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".

The initial intent of fixed-price contracts is to control costs and avoid overruns. The employer, by using a fixed price, transfers risks within the normal scope during the construction period to the contractor, thus gaining budget certainty. The contractor, through independent bidding, comprehensively considers construction costs, anticipated profits, and risk premiums. Once signed, the contractor bears market risks such as fluctuations in material and labor prices during the contract term. The rise and fall of market prices fall within the scope of commercial risks: price increases may lead to reduced profits or even losses for the contractor, but price decreases can also increase the contractor's profits. Therefore, unless the construction content and contract conditions change, the contractor may not request an adjustment to the contract price due to general price fluctuations. However, this "absolute lump sum" is not without exceptions. This article will analyze typical scenarios to discuss when fixed prices can be adjusted and their legal basis.
