Dear leaders and colleagues:

I am very happy to meet with my familiar partners again in this way! Today, I was hired as the executive director of Beijing Docvit (Tianjin) Law Firm. This is the recognition and acceptance for me. I would like to express my heartfelt thanks for your trust and support!

As the executive director of Beijing Docvit (Tianjin) Law Firm, I have some insights and ideas to share with you:

I. Clear goals, clear positioning, and create “Docvit National Talent Strategy Center”

On December 23, 2018, Beijing Docvit (Tianjin) Law Firm officially went to trial operation. Historically, the Tianjin branch is the first branch of Docvit's national map except the Beijing office. Her significance is extraordinary. Since its establishment, Beijing Docvit (Tianjin) Law Firm has defined its development goals and positioning. We are based in Tianjin, focusing on Beijing -Tianjin -Hebei, radiating across the country, creating a “Docvit National Talent Strategy Center”, and promoting the integration of lawyers' practice in “Beijing -Tianjin -Hebei”.

This is not a simple propaganda slogan, but also the goal and direction of our future development. Under this strategic positioning, Docvit (Tianjin) will make comprehensive layout in management, business, talent, platform and other aspects, and make key breakthroughs.

II. Give play to regional advantages, policy advantages, and lay out business systems

Tianjin, the economic center of Bohai rim region, is the largest open coastal city in north China, with irreplaceable advantages. In the “Beijing -Tianjin -Hebei Collaborative Development Plan”, Tianjin has been positioned as a national advanced manufacturing R&D base, a northern international shipping core zone, a financial innovation operation demonstration zone, and a reform and development pioneer zone. Therefore, with its historical and cultural heritage, Tianjin has a unique advantages of her geographical position and a major mission endowed by the state, and has developed unlimited potential for development. 

Beijing Docvit (Tianjin) Law Firm will give full play to its geographical advantages and policy advantages, and promote its work from talent introduction, business development and brand promotion.

III. Based on Tianjin legal market, carrying out tasks step by step

As the executive director, my responsibilities are enormous. For the direction and deployment of Tianjin Branch in 2019, I simply summarize the following:

Firstly, we will strengthen party building and establish good relations with relevant organizations and institutions. Adhering to the principles and policies of "promoting development through party building", Beijing Docvit (Tianjin) Law Firm will strengthen political stance and promote justice, strengthen the level of practice and promote the rule of law, adhere to party building and lead economic development. In addition, during the trial period, we have established good relations with the local judicial bureau, lawyers association and other government departments. The party branch of Beijing Docvit (Tianjin) Law Firm will be established soon. Our partner is hired as the legal counsel of Tianjin Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and maintains cooperative relations with many state-owned enterprises in Tianjin.

Secondly, we are going to do a good job in the daily management of the branch and open up the local business market. From the management perspective, Beijing Docvit (Tianjin) Law Firm will establish and improve the management of all aspects, such as system construction, personnel management and business management to ensure the smooth operation. At the business level, Tianjin Branch insists on serving two orientations of Tianjin “Northern International Shipping Core Area and Financial Innovation Operation Demonstration Zone”. Relying on the strong support of Docvit headquarters, Tianjin Branch will promote industrialized services in the fields of finance, logistics, maritime affairs. Docvit Tianjin Branch is aiming to becoming a benchmark of industry development and innovation.

Thirdly, we will establish a unique brand image of Tianjin branch. Docvit has always insisted on creating a high-quality and powerful law firm. Docvit Tianjin Branch will be in line with the brand concept of the headquarters. As a branch office, the strategy should not only keep consistent with the general office, but also highlight the local characteristics. Therefore, in the organization and planning of various activities, we should not only cooperate with the headquarters, but also do a good job in the market landing work. We want to be a law firm that makes clients have more sense of security, identity, and achievement.

Finally, we will introduce excellent partners and lawyers to build “Docvit National Talent Strategy Center”. 2019 is a key year for Docvit’s three-year development plan. We will use the "same road plan" as the strategic planning guide to integrate talent introduction, incubation and development. We will ensure the introduction and training of talents and provide good services to partners and lawyers in both hardware and software. We must not only create a comfortable, warm working environment, but also let lawyers practice and develop with dignity. In this regard, the headquarters has done a good demonstration. What we have to do is not to copy, but to think from the perspective of lawyers and let lawyers have a sense of belonging and gain.

A few months ago, I participated in the trial operation of Tianjin Branch with excitement mood. Now as the executive director of Tianjin Branch, I am not only under pressure, but also have the motivation and confidence to keep my mission and work hard. I will work with all the colleagues of Docvit Tianjin Branch to create a high-quality, powerful law firm!

  • Preventing corporate governance risks under new Company Law2024-07-03
    The new Company Law promotes the transformation of corporate governance from shareholder primacy to director primacy. This imposes governance responsibility on entrepreneurs such as directors, supervisors, officers (DSOs) and actual controllers of a company, increasing their risk of performing duties with their personal property at stake. Therefore, reducing the risk of entrepreneurs and their families facing compensation over corporate governance is of great concern.
  • How to deal with the failures to fulfill duty of diligence?2021-10-25
    Both party A and party B are shareholders of company a, with a accounting for 30% of the shares and B for a state-owned enterprise holding company, accounting for 50% of the shares. Mr. Li is a director appointed by company B to company a, and also the head of financial department of company A. At the beginning of 2021, party A learned that there was still 1 million yuan of capital contribution of company B due but not paid in, and Mr. Li never called on company B according to his duty when he clearly learned that company B did not fulfill his obligation of capital contribution. In addition, Li used his authority to change the management authority of company A's office system, adjust the relevant processes and procedures of the company's internal management, and put pressure on the employees without reason, resulting in the failure of company A's normal operation for three consecutive months. In view of Li's behavior, how should company a and shareholders a protect the rights and interests of the company and themselves?
  • Voting rights can be restricted if shareholders fail to invest?2021-08-24
    In recent years, the competition for corporate control has become more and more intense. The form of competition is no longer confined to the background, but gradually moved to the stage. In order to fight for corporate control, the disputes about the representation of corporate will caused by the internal power struggle in commercial cases are increasing. Voting right has also become the focus of contention among shareholders. If they fail to fulfill the obligation of capital contribution on schedule, there are serious differences among shareholders about whether their voting right can be limited. In the absence of special provisions in the articles of association, should shareholders vote according to the proportion of paid in capital contribution or the proportion of subscribed capital contribution?
