China News Service, Beijing, August 20 (Zuo Yuqing) On August 20, "grabbing official seals" suddenly became a hot search topic on Weibo.
On August 19, Chengdu Haiwei Huaxin Technology Co., Ltd. (referred to as "Haiwei Huaxin") announced on its WeChat public account that at about 16:00 on August 18, 2026, Sichuan Haite High-Tech Co., Ltd. (referred to as "Haite High-tech") organized more than a hundred people to break into its company and stole 4 seals including the company's party committee seal, company seal, contract seal, and "Ma Xiaoli" handwritten signature. After calling the police, police officers arrived at the scene. As of the date of the announcement, the seal had not been recovered.
Haiwei Huaxin stated that starting from 16:00 on August 18, 2026, any unit or individual may no longer use the above seal to conduct business with the company or sign any documents, contracts, agreements and other legal documents. Starting from 16:00 pm on August 18, 2026, our company will not recognize all documents, contracts, agreements and all matters handled using the above-mentioned lost seal, and will not bear any legal responsibility. All legal consequences and economic losses arising therefrom shall be borne by the unauthorized user.
In the announcement, Haiwei Huaxin also posted camera footage of the scene where the Chengdu Public Security Bureau’s Shuangliu District Branch’s notification of filing a case and the seal were robbed. Haiwei Huaxin stated that it will make a separate announcement after the seal is recovered or a new seal is activated.
In this regard, the reporter called Haiwei Huaxin. The company's staff said that the situation in the announcement was true and the company's business is currently operating normally. No one answered the public phone number of Haite High-tech. The reporter subsequently sent an email to Haite High-tech for inquiries. As of the time of publication, no response was received.
According to Blue Whale News, the Office of the Secretary of the Board of Directors of Haite High-tech stated that the action on August 18 was carried out by consensus among the other five shareholders except for the major shareholder Qingdao Haiyue, and was not a "robbing".
The reporter noticed the grievances behind the two companies' "grabbing for official seals."
Haiwei Huaxin was established in 2010 as a joint venture between Haite High-tech and the 29th Research Institute of China Electronics Technology Group Corporation. It is the first domestic wafer high-end manufacturing (Foundry) service company to provide 6-inch second-generation gallium arsenide and third-generation gallium nitride semiconductor integrated circuits. In 2015, Hitech officially became the controlling shareholder of Hiway Huaxin.
The turning point occurs in 2021.
Haiwei Huaxin introduced Shenzhen Zhengwei Financial Holdings Co., Ltd. (later renamed Qingdao Haiyue Holdings) through capital increase and share expansion. Zhengwei Financial Holdings became the largest shareholder, holding 34.01% of the shares; Haite High-tech's shareholding ratio dropped from 51.21% to 33.79%, relegating it to the second largest shareholder. Since then, the equity has further changed. As of August 2026, Qingdao Haiyue Holdings currently holds approximately 31.62% of the shares, and Haite High-tech holds approximately 31.41% of the shares.
According to the capital increase agreement between the two parties, Haite High-tech has the right to nominate three directors, and the chairman should be selected from the directors nominated by Haite High-tech. However, soon after the capital increase was completed, conflicts continued to break out between the two parties over the issue of company control.
On April 22 this year, Haite High-tech issued the "Announcement on the Company's Litigation", stating that the company's shareholder rights as a shareholder of Huaxin Technology could not be exercised normally, which seriously damaged the company's interests as a shareholder of Chengdu Haiwei Huaxin Technology Co., Ltd. In response, Haite High-tech filed a lawsuit against Qingdao Haiyue Holdings Co., Ltd., Qingdao Haiyue Industrial Investment Co., Ltd., Ma Xiaoli (the legal representative of Qingdao Haiyue Industrial Investment Co., Ltd., Qingdao Haiyue Holdings Co., Ltd. appointed Haiwei Huaxin as a director) and others for damages to shareholders' interests and infringement of shareholders' right to know.
According to Haite High-tech's disclosure, the Chengdu Intermediate People's Court of Sichuan Province made the second instance final judgment and revoked the relevant clauses in the aforementioned shareholders' meeting resolution that infringed on the rights of Haite High-tech shareholders. After arbitration by the China International Economic and Trade Arbitration Commission (CIETAC), it was confirmed that Qingdao Haiyue Holdings Co., Ltd., Qingdao Haiyue Industrial Investment Co., Ltd., Ma Xiaoli and others, Haiwei Huaxin and others should continue to perform the rights stipulated in the "Capital Increase Agreement" regarding Haite High-tech as a shareholder of Haiwei Huaxin.
Haite High-tech mentioned in the announcement that after the courts and CIETAC made judgments and awards, Haite High-tech repeatedly raised relevant claims through various methods, requiring Qingdao Haiyue Holdings Co., Ltd., Qingdao Haiyue Industrial Investment Co., Ltd., Ma Xiaoli and others to implement the judgments and arbitration awards. Qingdao Haiyue Holdings Co., Ltd., Qingdao Haiyue Industrial Investment Co., Ltd., Ma Xiaoli and others refused to implement the judgments and awards. Haite High-tech's rights as a shareholder of Haiwei Huaxin are still damaged to this day.
In response to this, Haiwei Huaxin issued a response on April 24, stating that the company has always adhered to the principle of handling relevant shareholder disputes and litigation matters involving Haiwei Huaxin in accordance with the law and regulations, and relevant disputes are subject to the final ruling of the judicial authority.
