The e-cigarette industry faces many challenges and opportunities this year. The government has taken stricter measures in supervision, especially in terms of youth protection and public health. Therefore, we actively promote technological innovation and environmental protection measures to improve product safety and reduce environmental impact. The expansion of export markets follows a new regulatory environment and compliance requirements. Therefore, we must explore new growth opportunities while ensuring product safety and quality and complying with strict regulatory frameworks. In terms of environmental protection, we adhere to the principles of environmental friendliness and sustainable development, and minimize the negative impact of e-cigarettes on the environment by recycling discarded e-cigarettes and reproducing them. In terms of social responsibility, we do not sell products to teenagers aged 18 or 21.
