It makes systematic provisions around key issues such as the identification of new hidden bribes, simultaneous management of bribery, and the disposal of property involved, reflecting the further improvement of the concept of duty-based crime management and judicial rules. Facing the practical challenges brought by the new regulations, legal practitioners must not only accurately grasp the content of the provisions, but also have a deep understanding of the policy orientation and judicial logic behind them.

President Wang Xiaodong first started from the formulation background, overall thinking and basic principles of "Interpretation (2)", and then deeply elaborated on the historical background and practical needs of the promulgation of this judicial interpretation. He pointed out that "Interpretation (II)" is an important judicial document issued ten years after the implementation of "Interpretation (I)" in the face of new circumstances such as the comprehensive advancement of the reform of the supervisory system, profound changes in the anti-corruption struggle situation, and the continuous improvement of criminal law amendments. It explains the adherence to the "zero tolerance" policy of punishing corruption, implements the requirements of promoting the integration of dare not corrupt, cannot corrupt, and do not want to corrupt, fully embodies the concepts of people-centered, equal protection of property rights, adhering to the principle of the rule of law and the unity of integrity and innovation, systematically improves the rules for the application of laws on official crimes, and provides an important basis for unifying judicial standards and improving the quality and efficiency of case handling.
Subsequently, President Wang Xiaodong conducted an in-depth interpretation of the fifteen key contents involved in the "Interpretation (2)" and systematically analyzed controversial issues in judicial practice based on typical cases. He focused on hot issues such as equal protection of the non-public economy, determination of bribery based on expected returns such as stocks and equity, distinction between unit crimes and natural person crimes, determination of active return of stolen goods and compensation, recovery of illegal gains, etc. He also focused on explaining the manifestations of new job-related crimes that have attracted much attention in practice. He pointed out that "Interpretation (2)" clarified for the first time the rules for determining the amount of bribes when property interests such as stocks and equity are used as bribes. At the same time, it further improved the punishment mechanism for bribery crimes and the rules for the disposal of property involved, which is of great significance for unifying judgment standards and standardizing law enforcement and judicial activities. The entire lecture closely integrated theory and practice, providing practical guidance for participating lawyers to accurately understand and apply "Interpretation (2)".
