The state-owned capital investment companies will not interfere with the daily production and operation of the companies they hold. The investment company mainly carries out investment and financing and capital operation.

Shen Ying, vice chairman of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission of the State Council (SASAC), revealed the news at a conference celebrating the 80th anniversary of the establishment of CR Group in Shenzhen on December 17.
