China sells 1.6 trillion cigarettes every year, and Chinese people consume about one-third of the world's cigarettes. In 2012, the number of Chinese smokers was about 320-360 million, accounting for about one-third of the total number of smokers in the world. The consumer base is huge.

But now most smokers have realized that smoking is harmful to health. In order to smoke fewer cigarettes or to reduce the intake of nicotine per unit time, many smokers start to divide one cigarette into multiple smokings. The craving for cigarettes also expects to reduce the intake of nicotine during one smoking process, so many smokers take a few puffs and then pinch out the cigarettes and throw them away. Usually, the length of filter cigarettes is 81, 84, 90 or 100mm, and the length is relatively Fixed, take a few puffs and throw it away, causing a lot of waste. Some smokers are reluctant to throw it away, so they take a few puffs and extinguish it first, and then light it up after a while when they want to smoke. However, studies have shown that when the ignited shredded tobacco is lit again for smoking, more tar and harmful substances are accumulated in the extinguished cigarette, and at the same time, more harmful substances are brought into the body when lit again. Therefore, the extinguished cigarette cannot be smoked again.
