Brief English Introduction
Qu examines what happens when the legal representative or board cannot effectively act for the company. The article is important because it rejects a purely organ-based account of the legal representative and supports an agency understanding that leaves room for shareholder meeting reserve power in governance breakdowns.
Use It For
Use it as an English-language theoretical bridge between Chinese legal representative doctrine and common-law debates about residual shareholder power.
Teaching Notes
Ask students whether shareholders should ever be able to represent the company directly when the board and legal representative are disabled.
