TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — The former chairman of Sino-American Silicon Products Inc. (SAS, 中美矽晶), Lu Ming-kuang (盧明光), has taken the reins of long-standing home appliances company Tatung (大同) following Tuesday's (Dec. 22) surprise dismissal of incumbent Lin Wen-yuan (林文淵).
Chung Yi-wen (鍾依文), who played a prominent role in the leadership of electronics contract manufacturer Foxconn, has assumed the position of general manager of Tatung. The announcement was made in a press conference on Wednesday (Dec. 23), reported CNA.
Lu, 72, a business tycoon who has been dubbed the “acquisition king,” is best known for spearheading four acquisitions during his stint as SAS’ chair between 2007 and 2020. His leadership propelled SAS to its status as Taiwan’s leading silicon wafer and solar energy products supplier.
