As of the signing date of this prospectus, Chen Zhiyong, chairman of Senyu Culture, directly held 3870% of the shares, and through the employee stock ownership platform Ningbo Jiachang controls the company 2360% of the shares, a total of 62 control of the company30% of the shares are the controlling shareholders and actual controllers of the company. After the IPO, Chen Zhiyong's direct shareholding ratio will be reduced to 2903%。
However, Lei Bao found that Chen Zhiyong was not the founder of Senyu Culture, but after joining the company in 2015, he gradually became the current actual controller after gradually transferring all or part of the shares of the two founders.
It is also worth noting that on the eve of the IPO, its founder Cui Huiling sold more than 10% of the shares in the reporting period within 10 months and cleared out.
So what has happened between these shareholders so far? Lei Bao sorted out the equity change of Senyu Culture through the announcement of Senyu Culture at the time of its listing, as well as the details disclosed in the prospectus.
According to public information, Senyu Culture, formerly known as Senyu Co., Ltd., was jointly funded and established by Cui Huiling and Liu Jianchun in 2010. Senyu Co., Ltd. was established with a registered capital of 100,000 yuan, of which Cui Huiling subscribed 60,000 yuan and Liu Jianchun subscribed 40,000 yuan.
In January 2015, Chen Zhiyong joined Senyu Culture and served as executive director and general manager; On January 27, Chen Zhiyong became the second largest shareholder after acquiring 40% of Liu Jianchun's shares, and became one of the actual controllers through a concerted action agreement. And the other actual controller is Cui Huiling.
Since November 2016, Cui Huiling has never held any director, supervisor or senior position. Previously, from August 2010 to November 2016, Cui Huiling served as a supervisor of Senyu Culture.
In May 2017, Senyu Culture was listed on the National Small and Medium-sized Enterprise Share Transfer System. At this time, the company's total share capital is 6.7 million shares, and Cui Huiling still holds 300 sharesThe largest shareholder of 000000 shares and one of the actual controllers, with a shareholding ratio of up to 4478%。
In April 2019, Senyu Culture, which was listed on the stock exchange, announced that Cui Huiling would transfer 5% of its shares to Chen Zhiyong, and Cui Huiling's shareholding ratio would increase from 39 before this transfer36% becomes 3436%, Chen Zhiyong's shareholding ratio from 3541% becomes 4041%, becoming the largest shareholder. However, the basis for the transfer and pricing has not been disclosed.
In June 2020, Chu Chao, another natural person shareholder of Senyu Culture, transferred his 400 shares of the company to Zhang Chunying, an external shareholder, and held all the remaining 31640,000 shares of the company were held at 3The ** of 5 yuan shares was transferred to Chen Zhiyong.
In November and December 2020, Cui Huiling transferred the company's shares held by her twice, and the transfer ** was 14$67 shares. At this time, there was only less than half a year between Chen Zhiyong's transfer of Chu Chao's shares, but it was less than a quarter of Cui Huiling's external transfer of shares.
Chen Zhiyong's transfer of Chu Chao's shares is extremely low**, because Senyu Culture's prospectus and public information do not disclose the pricing basis of the equity transfer, it is difficult for us to analyze the fairness of the pricing.
In September 2021, Cui Huiling won another 2000 yuan shares, to external investment institutions to clear the remaining shares of Senyu Culture.
However, on September 28, 2021, Senyu Culture completed the registration of IPO counseling.
This means that on the eve of the official launch of the IPO of Senyu Culture, Cui Huiling, the founder and former actual controller, took 10 months to clear the company's shares, cashing out a total of about 1$1.4 billion. Say goodbye to the Senyu culture that he founded single-handedly.
It is worth noting that Senyu Culture once planned to "sell" itself to the A-share company Guangyi Technology (delisted) during the listing period, but ultimately failed. In addition, in May 2019, the company's participation in the "Nanyanzhai Record", which has been completed, was affected by the turmoil caused by the inappropriate remarks made by the male No. 2 Zhao Lixin, and it was unable to be launched for a long time.
According to the prospectus data, Senyu Culture's performance has been acceptable, and it is not yet known whether the above events will affect Cui Huiling's decision to sell her shares.
In addition, the company's investigation information shows that Senmao Pictures, the core subsidiary of Senyu Culture, and 13 companies (most of which are film and television companies) all use the same ***, which is suspected of being mixed up; According to the situation pointed out in the "Notice on Issues Concerning the Preferential Policies for New Enterprise Income Tax in Difficult Areas of Xinjiang and Kashgar Khorgos Economic Development Zone" issued by the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region Taxation Bureau of the State Administration of Taxation on June 26, 2023, Senmao Pictures is also suspected of not operating substantively, and enjoys the Xinjiang tax exemption policy in violation of regulations, and may be at risk of being pursued for taxes.
In short, whether it is Chen Zhiyong's transfer of a high proportion of equity without disclosing the transfer** and pricing basis, or Cui Huiling's large-scale liquidation and exit on the eve of the IPO, or the possible risks of the core subsidiaries of Senyu Culture, the real situation is doubtful. Can Senyu Culture achieve a smooth listing? Lei Bao will continue to pay attention to relevant information.
