Abstract: Abstract The history of corporate M&A in China is a magnificent and mysterious picture scroll in the country’s economic transformation. This chapter intends to draw an outline of and analyze this phenomenal picture from the perspective of government behaviors. It first gives a general empirical description of the wave of M&A of Chinese enterprises and their macro motivations, and then presents a deconstructive analysis of the typical phenomena that form the waves, privatization of local SOEs, local SOEs establishing connectivity with the central SOEs, the reverse takeovers or RTOs, to explore the mechanism of government conducts and the institutional environment on the creation of the waves.
