(formerly 600057.SH), as well as 75% of Amoi Mobile's equity, a portion of Amoi's software assets, management systems, testing equipment manufactured by its handset division, and handset inventory. The reference price for the auction has been listed at RMB 146.78 mln. The value of the Amoi assets being sold has been appraised at more than RMB 800 mln.
