Huafa Industrial Co Ltd ZhuhaiHuafa Industrial is involved in mutual arbitration claims of nearly 1 billion yuan over a cooperation contract dispute, facing potential financial liability.

Sunac Culture & Tourism and Huafa Industrial have initiated mutual arbitration over a cooperation contract dispute, each claiming approximately 480 million yuan. Sunac Culture & Tourism first applied to the Guangzhou Arbitration Commission for a ruling that Zhuhai Huafa Real Estate and Shenzhen Ronghua Land pay liquidated damages totaling 482 million yuan. The two Huafa entities then filed counterclaims, demanding that Sunac Culture & Tourism bear liability for breach of contract and pay 481.5 million yuan. The dispute stems from a jointly developed ice and snow cultural tourism project in Qianhai, Shenzhen, valued in the tens of billions of yuan. The project company, Shenzhen Ronghua Land, was initially 51 percent owned by Sunac Culture & Tourism and 49 percent by Huafa. In 2023, Huafa acquired all of Sunac's equity for approximately 3.582 billion yuan, gaining full control, but Sunac Culture & Tourism retained a repurchase right exercisable before November 23, 2025. Effective June 1, 2026, the ski resort brand name was refreshed as Qianhai Ice and Snow World.
