Group 1: Company Financials and Fundraising - The company plans to issue shares at a ratio of 4 shares for every 10 held, aiming to raise a total of 650 million RMB, which is 24 times its net profit of 27 million RMB over the past five years [3][8]. - The funds raised will be allocated to projects including the construction of a production base in Thailand, technical upgrades at its Zhaoqing base, and the establishment of a headquarters R&D center [3][4]. - Hongte Technology's net profits over the last five years have been 0.21 million RMB, -0.48 million RMB, 0.11 million RMB, 0.15 million RMB, and 0.28 million RMB, totaling only 27 million RMB [8].
