The centralism of trial is an important guide to the reform of Chinese Civil litigation. After the Chinese civil trial reform went through two stages of formalization and materialization, it was presented as the central judicial reform at the fourth plenary session of the 18th central committee of the communist party of China(CPC), it was presented as the quality civil trial reform, which is the third stage of civil trial reform. The civil trial optimization reform is a series of reform in the context of the litigant's litigation mode, focusing on the improvement of the quality and efficiency of the civil trial. The pilot reform of Chengdu intermediate people’s court is typical and one of the few courts to carry out the reform. It mainly emphasizes the decisive role of the trial in the civil judgment, and emphasizes the improvement of the pre-trial procedure and strengthens the court proceedings, providing valuable pilot experience for national promotion.

In general, the civil trial optimization reform is a systematic reform, which should be observed and designed from the perspective of civil judicial reform. To be specific, first of all, the pretrial procedure should be reconstructed, Dispute settlement should be strength, The diversion function of simplicity should be highlighted, Dispute resolution function should be protruded, and the evidence exchange function should be improved.
