Author's note:

This time 8 years ago, I was in Shandong Ji'nan Shandong bangyuan law firm. At this time, I had become a practicing lawyer for ten years. Now, everybody was saying we lawyer occupation hundred years dream. However, a hundred years to the individual, is a lifetime. In ten years, is the life of the 1/10. Therefore, my ten years practicing law when, should do something interesting, meaningful things. So, after a period of time thinking, thinking. I feel I can do two things contribute to our Chinese lawyer industry. A national initiative is to set up Chinese lawyer Festival, when my initiative issued to the National People's Congress, the Ministry of justice, the National Lawyers Association, many of the nation's leading etc.. Soon, hundreds of national media published the initiative, the National Lawyers Association dedicated to reply; one is to straighten out the Chinese ancient art of war "thirty-six meter" wrote a "thirty-six meter and the stratagem of lawyer", later, Shandong people's Publishing House published the book at public expense, changed its name to "36" for the win. Unexpectedly, the "China lawyer" magazine chief editor Liu Guiming specially written brilliant book review: "do lawyers need a strategy", and recommended me to speak at the sixth session of China lawyers forum held in Taiyuan. And, specially for I prepared speech: "about the lawyer in practice how to use the 'trap', how to use the 'city'..." still haunting many of these good memories.

Flexor calculation, I initiated the establishment of China lawyer's distance, has been almost ten years, between, many a person with breadth of vision have also initiated the establishment of China lawyer Festival, now, "to find French" sponsored "China Network Law Convention" bosom overall situation, grasp the trend, focusing event, with when all is entered, initiated the establishment of "Chinese initiative the lawyer Festival", lets the human dance for joy! I think, the establishment of China lawyer Festival, should belong to the "rule of law Chinese dream dream" "China lawyer dream" content.

From the Chinese historical tradition, in the two thousand years of the long feudal society, China No lawyer system; China lawyer system, is a product of the western capitalist countries follow the judicial system in the late Qing Dynasty in the movement; in the darkness of the old China, lawyer system exist, the lawyer only focused on Shanghai, Nanjing City, and, the Kuomintang government of sympathy for the working people's progressive lawyer supports the just cause, (such as Shi Yang, Shen Junru, Shi Liang, etc.) of persecution. The establishment of the new Chinese after 1949, the Communist Party of Chinese abolished the old Chinese lawyer system, lawyer system to the time of the Soviet Union as the object, setting up a new system of lawyers, however, the anti rightist movement began in 1957, due to the influence of leftist ideology, the expansion of the anti rightist struggle to stifle new Chinese lawyer system in the cradle. From then on, appeared in China for over 20 years without a lawyer system blank period. The "Gang of four" after grinding, our country has entered a new period of bring order out of chaos. In March 5, 1978 five National People's Congress through the "people's Republic of China Constitution" restoration of the criminal defense system, from then on, China's lawyer system developed rapidlyIn December 9, 1979, the Ministry of justice, issued a "notice" on the restoration of law, clearly announced the resumption of the lawyer system.In August 26, 1980, the five session of the fifteenth meeting of the Standing Committee discussed and adopted the "law regulations of people's Republic of China",This is about the law system legislation first Chinese. Since then, with China's socialist democracy, socialist legal system development requirements, conform to the development of China's reform and opening up, the economic situation in the country, with the establishment of a harmonious society material civilization, spiritual civilization, political civilization,In May 15, 1996, the eight session of the nineteenth meeting of the Standing Committee unanimously adopted the "Lawyers Law of the people's Republic"In our country, improve the system of lawyers is a milepost, development of our country's law system. Thus, the lawyer system establishment, development, perfection, so it reflects the political environment,, as a lawyer, we are now in a great era of the rule of law, political Qingming! Our late second generation leader Deng Xiaoping once said in the 80's, Chinese need at least 300000 lawyers. In 2004 January, Hu Jintao General Secretary of the Central Committee leadership is made important instructions on our team of lawyers, lawyers work, put forward the general requirement for our country to construct a "keep the faith, proficient in law, justice, honesty" lawyers, show that the central leadership of our lawyers. Hope and love.

There is no doubt, China's lawyer system recovery 26 years, lawyers in China and the country's reform and opening up the pace of wind and rain peers, and the "rule of law" pulse closely, to obtain the considerable development in its own industry, has made outstanding contributions to the society: the majority of lawyers to actively participate in the litigation activities, has become a maintenance state the correct implementation of law and social stability, an important force in promoting the construction of democracy and legal system; secondly, the majority of lawyers actively involved in social practice of economic construction and reform and opening up of the surge high and sweep forward, has become an important force in promoting reform and opening up and the socialist market economic order maintenance; once again, our lawyers concerned with national legislation, to provide legal services for government, and there are many lawyers participate directly in the formulation of laws, local laws and regulations, and actively participate in politics, now, the country has more than 400 as a lawyer at all levels of people's Congress, has more than 1200 lawyers of the CPPCC committees at different levels, so, our lawyers have become an important force in the rule of law; in addition, the majority of lawyers in the practice activities, to publicize the party and state policies, actively spread the spirit of law system, Popularization of legal knowledge, actively participate in public welfare undertakings and public welfare activities, therefore, our lawyers have become an important force in promoting the spiritual civilization and the social civilization and progress. And, in the judicial and administrative departments at all levels, the majority of lawyers, lawyers' Association and the community concern and support, our lawyers of the organization of a person with breadth of vision, such as "law and the rule of tour forum", from 2001 of the next year, "Chinese lawyers forum", has aroused attention and has important social activities Chinese lawyer, enhanced the cohesion, so that the development of China lawyers have more normative goals, expand the social influence of lawyers.

However, unavoidable fact is, relative to the police, judges, prosecutors, these "legal occupation community" law enforcement personnel, Chinese lawyers also belong to the community "vulnerable groups", coupled with some bad customs, the history of the objective existence of social corruption, social contribution law division of the social position in reality is not to adapt and lawyers should be, the lawyer occupation position in the whole country in the institutional framework is not yet clear, its occupation high-level function cannot effectively, so, as a practicing lawyer for more than ten years, considering the construction of democracy and legal system of our country's point of view, as the reform and opening up social and economic construction, consider to defend the justice of law, in order to maintain social justice, to safeguard the legitimate rights and interests of the parties to consider, implement, considering the development of lawyer profession...... I would like to the initiative, lawyers, please refer to our country to set up the journalist day, teacher's day, nurse Festival precedent, setting up a holiday for our own: China lawyer day! And establish good social fashion the whole society to respect the lawyer. Because, to respect the law, is to respect the law, is to respect the norms, is the respect is to respect justice, justice, is to respect the rights and interests......
