According to relevant reports, takasugi’s colleagues said that the police had been involved in the investigation, and the private placement had reduced its positions to deal with customer redemption as early as mid January. According to surging news, the police have confirmed that takasugi died.
It is understood that Gaoshan is the actual controller and investment director of Shanghai Huanyi Private Equity Fund Management Co., Ltd., and the relevant information has not been publicized in the fund industry association. Sky eye survey shows that Gaoshan is the largest shareholder of Shanghai Huanyi, with a shareholding ratio of 55%. People familiar with the matter said that most of Shanghai Huanyi’s customers came from direct sales, and the management scale was close to 4 billion yuan, but after Gaoshan disappeared, its products suffered a large number of redemptions.

announcement of listed company: Gaoshan lost contact
In addition to working in private placement, Gaoshan is also an independent director of Shanghai Huaming Intelligent Terminal Equipment Co.Ltd(300462) and Changyu Xincai. Among them, the latest announcement of the listed company Shanghai Huaming Intelligent Terminal Equipment Co.Ltd(300462) (300462) confirmed the news of the loss of contact of Gaoshan.
Shanghai Huaming Intelligent Terminal Equipment Co.Ltd(300462) said that the company was unable to contact Gaoshan recently and was in a state of loss of contact. The specific situation of Gaoshan’s loss of contact still needs to wait for the investigation results of the public security organ. Up to now, the company has not been able to understand the specific reasons for the loss of Gaoshan.
was still investigating at the end of last year
The news of Gao Shan’s disappearance is regrettable and has also triggered a lot of speculation in the industry.
According to the data of private placement network, the 48 products operated by Shanghai Huanyi were established last year, of which 19 had positive cumulative income. The representative product was established in March last year, with a loss of nearly 10% this year, but the cumulative income is still close to 50%. Only in terms of performance, it did not perform very poorly.
However, another person familiar with the matter told the Chinese reporter of the securities firm that the online release of private placement is not all of its product performance, and the actual loss of some unpublished products under the name of Gaoshan is not small. “Because the products entrusted by securities companies have too much losses.”
Chinese reporters from securities companies found that Takayama participated in many roadshows last year and was usually happy to speak in the media.
Last December 31st, Gao Shan first visited the first financial company, the company and industry, and reviewed the investment in 2021 and looked forward to the direction of investment in 2022. The related content was released on the official account of Wanshan, a public private number.
When it comes to new year’s investment, takasugi puts forward two basic views: first, there is no industry beta, only industry alpha. In 2022, we should play down beta, look for alpha, and look for those sub fields that are easiest to improve penetration and have growth in the track. On the second level, 2022 is a year of abandoning the high to the low. Industries lost in 2021, such as the Internet, consumption and medical treatment, may usher in a turnaround in 2022. This opportunity depends on the changes of macro policies, as well as the judgment and implementation direction of senior management on the economy in the new year.
According to statistics, Gaoshan investigated listed companies more than 10 times last year. The latest survey took place on December 29 last year, and the research object was Shanghai Holystar Information Technology Co.Ltd(688330) (688330).
