China is proposing an overhaul of its foreign-investment rules, which some news sources are saying is "the biggest revamp of China’s rules governing foreign investment since Deng Xiaoping introduced elements of capitalism into the economy in the late 1970s." The draft looks to unify regulations overseeing foreign investment in China, scale back restrictions and begin regulating the variable interest entities (VIE) that are commonly used to circumvent foreign-ownership limits. The ministry said the rules should “promote foreign investment and normalize foreign investment management.” This represents a major step toward the formal regulation of the use of VIE structures in foreign investments in China, as well as simplifying rules for foreign companies looking to invest in China. Thoughts and implications of the changes below

The large discount between SAS and its subsidiaries could be due to 1) lack of bulge-bracket coverage, 2) higher polysilicon price 3) and 3) weak 1H demand from the solar and the semiconductor from COVID-19 plague which caused investors to care less about the value dislocation between SAS and its subsidiaries.
With a somewhat certain 28-30% gain in the earning as early Q1 2022, investors should start slowly building positions in SAS as the risk-off beast may disturb the confidence in the equity market much longer than what investors would like. The second scenario of increasing stake in Parade Tech should be treated as a call option as when it happens, it is a bonus of another 24%. Thus the total upside could be around 54%.
