The 2013 revision of the Company Law introduced a subscribed capital system. For a long time, the promotion of the subscribed capital system has played a positive role in lowering the threshold for establishment and encouraging venture capital, but it has also brought about problems such as shareholders delaying or refusing to pay up capital contributions, inflated company capital, and difficulties for creditors in pursuing claims. The new Company Law, which came into effect on July 1, 2024, has made several adjustments to the subscribed capital system for limited liability company shareholders, especially providing clearer regulations on the definition of shareholder liability in cases of unpaid capital contributions and the remedies available to creditors. This paper analyzes and discusses various situations in which creditors claim legal responsibility from company shareholders for failure to fulfill or fully fulfill their capital contribution obligations under the old and new Company Laws.

Recently, in a case where the appellant, Shandong Construction and Installation Group Co., Ltd., represented by the author, and the appellee, Gong Mouhai, were involved in a creditor's subrogation right dispute, Shandong Intermediate People's Court reversed the first-instance judgment: revoking the first-instance judgment and rejecting all the litigation requests of Gong Mouhai. This case is a typical example where Gong Mouhai subcontracted part of the labor from the actual contractor and carried out construction, and now claims subrogation rights as a creditor, requesting the project general contractor, Shandong Construction and Installation Group Co., Ltd., to pay him the project payment. The first-instance court supported all of Gong Mouhai's litigation requests, but the second-instance court revoked the original judgment and rejected all of his litigation requests on the grounds that "the breach of contract relativity is not established" and "the amount of the debt is not determined".
