In this regard, Bu Rixin believes that "chain owners" enterprises, as market-oriented institutions, set up CVC funds and will carry out horizontal and vertical mergers and acquisitions around the upstream and downstream of key industrial chains. "This kind of M&A will help chain-owner enterprises to expand their market scale and enhance their market competitiveness, which is the most in line with the logic of M&A and the basic logic of the Action Plan to encourage chain-owner enterprises to set up CVC funds."Biomedicine, as one of the leading industries in Shanghai, has a scale of nearly one trillion yuan. In 2023, the industrial scale reached 933.732 billion yuan, an increase of 4.9%; Shanghai's biomedical industry chain is relatively complete, with many medical device enterprises and CRO, CMO and CSO enterprises. Therefore, Yuan Shuai believes that the Shanghai Municipal Government will set up a 10 billion yuan M&A fund for biomedical industry, which is expected to cultivate internationally competitive biomedical enterprises through mergers and acquisitions."The government's participation in M&A fund investment does not mean that the government will dominate the M&A business, but encourage market-oriented institutions and chain owners to lead the M&A business through the above-mentioned M&A fund or parent fund support." Bu Rixin believes.

"Because the industry is a typical' big money' industry, that is, high risk, long cycle and burning money, the nature of biomedicine also determines that it needs mergers and acquisitions in the current environment to become bigger and stronger."Since then, after continuing to Shenzhen and Anhui, Shanghai has also made efforts in mergers and acquisitions.

Bu Rixin said that only through mergers and acquisitions and accelerating industrial integration can the benign development of the industry be promoted, which is also one of the most effective measures.Since the second half of 2024, there have been frequent large-scale acquisitions in the A-share market, and the biomedical industry has accelerated its integration. For example, China Bio-Pharmaceutical intends to acquire about 55% equity of Haooubo by means of "agreement+offer", Qianhong Pharmaceutical plans to invest 390 million yuan for bankruptcy and reorganization of Fiona Fang Pharmaceutical, Pharmacists help to acquire a piece of medicine, Xinnuowei plans to acquire 100 grams of Shiyao, and Sichuan Shuangma announced the cross-border acquisition of Jianyuan Medicine ...It is worth mentioning that the Action Plan also mentioned that if the "chain owner" enterprises carry out mergers and acquisitions around the key links of the industrial chain through enterprise venture capital (CVC), the establishment of CVC funds will be included in the fast track. At the same time, government investment funds can participate in M&A fund investment through common shares, preferred shares and convertible bonds, and make appropriate profits.
