Public records show that Shenzhen Furui Lingke Industrial Co., Ltd. was established in July 2014. It is a comprehensive enterprise specializing in dry-burn e-cigarette products, with multiple sub-brands including the G9 brand under its operation.

 

It is worth noting that in May 2024, the State Tobacco Monopoly Administration issued a notice stating that Shenzhen Kangteke Technology Co., Ltd. had ceased its e-cigarette related operations. A search on the official website of the National Tobacco Administration revealed that Kangteke was the first company to be publicly ordered to stop e-cigarette related operations, followed by Furi Lingke as the second.
