ZHONG LUN AND CONFUCIUS

The name of the firm, 中伦 (Zhong Lun), means to keep in compliance with ethical principles. The term "中伦”first appeared in the Analects of Confucius. The founders of this firm chose "中伦” as our name, signifying our commitment to comply fully with the letter and spirit of the laws, rules and ethical principles that govern us.
