Legal analysis: contracts generally require the signature of the legal representative. In the case of a legal person, the signing of a contract requires the signature of the legal representative, so that the contract can take legal effect. As an independent civil subject, a company can sign a contract in its own name or authorize its legal representative to sign a contract, and the corresponding rights and obligations shall be enjoyed and undertaken by the company. Therefore, generally speaking, the signature of the legal representative is needed to represent the will of the company.

Legal basis: Civil Code of People's Republic of China (PRC).

Article 490 Where the parties conclude a contract in the form of a contract, the contract is formed when the parties sign, seal or fingerprint it. Before signing, sealing or fingerprinting, one party has fulfilled its main obligations, and the contract is established when the other party accepts it. A contract shall be concluded in written form as stipulated by laws, administrative regulations or agreed by the parties. If the parties do not do this in writing, but one party has fulfilled its main obligations and the other party accepts it, the contract is established.
