Law is the most powerful weapon for maintaining national stability and the vigorous development of all endeavors, a tool for safeguarding the rights and interests of the people, and a means for rulers to govern the ruled. The ultimate role of law is to uphold social order and ensure the safety and interests of the public. However, as the most powerful weapon, law also requires its pioneers and practitioners—lawyers. To become a lawyer, one must pass the rigorous national judicial examination and obtain a legal professional qualification certificate. For non-law majors, how can one pass the judicial examination, which is known as one of the three "most difficult" exams (the other two being the CPA and civil service exams)?
 

Legal assistant Li Zuolin shares his journey of passing the judicial exam.

On the afternoon of February 22, Zhiming Law Firm held a collective exchange and study session themed "My Path to the Judicial Exam." Lawyers and legal assistants present at the firm participated in this seminar and training in the law firm's conference room.

The exchange was led by intern lawyer Li Zuolin, who shared his mental journey to success in the judicial exam. Li Zuolin mentioned that his aspiration to become a lawyer was inspired by a village teacher. One summer day in 1997 after a rain, during a conversation with a village teacher, the teacher casually mentioned the profession of lawyer, which took root in Li Zuolin's heart and forged an unbreakable bond. After starting work, he frequently borrowed legal books from the library to continuously enrich himself, absorbing legal knowledge comprehensively in both theoretical and practical skills. Through unremitting efforts, he finally obtained the legal professional qualification certificate on his fourth attempt. He also used this opportunity to advise legal enthusiasts about to become lawyers that legal professionals should hold the goddess of justice in their hearts, cultivate the righteousness of heaven and earth, and emulate the perfection of ancient and modern sages.

After the exchange, participants warmly discussed the amusing anecdotes and difficulties they encountered while preparing for the judicial exam, and the entire session proceeded in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
