On July 5, 2023, Ms. Luna Jin (Jin Hailian), the Senior Deputy Editor of the renowned legal media "China Business Law Journal", along with the Head of Business Division, Mr. Marco Lam (Lan Weiting), visited Shanghai Landing Law Offices for research and exchange. Senior partners of Shanghai Landing Law Offices, including Attorney Gao Qiang, Attorney Zhang Yijun, Attorney Ding Yanling, Attorney Ji Ming, Attorney Li Haibo, Attorney Zhao Jie, as well as Attorney Li Yuan, who is based in Los Angeles, USA, participated in the discussion.

After congratulating Landing on its recent accolades, which include retaining the "China Business Law Awards" and ranking in the fields of Intellectual Property and Family Wealth Management, both parties delved into discussions on topics of mutual interest, such as legal service market ratings and business collaboration. Attorney Gao Qiang began by briefing on the development of the firm, discussing Landing's future plans, the history and distinctive features of the firm, business scenarios, shifts in client demands, and changes in industry standards. An extensive exchange of views took place on these matters.

Addressing concerns raised by the Landing attorneys, the representatives from "China Business Law Journal" provided detailed answers. Regarding the criteria for their selections, the guests stated that information would be gathered through three channels: direct applications from law firms, email surveys of corporate clients, and open market nominations. Both qualitative and quantitative analytical methods will be adopted, and depending on specific expertise required, third-party experts will be invited for evaluations. They will also consider rankings from other institutions to ensure the objectivity, fairness, and representativeness of their results. Moreover, they indicated that the area of corporate criminal compliance, which has garnered much attention, might be considered for awards this year.

In the realm of brand promotion, "China Business Law Journal" offers collaboration through various means including firm listings, articles, columns, and summits. They commit fully to establishing a bridge between corporate legal departments and attorneys, from topic selection to scheduling, and from format to publication.

The two sides engaged in discussions for over an hour, culminating in a group photo. The event concluded in a joyful atmosphere.
