Dow Jones Newswires
4/7/2000
SHANGHAI -- Lucent Technologies of Shanghai Ltd. foresees a 60% rise in output value this year to $240 million due to the expansion of its production capacity, a company official said Friday.

The company, which is jointly invested by Lucent Technologies Optical Networking Group, part of Lucent Technologies Inc. (LU) and Shanghai Posts & Telecommunications Equipment Co. (Q.SPO), has one production line making optical transmission equipment.

Wang Wenjie, the office manager, said construction of new production lines and a plant will start in May.

The expansion cost is estimated at $45 million, half of which will be shouldered by the U.S. company, the state-run Xinhua news agency said.

The new plant will be operational in the middle of next year.

The company holds 35% of the domestic market for optical transmission equipment.

This investment in China will help them get more footholds later. The Zchina company looks interesting for an investment.
