In the course of our future work, Yunnan Zhongji Law Firm will further refine its organizational and management system for Party building, tailored to the unique characteristics of the legal profession. We will continuously explore and innovate in both the forms and content of Party-building activities, thereby strengthening the leading and safeguarding role of Party organizations in the development of the legal profession. The Party organization of Yunnan Zhongji Law Firm will better leverage its role in driving Party building within the industry, fully harness the exemplary and pioneering role of Party members, unite the strength of all lawyers, better serve the legal needs of the public, and make greater contributions to the construction of a socialist rule-of-law society.

A new trend has emerged in the field of construction engineering: collusion in bidding, often accompanied by bribery and acceptance of bribes, is becoming increasingly common. In fact, such collusive bidding practices have always existed to some extent; however, previously the focus was mainly on investigating and prosecuting bribery and acceptance of bribes, with little attention paid to the related issue of collusive bidding itself. Faced with this new trend, collusive bidding crimes clearly deserve greater attention. Yet even more important is the complexity and controversy surrounding these cases. The complexity of such collusive bidding stems from the intricate interplay among official misconduct, the crime of collusive bidding, differences between administrative and criminal offenses, and the nuanced relationship—dependent on specific factual circumstances—that determines whether a collusive bid actually constitutes a crime. This situation involves not only questions of fact-finding and legal application but also a number of issues that warrant careful examination from both legal and logical perspectives.
In the field of construction engineering, recoverable profits are directly linked to the economic interest balance and protection of the parties to a contract, often amounting to millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of yuan. However, due to the unique characteristics and complexity of construction projects, disputes arising from construction contract disputes frequently give rise to numerous controversies among the parties involved. Moreover, the people's courts do not consistently—nor even uniformly—interpret or apply the standards for awarding compensation for lost recoverable profits, with varying approaches sometimes being markedly different. By analyzing relevant legal provisions and typical cases, this article systematically reviews the current state of judicial practice regarding the protection of recoverable profits in construction engineering, identifies existing problems, and proposes potential solutions, thereby providing reference for the compliant party in anticipating and asserting their recoverable profits.
To thoroughly implement the general requirements for Party building in the new era, fully unleash the fighting fortress effectiveness of grassroots Party organizations and the exemplary role of Party members, and promote the deep integration of Party building with business operations—thus driving high-quality development through high-quality Party building—on July 2, 2025, the Party Branch Committee of Yunnan Zhongji Law Firm and the Second Party Branch of China National Shipbuilding Industry Materials Cloud-Guizhou Co., Ltd. jointly hosted a Party building co-construction symposium and signing ceremony, marking the beginning of a new chapter of cooperation.
