Abstract
 
The negative effects caused by emergencies are inevitable. Sudden public events are also a great challenge for international economy and global governance. In the 21st century digital information era, especially after emergencies, people's desire for information exchanges has highlighted the position and role of government information disclosure. Based on this, the disclosure of government information is of great significance for the public, socioeconomic, government functions, and emergencies itself. At present, government information disclosure and digital government construction of countries around the world have made great progress. In 2019, the State Council amended the "Regulations on the Disclosure of Government Information", which made the system arrangement more perfect and became a "behavioral benchmark" for local government information disclosure. But even so, there are still lack of legislative level, procedural level, management level, and content level. To this end, the government needs to start with the legislative level, the incident itself, and the diverse subject.
