It is worth noting that. Among them, LING HUI worked as general manager, general manager and senior vice president of the Internet of Things Division in China Resources Siwei Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., Guangzhou Anbao Electronics Co., Ltd. and Shenzhen Bettler Electronic Technology Co., Ltd., and joined Yingjixin as technical director in July 2020.
Among the other four people, Huang Hongwei, Chairman and General Manager of Yingjixin, Dai Jialiang, Director of System R&D Department, Zeng Lingyu, Deputy Director of IC R&D Department, and Tang Xiao, Deputy Director of IC R&D Department, all worked together in Xinhengfu Technology, a subsidiary of Juli Integration and Fuman Electronics.
In 2013, 10 people, including Huang Hongwei, left Torch Power Integration and planned to start a business in the field of power management chips, but they lacked financial support. Fuman Electronics plans to enter the power management chip market through its Xinhengfu technology. So the two sides jointly created Xin Yiman, and Huang Hongwei and others joined Xinhengfu Technology.
After the establishment of Xinyi Man, the cooperation was finally terminated in October 2014, and the company was cancelled in June 2016.
However, this cooperation has also brought about a long-term lawsuit between Fuman Electronics and CIMC. Fuman Electronics, its subsidiaries Xinhengfu Technology and Liu Wenjun initiated six lawsuits against Yingjinxin, and there were disputes over intellectual property rights and technology patents with Yingjinxin.
According to a source quoted by Jiwei.com, in the fourth quarter of 2018, Fuman Electronics was optimistic about the advantages of Yingjixin in the charging treasure and wireless charging market, and planned to acquire Yingjixin. However, after the negotiations failed, Fuman Electronics began to dig people. The earliest lawsuit of Fuman Electronics against Yingjixin also began in November 2018.
At present, among the six lawsuits filed by Yingjixin, Fuman Electronics and Liu Wenjun, five lawsuits have reached a settlement, and the plaintiff has withdrawn the lawsuit and closed the case. The administrative lawsuit of Fuman was decided by Beijing Intellectual Property Court in January, 2022, which rejected the plaintiff’s claim of Fuman Electronic Litigation, and Fuman Electronic refused to accept it and filed an appeal. The case is still being accepted by the Supreme People’s Court.

The power management chip is a chip that is responsible for the transformation, distribution, detection and other control functions of the required electric energy in the electronic equipment system. It is the power supply center and link of all electronic products and equipment, and is an indispensable chip product in the fields of consumer electronics, automotive electronics and new energy.
At present, international leaders such as Texas Instruments and Infineon still dominate the power management chip market. At the same time of domestic chip substitution, domestic power management chip enterprises should carry out technological innovation to win domestic and even foreign market share. As a new domestic power management chip enterprise, Yingjixin’s products adopt mixed digital and analog chips which are different from the traditional ones, and its listing may help to increase the market share of domestic power management chips.
At present, with the rapid expansion of the power management chip market, many new chip companies have been founded or entered this field. If we can’t grasp the development trend and market dynamics of the industry, there are certain operational risks.
