The first is to prevent others from committing crimes, the second is to report others' crimes or provide important clues to solve a case, which are verified to be true.
The third is to assist the public security organs in capturing suspects of other crimes, the fourth is to have outstanding achievements in technological innovation during production.
The fifth is to have positive performance in disaster relief, and the last one is major meritorious performance recognition, meaning having significant inventions or technological innovations.
