On September 12, 2008, exactly before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Dr. Detlef Hass, partner of Munich Office of Lovells LLP as well as Lawyer Daozheng Chen from Lovells Shanghai and Lawyer Weiting Li from Lovells Beijing visited Tahota Law Firm and launched a heated discussion. Over ten lawyers from International Business Department including Lawyer Qianhong Tang (senior partner of Tahota), Lawyer Chunyan Ma (partner of Tahota) and Lawyer Ju Huang took part in the discussion.

Dr. Hass introduced the investment environment of Chinese companies in Germany and other relevant conditions to Tahota Law Firm and also mentioned matters requiring attention during investment of Chinese enterprises in Germany. After completion of introduction of Dr. Hass, each lawyer and participants raised various questions concerning legal doubts about investment of Chinese enterprises in Germany and foreign-related investment. Each aired his own view and the discussion was heated.

Lovells LLP was a member and initiator of SGLA. The purpose of this travel of Dr. Hass from Munich far away was to promote internal communication of SGLA. Tahota Law Firm further walked towards internationalization in these communication activities. We believed more internationalized communication projects would make the internationalization press of Tahota quicker and more stable in the near future.
