116 years ago today, on February 16, 1909 (January 26, 1909, the "Nanyang Brothers" tobacco company rose again. On February 16, 1909, Guangdong Nanyang Tobacco Company, which closed down in 1908 due to a crackdown by British American Tobacco, officially opened for business for the second time. Brothers Jian Zhaonan and Jian Yujie renamed the company "Guangdong Nanyang Brothers Tobacco Company" to show their sincere unity. The Jane brothers started their business in 1905. After poor business, their products gradually became marketable, and the business of "Baihe" brand cigarettes became booming day by day. However, it soon attracted hostility from British American Tobacco, who accused it of plagiarizing packaging and forcibly burning high-value Nanyang products. However, the Jane brothers have not given up on the idea of opening a tobacco factory, and have been actively planning to continue opening the factory privately. Later, Jian Mingshi was asked to invest in the purchase of machinery and other equipment originally owned by Nanyang, Guangdong. After adjustment, he was re-listed on February 16 with a total capital of 130,000 yuan and an unlimited company in Hong Kong.
