According to Article 275 of the Criminal Procedure Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), anyone who was under 18 years old at the time of committing the crime and was sentenced to five years' imprisonment shall seal up the relevant criminal records. If the criminal record is sealed, it shall not be provided to any unit or individual, except for the need of judicial organs to handle cases or the relevant units to make inquiries in accordance with state regulations. Units that inquire according to law shall keep the sealed criminal records confidential.

In order to thoroughly implement the policy of "education, probation and salvation" and the principle of "education first, punishment second" by the party and the state, and effectively help juvenile offenders return to society, according to the relevant provisions of the Criminal Procedure Law, combined with the reality of the protection of minors in China, the system of sealing criminal records of juvenile offenders is established. In other words, the criminal records of minors who were under the age of 18 at the time of committing the crime and were sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than five years should be sealed. After the criminal record is sealed, it shall not be provided to any unit or individual except for the needs of the judicial organs in handling cases or the inquiries made by the relevant units according to state regulations.

So there is no criminal record without criminal punishment.
