Alphatecture fund ”）, The fund mainly invests in the use of Arm IP Technology companies .

Bloomberg said , Sun Zhengyi, chairman of Softbank (Masayoshi Son)、Arm CEO Simon · Higgs (Simon Segars) The reasons for the dismissal of Wu xiongang were also outlined in the document sent to the director of Hopu, long Fenglei . File name , Wu xiongang decided to establish because of breach of contract Alphatecture The fund was dismissed .

although , For chips IP The company is , Invest in some downstream start-ups through the investment department , Provide technical and financial support , Cultivate customer ecosystem , It's very common , And it's also legal .Arm There are also some preferential policies for start-ups IP Empowerment policy .

however , The problem lies in , Wu xiongang founded Alphatecture The fund seems to be related to Arm Company and Arm China has nothing to do with , It is only privately established . and ,Arm The company itself has one that specializes in investment Arm IP Technology may help Arm Investment funds for Eco expanding start-ups . meanwhile Arm China itself also has holding companies specializing in investment , And there are also shares in some investment companies .

It also makes , Wu xiongang founded or participated in the investment company , And Arm Investment companies in China , as well as Arm There are certain conflicts of interest and competitive relations between the investment companies in which China participates . in addition , Wu xiongang also exists and uses it in Arm The position that China has , The possibility of seeking private interests for enterprises and individuals with private investment .

Alphatecture And Arm and Arm It doesn't matter to China

According to xinzhixun ,Acorn Spring Limited Namely Arm The main body of the foreign investment company directly controlled by the company .

【 remarks ：Acorn Computers The company is Arm The predecessor of the company .1990 year ,Acorn To work with apple , Set up a special Arm company （Acorn RISC Machine Abbreviation ）.】

And in the Acorn Spring Limited under ,Arm Facing China, we set up Coulson information technology consulting （ Shanghai ） Co., LTD. , And under it 99% Shenzhen Anchuang Technology Investment Management Co., Ltd , And a number of domestic investment funds in which it is mainly involved . Under Shenzhen Anchuang Technology Investment Management Co., Ltd , There are two more 99% Holding investment company , And participated in the investment of several investment funds .

It is worth mentioning that , Recently, I participated in BYD semiconductor A＋ Zhuhai Hengqin Anchuang Lingxin equity investment partnership （ Limited partnership ）, It is Shenzhen Anchuang Technology Investment Management Co., Ltd. that participated in the investment .

in addition ,Arm In fact, China also has a special investment company with shares —— Ningbo Meishan bonded port area Anchuang yuanzhan equity investment partnership （ Limited partnership ）, And this is also Arm The investment company in which the company participates .

The data shows , Ningbo Meishan bonded port area Anchuang yuanzhan equity investment partnership （ Limited partnership ） Previously, I participated in the research on Aojie Technology （ Shanghai ） Limited company investment , holding 0.89%.

And Wu xiongang, mentioned by Bloomberg, was founded Alphatecture fund , Because this is a company registered in Hong Kong, China , Therefore, it is difficult to find relevant industrial and commercial information . Public information can only be seen , This is a family founded in 2019 year 7 month 3 Japan's private limited liability company .

and Alphatecture The company where the fund invests abroad , At present, only Shenzhen Deyi Microelectronics Co., Ltd. can be found （ hereinafter referred to as “ Get a microelectronics ”） and TWS Chip manufacturer hengxuan Technology （2.68%）.

The data shows , Deyi microelectronics has core independent intellectual property rights in all key technology fields of memory control chips , Chip companies that can provide customers with customized design services for memory control chips and memory computing integrated chips . This year, 4 month , Deyi microelectronics announced its successful acquisition of Shenzhen Daxin Electronic Technology Co., Ltd （EpoStar）. meanwhile , It takes a microelectronics to complete hundreds of millions of Yuan B Round of funding , By internationally renowned chips IP The US dollar ecological fund of the company Alphatecture Lead investment , Deutsche union capital 、 Walden International and others follow up .

From the official press release , We can see , Its effect on Alphatecture The description of the fund is “ Internationally famous chip IP The US dollar ecological fund of the company ”. But actually ,Arm The only dollar fund that the company has been responsible for foreign investment is Acorn Spring, meanwhile Arm Only Anchuang yuanzhan equity investment partnership in Ningbo Meishan bonded port area is a specialized foreign investment company with Chinese shares （ Limited partnership ）. And in Arm There is also no list of Companies in which China directly or indirectly participates Alphatecture The name of the Fund .

obviously ,Alphatecture Funds and Arm Company and Arm China has nothing to do with . If Alphatecture The fund was really founded by Wu xiongang , Then its and Arm The investment business of the company 、 as well as Arm China's investment business has generated conflicts of interest . And its existence is utilized in Arm China's position is convenient , Suspicion of seeking private interests for his private company .

however , At present, from the public information , There is no direct evidence to prove Alphatecture The fund was founded by Wu xiongang . Of course , Do not rule out Arm The company and Hopu investors have relevant evidence .

at present , Wu xiongang and Arm China has not commented on Bloomberg's revelations .Arm The company and Hopu investment declined to comment again .

How to develop later ？

According to Bloomberg news ,Arm After investigating Wu xiongang, Hopu investment ,Arm The Chinese board of directors held a meeting , With a final 7 Yes ,1 Against , A resolution was passed to dismiss Wu xiongang .

however , The present situation is , Wu xiongang refused to resign , And use what it controls Arm China's official media accounts continue to speak out , against Arm Resolution of the Chinese board of directors . meanwhile , Wu xiongang also controlled Arm Registration documents and official seals of China , and Arm The board of directors wants to change the legal representative , Need to have the official seal of the company , But Wu xiongang refused to hand over .

therefore ,Arm The company and Hopu investment can only be resolved through court proceedings , But this process can take years . It's getting worse Arm The company is right Arm Intellectual property in China , Concerns about asset and financial security .

Bloomberg said ,Arm The company and Hopu investment plan rely on Arm Resolution of the Chinese board of directors , Lobby relevant government leaders in Beijing , This will test the Chinese government's protection of the legitimate rights and interests of overseas investors in China . If you can't get it back in time Arm Control of China ,Arm The company will consider termination of Arm China's support . People familiar with the matter say , This is a Arm The last resort of the company .
