high-end Baijiu profit weak
Prior to this Anhui Golden Seed Winery Co.Ltd(600199) , Huarun's first investment in Baijiu was completed in 2018.
In February of that year, China Resources's Huachuang Xinrui (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd. transferred 99.15 million non tradable shares of Shanxi Xinghuacun Fen Wine Factory Co.Ltd(600809) (600809.

SH).
In the current high-end Baijiu leading industry competition, the weak high-end Baijiu layout is the main reason for Anhui Golden Seed Winery Co.Ltd(600199) growth stall and competition. How to improve the profitability of medium and high-end liquor is also the first big problem for China Resources and new Anhui Golden Seed Winery Co.Ltd(600199) in the future.
