Hu Ding, vice chairman and general manager of new Development ventures, is a resounding figure in Taiwan's investment community.

It is reported that during the period from 1999 to 2002, the investment Department of the Agency invested in enterprises, which accounted for more than 60% of the total listed enterprises in Taiwan. After leaving "China development", Hu Ding established Watson Capital in March 2006 and set up offices in Taipei and Shanghai. According to its website, the majority of the team's members come from the original "China development".  Up to now, the investment cases of Watson Capital include Cross-strait Coffee, Xiamen Steel-Yu.  At the same time, CBN reporter found that the new development of the new venture management company's main team members are mostly from the original "China Development" investment team, this is Hu Ding my brace "works."

Since the "election" of the leaders of Taiwan's "3 22" region, Taiwan's people generally believe that cross-strait exchanges will become more and more extensive and the space for cooperation between the two sides will become larger. According to a source close to the new development venture told CBN Reporter, Taiwanese investors are not familiar with the mainland market, in the entry, many will choose to have the government or the state-funded background of the relevant institutions to ensure stable development and profitability.

In this respect, the founding secretary of the Su Shuzhong did not respond on the spot, he said to CBN reporters, such as Xian, thousands of years of cultural capital, the most suitable for investment in cultural tourism industry.  and Inner Mongolia, mining and animal husbandry resources are very rich, these areas have investment value. But now the regional industrial policy is identical, for example photoelectric semiconductor, biopharmaceutical and so on, each province is developing.
