The position of commercial law in China's civil law codification is crucial for its success and impacts the country's legal system and market economy. China's approach to civil legislation doesn't separate civil and commercial laws but aims for their unification. The goal is not to add more commercial law rules but to integrate civil and commercial laws based on the needs of business activities. This integration is necessary due to the unique nature of commercial law rules. The civil code must be flexible to adapt to the complex realities of modern business.
