The amended Company Law of the People's Republic of China, in light of the needs of economic and social developments in recent years, has made in-depth adjustments to the existing Company Law in several areas, such as optimizing the corporate governance structure, protecting the rights of shareholders, strengthening the responsibility of shareholders' investment, strengthening the responsibilities of directors' supervisors, adding special provisions for state-funded companies, and facilitating the establishment and deregistration process of companies.
