On the afternoon of April 23, 2017, at the joint invitation of the Zunyi Lawyers Association and the Zunyi Arbitration Commission, Lawyer Zhang Zheng went to Zunyi City to attend the 2017 training event for practicing lawyers in Guizhou Province. He also taught a commercial arbitration course entitled "The Difference between Arbitration and Litigation - How Lawyers Act as Commercial Arbitrators" to over 1000 lawyers and arbitrators who participated in the training. 

Lawyer Zhang Zheng first explained the actual situation of the increasing number of arbitration cases year by year. He said that the growing popularity of commercial arbitration stems from five advantages over litigation: first, commercial arbitration can better reflect the autonomy of the parties, and flexible handling methods give the parties more choice; Second, commercial arbitration is more confidential; Thirdly, the principle of one final arbitration embodies higher efficiency; Fourth, stronger extraterritorial effects. Fifth, experts adjudicate cases. The core difference between litigation and arbitration is that they have different sources of power. Commercial arbitration is a legal service derived from the authorization of both parties; The litigation is derived from the national coercive force. In addition, Lawyer Zhang Zheng also emphasized that friendly arbitration relies on the inner kindness and inner cognition of both parties.

Lawyer Zhang Zheng's lecture received a warm response from the students and received a great deal of praise. The leader of the Zunyi Arbitration Commission expressed the hope that Lawyer Zhang Zheng would provide stronger support for the arbitration cause of Zunyi with his rich practical experience!
