MMALATIN CEO Mr. Diego Martinez Bernie visits Shanghai GuoChuang law firm

On November 6, 2025, Diego Martinez Bernie, CEO of MMALATIN, visited a law firm in Shanghai. Chen Min, Director of Shanghai Guochuang Law Firm, Ji Xin, Partner, and Li Runxuan, Legal Assistant, warmly welcomed them.

Firstly, based on the development history of law firms and the background of legal development in China, Chen Min, the director of our firm and the director of Shanghaiguo Innovation Institute, unveiled the advanced path of China's foreign-related law from its inception to professionalization for Diego - the growth of Guochuang Institute, which is a vivid epitome of the development process of China's foreign-related law. The starting point of the development of Guochuang Institute is aimed at the early traditional civil and commercial legal business needs in China. With the deepening of the country's reform and opening up, and the increasing frequency of foreign economic exchanges, the foreign-related legal needs have grown from scratch, from simple to complex. Guochuang Institute has also adjusted its development direction, shifted its focus to the development and service of the "the Belt and Road" legal market, completed the transformation from traditional business to foreign-related characteristic business, and resonated with the establishment and improvement of China's foreign-related legal system.

While deepening its cultivation in the Central Asian market, Guochuang Institute is also actively planning new foreign service territories. Lawyer Ji Xin stated that in addition to continuously promoting foreign-related legal services in Central Asia, the law firm also plans to open up the market in South America and Latin America, providing professional legal support for more Chinese companies to enter Latin America. In order to provide a clearer understanding of the Latin American market environment, Diego provided a detailed introduction to the economic development layout of the Latin American region, taking into account the current international situation. He focused on interpreting five countries including Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Argentina, and Uruguay, providing attendees with a more intuitive understanding of the economic characteristics and investment environment of major Latin American countries, and laying a cognitive foundation for the law firm's subsequent layout of legal services in the region.

For the future, Guochuang Institute will continue to focus on deepening legal services in key countries, continuously promote the development of foreign-related legal services towards specialization and refinement, and provide better legal support to help Chinese enterprises go more steadily and further in the wave of globalization.
