Dear clients, friends and colleagues,

I am delighted to present you with our 2013 Annual Report.

2013 was a red-letter year in the history of Zhong Lun, for it marked the 20th anniversary of this fast growing law firm. Looking back over the past 20 years, we are proud of the significant progress we have made in enhancing our service offerings and growing our international client base. We believe this progress stands as a clear testament to your long-term cooperation, dedication, understanding and commitment to the firm, for which, please allow me to take this opportunity, on behalf of the firm, to extend our sincerest gratitude to each and every one of you.

In spite of a slow recovery in the world economy during 2013, Zhong Lun maintained its steady growth momentum and shouldered more social responsibility. 2013 also saw further progress in the firm’s expansion of its global presence with the opening of the New York Office. This presents us with more opportunities to serve our clients in a more diversified way and marks a new step in the firm’s development.

As we hail our inspired accomplishments of the past 20 years, it is also important for each one of us to think about one question – “What shall we do in the next 20 years?” To maintain our leading position in the Chinese law profession and fulfill our strategy of developing into a large-scale, professional, specialized and forward- looking law firm, we need to embrace development trends and keep pace with the times. There is a lot of work ahead. We will continue our commitment to enhancing risk control in the legal profession, refining the division of our legal services based on specialization, strengthening collaboration among different divisions and offices, infusing fresh blood into the management structure, building a fairer and more workable and standardized institutional system, and ensuring a balanced development of divisions and work teams. We are also working on a plan to ally with other leading law firms in a bid to better integrate resources and create conditions for cooperation and sharing among lawyers.

When we glance back over the past 20 years, we feel grateful for the opportunities brought by the times and society, the unwavering support extended by our friends from all walks of life, and the expertise and dedication given by our Zhong Lun people. With the new year unfolding before us, we look forward to continuing working with you to further enhance our commitment to creating a legal system that is more open, fairer, more sharing and harmonious.
