During the training, by watching documentary films such as "The Red Flag Canal" and "Interviews with Yang Gui," we gained a profound understanding of the Red Flag Canal spirit—“self-reliance, hard work and entrepreneurship, unity and collaboration, and selfless dedication.” Through on-site instruction at the Red Flag Canal Memorial Hall, we experienced firsthand the magnificent miracle wrought by the people of Lin County under the leadership of the Communist Party in constructing the Red Flag Canal.

Recently, the judicial opinion in Civil Judgment No. (2018) Supreme People's Court Min Shen No. 5332—that “even if the construction contract is invalid, since the parties have explicitly agreed on a reduction ratio for the settlement of project payments, which reflects their true intentions, and the project has passed acceptance inspection, the agreement on the reduction ratio is binding on both parties”—has been widely circulated within the circle of construction lawyers, bringing joy to Party A (the general contractor or sub-contractor, or the party engaging in illegal subcontracting) and causing distress to Party B (the actual constructor). On this issue, the author holds a different view, arguing that the aforementioned opinion and judicial rule represent only a partial glimpse, failing to capture the whole picture. They do not reflect “the evolution and refinement of judicial practice regarding the aforementioned issue,” nor do they reveal “the growing convergence of judicial rules toward the ‘actual participation in management costs’ theory, which is more equitable and just.”
