According to Article 14o of the"Criminal Law",a natural person or a legal person does not commit a crime of selling fake or inferior products until the amount of sales surpasses RMB50 o00.In the authors opinion,the amount of sales includes the factual amount and the contractual amount,if the amount is below RMB50 o00,the criminal suspect should not be punished for attempted committing this crime,since the constitutive elements of a crime prescribed in the subprovision of the criminal law do not make"accomplishment"as its mode;and the same amount criterion in the criminal law for a natural person and a legal person to commit this crime implies the idea to protect legitimate interests.
