[Zhongji Briefing] Attorney Yang Chunyan from our firm was invited to deliver a special lecture titled “Protecting Youth in the Name of the Law”—on the “Law on the Protection of Minors” and the “Law on the Prevention of Juvenile Delinquency.”
Starting from June 1, 2021, the newly revised “Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Protection of Minors” and the “Law of the People’s Republic of China on the Prevention of Juvenile Delinquency” have officially come into effect. To enhance minors’ awareness of the newly revised provisions and foster a strong atmosphere on campus dedicated to safeguarding their healthy growth, on September 26 and September 27, 2021, Attorney Yang Chunyan from our firm was invited by Xishan School of Zhonghua Primary School in Kunming City and Hongqi Primary School in Wuhua District, Kunming City, respectively, to deliver special legal education lectures titled “Protecting Our Youth in the Name of Law”—focused on the “Law on the Protection of Minors” and the “Law on the Prevention of Juvenile Delinquency.”

Attorney Yang Chunyan used “legal age” as a starting point to analyze the age stages of persons with no civil capacity, persons with limited civil capacity, and persons with full civil capacity, thereby enabling students to understand the civil and criminal responsibilities that minors are required to bear.
Focusing on the key revisions and highlights of the "Law on the Protection of Minors" and the "Law on the Prevention of Juvenile Delinquency," this session uses real-life cases to explain the law, highlighting eight major features of the Law on the Protection of Minors: refining the guardians’ responsibilities in caring for and protecting “left-behind children”; establishing a clear basic system for preventing and addressing campus bullying; building and improving systems related to the prevention and handling of sexual assault cases; requiring lodging operators—such as hostels, guesthouses, and hotels—to conduct inquiries and submit reports; strengthening the cybersecurity “firewall” and intensifying supervision to prevent addiction; and achieving full coverage of juvenile protection throughout the judicial process. Additionally, the Law on the Prevention of Juvenile Delinquency no longer uses the term “custodial education,” instead clearly stipulating that the state will strengthen the construction of specialized schools, define clear standards for identifying harmful behaviors and serious harmful behaviors, and establish a comprehensive system for preventing and controlling student bullying. These highlights enable students to directly experience that the law not only protects “youth” but also sets inviolable red lines for them under the law.
During the lecture, lawyer Yang Chunyan showed educational animated videos titled “School Bullying” and “Braving the Valley of Youth,” enabling students to gain a deeper understanding of the harm caused by school bullying. At the same time, students learned how to respond if they were ever subjected to school bullying. Through vivid and engaging videos, students also gained insight into how current laws truly protect young people.
This legal lecture, combined with real-life examples of juvenile protection and criminal cases, focuses on practical, everyday situations to carry out targeted publicity on the legal protection of minors, thereby effectively enhancing its impact, appeal, and persuasiveness. It helps students recognize that the “Law on the Protection of Minors” provides a robust protective umbrella for safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of minors, while the “Law on the Prevention of Juvenile Delinquency” builds a strong legal barrier against juveniles going astray. By harnessing the power of the rule of law, these laws ensure the healthy growth of young people and significantly enhance students’ awareness and understanding of the legal system.

[Zhongji Briefing] Yunnan Xindao Law Firm Visited Our Firm to Conduct Business Exchange Activities
On July 23, 2025, a delegation led by Director Liu Haoyuan from Yunnan Xindao Law Firm (hereinafter referred to as “Xindao Firm”), including lawyers Long Yan, Dong Xiongshi, Feng Lin, and Zhou Huijuan, visited our firm to engage in business exchange activities.
The right of the actual contractor to claim payment for the project work is derived from Article 793, Paragraph 1 of the Civil Code of the People’s Republic of China and Article 24 of the Supreme People’s Court’s Interpretation (I) on the Application of Laws in Handling Disputes over Construction Project Contracting Contracts. Both provisions stipulate that such right is contingent upon the “construction project having passed acceptance inspection.” Consequently, in practice, it is common for the project owner or the contractor to raise the defense that “the project constructed by the actual contractor has quality problems,” thereby challenging the actual contractor’s right to payment. This often gives rise to disputes: If a project has quality problems, does the actual contractor necessarily lose his or her right to claim payment for the project work?
