Abstract: 2018, China’s judicial reform revolved around the tasks and objectives of “promoting the comprehensive reform of the judicial system” deployed by the central government. Progress has been made in deepening the reform of the state supervision system, implementing the judicial responsibility system, improving the people’s jury system, developing specialized trials, and deepening judicial openness.However, subject to the constraints of the system and other factors, the reform efforts are limited. In the context of the difficulty in achieving critical breakthroughs in institutional reform, a viable strategy is to promote close justice and gradually improve the judicial ecology through technological changes such as judicial transparency.

Key words: judicial reform;comprehensive judicial reform, technological changes in reform, judicial transparency
